  • Page 56: Check & Adjust

    Check & Adjust Overview Description Leica Geosystems instruments are manufactured, assembled and adjusted to the best possible quality. Quick temperature changes, shock or stress can cause deviations and decrease the instrument accuracy. It is therefore recom- mended to check and adjust the instrument from time to time. This check and adjust can be done in the field by running through specific measurement pro- cedures.
