Service Request
To locate your local dealer or authorized Trimble Service Center outside
the U.S.A. for service, accessories, or spare parts, contact one of our
offices listed below.
General Care, Safety And Storage
General safety rules
a) Check the condition of the tool before use.
b) The user must check the accuracy of the tool after it has been
dropped or subjected to other mechanical stresses.
c) Although the tool is designed for the tough conditions of jobsite use,
as with other measuring instruments it should be treated with care.
Do not use prisms or mirrored surfaces
Distances can be measured from all stationary targets without a highly
reflective surface, i.e. concrete, stone, wood, plastic, paper, etc. The use
of prisms or other highly reflective targets is not permissible and, if
attempted, may falsify the results.
Calibration Check
It is recommended to occasionally check the calibration of the tool.
1) Select a known measure distance about 1 to 5 meters (3 to 15 ft) that
does not change over time.
2.) Measure the distance 10 times. Calculate the mean deviation from
the actual distance. The measured mean deviation should be less than
the typical accuracy tolerance of
± 1.5 mm (± 1/16 in)
Cleaning and drying
1. Blow dust off the lens.
2. Do not touch the lens with the fingers.
3. 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.
Storage
The temperature limits for storage of your equipment must be observed,
especially in winter / summer.
Remove the tool from its pouch if it has become wet. The tool, its
carrying case and accessories should be cleaned and dried (at maximum
40°C). 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.
Transport
Use the original packaging or packaging of equivalent quality for
transporting or shipping your equipment.
CAUTION
Always remove the batteries before shipping the tool.
Warranty
Trimble warrants the Quick Measure QM55 to be free of defects in
material and workmanship for a period of 3 years. For the first 2 years,
Trimble or its authorized Dealer or Service Center will repair or replace,
at its option, any defective part, or the entire product, for which notice
has been given during the warranty period. For the 3rd year, an
exchange fee may apply. This warranty period is in effect from the date
the system is delivered by Trimble or its authorized Dealer to the
purchaser, or is put into service by a Dealer as a demonstrator or rental
component.
Any evidence of negligent or abnormal use, or any attempt to repair
equipment by other than factory-authorized personnel or Trimble
certified or recommended parts, automatically voids the warranty.
The foregoing states the entire liability of Trimble regarding the
purchase and use of its equipment. Trimble will not be held responsible
for any consequential loss or damage of any kind.
This warranty is in lieu of all other warranties, except as set forth above,
including an implied warranty. Merchantability of fitness for a
particular purpose is hereby disclaimed.
Customers should send products to the nearest authorized Factory,
Dealer or Service Center for warranty repairs, freight prepaid. In
countries with Trimble Service Subsidiary Centers, the repaired products
will be returned to the customer, freight prepaid.

FUNCTIONS - Area, Volume, Indirect Measure
(Pythagorean Theorem)
1) Press the FUNC button and cycle through the symbols until you
arrive at the desired function as shown in this figure.
Area Volume Indirect Double Indirect
2) Press the ON button to activate the laser and take first measure
3) Press the ON button to activate the laser and take second measure
4) Press the ON button to activate the laser and take third measure (if
required)
The display will indicate which measure is being taken as per the
following chart.
The result will be displayed along with the individual measures.
NOTE: The indirect and indirect double measurements are based
upon the Pythagorean principle which requires a right angle (90⁰) for
accuracy. The indirect measure estimate is less accurate if the
measurements do not form a right angle.
Addition and Subtraction
+ The next measure is added to the previous one
- The next measure is subtracted from the previous one
See figure
Storage and Recall of Measurements
The QM55 will automatically store the previous 50 measurements
results.
1) To retrieve these measures: press the clear button (C/OFF)until there
are no measures shown on the screen
2) Press the + button. The Display will appear like the figure.
3) The higher number (up to 50) indicates the most recent
measurement taken.
4) Use the + or – buttons to scroll through the measurements.
