Intended Use

The measuring instrument is intended for the measuring of distances as
well as for the determination and checking of horizontal or vertical lines.
Protection of the Instrument
Protect the instrument from moisture and direct sunrays.
s
Do not expose the instrument to extreme temperatures and tempera-
s
ture variations (e.g., do not leave in vehicles).
If the instrument is not used for a long period, the batteries must be
s
removed (danger of self-discharge and corrosion).
Protect the instrument from strong impacts and falls. Damage to the
s
instrument can degrade the accuracy.

Inserting/Replacing the Batteries

Use Alkali-Manganese batteries exclusively.
Open the battery compartment cover 14 and insert the batteries provided.
When inserting the batteries, pay attention to the correct polarisation.
If the symbol appears in the display 5, the batteries are exhausted and
must be replaced. When continuing to work with exhausted batteries, er-
roneous measurement by the instrument cannot be excluded.
When the batteries are empty, the symbol
and measuring is no longer possible.
Open the battery compartment cover 14 and replace the batteries. Pay
attention to correct polarisation.
Always replace all batteries at the same time. Use only batteries from a
single manufacturer and with the same capacity.

Putting into Operation

Before switching on, press the reel-in button 12 and completely rewind
the measuring tape.
Switching On/Off
When switched on, the instrument immediately emits a laser beam
s
from the outlet opening 8. Do not direct the laser beam at persons
or animals and do not look directly into the laser beam (espe-
cially not with optical instruments).
To switch on, press the on/off button 11. The laser is
then in operation and the display shown here appears.
The initial measured value is 0.8 cm (for Article Number
3 603 K07 0.. also 5/16") since a distance exists between the reference
points for length measurement (16 and 17) even with the measuring tape
completely rewound.
The error message shown here appears if the instru-
ment is switched on when the measuring tape 10 is not
rewound. Completely rewind the measuring tape with
the reel-in button 12. The instrument is then ready for use.
To switch off the laser, press the on/off button 11 again. The instru-
ment remains ready for measuring.
