Safety Notes
Read and observe all instructions. SAVE THESE IN-
STRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
Keep the measuring tool away from cardiac pace-
makers. The magnet plate 4generates a field that
can impair the function of cardiac pacemakers.
fKeep the measuring tool away from magnetic data medium
and magnetically-sensitive equipment. The effect of the mag-
net plate 4can lead to irreversible data loss.
fHave the measuring tool repaired only through qualified spe-
cialists using original spare parts. This ensures that the safety
of the measuring tool is maintained.
fDo not operate the measuring tool in explosive 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.
fRead and strictly observe the safety warnings in the operating
instructions of the rotational laser.

Assembly
Inserting/Replacing the Battery
Alkali-manganese batteries are recommended for the measuring tool.
Press the latch 9of the battery lid outward and open the battery
lid 11.
When inserting the battery, pay attention to the correct polarity ac-
cording to the representation on the inside of the battery compart-
ment.
When the battery indication cappears for the first time on the dis-
play 7, the measuring tool can still be operated for approx. 3 h.
fIf the measuring tool is not used for a long period of time, the
battery must be removed. The battery can corrode or discharge
itself over long periods.
Operation
Initial Operation
fProtect the measuring tool against moisture and direct sun
light.
fDo not subject the measuring tool to extreme temperatures or
variations in temperature. As an example, do not leave it in ve-
hicles for longer periods. In case of large variations in tempera-
ture, allow the measuring tool to adjust to the ambient temper-
ature before putting it into operation. In case of extreme
temperatures or variations in temperature, the accuracy of the
measuring tool can be impaired.
Position the measuring tool at least 50 cm away from the rotational
laser level. Position the measuring tool in such a manner that the
laser beam can reach the reception area 6. Set the highest rotation-
al speed on the rotational laser level.

Switching On and Off
fA loud audio signal sounds when switching on the measuring
tool. “The A-weighted sound pressure level of the audio signal
at a distance of one meter is 95 dB(A).”
fDo not hold the measuring tool close to your ear! The loud au-
dio signal can cause hearing defects.
To switch on the measuring tool, press the On/Off button 1. Two
audio signals sound and all display indicators light up briefly.
To switch off the measuring tool, press the On/Off button 1again.
When no button is pressed on the measuring tool for approx.
10 minutes and when no laser beam reaches the reception area 6
for 10 minutes, the measuring tool automatically switches off in or-
der to save the battery. The switching off is indicated by an audio
signal.
Selecting the Setting of the Centre Indicator
With button 2, you can specify with which accuracy the position of
the laser beam is indicated as central on the reception area:
– “Fine” adjustment, (indication gon the display),
– “Medium” adjustment, (indication bon the display).
An audio signal sounds when the accuracy setting is changed.
Whenever switching on the measuring tool, the accuracy level “me-
dium” is set.
