Attention! All operations with the Total Station (TS) should be gentle. Pack TS to the case if you move it from one point to another.
- Release clamps and extend tripod's legs to a suitable height
- Tighten the clamps
- Press with a foot to all tripod's leg to make a stable connection with the ground
- Make sure that the tripod is very stable and can securely hold TS
- if applicable, install a tablet holder
- Using always two hands, place TS to the tripod's top
- Secure it with the tripod's screw (underneath) for fixing TS
- Make sure that everything was fixed securely and there is no danger of falling
- One by one release clamps of legs to make a circular level's bubble roughly in the center; do not use TS's fine-tuning-screws before it
- Make the bubble exactly in the center with the fine-tuning-screws
- It is a bad practice to center the level during measurement, thus, try to be gentle when touching the station
Turn on the power button; it is set up now.
