Product Manual

2. After selecting the desired unit of measure and reference position,

aim the Laser Distance Meter so that the laser dot is on the selected

target to measure the length of the hypotenuse. Hold the Laser

Distance Meter so that the bottom edge of the tool is roughly

horizontal for the most accurate results.

3. Keep your position stable and press the button. The angle

measured will appear above the main display.

4. A length result will be shown on the main screen, and the triangle

in the Pythagoras Measurements indicator will flash one leg of the

triangle. The measurement result shown corresponds to that length

of the triangle you measured (height, width or hypotenuse). Press the

or buttons to toggle through the different sides of the

triangle.

5. Press the button to clear the display and take your next 1-Point

Pythagoras measurement.

Stake-out Measurement Mode

The Stake-out mode is used when it is necessary to measure a

repeating distance interval, such as when installing fence posting

every 8 feet. It is important to have the volume enabled when

using the stake-out mode, as the tool will beep to guide you to

the correct distance.

To use the Stake-out mode:

1. Set your desired unit of measurement and measurement

reference position, as described earlier in this manual.
