2. PRECAUTIONS
Maintenance
• Wipe off moisture completely if the instrument gets wet during survey work.
• Always clean the instrument before returning it to the case. The scanner unit, wide-angle camera lens
and laser plummet window, etc. require special care. First, dust it off with the lens brush to remove tiny
particles. Then, after providing a little condensation by breathing on the lens, wipe it with the wiping
cloth.
• If the display is dirty, carefully wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. To clean other parts of the instrument or the
carrying case, lightly moisten a soft cloth in a mild detergent solution. Wring out excess water until the
cloth is slightly damp, then carefully wipe the surface of the unit. Do not use any alkaline cleaning
solutions, alcohol, or any other organic solvents on the instrument or display.
• Store the instrument in a dry room where the temperature remains fairly constant.
• Check the tripod for loose fit and loose screws.
• If a foreign object is thought to be in the rotation section or the screw section of this instrument, or if a
trace of water droplets or mold is found on the scanner unit, or the reflecting prism of the scanner,
contact your local dealer.
• When the instrument is not used for a long time, check it at least once every 3 months.
• When removing the instrument from the carrying case, never pull it out by force. The empty carrying
case should be closed to protect it from moisture.
• Check the instrument for proper adjustment periodically to maintain the instrument accuracy.
