 Remove the batteries from the measuring tool when not using it
for extended periods. When storing for extended periods, the batter-
ies can corrode and discharge themselves.
Operation

Initial Operation

 Protect the measuring tool against moisture and direct sun light.
 Do not subject the measuring tool to extreme temperatures or var-
iations in temperature. As an example, do not leave it in vehicles for
longer periods. In case of large variations in temperature, allow the
measuring tool to adjust to the ambient temperature before putting it
into operation.
 Avoid heavy impact to or falling down of the measuring tool. Dam-
age to the measuring tool can impair its accuracy. After heavy impact
or shock, compare the laser line with a known horizontal or vertical ref-
erence line.
Switching On and Off
To switch on the measuring tool, push the On/Off switch 16. Immediately
after switching on, the measuring tool sends a laser beam out of the exit
opening 9.
 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.
To switch off the measuring tool, push the On/Off switch 16 again.
 Do not leave the switched on measuring tool unattended and
switch the measuring tool off after use. Other persons could be
blinded by the laser beam.

Measuring Functions

Note: The specified levelling accuracy applies for the alignment of the la-
ser beam with reference to the spirit levels 6 and 7.
Positioning the Measuring Tool (see figure B)
For precise alignment with the spirit levels, the position of the measuring
tool is important.
The specified levelling accuracy is only achieved when the measuring tool
is correctly positioned:
