A) The working range may be reduced by unfavourable environ-
mental conditions (e.g. direct sunlight).
B) Only non-conductive deposits occur, whereby occasional tem-
porary conductivity caused by condensation is expected.
The serial number (5) on the type plate is used to clearly identify your
measuring tool.

Inserting/Changing the batteries

It is recommended that you use alkaline manganese batter-
ies to operate the measuring tool.
To open the battery compartment cover (4), turn the locking
mechanism (3) clockwise to position
battery compartment cover. Insert the batteries.
When inserting the batteries, ensure that the polarity is cor-
rect according to the illustration on the inside of the battery
compartment.
To close the battery compartment cover (4), insert it below
the housing and then press it upwards into place. Turn the
locking mechanism (3) anticlockwise to position
the battery compartment cover in place.
If the batteries are running low, the laser beams will flash
slowly. The measuring tool can be operated for approx.
8 hours after the flashing starts.
Always replace all the batteries at the same time. Only use
batteries from the same manufacturer and which have the
same capacity.

avoid dropping it. Always carry out an accuracy check
3 × 1.5 V LR6 (AA)
before continuing work if the measuring tool has been

Switch the measuring tool off when transporting it.

Switching On/Off

To switch on the measuring tool, push the on/off switch (2)
upwards so that "I" is indicated on the switch. Immediately
after switching on, the measuring tool sends a laser beam
out of each outlet aperture (1).
Do not direct the laser beam at persons or animals and
u
do not stare into the laser beam yourself (even from a
distance).
To switch off the measuring tool, push the on/off switch (2)
downwards so that "0" is indicated on the switch. The pen-
dulum unit is locked when the tool is switched off.
Never leave the measuring tool unattended when
u
switched on, and ensure the measuring tool is
switched off after use. Others may be blinded by the
and remove the
laser beam.
Setting the automatic switch-off
The measuring tool automatically switches itself off after
20 min of operation.
The automatic switch-off can be set from 20 minutes to
eight hours. For this, switch the measuring tool on, then im-
mediately off, and then on again within 4 s. To confirm the
to lock
change, all laser beams will flash quickly for 2 s after switch-
ing on the second time.
When switching on the measuring tool the next time, the
automatic switch-off is set to 20 minutes again.

Automatic Levelling

Position the measuring tool on a level, firm surface or attach
it to the holder (8) or the tripod (16).
