Starting Operation
- Protect the measuring tool from moisture and direct sunlight.
- Do not expose the measuring tool to any extreme temperatures or fluctuations in temperature. For example, do not leave it in a car for extended periods of time. If it has been subjected to significant fluctuations in temperature, first allow the measuring tool to adjust to the ambient temperature and then always carry out an accuracy check before continuing work see Accuracy Check of the Measuring Tool.
The precision of the measuring tool may be compromised if exposed to extreme temperatures or fluctuations in temperature.
- Avoid substantial knocks to the measuring tool and avoid dropping it. Always carry out an accuracy check before continuing work if the measuring tool has been subjected to severe external influences see Accuracy Check of the Measuring Tool.
- Push the pendulum lock switch to the
position when you are transporting the measuring tool. This locks the pendulum unit, which may be damaged by strong movements.
Switching on/off
To switch on the measuring tool, press the on/off button (3). As soon as it is switched on, the measuring tool emits laser lines from the outlet apertures (1).
- Do not direct the laser beam at persons or animals and do not stare into the laser beam yourself (even from a distance).
To switch off the measuring tool, press the on/off button (3) until the status indicator (2) goes out. Slide the pendulum lock switch (4) into position to lock the pendulum unit.
- Never leave the measuring tool unattended when switched on, and ensure the measuring tool is switched off after use. Others may be blinded by the laser beam.
