All target points must be vertical or horizontal on

the surface of the wall.

The best results are achieved when the intrument

is rotated around a fixed point (e.g. the stop

bracket is fully extended and the instrument is

placed against a wall).

To take the measurement, the minimum/

maximum function can be called up. The minimum

value is used for measurements that must be at

right-angles to the target; the maximum distance

is used for all other measurements.

FCC statement (applic. in U.S.)

4.37 x 1.69 x 0.90 in

This equipment has been tested and found to comply

Operation

(32°F to +104°F)

This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio

frequency energy and, if not installed and used in

accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful

interference to radio communications.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will

not occur in a particular installation.

If this equipment does cause harmful interference to

radio or television reception, which can be deter-

mined by turning the equipment off and on, the user

is encouraged to try to correct the interference by

one or more of the following measures:

* Use a target plate to increase the measurement range

during daylight or if the target has poor reflection properties!

** in favourable conditions (good target surface properties,

room temperature) up to 10 m (33 ft). In unfavourable condi-

tions, such as intense sunshine, poorly reflecting target

surface or high temperature variations, the deviation over

distances above 10 m (33 ft) can increase by 0.15 mm/m

(

0.0018 in/ft).

Electromagnetic Compatibility

(EMC)

The term "electromagnetic compatibility" is taken to

mean the capability of the product to function

smoothly in an environment where electromagnetic

radiation and electrostatic discharges are present,

and without causing electromagnetic interference to

other equipment.

•

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

Increase the separation between the equipment

and receiver.

•

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit

different from that to which the receiver is

connected.

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV

technician for help

by aversion responses including the blink reflex.

WARNING

Looking directly into the laser beam with

optical aids (e.g. binoculars, telescopes) can be

hazardous.

For the position of the type plate see drawing {J}.

Precautions:

Do not look directly into the beam with optical aids.

CAUTION:

Looking into the laser beam may be hazardous
