1. Switch the tool on by pressing the on/off button.
NOTE The default mode set in the menu is then
displayed.
2. Select the scanning mode that suits the material to
be scanned.
3. Place the tool on the surface to be scanned and
then move it slowly and in a straight line, applying
light, even pressure to the wheels on the battery
compartment.
NOTE The results of the scan are displayed after
scanning a distance of at least 10 cm (3.9 in). Op-
timum results are achieved when a distance of 40 cm
(15.7 in) or greater is scanned.
NOTE Always move the tool over exactly the same
path, forward and back.
NOTE Avoid scanning long paths in order to keep
measurement errors as small as possible.
NOTE If you lift the tool off the surface during the
scan, the results of the last scan are still displayed.
The message "Hold" is shown in the sensor area of
the display. When you place the tool back on the
surface and continue to move it, or if you press the
scan button, a new scan will be started.
NOTE Always keep all 4 wheels in contact with the
surface being scanned. Do not scan over steps or
edges.
NOTE Do not touch the surface while making the
scan.
4. If no object is found, make a second scan perpen-
dicular to the path of the first scan.
5. If you wish to locate and mark a detected object
accurately, move the tool back until the object is
directly below the center line of the sensor area
display (see fig. A).
6. With the aid of the upper marking notch, mark the
position of the object on the surface scanned.
NOTE As the sensor area lies slightly below the
upper marking notch, this mark serves as a reli-
able indication only when the object detected runs
exactly vertically.
