DISTANCE TO SPOT (FIG. 5)
IR Thermometers have a "Cone Effect" where the further the thermometer is from the
object, the larger the area being measured. The IR Thermometer has a 12:1 distance
to spot (12:1) ratio, for ever 305 mm away from the object it will measure 25 mm.
The object that is being tested needs to be larger then the spot size to ensure accurate
readings.
KEY NOTES IF HAVING TROUBLE TAKING MEASUREMENT
1. Make sure to apply
FIG. 5
masking tape or
flat black paint to
surfaces that are
highly reflective
(use the default
0.95 emissivity
setting).
2. Make sure to
have the correct
emissivity for
the material you
are testing. Refer
to Emissivity
and Nominal
Emissivity Table.
3. Clean the material before testing if there is heavy dirt, grease, etc.
Operating Tips
• Use only the 10.8 V D
WALT lithium ion battery.
E
• Ensure batteries are in good working condition. If the low battery indicator light is
flashing, the batteries need to be recharged.
• To extend battery life, release the IR Thermometer trigger when not taking
temperature readings.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and
disconnect battery pack before making any adjustments or removing/installing
attachments or accessories.
Lubrication
Your power tool requires no additional lubrication.
Cleaning
WARNING: Blow dirt and dust out of all air vents with clean, dry air at least once

WARNING: Shock hazard. Disconnect the charger from the AC outlet before
cleaning. Dirt and grease may be removed from the exterior of the charger using a
cloth or soft non-metallic brush. Do not use water or any cleaning solutions.
Repairs
The charger and Infrared Thermometer are not serviceable. There are no serviceable
parts inside the charger or Infrared Thermometer.
Troubleshooting
THE IR THERMOMETER DOES NOT TURN ON
• Make sure the 10.8 V battery is charged.
• IR thermometer will not be damaged by pressing the ON/OFF button before
