Deleting Measured Values
Pushing the delete button 1 deletes the last individual
measuring value determined in all measuring functions.
Pushing the button repeatedly deletes the individual
measured values in reverse order.
Memory Functions
When switching off the measuring tool, the value in the
memory is retained.
Storing/Adding Measured Values
Push the memory add button 3
in order to store the current
measured value – a length, area
or volume value, depending on
the current measuring function.
As soon as a value has been
stored, "M" is indicated in the
display and the "+" behind it
briefly flashes.
If a value is already stored in the memory, the new value
is added to the memory contents, however, only when
the measures of unit correspond.
As an example, when an area value is in the memory
and the current measured value is a volume value, the
addition cannot take place. "ERROR" briefly flashes in
the display.
Subtracting Measured Values
Push the memory subtraction button 2 in order to sub-
tract the current measured value from the memory value.
As soon as a value has been subtracted, "M" is indi-
cated in the display and the "–" behind it briefly flashes.
If a value is already stored in the memory, the new
measured value can be subtracted only when the
measures of unit correspond (see "Storing/Adding
Measured Values").
Displaying the Stored Value
Push the memory retrieve but-
ton 11 in order to display the
value stored in the memory.
"M=" is indicated in the display.
When the memory contents
"M=" is indicated in the display,
it can be doubled by pushing
the memory add button 3 or set to zero by pushing the
memory subtract button 2.
Deleting the Memory
To delete the memory contents, first push the memory
retrieve button 11 so that "M=" is indicated in the dis-
play. Then push the delete button 1; "M" is no longer
indicated in the display.

Operating Instructions
The reception lens 20 and the laser beam outlet 19
must not be covered when taking a measurement.
The measuring tool must not be moved while taking a
measurement (with the exception of the continuous
measurement function). Therefore, place the measuring
tool, as far as this is possible, against or on the meas-
uring points.
Measurement takes place at the centre of the laser
beam, even when target surfaces are sighted at an
incline.
The measuring range depends upon the light condi-
tions and the reflection properties of the target surface.
For improved visibility of the laser beam when working
outdoors and when the sunlight is intense, use the laser
viewing glasses 22 (accessory), or shade off the target
surface.
When measuring against transparent surfaces (e.g.
glass, water) or reflecting surfaces, faulty measure-
ments are possible. Also, porous or structured sur-
faces, air layers with varying temperatures or indirectly
received reflections can affect the measured value.
These effects are due to physical reasons and can
therefore not be excluded by the measuring tool.
Sighting with the Alingment Aid (see figure G)
With the alignment aid 7, sighting over larger distances
is a lot easier. For this, look alongside the aligning aid
on the top side of the measuring tool. The laser beam
runs parallel to this line of sight.
Measuring with the Positioning Pin
(see figures B and H)
The positioning pin 14 is suitable for measuring out of
corners (diagonal within a space) or from hard to reach
areas, such as from roller-shutter rails.
Slide the latch 15 of the positioning pin sideward in
order to swivel out the pin.
Set the corresponding reference level for measure-
ments with the positioning pin by pushing button 10.
The positioning pin 14 swivels back in again by pushing
it toward the housing to the stop. The pin automatically
locks in place.
Working with the Tripod
The use of a tripod is particularly necessary for larger
distances. The measuring tool can be screwed onto a
commercially available tripod using the 1/4" thread 21
on the bottom side of the housing.
Set the corresponding reference level for measurement
with a tripod by pushing button 10 (the reference level
is the thread).
