Hawke Laser Range Finder PRO 900

 

Overview

 

Hawke’s Laser Range Finders are designed to deliver highly accurate distance measurements with the press of a button. They are ergonomically constructed to fit comfortably in your hand with easy access to both of the control buttons. Its range finding capabilities include: Distance, Rain, Hunt, Horizontal Distance and Angle modes. The LRF requires a 3V CR2 battery and will automatically turn off after 15 seconds of no operation to save power. The LRF has been manufactured with an eye safe CE approved laser and can be used in shooting, archery, golf, construction, site survey and many other tasks. WARNING Looking directly at the sun can cause permanent eye damage. Do not look directly at the sun, either with this product or the naked eye.

  3. When turned on, the range finder will start in the same mode it was in when last used.
  4. To cycle through the modes simply press the MODE button until you come to the setting you desire.
  5. Quick press the POWER button to range find the target you are aiming at.
  6. The diagonal lines around the center aim point flash to confirm range finding.
  7. The laser range finder will automatically turn off when not used for 15 seconds.

 

Standard Mode


Standard mode measures the straight line distance to the target you are aiming at. It is measured to the nearest tenth of a yard/meter. When there is nothing displayed in the targeting modes area of the display (to the right or underneath the distance), you are in Standard mode. If you hold the POWER button while in Standard mode the range finder will continuously scan so you can move around and get constant updates of the distance.

 

Rain Mode

 

Rain mode measures the straight line distance to the target, but ignores any interference from falling raindrops. The target distance must be more than 30m / 33yds away. When range finding in Rain mode, the Horizontal Distance will also be shown on the lower distance readout line.

 

Hunt Mode

 

Hunt mode measures the straight line distance to the target, but ignores any interference from long grass or brush that stands between you and the target, ideal for measuring the distance to a deer that’s walking through long grass or woodland. When Hunt mode is triggered the Hunt mode icon will have a circle around it. When range finding in Hunt mode, the Horizontal Distance will also be shown on the lower distance readout line.

 

Horizontal Distance "HD" Mode

 

HD mode measures the horizontal distance to the target. The straight line distance is shown on the upper distance readout and the HD component is shown on the lower distance readout. This is especially useful for measuring the bullet compensated distance to a target. If shooting at high angles in the mountains, firing airguns that have loopy trajectories, or shooting bows from a tree stand, HD mode gives a more realistic distance for use when calculating holdover aim points. If you hold the POWER button while in HD mode the range finder will continuously scan so you can move around and get constant updates of the horizontal distance.

 

Angle Mode

 

Angle mode measures the angle of projection. It is measured to the nearest tenth of a degree. The straight line distance is shown on the upper distance readout and the angle measurement is shown on the lower distance readout. When aiming downhill a minus symbol will appear to the left of the angle display.

 

Units of Measurements

 

The laser range finder can measure in meters or yards. To change between the two settings hold the MODE button for 3 seconds. M = meters, Y = yards

 

Additional Information

 

The quality of the measurements strongly depends on the structure of the object, the weather and visibility conditions. The more straight the laser beam strikes an object, the greater distances can be measured. • The LRF should only be repaired by a qualified professional. Do not attempt to disassemble or repair the LRF as this will invalidate the warranty. • Do not hold the POWER and MODE buttons together. • Always insert battery “-” side first. • When cleaning the lens, only use the cloth supplied or a soft, lint free cloth. • Inspect the battery regularly for any signs of degradation and replace if necessary. • Remove the battery if the LRF is not in use for long periods of time. • Always store the LRF in a cool and dry environment. • Keep the LRF in its carry case when not in use.
