Assembly
Inserting/Replacing the Batteries
Alkali-manganese batteries are recommended for the measuring tool.
To open the battery lid 9, press on the latch 12 and fold the battery lid up. Insert
the batteries. When inserting, pay attention to the correct polarity according to
the representation on the inside of the battery compartment.
Always replace all batteries at the same time. Only use batteries from one brand
and with the identical capacity.
 Remove the batteries from the measuring tool when not using it for
extended periods. When storing for extended periods, the batteries can
corrode and self-discharge.
Operation
Initial Operation
 Protect the measuring tool against moisture and direct sun light.
 Do not subject the measuring tool to extreme temperatures or variations
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 hard knocks to the measuring tool or dropping it. Damaging the
measuring tool can cause accuracy to be compromised. Following a hard
knock or fall, carry out a check by comparing the laser lines or plumb beams
with a known horizontal or vertical reference line or verified perpendicular
points.
Switching On and Off
To switch on the measuring tool, briefly press the On/Off switch 1. Immediately
after switching on, the measuring tool sends out the two laser lines at 0° and 90°.
 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 1 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.
To save energy, only switch the measuring tool on when you are using it.
Working Advice
 Always place the measuring tool level on the floor or fasten it plane
against the wall. When placing down or fastening unevenly, the angle will not
be precisely 90°.
 When laying floor tiles, do not use spirit levels 3 and 5 for levelling of the
measuring tool. Spirit levels 3 and 5 are used only for alignment against
walls. When laying floor tiles, the bubbles of the spirit levels can be within the
marks, without the measuring tool being level.
 Always use the centre of the laser line for marking. The width of the laser
line changes with the distance.
 Never use the laser lines that the measuring tool standing on the floor
projects on the wall for alignment. The measuring tool is not self-levelling.
Therefore, the line on the wall is distorted.
 The reference point for alignment of tiles is the intersecting point P of
the laser lines, directly in front of the measuring tool. To project an
angle, the measuring tool must be rotated at this intersecting point, see
figure E.
