The instrument is ideally suitedfor all applications of a reliableand robust construction level.

The easy operation of theinstrument functions can bequickly learned even byinexperienced surveyors.

• Easy operation; quickly tolearn !

• Attractive design; low weight.

• Endless drive.

• Robust and reliable.

• Enables angle measurementswith horizontal circle(choice of ° or gon).

• Resistant to water and dirt.

• Adaptable to all types oftripods with 5/8" central fixingscrew.

Backsight/Foresight/Intermediate sightFor determining the heightdifference (∆H) between theground points A and B the backsight (R) is measured firstfollowed by the forward sight(V). Additional points relating toA are measured as intermediatesight (S).

Plumb line

By centring the circular level theinstrument is nearly levelled up.A small instrument tilt remains(the vertical axis tilt).

Compensator

The compensator in theinstrument is responsible forcompensating the vertical axistilt enabling an exactly horizontalaiming.

When setting up thetripod pay attention to ahorizontal position of thetripod plate.

Heavy inclinations of the tripodmust be corrected with thefootscrews of the tribrach.

&��� ���*������� *�$

1. Loosen screws of tripod legs,pull out to required length andtighten screws.

2. In order to guarantee a firmfoothold sufficiently press thetripod legs into the ground.

When pressing the legs intothe ground note that the forcemust be applied along thelegs.

Careful handling of tripod

• Check all screws and boltsfor correct fit.

• During transport always usethe cover supplied.

Scratches and otherdamages can result in poorfit and measuringinaccuracies.

• Use the tripod only forsurveying jobs.

1. Aim telescope against abright background (e.g. whitepaper).

2. Turn eyepiece until reticule issharp-focused and deepblack. Now the eyepiece isadapted to your eye.

3. Aim telescope on staff usingthe coarse aiming device.

4. Turn focusing knob untilimage of staff is sharplyfocused. If the eye is movedup and down behind theeyepiece the image of thestaff and the reticle may notbe displaced against eachother.

For possible centring over aground point:1. Attach plumb bob.2. Loosen central fixing screw

slightly and shift instrumentparallel on tripod until theplummet is exactly over thepoint.

Before starting field workor after longer periods of

storage/transport of yourequipment check the fieldadjustment parametersspecified in this User Manual.

Reduce possiblevibrations by holding the

tripod legs.

If the optical parts ofyour instrument are dirty

of fogged, your measurementscan be affected. Keep clean alloptical parts of your instrumentand follow the cleaninginstructions specified in theUser Manual.

The required accuracy isusually not very high

with such measurements.Nevertheless, from time to timeread the staff on a stableintermediate point (reading mustremain the same).

Procedure:

1. Set up instrument centrallybetween the desired points.The instrument telescopemay not be below the highestmeasured intermediate point.

2. Set up staff vertically atreference point A.

3. Aim on staff and read andtake down height (=backsightto known point).

4. Set up staff vertically atpoint 1.

5. Aim on staff and read andtake down height(=measuring intermediatepoint, intermediate sight)

6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 foradditional intermediatepoints.

Procedure:1. Sequence of measurements

is the same as with arealevelling. However, beside theheight read also the staffsection L (see chapter"Distance measuring") andthe Hz-angle.

2. Transfer measured value intothe map - points aredetermined by position andheight.

The stakeout is the counterpartto the levelling total stationmeasuring - map points are setout in the field.

Procedure:1. Set up instrument at a known

point, centre and level up.2. Focus instrument and aim on

known orientation point.3. Orient horizontal circle (Hz-

direction).4. Move staff to stakeout point

on the basis of known values(distance and Hz-angle,height) and stakeout point

With the circular bubble centredand adjusted, the line of sightshould be horizontal.

Checking (see example):1. Choose a distance of appr.

30 m within a gentle terrain.2. Set up a staff at both final

points (A, B).3. Set up the instrument at point

I1 (halfway between A and B,just pass it down) and centrethe bubble.

4. Read both staffs.reading on A = 1.832 mreading on B = 1.616 m∆H = A - B = 0.216 m

5. Set up the level about 1 mfrom staff A

6. Read staff A (eg.: 1.604 m)7. Find nominal reading B;

eg.: Reading A - ∆H =1.604 m - 0.216 m = 1.388 m

8. Read staff B, comparenominal-/actual- reading.

When the differencenominal-/actual- reading

is more than 3 mm the line ofsight must be adjusted.

1. Turn the allen key until themiddle hair gives the requiredreading (eg. 1.388 m).

2. Check line of sight again.
