tal conditions (e.g. direct sunlight). Safety notes DANGER OF SUFFOCATION! Packaging materials (e.g. films or polystyrene) can not be used as toys. Always keep children away from the packaging material. The packaging material is not a toy. Do not work with the measuring tool in an environment where there is a danger of explosion, where there are flammable liquids, gasses or dusts. Sparks can be created in the product, which could ignite dust or fumes.9 GB/IE/NI This product may be used by children from the age of 8, by per- sons of reduced physical, sensory or mental abilities or a lack of experience and / or knowledge if they are supervised or instructed with regard to the safe use of the product and have understood the risks resulting from use. Do not allow children to play with the product. Cleaning and user maintenance may not be carried out by children unless they are supervised. Do not leave the switched-on product unattended and switch the product off after use. Others could be blinded by the laser beam. Risk of eye injury. Do not expose the product to moisture or direct sunlight. Do not expose the product to extremely high temperatures or tem- perature fluctuations. For example, do not leave it in your car for a long time. In the case of large temperature fluctuations, let the product acclimatise before using it. In extreme temperatures or temperature fluctuations, the precision of the product can be impaired. Avoid strong impacts against the measuring tool. Damage to the measuring tool can impair its accuracy. After a strong impact com- pare the laser line with a known vertical or horizontal reference line to check it. Turn the measuring tool off when you transport it. When it is switched off the pendulum unit is locked, which otherwise can be damaged in strong movements. Do not bring the measuring tool near to heart pacemakers. The magnet inside the measuring tool creates a field that can impair the function of pacemakers. Keep the measuring tool away from magnetic data carriers and devices that are sensitive to magnetic influences. The effects of the magnet can lead to irreversible data losses.10 GB/IE/NI Protect yourself from laser radiation! LASER

max < 1 mW λ = 635 nm EN 60825-1:2014 Do not look directly into the laser beam or the laser beam opening

Viewing the laser beam with optical instruments (e.g. loupe, magnifying glass etc.) is associated with risk injury to the eyes. CAUTION! If operating or adjusting devices than other than those described here are used or other procedures are carried out, this can lead to dangerous radiation effects. Never direct the laser beam at people, animals or reflective sur- faces. Even looking briefly into the laser beam can cause damage to the eyes. Safety instructions for batteries / rechargeable batteries DANGER TO LIFE! Keep batteries / rechargeable batteries out of reach of children. If accidentally swallowed seek immediate medical attention.11 GB/IE/NI DANGER OF EXPLOSION! Never recharge non-re- chargeable batteries. Do not short-circuit batteries / re- chargeable batteries and / or open them. Overheating, fire or bursting can be the result. Never throw batteries / rechargeable batteries into fire or water. Do not exert mechanical loads to batteries / rechargeable batteries. Risk of leakage of batteries / rechargeable batteries Avoid extreme environmental conditions and temperatures, which could affect batteries / rechargeable batteries, e.g. radiators / direct sunlight. Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and mucous membranes. In the event of contact with battery acid, thoroughly flush the affected area with plenty of clean water and seek immediate medical attention. WEAR PROTECTIVE GLOVES! Leaked or damaged batteries / rechargeable batteries can cause burns on contact with the skin. Wear suitable protective gloves at all times if such an event occurs. In the event of a leakage of batteries / rechargeable batteries, immediately remove them from the product to prevent damage. Only use the same type of batteries / rechargeable batteries. Do not mix used and new batteries / rechargeable batteries. Remove batteries / rechargeable batteries if the product will not be used for a longer period. Risk of damage of the product Only use the specified type of battery / rechargeable battery! Insert batteries / rechargeable batteries according to polarity marks (+) and (-) on the battery / rechargeable battery and the product. Clean the contacts on the battery / rechargeable battery and in the battery compartment before inserting!12 GB/IE/NI Remove exhausted batteries / rechargeable batteries from the product immediately. Initial use Check that the delivery is complete and that there is no visible damage. Remove the packaging material from the product. Inserting / Changing batteries Open the battery compartment

Insert the batteries. Ensure that batteries are inserted correctly (polarity) according to the picture on the inside of the battery compartment. Close the battery compartment

Note: when the battery is low, the LED indicator

blinks red. Always replace all batteries at the same time. Only use batteries from the same manufacturer and with the same capacity. Remove the batteries from the product if it will not be in use for a prolonged period of time. In long periods of storage the batteries can corrode and can run themselves down. Switching on/off To switch the product on, push the LOCK switch

to the position . Immediately after being switched on, the product releases two laser lines from the laser beam opening

to the position . When switched off, the pendulum unit is locked. Use automatic levelling system To work with automatic levelling, place the product on a level, firm surface, or fasten it with the - tripod thread

to the tripod. When it is switched on, the automatic levelling system automati- cally corrects irregularities of ±4° within the self levelling area. The levelling is concluded when the laser lines stop moving and the LED indicator

goes green. If automatic levelling is not possible, e.g. because the base of the measuring tool deviates by more than 4° from the horizontal or because the product is being freely hand-held, the LED indicator

will go red and the horizontal and vertical laser lines will be switched off. Note: operation without automatic levelling will always be indi- cated via the red LED indicator

Note: if the product is agitated or its position is changed during operation, the product will automatically re-level. After re-levelling check the positions of the horizontal and vertical laser lines against reference points to avoid errors. Using individual lines and crossed lines When the product is performing automatic levelling and the base of the measurement device deviates from the horizontal by less than 4° (green LED on), carefully press the H-button

to turn the vertical line on or off. Crossed lines can be locked with this product: When the product is performing automatic levelling and the base of the measurement device deviates from the horizontal by less than 4° (green LED on) hold down the H-button

until the LED indica- tor

goes red. Now automatic levelling is switched off and the crossed lines are permanently switched on - even if the base of the measurement device deviates from the horizontal by more than 4°. You can turn this mode off again by pressing and holding down the H-button

until the LED indicator

goes green again. The au- tomatic levelling system has been switched on again. The crossed lines are turned off as soon as the base of the measuring tool deviates from the horizontal by more than 4°, and the LED indica- tor

will turn red again. Working without the automatic levelling system Put the LOCK switch

into the position . Hold down the H-button

until the red LED indicator

comes on. Now the product will release two laser lines from the laser beam opening

that are not levelled. Operation without automatic levelling will always be indicated via the red LED indicator

.15 GB/IE/NI Practical guidance Always use only the middle of the laser line for markings. The width of the line depends on the distance. Working with the tripod The tripod offers a stable, height-adjustable measurement base. Align - thread

of the tripod. Maintenance and cleaning The product requires no maintenance. ATTENTION! Never submerge the product in water or other liquid

Do not allow water to enter into the product during cleaning. Keep the product clean to ensure good, secure work. Use a dry cloth to clean the outside. Clean the laser beam opening

with a soft air jet. In cases of heavy contamination, remove the dirt with a slightly damp Q-tip. Do not exert any strong pressure!
