Operation

1. Point the laser at the top of the tool (Figure A #1) toward the wall whose distance you need to measure (Figure D #1).
2. Click (Figure A #3) to display a laser dot on the wall (Figure D #1) and measure the distance from the bottom of the tool to the wall (Figure D #2).
3. At the bottom of the display window (Figure A #2), view the current measurement (Figure E #3), which will keep changing as you move the tool (in Continuous Measure mode).
4. When the bottom of the tool is positioned at the correct distance from the wall, click to take the current measurement on the display window (Figure E #3).

Changing the Unit of Measure

Once the current measurement is taken, you can change the unit of measure from decimal ft (6.21 ft) to fractional ft (6’02″9/16), fractional ft to meters (1.894 m), meters to inches (74 9/16 in), or inches to decimal ft. To change the unit of measurement, press and hold until you see the measurement change (2-3 seconds).
NOTE: If you continue to hold after the measurement changes, the tool will turn off.

Re-measuring

If you need to take a new measurement, click .

• The previous measurement (Figure E #2) will appear above the new current measurement (Figure E #3).
• When you are ready to take the new current measurement, click . Turning Off the Tool

• Press and hold for 4 seconds (until the display window clears).
• If you do not use the tool for 180 seconds, it will automatically turn off.

Specifications

*** Measuring Accuracy depends on the current conditions :**

•     Under favourable conditions (good target surface and room temperature) up to 33ft (10m).

•     Under unfavourable conditions (bright sunlight, a very weak reflecting target surface, or large temperature fluctuations),

the error can increase by ± 0.003 in/ft (± 0.25 mm/m) for distances over 33ft (10m).
