Working safely with the measuring
tool is possible only when the
operating and safety information
are read completely and the instruc-
tions contained therein are strictly
followed.
labels on the measuring tool unrec-
ognisable. SAVE THESE INSTRUC-
TIONS.
Caution – The use of other operating or
adjusting equipment or the application of
other processing methods than those men-
tioned here, can lead to dangerous radiation
exposure.
The measuring tool is provided with two
warning labels in English (marked with
number 9 and 14 in the representation of the
measuring tool on the graphics page).
Do not direct the laser beam at
persons or animals and do not
look into the laser beam yourself.
This measuring tool generates laser
radiation from class 3R according to
IEC 60825-1. Looking directly into the
laser beam – even from a greater
distance cause damages to the eyes.
Do not use the laser viewing glasses as
safety goggles. The laser viewing glasses are
used for improved visualisation of the laser beam,
but they do not protect against laser radiation.
Do not use the laser viewing glasses as sun
glasses or in traffic. The laser viewing glasses
do not afford complete UV protection and reduce
colour perception.
Have the measuring tool repaired only
through qualified specialists using original
spare parts. This ensures that the safety of the
measuring tool is maintained.

warning
Avoid reflection of the laser beam on
smooth surfaces such as windows or mir-
rors. A reflected laser beam can also cause dam-
age to the eye.
The measuring tool should be operated only
by persons that are familiar with the han-
dling
of
laser
EN 60825-1, this includes, among other things,
the knowledge about the bioligical effects of the
laser to the eyes and the skin as well as the correct
usage of laser protection devices in order to avoid
dangers.
Do not operate the measuring tool in explo-
sive environments, such as in the presence
of flammable liquids, gases or dusts. Sparks
can be created in the measuring tool which may
ignite the dust or fumes.
Always set up the measuring tool in such a
manner that the laser beams run far above or
below eye level. This ensures that damage to the
eyes will not occur.
Make sure that the area of laser radiation is
monitored or shielded. The limitation of laser
radiation to controlled areas prevents eye damage
to persons not involved.
Mark the area in which the measuring tool is
being used with suitable laser warning
labels. This prevents persons not involved from
accessing the danger area.
Do not store the measuring tool at locations,
to which unauthorised persons have access.
Persons not familiar with the operation of the
measuring tool can cause harm to themselves and
to others.
When using a class 3R measuring tool,
observe possible national regulations. Non-
observance of these regulations can lead to injury.
Always set up the measuring tool level and
in a tilt-safe manner. When the measuring tool
falls over, it can become damaged and/or may
result in serious personal injury.
Before any work on the measuring tool and
during transport and storage, remove the
batteries/battery pack from the measuring
tool or disconnect it from the power supply.
Danger of injury when accidentally actuating the
On/Off switch.
Protect the battery pack against heat,
e.g., against continuous intense sun-
light, fire, water, and moisture. Danger
of explosion.
Keep the battery pack not being used away
from paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or
other small metal objects that can make a
connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may cause
burns or a fire.
