3 PREPARATION FOR SURVEYING
The brightness adjustment step of the laser is 10 steps.
The laser plummet spot can become difficult to see in bright sunlight which
makes it difficult to perform the occasional check. In this case, use your foot or
the carrying case to make a shadow over the laser position.
The laser plummet is adjusted to be within ±0.8 mm at the instrument height
of 1.5m at factory shipping.
Please confirm the amount of the gap (direction of X and Y direction) with the
laser plummet beforehand compared with plumb bomb etc. when working like
accurately putting out a perpendicular direction using the laser plummet
function.
Please do not look at the laser source of beam directly.
