• Do not operate the measuring tool
in explosive environments, such
as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dusts (sparks can
be created in the measuring tool which
may ignite the dust or fumes)
• Keep the measuring tool away from
cardiac pacemakers (the magnet
inside the measuring tool generates
a field that can impair the function of
cardiac pacemakers)
• Keep the measuring tool away
from magnetic data media and
magnetically-sensitive equipment
(the effect of the magnet can lead to
irreversible data loss)
EXPLANATION OF SYMBOLS ON
TOOL
2 Read the instruction manual before
use
3 Do not dispose of electric tools and
batteries together with household
waste material
4 Laser radiation / Do not stare into
beam / Class 2 laser product
USE
• Inserting/replacing the batteries 5
- alkali-manganese batteries are
recommended for the measuring
tool
- do not use rechargeable batteries
- remove cover A
- insert 2 x AAA batteries (pay
attention to correct polarisation)
- always replace all batteries at the
same time
- only use batteries from one brand
and with the identical capacity
- mount cover A
- remove the batteries from the
measuring tool when not using
it for extended periods (when
storing for extended periods,
the batteries can corrode and
self-discharge)
• Battery level indicator 6
- during use the battery level indicator
on the display indicates the
remaining battery capacity
• On/off
- press and hold main button B to turn
on the tool
! the laser beam is automatically
activated when the tool is turned
on
- press main button B briefly to turn
on/off the laser beam
! with the laser beam turned off,
the tool will automatically turn
off after 5 minutes of inactivity
- press and hold main button B to turn
off the tool
• Projecting on walls
- mark the point where the laser line
should be projected
- place the wall mount base H with
the marked point centered in the
viewing window K
- mounting options:
1) use adhesive putty (included) on
surfaces L 7 a or use tape (not
included) to mount base on dry and
clean surfaces 7 b
- the adhesive putty may used
repeatedly
- to keep good adhesion, wash the
putty frequently and store it in the
adhesive putty storage S
- remove the wall-mount base from
the wall slowly after using, any
residue of the adhesive putty on the
wall can be cleaned by rolling the
adhesive putty over the residue
2) use pins (not included) through
pin holes N to mount base on soft
materials (plasterboard, soft wood)
7 c
! be aware of sharp pins
3) use a screw or nail (not included)
through viewing window / screw
hole K to mount base 7 d
4) use the magnet in base to mount it
on ferrous metals 7 e
- attach tool to wall mount base
! ensure that clip ring J clips into
slot G on bottom of the tool
- rotate tool freely to the desired
angle 8
• Projecting on floors
- when projecting a laser line on the
floor the digital angle indictation
shows ---
- use the protractor M to adjust the
laser line to any angle
- attach the wall mount base H to the
protractor M as illustrated 9
- attach tool to wall mount base
