7 First steps

7.1 Batteries

The tool is equipped with two batteries which can supply power one after the other.
The current state of battery charge (both batteries) is always shown.
When changing batteries, one battery can remain in the tool and continue to provide power while the other battery is
en
being charged.
When changing batteries while the tool is in operation and to prevent the tool switching itself off, it is recommended
that the batteries are changed one after the other.

7.2 Charging the battery

After unpacking the tool, remove the AC adapter, charger and battery from their holders.
Charge the battery for approx. 4 hours.

7.3 Inserting and changing the battery 8

Insert the charged battery into the tool with the battery connector underneath and facing the tool.
Secure the battery compartment cover carefully.

7.4 Checking functions

NOTE
Please note that this tool makes use of friction clutches for pivoting about the alidade and thus does not have to be
locked at the horizontal drives.
The horizontal and vertical drives are of the continuous type, similar to those of an optical level.
Check the functions of the tool before initial use and at regular intervals in accordance with the following criteria:
1.
Pivot the tool carefully by hand to the left and right and tilt the telescope up and down to check operation of the
friction clutches.
2.
Turn the horizontal and vertical drives carefully in both directions.
3.
Turn the focussing ring fully to the left. Look through the telescope and turn the eyepiece ring to bring the cross
hairs into focus.
4.
With a little practice you can check the two optical sights on the telescope to ensure that they are in alignment
with the object targeted by the cross hairs.
5.
Check to ensure that the cover for the USB interfaces is closed securely before further use of the tool.
6.
Check that the screws on the carrying handle are tight.
