Checking and adjusting

Tripod

The connections between metal and timber compo-
nents must always be firm and tight.
•

Tighten the Allen screws (2) moderately.

•

Tighten the articulated joints on the tripod head
(1) just enough to keep the tripod legs open
when you lift it off the ground.

Circular level

Level-up the instrument in advance with the elec-
tronic level. The bubble must be centered. If it
extends beyond the circle, use the Allen key
supplied to center it by turning the adjustment
screws.
After adjustment no screw must be loose.
