5. Safety information


5.1 Basic safety informationIn addition to the safety precautions listedin the individual sections of these operating

instructions, the following points must bestrictly observed at all times.

5.2 Misuse

The range meter and its accessories can

be a source of hazard if they are not usedproperly or not used for the intendedpurpose by untrained people.– Do not use the range meter without

suitable prior instruction.– Do not render any safety devices

ineffective and do not removeinformation and warning notices.

– Have the range meter repaired only at a

Hilti service center. Unauthorizedopening of the range meter may causethe emission of laser radiation inexcess of class 2.

– No changes or manipulations to therange meter are allowed.

– Use only original Hilti accessories andauxiliary tools in order avoid the risk ofinjury.

– Do not use the range meter inatmospheres where there is a risk ofexplosion.

– Use only a clean, soft cloth for cleaning.If necessary, moisten the cloth slightlywith pure alcohol.

– Keep the range meter out of the reach ofchildren.

– Measurements taken to plastic foammaterials, such as polystyrene foam, orto snow or other strongly reflectingsurfaces, may be inaccurate.

– Taking measurements to surfaces withlow reflectivity surrounded by areas withhigh reflectivity may lead tomeasurement errors.

– Measurements taken through panes of

glass or other objects may be inaccurate.– Rapid changes of the measuringconditions, e.g. persons walking throughthe laser beam, may lead tomeasurement errors.

– Do not direct the range meter towardsthe sun or other sources of bright light.

– Do not use the range meter as a levellingtool.

– If you do not check the range meterbefore taking important measurementsand after it has been dropped orsubjected to other mechanical stressing.

– No checking of the setting of themeasuring reference before measuring.

5.3 General safety precautionsCheck the range meter for possible damagebefore use. If the range meter is found tobe damaged, have it repaired at a Hiltiservice centre. The accuracy of the rangemeter must be checked after it has beendropped or subjected to other mechanicalstressing.– When the range meter is brought into a

warm environment from very coldconditions, or vice versa, allow it tobecome acclimatised before use.

– Although the range meter is designed forthe tough conditions of jobsite use, itshould be treated with care, as otheroptical instruments (binoculars,spectacles, cameras, etc.)

– Although the range meter is protected toprevent entry of dampness, it should bewiped dry each time before being putaway in its transport container.

– As a precaution, check the settings youhave made before using the range meter.

7/24/2019 Hilti Pd32



– When using the circular bubble level(bull's eye) for alignment, only look atthe range meter from the side.

5.4 Proper organization of workplace

– Secure the area in which you aremeasuring. When setting up the rangemeter, take care to avoid directing thebeam towards yourself or other people.

– Avoid unfavourable body position when

working on ladders or scaffolding. Makesure you have a stable stance and avoiddanger of overbalancing at all times.

– Measurements taken through panes of glass or other objects may be inaccurate.

– Use the range meter only while observingthe specified operating conditions, i.e.not directed towards a mirror, brightchromium steel, polished stone, etc.

– Observe the accident prevention regula-tions in force in the country you areworking.

5.4.1 Electromagnetic compatibilityAlthough the range meter complies withthe strict requirements of the relevantguidelines, Hilti cannot entirely rule outthe following possibilities:– The range meter might cause

interference to other equipment, e.g.aircraft navigational equipment.

– The range meter might be subject tointerference caused by powerful radia-tion, which can then lead to incorrectoperation. Check the readings forplausibility when measuring in theseconditions or if you are unsure of the

results.

5.4.2 Laser classification The range meter conforms to laser class 2based on the IEC60825-1:1993+A1:1997+A2: 2001/DIN EN60825-1:2003;standard and class II based on CFR 21 §

1040 (FDA). These range meters may beused without need for further protectivemeasures. The eyelid closure reflex protectsthe eyes if a person looks into the beamunintentionally for a brief moment. Theeyelid closure reflex can, however, be nega-tively influenced by medication, alcohol ordrugs. Nevertheless, as with the sun, a per-son should not look directly into sources of

bright light. The laser beam should not bedirected towards persons.

7. Operation

7.2.2 Display illumination

=Illumination key

The illumination key, switches the display

illumination On or Off. In the dark or invery bright light, e.g. sunlight or a strongspotlight the display illumination helps theuser to read the display more easily.

- NOTE-Display illumination consumes additionalpower. If it is used frequently, a shorterbattery life must be expected.

7.3 Optical sight The built-in optical sight is a great benefitwhen measuring outside and whenever thelaser spot is poorly visible. Thanks to theoptical sight, even at long distances can beeasily and precisely aimed at. Wheneverthe rangemeter’s laser is On, the laser spotcan be seen in the optical sight. If the laserspot is not visible in the optical sight,either the measurement is completed orthe laser beam has switched off, the timerof 60 seconds may have expired.

The optical sight runs parallel to the laserbeam.

Typical measuring procedure with theoptical sight– Press the "Measure" key to activate

the laser beam.– Aim for the target with the laser spot in

the optical sight.– Press the "Measure" key or "Side

measure" key keep aiming until the laserspot in the optical sight disappears.

– Read the distance in the display.

Diagram of optical sight

- NOTE -It is practical for the optical sight to beused for distance above 10 m (30ft).

7. 4 M easuring distances

Distance measurements can be taken to all“non-cooperating” stationary targets, i.e.concrete, rock, wood, plastic, paper, etc.,

The use of prisms or other stronglyreflecting targets is not permitted and, if used, might falsify the results.

7.4.1 Measuring references

=switch key

The range meter can measure distancesfrom three different measuring referencepoints.By pressing the "switch" key on the left atthe front of the range meter the measuringreference point toggles between front edgeand rear edge. If the spike is folded out90°, the reference position is set to theend of the spike.

The reference for the measuring extensionPDA70 is activated when the range meteris switched off. While the reference key(upper left) is pressed and the range meterswitched On with the On/Off key (upperright) the spike symbol starts blinking inthe display. The reference for the measur-ing extension is deactivated when the

range meter is switched Off.

The result appears in the result linenormally in less than a second. The laserbeam switches off.

If further measurements are taken, up tothree previously determined distances areshown in the intermediate result lines,i.e. a total of the last four measureddistances are shown.

7.4.3 Measuring mode Two different measuring modes areavailable to measure distances. These aresingle distance measurement andcontinuous distance measurement. Thecontinuous measurement mode is used forsetting out given distances or offsets andis also used where distance measurementsare more difficult, e.g. to corners, edges,niches, etc.

7.4. 3. 1 Single distance measurement(Measure key)1.Switch on the laser beam by pressing

the "Measure" key.2.Press the "Measure" key once again.

Generally, the measured distance will becompleted in less than a second andshown in the result line.

- NOTE -Alternatively the range meter may beswitched on by pressing the On key andthe laser then activated by pressing themeasure key.

7.4.3.2 Continuous measurementPress the "Measure" key for about 2 sec-onds to activate this measuring mode.When doing so, it does not matter whetheror not the range meter is off or the laserbeam is switched on or off. The rangemeter will always switch to continuousmeasurement.During continuous measurement, the dis-tances are updated in the result line byabout 8 to 15 measurements every second.

This depends on the reflectivity of thetarget surface.If the beep signal is switched on, continu-ous measurement is indicated by a Beep.

The measuring process is stopped bypressing the "Measure" key once again. Ondoing so, the last valid distancemeasurement shows in the result line onthe display.

- NOTE -Continuous measurement is possiblewherever distances can be measured. Thisapplies also to functions, such as areasand volumes.

7. 4.4 M easuring from corners The spike is used when measuringdiagonally across rooms or frominaccessible corners.

1. Fold out the spike 90°. This automatically sets the measuringreference to the end of the spike. Therange meter takes the extendedreference point into account andcorrects the measured distancesaccordingly.

2. Position the range meter with the spikeat the desired starting point for themeasurement and aim towards thetarget.

3. Press the "Measure" key. The measureddistance will appear in the display.

7/24/2019 Hilti Pd32


7. Operation

7. 4. 5 M easuring with the aid of targetobjectsWhen taking measurements to exteriorcorners, e.g. on buildings, perimeterfences, etc., boards, bricks or other

suitable objects can be used as the target.

Use of the PDA 50 target plate isrecommended for long distances and inunfavourable light conditions, e.g. strongsunlight.

7.4.6 Measuring in bright surroundings

The PD 32 has a built-in optical targetsight. When measuring to very brightsurfaces, the laser spot is often not visible.

Thanks to the laser spot superimposed inthe optical sight, you can always clearlyand reliably aim at the target.

For long distances and bright lightconditions, we recommend the use of

the PDA 50 target plate.

7.4.7 Taking measurements to roughsurfacesWhen measuring to rough surfaces, e.g.coarse render, stucco, etc, an average dis-tance value is measured weighting the cen-

tre of laser spot higher that the edges of the laser spot.

7.4.8 Taking measurements to round orinclined surfacesIf surfaces of this kind are aimed to anobtuse angle, inadequate light energy or,when aimed perpendicular, measurementsmay refer to the reflected laser spot fromelsewhere. In both cases we recommendthe use of the PDA 50 target plate

7.4.9 Taking measurements to wet orshiny surfacesAs long as the range meter can be aimedtowards the surface, a distance to thetarget will be reliably measured. In the caseof highly reflective surfaces, a reduction inthe range or a measurements to the actuallight reflex from elsewhere must beexpected.

7/24/2019 Hilti Pd32


7. Operation / 8. Applications

7.4.10 Taking measurements totransparent surfacesIt is not possible to measure distances totransparent materials, e.g. liquids, foampolystyrene, etc. This is because light pen-

etrates these materials and therefore meas-uring errors may occur. Ifmeasurements are taken through glass,measuring errors may also occur.

7.4.11 Measuring ranges

7.4. 11.1 Increased distances

– Taking measurements in the dark, atdawn, dusk and to shaded targets orwith the front of the range meter shaded,generally leads to an increase of themeasuring range.

– Taking measurements to the PDA 50target plate also results in an increase of the measuring range.

7.4.11. 2 Reduced distances– Taking measurements in very bright

ambient light, e.g. in sunshine or a verybright spotlight etc, can lead to a reduceddistances.

– Taking measurements through glass orother objects in the target beam can leadto a reduced measuring range.

– Taking measurements to matt green, blueor black, wet or shiny surfaces can leadto a reduced measuring range.

8. Applications and calculationfunctions

The individual steps within all functions aremostly supported, on principle, by graphics

on the display.

- NOTE -– Continuous measurement can be used

within all functions where singlemeasurements are possible.

– If measuring errors occur duringcontinuous measurement or ifcontinuous measurement is stopped by

pressing the "Measure" key again, the lastvalid distance will be shown.

8.1 M easurement data memoryWhile measuring, the range meter continu-ously saves the measured values and theresults of calculations.

8.1.1 Saving measurements

When measuring several distances, up tothree previous distances, are displayed inthe intermediate result lines. This meansthat in total the last four measureddistances are displayed or saved.

8. 5 Subtracting distances

Single distances can be convenientlysubtracted from each other. This is usefulfor determining, for example, offsets toinaccessible places or the distance fromthe underside of a pipe to the ceiling. To doso, the distance from the floor to theunderside of the pipe is subtracted fromthe distance from the floor to the ceiling. If,additionally, the pipe diameter is deducted,

the result is the distance from the top of the pipe to the ceiling.

1. Press the "Measure" key.(The laser beam will be switched on.)

2. Aim the range meter at the target.3. Press the "Measure" key.

The first distance will be measured andshown.(The laser beam will switch off.)

8.6 Indirect measurementAn indirect distance can be determined bytaking several distance measurements andcalculating according to Pythagoras'stheorem.

The functions for indirect measurement arecalled by pressing the "Indirect distancemeasurement" function key.When doing so, there are two possibilities:

the combined version using threemeasured distances(Press the function keyonce.)

the simple version using twomeasured distances(Press the function keytwice.)

The simple version is suitable when arectangular reference exist such as twoperpendicular walls or a floor adjacentto a vertical wall.

The combined version is more suitable fora free determination where it is notpossible to measure a perpendicular dis-tance to one end of the distance to

be calculated.- NOTE -

The result of indirect measurement is, dueto principle less accurate than direct

8. Applications

measurements. To obtain the best possibleresult, attention must be paid to the geom-etry, e.g. right angle and trianglearrangement. The best results areobtained when:

a) the tool is aimed accurately at the endsof the line

b) all points measured are in one singleplane

c) measuring is carried out closer to theobject rather than far away.

8.6.1 Measuring criteria

The indirect measurement function verifiesthe triangular geometry as the measure-ments are taken. The angle of thetriangle(s) at the range meter’s position ischecked and must be greater than 10°.Otherwise a double beep indicates an error,the function terminates and all previousmeasurements are lost. The function auto-matically restarts.

The most reliable results are achieved withthe closest offset to the object. Additionallywhen using the combined version (double-triangle), both triangles should be almostthe same size.

8. 6.2 Selecting indirect measurementoptionsPressing the "Indirect distancemeasurement" function key, activates thecombined version first. Pressing the"Indirect distance measurement" functionkey once again, switches to the simpleversion. Pressing this key a third time,switches from this function back to the

normal display mode.

8.6.3 Indirect measurement(combined version)

>10°

>10°

The individual steps for indirect distancedetermination are supported bycorresponding graphics on the display.

To use the combined version, for example,the following procedure must be observed:

1. After starting the "Indirectmeasurement" function, the laser beam

will be switched on and the combinedversion activated.

2. Aim the range meter at one end of theline to be determined as indicated onthe graphic display.

3. Press the "Measure" key.4. Thereafter, the graphic display will

automatically request measurement of the perpendicular distance. Here,

particular care must be taken tomeasure this distance in the continuousmeasurement mode in order todetermine the point with the shortest(perpendicular) distance more reliably

5. Move over the point in the area of sus-pected minimum distance from the toolwith and stop the measurement bypressing the "Measure" key.

6. The tool requests measurement of theother end of the line. Aim the tool atthis point and press the "Measure" key.

7. After the last distance has beenmeasured, the range meter willimmediately calculate the indirect dis-tance.
