To reduce the risk of injury or damage, read these safety instructions carefully and
keep them at hand when setting up, using, and maintaining this instrument.
•
The instrument weighs about 7.5 kg. Always use the handle to carry the instrument. When
transporting the instrument longer distances, use the case.
•
This instrument is not a toy. Do not sit or stand on this instrument. Do not place anything
on top of this instrument (except a power bank).

Do not turn the instrument while standing. The rubber ring of the rear wheel could slip off
the wheel and jam it.
•
You may use a power bank any time, but do not start a measurement while an USB cable
is plugged.
•
Make sure that the instrument can move along the entire path without obstruction. Do
not start a measurement while the instrument is placed on a table or a place where it
could fall down.

Do not touch the wheels, especially the driven front wheels while the instrument is mov-
ing.

The instrument can be operated on wet surfaces. However, avoid standing water and
splash water. Never moisten the top side of the test foot (see page 21) and do not sub-
merge the test foot.
•
To avoid wheel slip, clean the wheels’ rubber rings before starting a measurement. Use a
cloth dampened with water or a mild cleaning detergent.
•
The wheels’ rubber rings are made of a special anti-slip material. As they leave marks on
the surface, put the instrument back in its case after use.

Do not open the instrument. Contact your distributor in case of damage or failure.
Do not dispose of electrical appliances as unsorted municipal waste; use separate
collection facilities. Contact your local authority for information regarding the col-
lection systems available. If electrical appliances are disposed of in landfills or
dumps, hazardous substances can leak into the groundwater and get into the food
chain, damaging your health and well-being. When replacing old appliances with new ones,
the retailer is legally obliged to take back your old appliance for disposal at least free of charge.
