Do not look into the laser beam. Looking into the laser beam may be
hazardous to the eyes.
1. Make sure the unit is OFF.
2. Clean any oil, grease or dirt from the equipment. This aids inspection and
helps prevent the tool from slipping from your grip.
3. Inspect the tool:
• For any broken, worn, missing or binding parts or any condition which
may prevent safe and normal operation.
• Confirm that battery compartment cover is properly secured.
• Check that the markings and warning label are present, firmly attached
and readable.
If any issues are found during the inspection, do not use the tool until it has
been properly serviced.
4. Verify the distance meter operation.
• Following the Set-Up and Operation Instructions, Turn the unit ON and con-
firm that the Low Battery icon is not ON.
• Make a measurement and confirm the same measurement with another
instrument (tape measure, etc.). If the correlation between the measure-
ments is not acceptable, do not use the distance meter until it has been
properly serviced.
5. Do not use the distance meter if it operates abnormally. When in doubt, have
the meter serviced.
