Work area safety

Keep  your  workplace  clean  and  well lit. Cluttered or poorly lit work-places  invite  accidents.
Do not operate the product in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence  of  flammable  liquids,  gases  or dust.
Keep children and other persons clear when the product is in use.
Use the product only with-in its specified limits.
Comply with  your  national  accident  prevention regulations.

Electrical safety

Do not expose the product to rain or moisture. Penetrating moisture can cause short circuits, electrical shock, burns or explosions.
Wipe  the product dry before stowing it in the transport container.

Personal safety

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating the product. Do not use the product while you  are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating the product can result in serious personal injury.
Avoid unusual  body positions. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
Wear personal protective equipment. Wearing personal protective equipment reduces the risk of injury.
Do not render safety devices ineffective and do not remove information and warning notices.
Avoid  accidental  starting.  Make sure that the product is switched off  before inserting batteries and before picking it up or carrying it.
 Use the product and accessories in accordance with these instructions and in the way specified for this  special type of tool. Take the working conditions and the work to be performed into account. Use of products for applications different from those intended could result in hazardous situations.
Do not allow yourself to be lulled into a false sense of security  and do not flout the safety rules, even if you are familiar with the product after using it many times. Careless handling could cause serious injury within fractions of a second.
Do not use the product in proximity to medical devices.

Using and handling the product

Use  the  product  and  accessories  only  when  they  are  in  perfect  working  order.  ٠ Store products out of reach of children  when not in use. Do not allow persons who are not familiar with the product or these instructions to operate it. The product is dangerous if used by inexperienced persons.
Maintain the product carefully. Check that  moving parts operate satisfactorily and do  not jam, and make sure that no parts are  broken or damaged in such a way that the  product might no longer function correctly.  Have damaged parts repaired before using the product. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained products
Do not under  any circumstances modify or tamper with  the product. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Hilti may restrict the user’s authorization to operate the product.
Check the accuracy of the product before  using it for important measurements, and if  it has been dropped or subjected to other  mechanical stresses.
Due to the measuring principle employed, the results of measurements can be negatively affected by certain ambient conditions. These include, for example, the proximity of devices that pro-
duce strong magnetic or electro-magnetic fields, vibrations and temperature changes.
Rapidly  changing  measuring  conditions  can  falsify  the  results.
When  the  product is brought into a warm environment  from very cold conditions, or vice-versa, al-low it to become acclimatized before use. Big differences in temperature can lead to incorrect operation and incorrect results.
When adapters or accessories are used,  make sure they are mounted securely.
The product is designed for the tough conditions of jobsite use, but as with other optical and  electrical products (e.g. binoculars, spectacles, cameras) it must be handled with care.
The specified operating and storage temperatures must be observed.

Additional safety instructions

Laser radiation in excess of Class 1 can be emitted if the product is opened with-out correct procedure being followed. Have the product repaired only by Hilti Service. ٠ Never aim the product against the sun or other powerful light sources.
Do not aim the laser at other persons and do not aim it at bare skin at close range.
Switch the product off when it is not in use.
Do not use the product in very bright conditions. The arc cast by the laser must remain visible. Darken or shade the working area if necessary.
Check the accuracy of the product if it has been dropped or subjected to other mechanical stresses.
Keep the laser aperture clean to avoid measurement errors.
Comply with national health and safety requirements.

Electromagnetic compatibility

Although the product complies with the strict requirements of the applicable directives, Hilti cannot entirely rule out the possibility of interference to the product caused by powerful electromagnetic radiation, possibly leading to incorrect operation. Check the accuracy of the device by taking measurements by other means when working under such conditions, or if you are unsure.

Likewise, Hilti cannot rule out the possibility of interference with other devices (e.g. aircraft navigation equipment).

Careful handling and use of batteries

Remove the batteries from the product if it is to remain unused for a lengthy period of time. Batteries can corrode and self-dis- charge during prolonged storage.

Do not allow batteries to overheat and do not expose them to fire. Batteries can explode and release toxic substances.
Do not attempt to charge non-rechargeable batteries.
Do not sol-der batteries into the product.
Do not discharge batteries by short-circuiting. Batteries can develop a leak, explode, catch fire and injure persons.
