Make sure you work from a safe stance and stay in balance at all times. b) Use the tool only within its specified limits. c) Measurements taken through or from panes of glass or through other objects may be inaccurate. d) Use of the telescopic staff in the vicinity of overhead high voltage cables is not permissible. a) 2.4 Electromagnetic compatibility Although the tool complies with the strict requirements of the applicable directives, Hilti cannot entirely rule out the possibility of the tool being subject to interference caused by powerful electromagnetic radiation, leading to incorrect operation. Check the accuracy of the tool by taking measurements by other means when working under such conditions or if you are unsure. Likewise, Hilti cannot rule out the possibility of interference with other devices (e.g. aircraft navigation equipment). 3 Description 3.1 Use of the product as directed The tool can be used to remotely control the PR 300-HV2S rotating laser and to detect and locate the laser beam. These operating instructions apply only to operation of the PRA 300 laser receiver. For information about the remote control functions, please refer to the operating instructions for the PR 300-HV2S. In conjunction with the PR 300-HV2S, the tool can be used to determine, transfer and check horizontal levels and heights, verticals, inclined planes and right angles. Examples of its uses are: transferring datums and benchmark heights, determining right angles for walls, vertical alignment on reference points and setting out slopes. Observe the information printed in the operating instructions concerning operation, care and maintenance. Take the influences of the surrounding area into account. Do not use the tool where there is a risk of fire or explosion. Modification of the tool or tampering with its parts is not permissible. 3.2 Features The tool can be held by hand or mounted on a leveling staff, timber batten or frame etc., using the applicable holder. 3.3 Indicators NOTE The display incorporates several symbols that indicate various circumstances. Position of the laser receiver relative to the height of the laser plane Battery status indicator Volume level Offset indicator Other indicators The position of the laser receiver relative to the height of the laser plane is shown by an arrow indicating the direction in which the laser receiver has to be moved in order to bring it exactly into alignment with the laser. The battery status indicator shows the remaining battery capacity. If no volume symbol is shown, the signal tone is switched off. If one segment is shown, the volume is set to “Low” (quiet). If two segments are shown, the volume is set to “Normal”. If three segments are shown, the volume is set to “High” (loud). Shows the exact distance of the laser receiver from the laser plane in the desired unit of measurement. Other indicators in the display refer to the PR 300-HV2S rotating laser when controlled remotely. For further information, please refer to the PR 300-HV2S operating instructions. 3.4 Items supplied PRA 300 (01) laser receiver / remote control Batteries (size AA cells) PRA 300 operating instructions Manufacturer’s certificate 4 Technical data Right of technical changes reserved.

Do not touch the display areas or the receiving area with the fingers. Use only a clean, soft cloth for cleaning. If necessary, moisten the cloth slightly with pure alcohol or a little water. NOTE Do not use any other liquids as these may damage the plastic components. 4. Dry the equipment, observing the maximum temperatures given in the technical data. NOTE Especially in summer and winter, take care that the given maximum and minimum temperatures are not exceeded, e.g. when the equipment is stored in a motor vehicle. 7.2 Storage Remove the tool from its case if it has become wet. Dry and clean the tool, its transport container and accessories (while observing the permissible temperature range). Repack the equipment only once it is completely dry. Check the accuracy of the equipment before it is used after a long period of storage or transportation. Remove the batteries from the tool before storing it for a long period. Leaking batteries may damage the tool. 7.3 Transport Use the original Hilti packaging or packaging of equivalent quality for transporting or shipping your equipment. CAUTION Remove the batteries from the laser receiver before transporting or shipping it. 7.4 Hilti Measuring Systems Service Hilti Measuring Systems Service checks the tool and, if deviations from the specified accuracy are found, recalibrates the tool and checks it again to ensure conformity with specifications. The service certificate provides written confirmation of conformity with specifications at the time of the test. The following is recommended: 1. 2. 3. 4. The tool should be checked at suitable intervals, depending on the frequency of normal use. The tool should be checked at least once a year by a Hilti Measuring Systems Service Center. The tool should be checked by a Hilti Measuring Systems Service Center if it has been abused in any way. The tool should be checked by a Hilti Measuring Systems Service Center before being used for particularly important work. Having the tool checked by a Hilti Measuring Systems Service Center does not relieve the user of his/her obligation to check the tool before and during use. 8 Disposal DANGER Improper disposal of the equipment may have serious consequences: The burning of plastic components generates toxic fumes which may present a health hazard. Batteries may explode if damaged or exposed to very high temperatures, causing poisoning, burns, acid burns or environmental pollution. Careless disposal may permit unauthorized and improper use of the equipment. This may result in serious personal injury, injury to third parties and pollution of the environment. Most of the materials from which Hilti tools or appliances are manufactured can be recycled. The materials must be correctly separated before they can be recycled. In many countries, Hilti has already made arrangements for taking back old tools and appliances for recycling. Ask Hilti customer service or your Hilti representative for further information. For EC countries only Do not dispose of electronic measuring tools or appliances together with household waste. In observance of the European Directive on waste electrical and electronic equipment and its implementation in accordance with national law, electrical appliances and batteries that have reached the end of their life must be collected separately and returned to an environmentally compatible recycling facility. Dispose of the batteries in accordance with national regulations. en 9 Manufacturer’s warranty - tools Please contact your local Hilti representative if you have questions about the warranty conditions. en 10 FCC statement (applicable in US) / IC statement (applicable in Canada) CAUTION This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules.
