Under some circumstances the laser
dot is not visible, for example over
pipes. In this case, using a transpar-
ent plate enables the laser dot to be
seen and then easily aligned to the
center of the pipe.
4.2 Working with the Battery
•
The battery must be charged prior to using it for the first time because it is delivered with
an energy content as low as possible.
•
The permissible temperature range for charging is between 0°C to +40°C/+32°F to
+104°F. For optimal charging we recommend charging the batteries at a low ambient tem-
perature of +10°C to +20°C/+50°F to +68°F if possible.
•
It is normal for the battery to become warm during charging. Using the chargers recom-
mended by GeoMax, it is not possible to charge the battery if the temperature is too high.
•
For new batteries or batteries that have been stored for a long time (> three months), it is
effectual to make only one charge/discharge cycle.
•
For Li-Ion batteries, a single discharging and charging cycle is sufficient. We recommend
carrying out the process when the battery capacity indicated on the charger or on a
GeoMax product deviates significantly form the actual battery capacity available.
