READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS. Failure to follow all instructions listed
below, may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
CAUTION:
Use of controls or adjustments or perfor mance of procedures other than those speci-
fied herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
The laser guide radiation used in the laser distance measure attachment is Class
II with < 1mW and 630-660nm wavelengths.
Avoid direct eye exposure when using the laser and do not project the laser beam
directly into the eyes of others. Serious eye injury could result.
Do not remove or deface any prod uct labels. Removing product labels increases
the risk of exposure to laser radiation.

the laser beam intentionally or unintention ally. Serious eye injury could result.
Do not operate the laser distance measure around children or allow children to
operate the tool. Serious eye injury could result.
Always turn the laser distance measure off when not in use. Leaving the tool on
increases the risk of someone inadvertently staring into the laser beam.
Use the laser distance measure only as a measurement device.
Do not operate the instrument in com bustible areas such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gasses, or dust.
Always ensure the laser beam is aimed at a surface without reflective proper ties.
Shiny reflective materials are not suitable for laser use.
The laser shall be used and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions.
Never aim the beam at a person or object other than the target surface.
This product should not be used without the battery cover installed.
Handle the instrument with care. Treat it as you would any other optical device such

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not place battery products or their batteries near fire or heat. This will reduce
the risk of explosion and possibly injury.
Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not use a battery pack or charger
that has been dropped or received a sharp blow. A damaged battery is subject to
explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged battery immediately.
Batteries can explode in the presence of a source of ignition, such as a pilot
light. To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, never use any cordless product in
the presence of open flame. An exploded battery can propel debris and chemicals. If
exposed, flush with water immediately.
Do not charge battery tool in a damp or wet location. Following this rule will reduce
the risk of electric shock.
For best results, your battery tool should be charged in a location where the
temperature is more than 50°F but less than 94°F. To reduce the risk of serious
personal injury, do not store outside or in vehicles.
Under extreme usage or temperature conditions, battery leakage may occur. If
liquid comes in contact with your skin, wash immediately with soap and water.
If liquid gets into your eyes, flush them with clean water for at least 10 minutes,
then seek immediate medical attention. Following this rule will reduce the risk of
serious personal injury.
