2. Directions of Use
2.1 Set Up
Location
Keep the location clear of possible obstructions that could
block or reflect the laser beam.
Place the i88R/G on stable ground. Ground vibration and
extremely windy conditions can affect the operation.
When working in a very dusty environment place the laser
up-wind so the dirt is blown away from the laser.
Setting up on a
Tripod
Attach the i88R/G securely to a tripod or mount on a
stable level surface.
If a tripod has chains, they should be slightly loose to
allow for thermal expansion during the day.
Secure the tripod on extremely windy days.
2.2 Turning On/Off
Turning on and
off
Press the power button (f) to turn on/off the i88R/G
After turning on:
If set within the 5° self-levelling range, the i88R/G will
self-level, once the unit has self-levelled the laser head
will start to spin emit a rotating laser beam.
If the unit is bumped or senses interference the laser head
will stop spinning and re-level. Once unit has re-levelled
the laser head will begin to spin again, emitting a level line
Warning
- If the unit has been bumped or moved and the
laser recommences spinning the instrument may not be at
the original level position. Please recheck your RL/datum
point.
2.3 Tilt Warning System (TWS)
Description
of (TWS)
Mode
To prevent the possibility of the i88R/G giving a different reading
than is expected due to a knock or the laser being moved by a
third party the TWS function can be used and will prevent the unit
re-levelling and spinning in the event of a knock or movement.
