Working Advice

A tripod offers a stable, height-adjustable support surface for measuring. Place the measuring tool with the 1/4" tripod mount (6) on the thread of the tripod (18) or a conventional camera tripod. Tighten the measuring tool using the locking screw of the tripod.

Roughly align the tripod before switching on the measuring tool.

You can secure the measuring tool to magnetisable materials or vertical surfaces using the built-in magnetic rotating mount (3).

Attachment options for the rotating mount (3):

  • Using the magnets (5), it can be attached to magnetisable materials (see figure C)
  • Using a commercially available fastening screw, it can be attached via the fastening slot (4) to wood.
  • Keep your fingers away from the rear side of the magnetic rotating mount while attaching the rotating mount to surfaces. The strong pulling force of the magnets (5) may jam your fingers.

Roughly align the magnetic rotating mount (3) before switching on the measuring tool.

If you switch off and transport the measuring tool, click it back into place on the rotating mount (see figure D).

The laser goggles filter out ambient light. This makes the light of the laser appear brighter to the eye.

  • Do not use the laser goggles (accessory) as protective goggles. The laser goggles make the laser beam easier to see; they do not protect you against laser radiation.
  • Do not use the laser goggles (accessory) as sunglasses or while driving. The laser goggles do not provide full UV protection and impair your ability to see colours.
