Eyes instinctively turn by visual or blink action to protect the eyes.
Warning:
Looking straight into the laser beam through the optical lens (such as the eyepiece, telescope, etc.) will do harm to the eyes. prevention measures: Don’t look straight into the laser beam through lenses.
Caution:
With your eyes looking straight into the laser beam will do harm to the eyes. Preventive measures: Don’t look straight into a laser beam. Pay attention to make the laser beam on the eyes or below the shot. (especially in the instrument fixed under the condition of mechanical equipment quality).

Battery

The Install/replace the battery

  1. Open the fixed damper at the end of the instrument.
  2. Install the battery correctly according to the polarity.
  3. Close cell lifted the lid. When the display screen shows a sign of battery, replace the battery in time.
    • Please use alkaline batteries.
    • When the instrument is not used for a long time, please take out the battery, in order to avoid corrosion of the battery.

Warning : Do not puncture batteries or throw them in fire as they may explode. Do not attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries (alkaline). Dispose of batteries in accordance with local regulations. Keep batteries away from children.

 Menu features

Set the distance measurement unit.
Per long time press, this button can switch on the demand of measuring unit, the selection of the following units, m (*), ft (ft), in (inches), ft + / in (ft – in – 1/16).
Buzzer

Long press this button, switch to activate the beep.

Continuous laser

  • Click this button to open this function, until the icon continues to display in the screen. Click the button again to measure. Long press the button, shut down the instrument, and continuous laser. In continuous laser mode, the instrument will automatically shut down the laser after 30 seconds.

Operation

Startup and shutdown

  • Press the key twice to initiate the instrument until the screen illuminates.
  • A long press this button to turn off the instrument, in the absence of any operating conditions, the instrument automatically shuts down after 3 minutes.

Delete data

  • Click this button the last measured data will be deleted. In instrument measurement records, each set of measurements can be deleted step by step when click this button.

Setting the measurement reference edge

  • The default reference edge setting of the instrument is the trailing edge. When the screen displays icon.
  • Press and set the measurement reference edge to the leading edge. The screen will display, press a key again, and return the setting of the trailing edge as the base edge.

Electronic level

  • The product comes with an electronic horizontal function, and the angle value of the instrument will change with the swing of the instrument in standby mode. The angle range is 0-360 degrees.

Measurement

A single distance measurement

  • start laser. Press the button again, and trigger measurements. Measurement results are displayed immediately on the screen.
    Maximum/minimum distance measurement
    This feature enables users to set out from a measurement point, and measure the maximum or minimum distance. Such as: Measuring the spacing, diagonal distance measuring room (the maximum measured value) or horizontal distance (minimum measured value) or maximum differential value of the minimum value.

  • hold the button until you hear beep. By sweeping a laser large area around the measurement target (such as a corner).

  • click this button, stop continuous measurement. The corresponding maximum or minimum measured values will be displayed on screen, and the last measured values as shown in the screen.

Function

Addition/Subtraction Distance measurement

  • Short press, the previous measurement plus the next measurement. Once again a short press, the previous measurement minus the next measurement.
    The whole process is repeated as needed, and the measurement result will be displayed in the main display screen, while the previous measurement result will be displayed in the second line.

  • the last step will be restored. This function can also be applied to area and volume.

Surface

  • Press the key once. An icon will be displayed on the screen.
  • Click this button for the first length (Depth).
  • Click this button again for the second length (Width).
    Measurement results will be displayed on the main screen.

Volume

  • Press the key twice in succession, Icon will be displayed on a screen
  • click this button for the first length measurement (Depth).
  • Click this button again for the second length (Width). Measurement results will be displayed on the main screen.
  • click this button again for the third length measurement (Height). The volume will be displayed on the main display.

Storage

  • Press the key five times in succession, and enter the measurement record. The press can inquire about history.

Indirect measurement

  • This instrument can calculate distance automatically by using Pythagorean law. This feature is especially designed for measuring the place which is not easy to reach.
     Please comply strictly with the following:

  • All measuring points must be within the same horizontal or vertical plane. In order to achieve the best effect of measurement, it is recommended that the instrument be fixed in one spot, from the point of rotation measurement (such as: the instrument on a wall). Make sure that the first measurement and the two sides to be measured are vertical. Measure the Maximum/minimum distance as “Maximum/minimum distance measurement”.

  • Indirect measurement – by an auxiliary measure to determine a distance such as: Measuring the height of a building. It is recommended to use a tripod-aided measurement. Three consecutive presses and then the icon is shown on the display. At this time the laser is on.

  • aim at the top of the spot (1) to measure, at the same time, (1) and the vertical distance between the horizontal plane (h) will

Indirectly – through two auxiliary measurements to determine the distance

  • Press four times, an icon will be displayed on the screen and the laser is on at the same time.If the horizontal distance is measured, it will be fixed together and the distance can be confirmed by pointing the light point to points (1) and point (2).
  • Press this button to the hypotenuse (1) to measure; Then the measurement data (1) will be displayed on the LCD screen.
  • Press this button again to the hypotenuse (2) to measure; At this point the vertical distance (h) between (1) and (2) will be

User Guidelines

  • Under a favorable working environment, the measurement error is about ± 2mm. If the working environment is not ideal (strong sunlight, excessive temperature difference, or large surface reflection of the measured object), the maximum measurement error of the equipment will increase.

Measuring distance

  • The maximum measuring distance is 50 meters. In the evening, at dusk or in the shadow of the target, the range will be increased if the target is not suitable. Please use the target when the sunlight or target reflection is not good.

The surface of the measured object

  • When the measured object is a colorless liquid (such as: water), clean glass, such as the characteristics of the surface has a transparent object, may cause error of measurement. When the measured object has a very strong reflection, laser can be reflected off, thus leading to errors of measurement. Measuring surfaces without reflection or very dark can increase the measuring time.

Cleaning and Maintenance

  • Wipe the device regularly with a moist, lint-free cloth. Do not use alcohol or solvents. DO NOT submerge the device in any liquid.
  • Store the meter in a dry place away from humidity and vibrations.
  • Remove the battery when the meter is to be stored for long periods of time.
