INTENDED USE
Your XA laser distance measurer
has been designed for domestic use
only. it may be used for measuring
distances, lengths and heights.The
laser distance measurer can be used
indoors and outdoors.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury, the user
must read and understand the
operator’s manual.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING!
LASER RADIATION.
AVOID DIRECT
EYE EXPOSURE
DO NOT stare into the laser source.
Never aim light at another person or
object other than the workpiece.
The laser light can damage your
eyes.
Read all instructions. ailure to
follow all instructions listed below
may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury.
Do not direct the laser beam at
persons or animals and do not stare
into the laser beam yourself.
This laser complies with class 2
according to IEC 60825-1: 2014. Do
not replace the laser diode with a
different type. If damaged, have the
laser repaired by an authorised
repair agent.
Do not use the laser for any purpose
other than projecting laser lines.
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! Working safely with the
laser measurer is possible only
when the operating and safety
information are read completely and
the instructions contained therein
are strictly followed. Never make
warning labels on the product
unrecognizable.
Never aim the beam at a workpiece
with a reflective surface. Bright
shiny reflective sheet steel or similar
reflective surfaces are not
recommended for laser use.
Reflective surfaces could direct the
beam back toward the operator.
Take care to recognize the accuracy
and range of the device.
Measurement may not be accurate if
used beyond the rated range of the
device.
Use of controls or adjustments or
performance of procedures other
than those specified herein may
result in hazardous radiation
exposure.
The use of optical instruments with
this product will increase eye
hazards.
Do not allow children to use the
laser measurer without supervision.
They could unintentionally blind
other persons.

5
Have the laser measurer repaired
only through a qualified specialist
using original spare parts. This
ensures that the safety of the laser
measurer is maintained.
Do not point the laser beam at
persons or animals and do not look
into the laser beam yourself, not
even from a large distance.
Do not use laser viewing glasses as
safety goggles. Laser viewing
glasses are used for improved
visualization of the laser beam, but
they do not protect against laser
radiation.
SAFE OPERATING PROCEDURES
ALWAYS: Make sure that any
bystanders in the vicinity of use are
made aware of the dangers of
looking directly into the laser
measurer.
DO NOT remove or deface any
warning or caution labels. Removing
labels increases the risk of exposure
to laser radiation.
DO NOT stare directly at the laser
beam or project the laser beam
directly into the eyes of others.
Serious eye injury could result.
DO NOT place the laser measurer in
a position that may cause anyone to
stare into the laser beam
intentionally or unintentionally.
Serious eye injury could result.
DO NOT use any optical tools such
as, but not limited to, telescopes or
transits to view the laser beam.
Serious eye injury could result.
ALWAYS remove the batteries when
cleaning the laser light aperture to
laser lens.
DO NOT operate the laser measurer
around children or allow children to
operate the laser measurer. Serious
eye injury could result.
ALWAYS turn the laser measurer
“O ” when not in use. Leaving the
laser measurer “ON” increases the
risk of someone inadvertently
staring into the laser beam.
DO NOT operate the laser measurer
in combustible areas such as in the
presence of flammable liquids,
gases or dust.
ALWAYS position the laser measurer
securely. Damage to the laser
measurer and/or serious injury to
the user could result if the laser
measurer falls.
ALWAYS use only the accessories
that are recommended by the
manufacturer of your laser
measurer. Use of accessories that
have been designed for use with
other laser measurer could result in
serious injury.
DO NOT leave laser measurer “on”
unattended in any operation mode.

6
ALWAYS repair and servicing must
be performed by a qualified repair
facility. Repairs performed by
unqualified personnel could result in
serious injury.
DO NOT use this laser measurer for
any purpose other than those
outlined in this manual. This could
result in serious injury.
DO NOT disassemble the laser
measurer. There are no user
serviceable parts inside.
Disassembling the laser will void all
warranties on the product. Do not
modify the product in any way.
Modifying the laser measurer may
result in hazardous laser radiation
exposure.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING! Batteries can explode or
leak, and can cause injury or fire. To
reduce this risk:
ALWAYS follow all instructions and
warnings on the battery label and
package.
DO NOT short any battery terminals.
DO NOT charge alkaline 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.
DO NOT mix battery chemistries.
DISPOSE of batteries per local code.
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.
I PORTANT NOTE
During daylight or if the target has
poor reflection properties, please
use a target plate.
In favourable conditions (good target
surface properties, room
temperature), the device can reach
up to rated measuring range.
In unfavourable conditions, such as
intense sunshine, poorly reflecting
target surface (black surface) or high
temperature variations, the deviation
over 10m of distance may increase.

AINTENANCE
This instrument is designed to
provide years of dependable service,
if the following care instructions are
performed:
Keep the laser measurer dry and
free from dust.
Use and store the laser measurer in
nominal temperature conditions.
Temperature extremes can shorten
the life of the electronic parts and
distort or melt plastic parts.
Handle the laser measurer carefully
and avoid shock and vibration.
Dropping the meter may damage the
electronic parts or the case.
Keep the laser measurer clean. Wipe
the case occasionally with a damp
cloth. DO NOT use chemicals,
cleaning solvents, or detergents.
Use only fresh batteries of the
correct type.
Remove old or weak batteries so
they do not leak and damage the
unit.
If the laser measurer is to be stored
for long periods, the batteries should
be stored separately to prevent
damage to the unit.

17
RECYCLING AND DISPOSAL
Recycle unwanted materials instead
of disposing of them as waste. All
tools, hoses and packaging should
be sorted, taken to the local
recycling centre and disposed of in
an environmentally safe way.
Recycle rather than dispose of
unwanted material in landfill
whenever possible. The machine
must be delivered in rigid packaging
to avoid damage during
transportation. The packaging and
the machine itself are manufactured
from recyclable materials and
should be disposed of accordingly.
Only dispose of electrical/
electronic/battery terms in separate
collection schemes, which cater for
the recovery and recycling of
materials contained within. Your
cooperation is vital to ensure the
success of these schemes and for
the protection of the environment.
Recycle packaging where facilities
exist.
This symbol is known
as the Crossed out
Wheelie Bin Symbol.
When this symbol is
marked on a product or
battery, it means that it
should not be disposed of with your
general household waste. Some
chemicals contained within
electrical/electronic products or
batteries can be harmful to health.
SERVICE
Now that you have purchased your
tool, should a need ever exist of
repair or service, simply contact
your nearest XA Authorised Service
Centre or other qualified service
organisation. Be sure to provide all
pertinent facts when you call or visit.
