Work area safety
Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered
or dark areas invite accidents.
DO NOT operate the laser tool around
children or allow children to operate the
laser tool.
Serious eye injury could result.
DO NOT use measuring tools, attachments
and accessories outdoors when lightening
conditions are present.
Electrical safety
Batteries can explode or leak, cause injury
or fire. To reduce this risk, always follow all
instructions and warnings on the battery
label and package.
Remove the batteries from the tool when not
using it for extended periods.
When storing
for extended periods, the batteries can corrode
and discharge themselves.
DO NOT short any battery terminals.
DO NOT charge alkaline batteries.
DO NOT mix old and new batteries.
Replace all old batteries at the same time
with new batteries of the same brand and

Personal safety
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a tool.
Do not use a tool while you are tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication.
A moment of inattention while
operating a tool may result in serious personal
injury or incorrect measurement results.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye
protection.
Safety equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or
hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
DO NOT use the laser viewing glasses as
safety goggles.
The laser viewing glasses
are used for improved visualization of the laser
beam, but they do not protect against laser
radiation.
DO NOT use the laser viewing glasses as
sun glasses or in traffic.
The laser viewing
glasses do not afford complete UV protection
and reduce color perception.
DO NOT use any optical tools such as, but
not limited to, telescopes or transits to view
the laser beam.
Serious eye injury could result.
DO NOT stare directly at the laser beam or
project the laser beam directly into the eyes
of others.
Serious eye injury could result.
Use caution when using measuring tools in
the vicinity of electrical hazards.
Magnets
Keep the tool and laser
target away from cardiac
pacemakers.
The magnets of
the tool and laser target plate
generate a field that can impair
the function of cardiac
pacemakers.
Keep the tool and laser target away from
magnetic data medium and magnetically-
sensitive equipment.
The effect of the magnets of the tool and laser
target plate can lead to irreversible data loss.
Noise Information
Do not hold the measuring tool close to
your ear! Do not hold the measuring tool
closer than 1 meter from your ear when
using loud volume!
The A-weighted sound
pressure level of the audio signal at one meter
distance is 75-85dB(A). Serious injury could
result.
Use and care
Use the correct tool for your application.
The
correct tool will do the job better and safer.
Do not use the tool if the switch does not
turn it on and off.
Any tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.
Store idle tool out of the reach of children
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the
tool or these instructions to operate the tool.
Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
Maintain tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the
operation. If damaged, repair tool before
use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained tools.
Use the tool, accessories, etc., in
accordance with these instructions and in
the manner intended for the particular type
