Working Advice

Only the centre of the laser point or laser line must be
u
used for marking. The size of the laser point/the width of
the laser line changes depending on the distance.
Working with the Tripod (Accessory)
A tripod offers a stable, height-adjustable support surface
for measuring. Place the measuring tool with the 1/4" tripod
mount (6) on the thread of the tripod (15) or a conventional
camera tripod. Use the 5/8" tripod mount (5) to secure the
measuring tool on a conventional building tripod. Tighten the
measuring tool using the locking screw of the tripod.
Roughly align the tripod before switching on the measuring
tool.
Securing with the universal holder (accessory)
You can secure the measuring tool, for example, on vertical
surfaces or magnetisable materials using the universal
holder (14). The universal holder is also suitable for use as a
floor stand and facilitates the height adjustment of the meas-
uring tool.
Keep your fingers away from the rear side of the mag-
u
netic accessory while attaching the accessory to sur-
faces. The strong pulling force of the magnets may jam
your fingers.
Roughly align the universal holder (14) before switching on
the measuring tool.
Working with the Laser Target Plate
The laser target plate (13) improves visibility of the laser
beam in unfavourable conditions and at greater distances.
The reflective surface of the laser target plate (13) improves
visibility of the laser line. The transparent surface enables
the laser line to be seen from behind the laser target plate.
Laser Goggles (Accessory)
The laser goggles filter out ambient light. This makes the
light of the laser appear brighter to the eye.
Do not use the laser goggles (accessory) as protective
u
goggles. The laser goggles make the laser beam easier to
see; they do not protect you against laser radiation.
Do not use the laser goggles (accessory) as
u
sunglasses or while driving. The laser goggles do not
provide full UV protection and impair your ability to see
colours.
Example applications (see figures A–D)
Examples of possible applications for the measuring tool can
be found on the graphics pages.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Keep the measuring tool clean at all times.

The areas around the outlet aperture of the laser in particular
should be cleaned on a regular basis. Make sure to check for
lint when doing this.

If the measuring tool needs to be repaired, send it off in the
case (17).
