Place the protective cap (16) on the gel pad (15) so that the locking markings (17) on
the protective cap and gel pad are pointing towards each other. Then turn the protective
cap clockwise all the way.
The measuring tool should only ever be transported and stored with the protective cap
attached. If the gel pad becomes dirty, it will lose its adhesive strength.
Attaching with the Pin Pad
The substrate must be dry and firm.
Insert the pins into the recesses on the pin pad. Ensure that the pins are securely affixed
to the substrate.
Always remove the measuring tool once you have finished taking a measurement, or if
the substrate is being worked on in some manner (e.g. drilling, screwdriving, or hammer-
ing).
Operation
Starting Operation
Special Safety Instructions for Operation
Protect the measuring tool from moisture and direct sunlight.
u
Do not expose the measuring tool to any extreme temperatures or variations in
u
temperature. For example, do not leave it in a car for extended periods of time. In
case of large variations in temperature, allow the measuring tool to adjust to the ambi-
ent temperature before putting it into operation. The precision of the measuring tool
may be compromised if exposed to extreme temperatures or variations in temperat-
ure.
Avoid substantial knocks to the measuring tool and avoid dropping it. Damaging
u
the measuring tool can cause accuracy to be compromised. Calibrate the measuring
tool after it has been dropped or subjected to heavy impact. Check the laser line by
comparing it with a known horizontal or vertical reference line.
Switching On/Off
To switch on the measuring tool, briefly press the On/off button (1). The light-up
ring (2) flashes green three times when the battery has sufficient capacity.
The laser line lights up immediately after switching on the measuring tool.
Do not direct the laser beam at persons or animals and do not stare into the laser
u
beam yourself (even from a distance).
To switch off the measuring tool, briefly press the on/off button (1) again.
