Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)

The term electromagnetic compatibility is taken to mean the capa-
bility of the product to function smoothly in an environment where
electromagnetic radiation and electrostatic discharges are present
and without causing electromagnet interference to other equipment.
The RIDGID micro LM-100 conforms to all applicable
ECM standards. However, the possibility of it causing interference
NOTI E
in other devices cannot be precluded.

Installing Wrist Strap

Route small end of wrist strap through loop on micro LM-100 hous-
ing. Thread strap end through loop of small end and pull tight.

Changing/Installing Batteries

The micro LM-100 is supplied with batteries installed. If the battery
indicator is flashing, the batteries need to be replaced. Remove the
batteries prior to long term storage to avoid battery leakage. (Fig-
ure 5)
1. Use a Phillips head screw driver to loosen the battery compart-
ment cover screw and remove the cover.

2. Remove existing batteries.
3. Install two AAA alkaline batteries (LR03), observing the correct
polarity as indicated in the battery compartment.
Use batteries that are of the same type. Do not mix bat-
tery types. Do not mix new and used batteries. Mixing batteries can
NOTI E
cause overheating and battery damage.
4. Replace cover and tighten screw.

Pre-Operation Inspection

Before each use, inspect your distance meter and correct any
problems to reduce the risk of injury or incorrect measure-
ments.
Do not look into the laser beam. Looking into the laser beam
may be hazardous to the eyes.
1. Clean any oil, grease or dirt from equipment. This aids inspec-
tion.
2. Inspect the distance meter for any broken, worn, missing, mis-
aligned or binding parts, or any other condition which may pre-
vent safe and normal operation.
3. Check that the warning labels are present, firmly attached and
readable. (See Figure 6.)
4. If any issues are found during the inspection, do not use the
distance meter until it has been properly serviced.
5. Following the Operation Instructions, turn the distance meter
on, make a measurement and confirm the same measurement
with another instrument (tape measure, etc.). If the correlation
between the measurements is not acceptable, do not use the
distance meter until it has been properly serviced.
