DIST

TO USE

Maintain both eyes open when measuring. One eye reads the display and the

other eye monitors the measuring object/surrounding. After only a short time this

way to work will feel comfortable, and the advantage is that you can avoid

measuring the wrong tree height for example.

FUNCTION

Select function by pressing the button a number of times according to the below:

BATTERY

HCH uses one standard AA (LR6) battery to operate. A warning is displayed if the battery is weak and goes below

1.0V. The warning comes up as a text message (BAt) for a short second when turning on the HCH.

DISTANCE AND HEIGHT MEASURING

The HCH uses the factual distance from the measuring point (the eye) to the lower

part of the measuring object. You will not have to state any horizontal distance.

you have reached a desired value. If the angle is too narrow to obtain the value you need, simply release the

button and start over. By repeating until you reach the desired value, an optional distance from 0 to 999m/ft can

be set. Note that the HCH instrument does not measure distances! The more accurate the input distance value,

the more accurate the height measuring results. The distance can be measured with a measuring tape, a thread

meter or an ultrasound measuring device, please visit www.haglofsweden.com for different models.

Complete the distance registration with a short button press. Last input value remains in the HCH instrument

memory.

Measure the angle to the lower part of the measuring object by aiming with the two

horizontal lines in the display. Press the button.
