WARNINGS Read, understand, and follow these instructions to ensure safe
operation, Failure to observe these warnings can result in injury.
WARNING: LASER RADIATION. DO NOT STARE INTO BEAM. Class 2 laser.
- Exposing eyes to laser radiation can result in severe and permanent eye injuries. NEVER look directly into the laser beam emitted by this instrument.
- DO NOT use the instrument if it appears to be damaged.
- DO NOT modify the instrument in any way, as to do so could result in emission ofhazardous laser radiation than could result in severe eye injuries.
- DO NOT use optical equipment such as lenses, prisms, optical scopes, etc. to transmit, retransmit, or view the laser beam as this could result in severe eye injuries.
- This product should not be used by untrained operators or operators who have not read and fully understood the instructions.
- DO NOT remove warning labels from this instrument as this could result in serious personal injury and increases the risk of exposure to hazardous laser irradiation.
- This instrument is IP54 dust & water-resistant. Following any contact with water, thoroughly dry the instrument with a dry, lint-free cloth.
- There are no user-serviceable parts in this instrument.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
- POWERING ON: Press the Multifunction Button 1 to power on the display.
- POWERING OFF: Manual Power-Off: Press and hold the Multifunction Button 1 for 3 seconds. Automatic Power-Off: The device will automatically power off after 3 minutes of inactivity.
- SOUND CONTROL: Press the Multifunction Button 13 times to enter Sound Control Mode. Press the Multifunction Button to toggle between on and off. To exit Sound Control Mode, press and hold the Multifunction Button for 2 seconds.
- UNIT OF MEASURE: Press and hold the Multifunction Button 1 for 2 seconds to enter Unit of Measure Control Mode. Press the Multifunction Button to toggle between units. To exit Unit of Measure Control Mode, press and hold the Multifunction Button for 2 seconds.
- REFERENCE POINT (FIG. 2): Press the Multifunction Button 12 times to enter Reference Point Control Mode. Press the Multifunction Button to toggle between the reference points. To exit Reference Point Control Mode, press and hold the Multifunction Button for 2 seconds. When the Top Reference Point Indicator B1 displays on the LCD, the measurement will be taken from the top of the instrument. When the Bottom Reference Point Indicator B2 displays on the LCD, the measurement will be taken from the bottom of the instrument.
- SINGLE DISTANCE MEASUREMENT: To activate the laser, press the Multifunction Button 1. The Laser On Indicator A will blink. Press again to take and record a measurement. The last 3 measurements are stored and displayed on the screen F, G, H.
- CONTINUOUS MEASUREMENT: To activate the laser, press the Multifunction Button 1. When laser is activated, the device will automatically enter continuous mode and the Laser On Indicator A will blink until a single distance measurement is taken or the laser automatically times out (after 30 seconds). When the device is moved too fast to get an accurate measurement, “—–” is displayed. Slow down movement to record measurement.
ERROR MESSAGE TROUBLESHOOTING
- Low Battery (FIG. 3): Replace batteries as decribed in BATTERY REPLACEMENT section.
- Temperature Too High (FIG. 4): Use only in temperatures 32° to 104°F (0° to 40°C)**.
- Temperature Too Low (FIG. 5): Use only in temperatures 32° to 104°F (0° to 40°C)**.
- Low Signal (FIG. 6): Reflected laser beam signal does not reach Laser Distance Measure. Optimum target surfaces will have medium reflectivity, smooth surface, and reflect the laser beam directly to Laser Distance Measure.
- High Signal (FIG. 7): The signal exceeds the Laser Distance Measure reception range. This error can occur in bright light conditions due to additional natural or artificial light sources, as well as laser signal bouncing at maximum power into detector. Shiny, highly reflective surfaces could also cause this condition. Use caution to avoid eye exposure to strong reflected laser beam.
- Measurement Out Of Range (FIG. 8): Measure between 2″ (0.05m) and 100′ (30.5m).
Accuracy cannot be guaranteed outside of recommended temperature range.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
When the Battery Status Indicator C shows no bars and “CHAn bAtt”, is displayed (FIG. 3), the batteries must be replaced.
- Loosen screw 4 and remove Battery Cover 3.
- Remove and recycle spent batteries.
- Install two new AAA 1.5V alkaline batteries, noting proper polarity.
- Replace Battery Cover 3 and secure with screw 4. Do not overtighten.
CLEANING
Be sure instrument is turned off and wipe with a clean, dry lint-free cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
STORAGE Remove the batteries when the instrument is not in use for a prolonged period of time. Do not expose to high temperatures or humidity. After a period of storage in extreme conditions exceeding the limits mentioned in the General Specifications section, allow the instrument to return to normal operating conditions before using.
