    2. PRECAUTIONS 1. Never place instrument directly on the ground，as sand or dust may cause damage to the screw holes or the centering screw on the base plate. 2. Before carry on the measurement, we need to have an overall check with the inrsrument, such as: battery, parameters, and initial settings.
  • Page 8 Warning： Continuously looking straight at the laser beam is harmful. Prevention: Do not stare at the laser beam, or point the laser beam to others‟ eyes. Reflected laser beam is a valid measurement to the instrument. Warning: When the laser beam is shooting at prism, mirror, metal surface or window, the reflected laser beam is also harmful to eyes.

    PART 6 CHECKING AND ADJUSTMENT The instrument has been checked and adjusted strictly in the factory and can meet the quality requirement. But the long distance transportation and the change of the environment will have great influence on internal structure of the instrument. So before using, the instrument should be checked and adjusted according the items of this section.
