USE
• Mounting of battery 3
- use exclusively alkaline-manganese or rechargeable
batteries
- remove cover H
- insert 9V battery (pay attention to correct
polarisation)
- mount cover H
- when battery level is low, symbol J 1 will appear in
display
- when symbol J 1 appears in the display for the fi rst
time, measuring is still possible but with reduced
accuracy; replace the battery
- always remove the battery from the tool, if the tool

• On/off
- switch on/off the tool by pressing "On/Off" button A 1
- after approximately 5 minutes without button
actuation or angle change, the measuring tool
automatically switches off to preserve battery life
• Measuring angles 4
! protect the measuring tool against impact and
shock (dropping or banging the tool may lead to
faulty measurements)
! keep the contact edges of the measuring tool
clean (debris particles may lead to faulty
measurements)
- position base leg F 1 and fold-out leg G 1 against
the edges to be measured
- the reading in display C 1 corresponds with angle X
and remains unchanged until the legs are moved
! when directly projecting a measured angle onto a
workpiece, pay attention that base leg F and fold-
out leg G are not moved and that the retaining
("HOLD") mode is not switched on
• Retaining measured values
- the current reading can be retained in display C 1 by
pressing "HOLD" button B 1 (symbol K 1 will
appear in display)
- the reading remains unchanged (even when the legs
are moved) until "HOLD" button B is pressed again
! be aware that the retaining mode also
automatically switches off after 5 minutes of
inactivity
APPLICATION ADVICE
• Use "HOLD" button B 1 for defi ning angles at hard-to-
reach and/or dark places where measuring and reading
cannot take place simultaneously
• Use bubble level D 1 or E 1 for defi ning angles when
only one reference point is available 5
