Do not expose the measuring tool to extreme temperatures or
variations in temperature. As an example, do not leave it in vehicles
for longer periods. In case of large variations in temperature, allow
the measuring tool to adjust to the ambient temperature before
putting it into operation. In case of extreme temperature or variations in
temperature, the accuracy of the measuring tool can be impaired.
Avoid heavy impact to or dropping the measuring tool. After severe
exterior effects to the measuring tool, it is recommended to carry out
an accuracy check (see "Accuracy Check and Calibration of the angle
measurement" and "Accuracy Check of the Length Measurement" on
page 25) each time before continuing work.
For switching on the measuring tool, the following possibilities are given:
1. Press the On/Off button 4: The measuring tool is switched on and is in
length measurement mode. The laser is not activated.
2. Pressing the measuring button 2: Measuring tool and laser are
switched on. The measuring tool is in length measurement mode.
When the measuring tool is inserted in the measuring rail 26, the angle
measurement function is activated.
even from a long distance.
