Wet, smooth or high-gloss surfaces
1 Aiming at a "flat" angle deflects the laser beam. The
DISTO may receive a signal that is too weak (error
message 255).
2 If aiming at a right angle, the DISTO may receive a
signal that is too strong (error message 256).
Inclined, round surfaces
Can be measured with the laser.
Requirement: There is enough area on the target surface
for the laser spot.
Free-handed aiming
(approx. 20 - 40 m):
Use target plate 563875 (DIN C6) rsp. 723385 (DIN A4).
•
White surface: to 30 m
• Brown surface: from 30 m on

The person responsible for the instrument must ensure
that all users understand these directions and adhere to
