General Handling Precautions
Before starting work or operation, be sure to check that the instrument is
functioning correctly with normal performance.
Do not submerge the instrument into water.
The in st rument can no t be submerged underwater.
The instrument is designed based on the International Standard IP 66, therefore it is
protected from the normal rainfall.
Setting the instrument on a tripod
When mount ing the inst rument on a tr ipod, us e a wooden tripo d when possible. The
vibrations that may occur when using a metallic tripod can effect the measuring precision.
Installing the tribrach
If the tribrach is installed incorrectly, the measuring precision could be effected.
Occasional l y chec k the adjusting screws on the tribrach. Mak e sure the base fixing lever is
locked and the ba s e fi xi ng screws ar e tighten e d .
Guarding the instrument against shocks
When trans por t ing the i nstru ment, p rovide some prot ectio n to mini m i ze risk of shocks.
Heavy shocks may cause the measurement to be faulty.
Carrying the instrument
Alwa ys carry the instrument by its handgri p.
Exposing the instrument to extreme heat.
Do not leave the instrument in extreme heat for longer than necessary. It could adversely
affect its perform ance.
Sudden changes of temperature
Any sudden change of temperature to the instrument or prism may result in a reduction of
measuring distance range , i.e when taking the i nstrument out from a heat ed vehicle . Let
instrument accl im at e itself to ambient tem per at u re .
Battery level check
Confirm battery level remaining bef or e operating.
Taking the battery out
It is recommended not to take the battery out during the power is on. All the data stored is
poss ible gone at that time. So pl ease do your assembling or taking the b attery out after the
power is off.
Noise from the inside of instrument
When EDM turns on, the sound of motors from inside the instrument body may be
heard. This is normal and does not effect operation of the instrument.

● Lighting, Blinking, and Extinguishing of Laser Pointer
Whenever the [F3] (L.P.) key is pressed, the laser pointer will light up, blink, or be extinguished, in
that order. The laser pointer assists wi th c ollimation by radiating visible laser light from the objective
lens to the target.
Laser aperture
● The laser pointer indicates the approximate collimation position of the telescope. It does not
indicate the exact collimation position. To adjust the laser pointer, see 17.2.2 “Checking the
optical axis of Laser pointer”.
● When the EDM is working, the laser pointer will blink.
● You cannot see the laser point er whe n looki ng through the tele scope . The ref ore , plea se loo k

● Point guide
Fast and simple to use, the Point Guide feature is useful when doing stake out work. The Point
Guide System on the instrument telescope assist the rod person to get on-lin e. When using with the
Point Guide System, the operating time of internal power source will become short.
Turning the Point Guide ON and Operation:
Press the [F3] key to turn ON the Point Guide.
Looking at th e obj ective lens of the telescope, the right
LED will blink and the left LED will stay lit.
The Point Guide should be used wit hi n a distance of 100
meters (328 f e et). The qualit y of it s result s will depe nd on
the weather condi tions and the user
The goal of th e rod person is to look at both LED’s on the
instrument and move the prism on-line until both LED
are equally bright.
If the solid LED is brighter, move right.
If the blinking LED is brighter, move left.
Once you have determined that both of the LED's are equally bright, you are on-line with the
instrument.
Turning the Point Guide OFF:
To turn OFF the Point Guide System, press the [F3] key again.
● Set audio mode
The light acceptance quantity level (Signal level) is displayed in this mode.
When reflected light from the prism is received, a buzzer sounds. Th i s functio n is good for easy

2.2 Setting Instrument Up For Measurement
Mount the instrument to the tripod. Level and center the instrument precisely to insure the best
performance. Use tripods with a tripod screw of 5/8 in. diameter and 11 threads per inch, such as the
Type E TOPCON wide- frame wooden tripod.
Reference: Leveling and Centering the Instrument
1. Setting up the Tripod
First, extend the extension legs to suitable lengths
and tighten t he screws on their midsections.
2. Attaching the Instrument on the Tripod
Head
Place the instrument careful ly on the tripod head
and slide the instrument by loosening the tripod
screw. If the plumb bob is positioned right over the
center of th e point, slightly ti gh t en the trip od
screw.
3. Roughly Leveling the Instrument by Using
the Circular Level
1 Turn the leveling screws A and B to move the
bubble in the circular level. The bubble is now
located on a line perpendicular to a line
running thr ough the center s of the t wo le v e ling
screws bei ng adjusted.
