Digital angle finder
INTRODUCTION
• This measuring tool is intended for digitally measuring
and defining angles from 0° to 220° (horizontal and
vertical)
• Read this instruction manual carefully before use and
save it for future reference 2

SAFETY
• All instructions must be read and observed in order
to work safely with the measuring tool 2
• Have the measuring tool repaired only through
qualified specialists using original spare parts (this
ensures that the safety of the measuring tool is
maintained)
• Do not operate the measuring tool in explosive
environments, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dusts (sparks can be created in the
measuring tool which may ignite the dust or fumes)
• When using the angle information provided by this
tool to cut workpieces, always strictly observe the
safety and working instructions of the saw being
used, including those for positioning and clamping
the workpiece (when the required angles can not be set
on a certain saw or saw type, alternative sawing methods
will need to be applied; extremely acute (sharp) angles
can be cut using a taper jig with a table saw or a circular
saw)

USE
• Mounting of battery 4
- use exclusively alkaline-manganese or rechargeable
batteries
- remove cover H
- insert 9V battery (pay attention to correct polarisation)
- mount cover H
- when battery level is low, symbol J 1 will appear in
display
- when symbol J 1 appears in the display for the first
time, measuring is still possible but with reduced
accuracy; replace the battery
- always remove the battery from the tool, if the tool will
not be used for a long period
• On/off
- switch on/off the tool by pressing "On/Off" button A 1
- after approximately 5 minutes without button actuation
or angle change, the measuring tool automatically
switches off to preserve battery life
• Measuring angles 5
! protect the measuring tool against impact and
shock (dropping or banging the tool may lead to faulty
measurements)
! keep the contact edges of the measuring tool clean
(debris particles may lead to faulty measurements)
- position base leg F 1 and fold-out leg G 1 against
the edges to be measured
- the reading in display C 1 corresponds with angle X
and remains unchanged until the legs are moved
! when directly projecting a measured angle onto a
workpiece, pay attention that base leg F and
fold-out leg G are not moved and that the
retaining ("HOLD") mode is not switched on
• Retaining measured values
- the current reading can be retained in display C 1 by
pressing "HOLD" button B 1 (symbol K 1 will appear
in display)
- the reading remains unchanged (even when the legs
are moved) until "HOLD" button B is pressed again
! be aware that the retaining mode also
automatically switches off after 5 minutes of
inactivity
APPLICATION ADVICE
• Use "HOLD" button B 1 for defining angles at hard-to-
reach and/or dark places where measuring and reading
cannot take place simultaneously
• Use bubble level D 1 or E 1 for defining angles when
only one reference point is available 6
MAINTENANCE / SERVICE
• Always keep the tool free of dust, moisture and direct
sunlight
• Clean the tool with a dry, soft cloth (do not use cleaning
agents or solvents)
