Installing the Battery
Ensure laser on/off switch (A) is in the full off position by moving laser
button to "O" position. Remove the battery compartment cover (M). Insert 3
fresh 1.5 volt AA alkaline batteries making sure to match (+) and (-)
terminals correctly. Replace battery compartment cover.
WARNING: Batteries can explode, or leak, and can cause injury or
fire. To reduce this risk:
• Carefully follow all instructions and warnings on the battery label and
package. • Always insert batteries correctly with regard to polarity (+ and
-), marked on the battery and the equipment. • Do not short battery
terminals. • Do not charge batteries. • Do not mix old and new batteries.
Replace all of them at the same time with new batteries of the same brand and type. •
Remove dead batteries immediately and dispose of per local codes. • Do not dispose
of batteries in fire. • Keep batteries out of reach of children. • Remove batteries if the
device will not be used for several months.
"Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery terminals inadvertently
come in contact with conductive materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like.
The US Department of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR) actually
prohibit transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes (i.e. packed in suitcases
and carryon luggage) UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. So
when transporting individual batteries, make sure that the battery terminals are
protected and well insulated from materials that could contact them and cause a short
circuit."
OPERATION
TURNING ON THE MEASURER:
• Press the "on/off" button (G).
• The LCD screen will turn on. The BDL500S is now ready to start taking a measurement.
TO TAKE A MEASUREMENT:
NOTE: The BDL500S is accurate to +/- 1/16 inch within 10 feet. For maximum
accuracy the unit must be moved in a straight line; at a slow, steady speed on a
smooth, clean surface. It is best to view the LCD screen at eye level.
• Press one of the 3 reference buttons (C) (left side C1, right
side C3, or center C2 of the unit) to indicate the part of the unit
that is aligned with the start of measurement.
• Place the unit at the start of the distance to be measured.
• Press the "clear" button (D), to start the measurement at zero.
• Roll the unit along the distance to be measured.
• Press one of the 3 reference buttons (C) (left, right, or center)
to indicate the ending point for the measurement.
At any time during the measurement, you can set or change the reference.
The selected reference will be shown on the LCD screen. The unit will continue to
measure and will display the current measurement to the selected reference.
At any time you can stop and start rolling, or change directions, and the unit will
continue to measure a positive distance from the starting point.
At any time, you can press "clear" to start the measurement again at zero.
ACCU-SPACING (EQUAL SPACING):
• Take a measurement of a wall on which you want to hang equally spaced items (See "To
Take A Measurement" above - set start reference, press clear, roll the unit, set end
reference C1, C2 or C3).
• Press the accu-spacing button (E) once for every item to hang or equally
space. 3 items, press the button 3 times up to a total of 9 items.
• The number being displayed in the upper left hand corner of the screen shows
the number of pictures or items to be placed (1, 2, 3... etc.).
• Roll the unit back toward the start point of the measurement.
• When the unit gets within about 3 inches of the required spacing
point it will beep slowly and it will indicate the direction toward the
point with an arrow on the LCD screen. Once it is at the exact
spacing point it will indicate 1 of 3 on the LCD screen. Mark this point
with a pencil through the center hole of the unit.
