u
Have the measuring tool serviced only by a qualified specialist using only ori-
ginal replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the measuring tool is
maintained.
u
Do not use the measuring tool in explosive atmospheres which contain flam-
mable liquids, gases or dust.
Sparks may be produced inside the measuring tool,
which can ignite dust or fumes.
u
The measuring tool may not be 100 % accurate for technological reasons. To
eliminate hazards, familiarise yourself with further sources of information, such
as building plans and photographs taken during construction, etc. before carry-
ing out any drilling, sawing or routing work on walls, ceilings or floors.
The accur-
acy of the measuring tool may be affected by environmental influences, such the level
of humidity or there being other electronic devices nearby. The structure and condi-
tion of the walls (e.g. damp, building materials containing metal, electrically conduct-
ive wallpaper, insulating materials, tiles) and the number, type, size and position of
the objects may distort the measuring results.
u
Make sure that you are properly earthed when taking measurements.
If you are
not properly earthed (e.g. by wearing insulating footwear or by standing on a ladder),
it will not be possible to locate live cables.
u
If there are gas pipes in the building, check to ensure that none of them have
been damaged after completing any work on walls, ceilings or floors.
u
Live wires can be detected more easily when power consumers (e.g. lamps, appli-
ances) are connected to the wire being sought and switched on.
Switch off power
consumers and make sure that live cables are de-energised before drilling, saw-
ing or milling into walls, ceilings or floors. After performing any kind of work,
check to ensure that objects placed on the base material are not live.
u
When attaching objects to dry walls, and in particular when attaching them to
the substructure, check to ensure that both the wall and the fastening materials
have a sufficient load-bearing capacity.
