Instrument’s Inclination Regulating Handle (Fig. 14) 

This handle allows the operator to freely regulate the inclination of the instrument to work at a comfortable 
posture.  After screwing the handle outward, the operator can incline the device to a required angle according 
to the state of the working table.  Then lock the handle to secure the inclination.

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS 

 

Preparation before Measurement

 

ƒ

 

Place the instrument on the working table and adjust the inclination so that the operator is able to 
make the measurement comfortably. 

ƒ

 

Connect with the mains. 

ƒ

 

Before measurement, visibility of the eyepiece shall be regulated in order to obtain accurate 
results.  While observing the black cross dividing line of the (8) eyepiece reticule, rotate the 
eyepiece cover counterclockwise entirely.  Then slowly turn the eyepiece cover clockwise until 
the black cross becomes clearest.  The eyepiece is now in focus. 

ƒ

 

Rotate the diopter measuring handwheel to regulate the scale interval to zero position.  Observe 
the green division line of (3) marker reticule in the view field of the eyepiece.  The green dividing 
line should now be clearest.
