Avoid heavy impact to or falling down of the measuring tool. After
severe exterior effects to the measuring tool, it is recommended to car-
ry out a check (see "Checking the Measuring Tool", page 23) each time
before continuing to work.
Switching On and Off
To switch on the measuring tool, push the On/Off switch 1 toward the
rear. When switching on the measuring tool, the laser beam is switched
on. The LASER indicator flashes on the display.
To switch off the measuring tool, push the On/Off switch 1 toward the
front.
Measuring Procedure
After the measuring tool is switched on, continuous measurement takes
place. Aim the laser beam at the target surface. The current measuring
value g is displayed in the bottom line of the display (see figure A). During
continuous measurement, the measuring tool can be moved relative to
the target, whereby the current measuring value g is updated approx. eve-
ry 0.5 seconds in the bottom line of the display (see figure B). In this man-
ner, as an example, you can move a certain distance away from a wall,
while the actual distance can always be read. The LASER indicator flashes
on the display.
The rear edge of the measuring tool is the reference level for the measure-
ment ( ).
For a wall to wall measurement, as an example, position the measuring
tool with its rear edge against the initial wall.
Do not point the laser beam at persons or animals and do not look
into the laser beam yourself, not even from a large distance.
"HOLD" Function (see figure B)
Press the "HOLD" button 2 to stop the measur-
ing procedure. The laser beam is switched off
and the HOLD indication appears on the dis-
play. The current measuring value is still dis-
played in the bottom line of the display, but is
no longer continuously updated.
