Working Advice
- Only the centre of the laser line must be used for marking. The width of the laser line changes depending on the distance.
Using the holder (16), you can attach the measuring tool to various objects up to 10 to 60 mm thick, e.g. to vertical or horizontal boards or pipes.
Loosen the fastening screw (15) of the holder, position the holder in the desired location and retighten the fastening screw.
Place the measuring tool with the tripod mount (8) on the 1/4" screw (13) of the holder and tighten it to secure it on the holder applying moderate force. Do not tighten the measuring tool firmly as this could cause damage.
Roughly align the holder before switching on the measuring tool. To do this, loosen the locking screw (14). Move the measuring tool into a horizontal position at the required height (with the tripod mount (8) facing down). Retighten the locking screw.
You can also mount the measuring tool on the holder using the adapter plate (3).
A tripod offers a stable, height-adjustable support surface for measuring. Place the measuring tool with the 1/4" tripod mount (8) on the thread of the tripod (6) 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 also mount the measuring tool on the tripod using the adapter plate (3).
The adapter plate (3) makes it easier to accurately align the measuring tool with a reference point and enables you to quickly attach and detach the measuring tool.
The adapter plate (3) can be mounted on the holder (16) or tripod (6).
- Holder: Place the adapter plate with the 1/4" mount (1) on the screw (13) of the holder and tighten it to secure it on the holder applying moderate force.
Note: Loosen the locking screw (14) of the holder if you want to change the position of the measuring tool. If the adapter plate is turned without loosening the locking screw, the adapter plate can become loose and the measuring tool can fall off. - Tripod: Tighten the locking screw of the tripod in the 1/4" mount (1) of the adapter plate.
Press the measuring tool into the adapter plate (3) so that the locking mechanisms of the adapter plate engage in the holes on two sides of the measuring tool. The adapter plate can be fastened to the bottom, back and top side of the measuring tool.
Check that the measuring tool is firmly secured.
When the adapter plate is mounted on the back, the height of the measuring tool can be aligned. When it is mounted on the top or bottom, the measuring tool can be aligned sideways. Turn the fine adjustment screw (2) of the adapter plate to align the laser line with a reference point.
