PLUS OR MINUS 0.2 DEGREE ACCURACY, 0.05 DEGREE RESOLUTION: This digital angle gauge runs on a MEMS tilt sensor rated at ±0.2° accuracy with ±0.1° repeatability and a 0.05° display resolution over a 0° to 90° range, so the bevel you set on Monday still reads the same on Friday. An 'Err' warning appears on the screen when the unit is held in a position it cannot read, which stops a wrong number reaching your saw. MAGNETIC BASE HOLDS IT ON STEEL HANDS-FREE: The bottom face carries the magnet, so the gauge stays put on a saw table, a steel beam or a wheel hub while both of your hands stay on the work, and the V-groove machined into that same face straddles round pipe and bar stock instead of rocking on it. Please note that the magnet sits on the bottom face only and holds on ferromagnetic steel and iron, so it will not stay on aluminium or wood. FOUR REFERENCE FACES WITH ZERO AND HOLD: All four faces of the level box work as reference surfaces across 4 x 90°, so you turn the tool to suit the job instead of turning the workpiece. Press ZERO on any surface to move from absolute to relative measurement and read the difference between two faces, press HOLD to freeze a reading before you pull the tool out of a tight gap, and hold ZERO for one to two seconds to turn the green LCD backlight on or off. BACKLIT LCD WITH HOLD FUNCTION – The large LCD display with automatic backlight keeps readings clear in both bright outdoor light and dimly lit workshops. Press HOLD to freeze the current reading — useful when you need to transfer the measurement without looking away from the display. All four sides of the unit serve as reference surfaces, giving you flexibility in how you position the tool. ALUMINIUM ALLOY BODY, IP54 AND READY TO USE: The frame is machined aluminium alloy rather than plastic and carries an IP54 rating against workshop dust and splashes, and at 5.6 x 5.4 x 2.5 cm the angle gauge drops into an apron pocket. It powers down on its own after three minutes without a keypress, and the pack arrives with two AAA batteries, a nylon storage bag, a mini screwdriver for the battery cover and an English manual. VERTICAL USE ONLY, SINGLE-AXIS TILT SENSOR: This is a single-axis tilt box, so stand it upright against the saw blade, on the pipe run, against the rafter or on the mitre fence and take the reading in that position. Laying the unit flat on a bench top returns an incorrect reading rather than a true horizontal angle, so keep a spirit level to hand for flat work. NOTE: it is a single-axis tilt box and is designed for vertical placement only (cannot be laid flat). Or, there would be error.
