GENERAL LASER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE

TOOL!

WARNING

LASER

RADIATION.

Do

not stare into beam. Class II laser

product. Turn the laser beam on only

when using this tool.

Do not remove or deface any

product labels.

Avoid direct eye exposure.

The laser

beam can cause ash blindness.

Do not operate the tool around children

or allow children to operate the tool.

Do not

place the tool in a position

that may cause anyone to stare at the

laser beam, whether intentionally or

unintentionally.

Do not use on surfaces such as

sheet steel that have shiny, reective

surfaces. The shiny surface could

reect the beam back at the operator.

Always turn the laser tool off

when not in use.

Leaving the tool

on increases the risk of someone

inadvertently staring into the laser

beam.

Do not attempt to modify the

performance of this laser device in any

way. This may result in a dangerous

exposure to laser radiation.

and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,

may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,

there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular

installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to

radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning

the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct

the interference by one or more of the following measures:

5

•

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

•

Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

•

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from

that to which the receiver is connected.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

To reduce the risk of re, personal injury,

and product damage due to a short

circuit, never immerse your tool or charger in uid or allow

a uid to ow inside it.

Corrosive or conductive uids, such as

seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and bleach or bleach

containing products, etc., can cause a short circuit.

Charge The Tool

NOTE:

The tool is shipped partially charged; charge the battery

before rst use.

Optimum performance can be reached by recharging the tool

for approximately 2.5 hours after use. It is not recommended to

recharge the tool for more than 24 hours after each use.

a. Insert the USB interface of the USB charging cable into the USB

port of the USB wall adapter (not included).

b. Insert the charging plug into charging port of the tool, making sure

that they are properly connected. (FIG. 2)

c. Connect the wall adapter (together with USB charging cable) to

the power outlet. The tool will turn on automatically. The battery

indicator will begin to icker on the LCD display to indicate that

the tool is charging.

14

When charging is complete, the full-battery indicator will appear

on the LCD screen. Remember to remove the USB charging cable

from tool. If the USB charging cable remains connected to the tool,

the tool will turn off approximately after half an hour.

Turn The Tool On And Off

Press the Main Button to turn on the tool. Press and hold the Main

Button for 1 second to turn off the tool.

WARNING

The laser will be automatically activated when

the tool is turned on.

DO NOT place the

measuring tool in a position that may cause anyone to stare into the

laser intentionally or unintentionally. Serious eye injury could result.

NOTE:

When the tool is inactive for 3 minutes (after the laser has

turned off) in any mode except the digital leveling mode, it will

automatically turn off to save battery power. When in the digital

leveling mode, the tool will automatically turn off after 6 minutes

of inactivity, which is dened as the deviation (both positive and

negative) angle range not exceeding 1.5°.

15

Change The Measure Mode

Press the UP or Down Arrow Button to scroll through the following

modes:

•

Single-distance measurement

•

Area measurement

•

Real-time measurement

•

Indirect measurement

•

NOTE:

The tool defaults to feet and inches before the rst use.

Press and hold the Main Button to turn on the tool. Continue holding

for more than 2 seconds until the desired unit of measurement

(feet/inch or meters) is displayed on the screen (FIG. 3). When the

desired unit of measurement appears on the screen, release the

Main Button. After releasing the button, the tool turns itself on and

subsequent measurements will be displayed in the selected unit.

NOTE:

Faulty measurements cannot be excluded when measuring

to different surfaces.

Among the problematic surfaces are:

•

Transparent surfaces (e.g., glass, water)

•

Reective surfaces (e.g., polished metal, glass)

•

Porous surface (e.g., insulation materials)

•

Structured surfaces (e.g., roughcast, natural stone)

If required, use a laser target plate (not included) on these surfaces.

Furthermore, faulty measurements are also possible when sighting

inclined target surfaces.

Air layers with varying temperatures or indirectly received reections

can affect the measured value.

NOTE:

When error messages occur in the LCD display, press any

button to go back to the initial measurement display.

NOTE:

When entering into the modes involve of distance

measuring, the distance measurement will be taken from the

Distance Reference Base of the tool.

Single-Distance Measurement

a. Turn on the tool; the tool will default to the single-distance

measurement mode and the LCD will display “Distance” on the

lower right. The laser will turn on automatically and the laser

indicator will blink. (FIG. 4)

b. Aim the laser at the target to which you want to measure.

Press the Main Button to take a measurement. The resulting

measurement will be displayed on the LCD screen and the laser

will turn off automatically (FIG. 4).

Area Measurement

a. Press UP Arrow Button or Down

Arrow Button to change the

mode to the area measurement.

The LCD will display “Area” on

the lower right (FIG. 6).

b. Press the Main Button to turn

on the laser if it is turned off; the

laser indicator will blink.

c. Position the tool to aim the laser

dot at the target representing the

rst dimension that you want to measure (e.g., length).

d. Press the Main Button to display the measured length in the rst

row of the screen.

e. Position the tool to aim the laser dot at the target representing the

second dimension that you want to measure (e.g., width).

Real-Time Measurement

The real-time measurement function can be used for transferring

measurements, e.g., from construction plans. In the real-time

measure mode, the tool can be moved relative to the target and

will continuously update the displayed distance to the target as

the tool is moved. For example, the user can move from a wall to

a predetermined distance, during which time the actual, changing

measurement is displayed continuously.

a. Press UP Arrow Button or Down Arrow Button to change the

mode to the real-time measurement. The LCD will display “Real-

Time” on the lower right (FIG. 8).

b. Press the Main Button to turn on the laser if it is turned off; the

Laser Indicator will blink.

c. Press the Main Button to take the measurement; the beeper is

activated and the tool sounds.

d. Move the tool until the required distance value is indicated at the

lower row on the LCD screen (FIG. 8).

NOTE:

Press the Main Button to stop the real-time measurement

during 3 minutes of operation.

Press the Main Button again to make a new measurement.

NOTE:

When the laser is inactive for 20 seconds, it will

automatically turn off
