3. Position the tool to aim the laser dot at the
target to which you want to measure.
4. Press key to display the measured length
in the first row of the
screen. The width line
in the
icon will
also start to blink.
5. Position the tool to
aim the laser at the
target.
6. Press key again
to display the width
in the second row of
the screen. The
height line in the
icon will start to
blink.
7. Press key again
to display the volume
in the lowest row of
the screen; the height
will be displayed at the same time in the third
row of the screen.
8. Press key to make a new measurement.
SINGLE PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM MEASU-
REMENT MODE
The Pythagorean Theorem measurement
mode is used to measure distances that can-
not be measured directly because an obstacle
would obstruct the laser beam or no target
surface is available as a reflector. Correct re-
sults are achieved
only when the la-
ser beam and the
sought distance
form a precise right
angle (right angle).
In the illustrated
example the length
BC is to be determi-
ned. For this purpo-
se, AB and AC must be measured. AC and BC
must form a right angle.
1. Press
key to choose single Pythagorean
Theorem measurement mode the blinking line
in
indicates the distance AB to be measu-
red.

2. Press key to turn
on the laser beam;
the laser indicator
blinks
Position the tool to
aim the laser at the
target B.
3. Press key display
the measured length
of AB in the first row of the screen.
4. The blinking line in
indicates the distan-
ce AC to be measu-
red.
5.Without changing
the tool position A,
aim the laser dot per-
pendicularly to the
target C.
6. Press key again
to display the calcula-
ted length of BC in
the lowest row of the screen; the distance AC
will be displayed at the same time in the se-
cond row.
7. Press key to
make a new measure-
ment.
NOTES:
• The distance AC
should be shorter
than the hypotenu-
se (AB); otherwise
the LCD will display
“ERR08” reminding you to re-measure the dis-
tance AC.
• When taking the two measurements, make
sure they are taken from the same starting
point (A) and the second measurement is per-
pendicular to the target C. Taking the measu-
rements correctly will help result in the most
accurate calculated distance.
DOUBLE PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM
MEASUREMENT
Use the double Pythagorean measurement
mode when one end of the length to be
measured indirectly is higher than the mea-
surement position and the other end of that
