General Care, Safety And Storage

General safety rules

a)Check the condition of the tool before use.

b)The user must check the accuracy of the tool after it has been dropped or subjected to other mechanical stresses.

c)Although the tool is designed for the tough conditions of jobsite use, as with other measuring instruments it should be treated with care.

Do not use prisms or mirrored surfaces

Distances can be measured from all stationary targets without a highly reflective surface, i.e. concrete, stone, wood, plastic, paper, etc. The use of prisms or other highly reflective targets is not permissible and, if attempted, may falsify the results.

Calibration Check

It is recommended to occasionally check the calibration of the tool.

1)Select a known measure distance about 1 to 5 meters (3 to 15 ft) that does not change over time.

2.) Measure the distance 10 times. Calculate the mean deviation from the actual distance. The measured mean deviation should be less than the typical accuracy tolerance of ± 1.5 mm (± 1/16 in)

Cleaning and drying

1.Blow dust off the lens.

2.Do not touch the lens with the fingers.

3.Use only a clean, soft cloth for cleaning. If necessary, moisten the cloth slightly with pure alcohol or a little water.

NOTE Do not use any other liquids as these may damage the plastic components.

Storage

The temperature limits for storage of your equipment must be observed, especially in winter / summer.

Remove the tool from its pouch if it has become wet. The tool, its carrying case and accessories should be cleaned and dried (at maximum 40°C). Repack the equipment only once it is completely dry. Check the accuracy of the equipment before it is used after a long period of storage or transportation.

Transport

Use the original packaging or packaging of equivalent quality for transporting or shipping your equipment.

CAUTION

Always remove the batteries before shipping the tool.
