Angle
(Fig. 8)
The digital
level measures
any angle in degrees,
up to
0.1° accuracy.
If the sound
button
is turned
on, the level
will beep at the 0°, 45 ° , 90 ° ,
and last saved angle.
Push the convert
button
to
change
the display
to Angle
mode (Z o).
Slope
(Fig. 9)
The digital level measures the
percent slope of a surface.
This is useful when laying pipe
for proper drainage. When the
display is in the slope mode,
it will measure the surface
in
percent, with exact level at
0.0%. If the sound is turned
on, the level will beep at 0.0%
and 100%.
Push the convert
button to
change the display to Slope
mode (%).

ABSOLUTE
AND RELATIVE ANGLE MEASUREMENTS
Absolute
angle measurement
1. Place the digital level on a working surface with the base flat against the surface.
2. When level power is turned on, the display indicates the absolute angle
between "level" and the working
surface. The zero line indicates the level
position, and the arrow indicates
the direction
of the working
surface
either
above or below level.
3. To activate the beeper, push the beeper button. The beeper will sound when
the level is at 0 ° (level), 45 °, 90 ° (plumb), and last saved angle. To deactivate
the beeper, push the button a second time.
4. To save the measured
angle in the memory, press the hold button. This
level can remember
the last nine measurements.
To display the data in
the memory, press the memory recall button to recall the recorded
angles.
The level will display the data, starting with the most recent measurements
and going backwards
to the earliest in its memory. The measurements
are
indicated
as M9 through M1, with M1 being the first measurement
taken.
5. To take a new measurement,
press the hold button to return to
measurement
mode.
Relative angle measurement
The relative angle mode allows you to measure the difference
between two
different surface
angles.
1. Place the digital level on Surface
1.
2. The LCD screen indicates
the absolute angle between
true level and the
Surface
1.
3.
4.
Press the ZERO button to activate the relative-angle
measurement
mode. The
current angle will be considered
to be 0.0 ° and the display will read 0.0%
Place the digital level on Surface
2, and the relative angle between
Surface
1 and Surface 2 will be displayed.
The zero line indicates
the Surface
1
position,
and the arrow indicates the orientation
of Surface
2, either above or
below Surface
1.
5. At this point you can change the display units for the measured angle from
degrees (o), to pitch (inch/foot), or slope (%) by pressing the convert button.
This digital level has been designed
to be a low-maintenance
tool. However, in
order to maintain
its performance,
follow these directions:
Handle the tool with care. Treat it as a precision
optical device, such as a
camera or binoculars.
Avoid exposing
the tool to shock,
continuous
vibration,
or extreme hot or cold
temperatures.
Store the tool indoors and in a safe place.
The Level is designed
to be weather
resistant and construction-site
tough. If
the level is splashed
with mortar or other construction-site
residue, simply
wipe it clean with a damp cloth.
Do Not immerse the level in water.
Aluminum
surfaces
can be cleaned with a non-abrasive
powder.
Remove the batteries from the tool if it is not going to be used for an
extended
period.
Do not attempt to take the level apart.
