DIGITAL ANGLE GAUGE
EN
Works great for miter saws and table saws.
Accurately sets saw blade bevel angle.
SAFETY FIRST
• Always turn off and unplug your power tools before using your digital
angle gauge. Never operate power tools without blade guards.
Instructions below do not show guards.
BATTERY
• Insert battery (following polarity indication) by opening the slot cover
on the backside of the gauge (Fig. 4).
ON/OFF BUTTON
1. Press ON/OFF once to turn LCD backlight on, display will show gures
in absolute mode (ABS). Press and hold ON/OFF for 3 seconds to turn
it off.
2. Keeping the gauge idle for 10 seconds will cause the backlight to turn
off. To turn it on again, press ON/OFF or simply move the gauge.
3. Keeping the gauge idle for 5 minutes will cause it to shut off. Press
ON/OFF to turn it on again.
4. If the device is tilted excessively on the short side (>30°), an "Error"
message will appear.
ABSOLUTE AND RELATIVE MEASURING
1. Turn gauge on, press ZERO to set display to 0.0°. Relative measuring
mode is selected.
2. To switch to absolute measuring mode, press ON/OFF once. When
using the absolute measuring mode, the "ABS" symbol will show on
the display.
3. Absolute measuring mode calculates the angle between the starting
at surface and the end point. Relative measuring mode calculates the
distance between 2 intermediate points (Fig. 1).

▲/▼ ICON FUNCTION
ABS: The symbols ▲/▼ indicate the side to tilt the instrument (where
the angle is smaller) to return to 90°
ZERO: The symbol ▲ indicates that the displayed angle is measured from
the horizontal plane upward, while the symbol ▼ indicates that it is
measured from top down relative to the horizontal plane.
CALIBRATION
Calibrate gauge in case of accidental falling, damages or angle faults
only.
1. Place gauge on a at surface, press ON/OFF and ZERO at the same
time until "-1" shows (Fig. 2).
2. Short press ON/OFF. "-1-" should be ashing until "-2-" shows (Fig. 3).
3. Turn gauge backward 180°, press ON/OFF. "-2-" should be ashing for
a while (Fig. 4).
4. When ashing is over, calibration is completed (Fig. 5).
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE WITH SAW BLADE
1. Set gauge on a at surface such as a table saw and miter saw.
2. Turn on gauge and press ZERO on a surface. Display will show 0.0°
(Fig. 6).
3. Attach gauge to your saw blade or jointer blade. The magnetic base
will keep the gauge in position (Fig. 7). Make sure gauge is kept
perpendicular to the table (Fig. 8).
4. Gauge on properly adjusted tools will display 90° (Fig. 9).
5. Now you can press ZERO to set gauge to 0.0° and measure the angle
of your cutting tool (Fig. 10 and 11).
