5. Check that the scanner and tripod are correctly locked gently lifting up on the bottom of the scanner. If it stays

attached to the tripod the scanner is secure.

6. Check the inclinometer and adjust your tripod to make sure it is secure and level before you begin your scan

project.

Additional Tips

1. If you are setting up the tripod on a natural surface, replace the rubber tripod feet with spikes for increased

stability.

2. Periodically check the tightness of the quick release on the tripod.

3. Never force the laser scanner to turn without releasing the thumb screw.

4. Remove the laser scanner before moving the tripod.

To Achieve Stability and Rigidity
