Unpacking Your Tool

• Carefully unpack and inspect your tool. Fully familiarise yourself with all its features and functions

• Ensure that all parts of the tool are present and in good condition. If any parts are missing or damaged, have such parts replaced before attempting to use this tool

Operating Instructions

This is a precision instrument. Please read these instructions carefully and follow guidance on correct handling and storage so that you get the best out of your level and prolong its working life.

Transport

• Protect the instrument from excessive movement or knocks. Always transport the instrument in the case provided

Prior to Use

• For optimum performance of your level, thoroughly check the instrument before use

• Due to the precision nature of this instrument, even if it has been packed correctly in its case it may need re-adjustment (See ‘Horizontality of the line-of-sight’, below)

• Allow a short time before use for the instrument to adapt to the prevailing temperature

Setting up

• Always handle the instrument with care when setting up

• Set the tripod (not included) at a comfortable height and so that the top of

the tripod is as level as possible. When working on soft ground, tread the legs of the tripod ﬁrmly into the ground

• Attach the Level securely using the tripod ﬁxing screw

• Centre the circular bubble in the vial by rotating the foot screws (Fig 6)

Fig.6

Pointing and focusing

• Point the Level towards a bright background or hold a white sheet of paper in front of the lens

• Rotate the Eyepiece (4) until the cross hairs are sharp and black

• Turn the level towards the measuring staff (not included); you can use

the peep sight

• Looking through the eyepiece, rotate the Focus Dial (10) until the image of the staff is sharp and clear

• Rotate the Horizontal Movement Dial (11) to set the vertical hair down the centre of the staff

Measuring

Height measurement

• Read the staff where it is intersected by the middle hair. With metric staffs it is usual to estimate to 1mm. The height reading in ﬁg.7 is

3.456m

Fig.7

Distance measurement

• Read the staff where it is intersected by the upper and lower stadia hairs. The difference multiplied by 100 is the distance from the instrument to the staff

• For example, in ﬁg.7 these readings are at 3.601m and 3.309m, therefore, the distance from the instrument to the staff is: (3.601m -

3.309m) x 100 = 29.2m

www.silverlinetools.com

Angle measurement

• Align the vertical hair with Point A – see Fig 8

Fig.8

• Note the reading on the Horizontal Calibrator (5) at the Horizontal Calibrator Reference Point (6). Let this reading be 'x'

• Use the Horizontal Movement Dial (11) to turn the instrument and align the vertical hair with Point B and note the reading on the horizontal calibrator. Let this reading be 'z'

• The angle y = x − z

Checking and adjusting the vial

Checking the vial

• Use the Foot Screws (12) to centre the bubble in the vial (see Fig. 3)

• Turn the instrument 180°. The bubble should remain centred

• If the bubble moves out of centre, the vial needs adjustment

Adjusting the vial

• Use the foot screws to bring the bubble halfway to the centre (Fig. 9, below)

Fig.9

• Then, using the hex key supplied, turn the Vial Adjustment Screws (8) to centre the bubble (see Fig. 4)

• Repeat the above procedure until the bubble remains centred when the instrument is turned 180°

Horizontality of the line-of-sight

The line-of-sight needs to be horizontal within 3mm of level to be accurate.

Establish datum

• Set up the level on a tripod halfway between two measuring staffs (Fig.

10) and set approximately 39m to 50m apart. Centre the bubble

To correct line of sight, if necessary

• Screw off the Eyepiece Cover (3)

• Turn the adjusting screw (See Fig. 5) until the middle hair gives the

required reading of 1.484m on the staff at B

• Replace the cover, but do not over tighten

Maintenance

• To protect all parts and retain accuracy, take good care of this instrument

• After use, clean the lens with a soft brush or lens cloth. DO NOT touch the

lens with your ﬁngers

• Use a soft brush or cloth to clean the body of the machine

• If the instrument is damaged or faulty, it must be checked and repaired

only by a qualiﬁed technician

Storage

• Store the instrument in the case provided, in a clean, dry place. Avoid storage in areas prone to large temperature ﬂuctuations

• If the level is not used for an extended period of time, occasionally remove the instrument from its case to allow any temperature difference between the carry case and its storage area to equalise

• A bag of silica gel is included to absorb any moisture in the case. If the bag is damp, dry it out or replace with a new one

Disposal

• Do not dispose of power tools, or other waste electrical and electronic equipment, with household waste

• Contact your local waste disposal authority for information on the correct way to dispose of tools

Fig.10

• Take the reading on staff A where it is intersected by the middle hair – for example: 1.924m

• Rotate the level and take the reading on staff B where it is intersected by the middle hair– for example: 1.712m A – B = 0.212m. Thus B is 0.212 higher than A

Check the line-of-sight

• Move the level and set it up about 1m from A (Fig.11)

Fig.11

• We know that B is 0.212m higher than A. Thus the reading to B should be

0.212 less than that to A

• Read the staff at A – for example 1.696m

• Subtract 0.212m; therefore the reading to B should be 1.484m

• Read staff at B. If the reading is 1.484m ±3mm, the line-of sight is

horizontal
