Instrument Set-Up, Coarse Centering,
Levelling and Fine Centering
Set-up:
1. Extend the tripod legs (1) to a comfortable height of
observation and fix them using the tripod locking screws 2).
2. Screw the instrument centrally to the tripod head plate (3).
5
6
The tribrach screws (4) should be in mid-position.

Coarse Centring (when needed):
3. Set up the tripod roughly above the station point
(ground mark), the tripod head plate (3) should be
2
1
approximately horizontal.
4. Centre the circular mark of the optical plummet (5)
above the ground mark using the tribrach screws
or by turning on the Laser dot (turn OFF after use!).
To focus the circle: Turn the eyepiece.
(If using optical plummet , turn the eyepiece to
focus the circle)
To focus the ground mark: Draw out or push in the
eyepiece of the optical plummet. Then push in
or pullout the eyepiece to sharpen the focus.
Coarse Levelling:
5. Level the circular bubble (6) by adjusting the length of
the tripod legs (1).
c)
Precision Levelling:
6. Align the control unit parallel with the imaginary connecting
a)

1
line between two tribrach screws. Level the instrument by
b)
turning the tribrach screws a) and b) in opposite directions.
7. Turn the instrument by 90 degrees (100grad) horizontally
and level instrument with tribrach screw c).For checking, turn
the instrument round the vertical axis.
8. After that, check the residual inclination by turning the
instrument in both diametrical positions of (1) and (2). Take
the mean of deviation from center point of level and adjust, if
necessary.

Precision Centring:
9. Shift the tribrach on the tripod head plate until the image of
the ground mark is in the centre of the circular mark of the
optical plummet; repeat the levelling various times if
necessary.
Telescope Focusing
Focusing the Crosslines:
1. Sight a bright, evenly coloured surface and turn the
telescope eyepiece until the line pattern is sharply defined.
* Attention !
Sighting of the sun or strong light sources must by all
means be avoided. This may cause irreparable
damage to your eyes.
Focusing the target point:
2. Turn the telescope focusing control until the target point is
sharply defined.
