[Starting the operation]
Press the power supply key.
Automatic self-leveling function works and leveling begins
automatically. When leveling is completed, the rotor begins to rotate
and emits visible laser beam.
NOTE:
•
Before operating the instrument, perform the ‘Check and adjustment
of the datum point’ on page 35.
•
Before operating the instrument, confirm that the manual mode display
lamp is not turned on in red. While automatic self-leveling function,
(the manual mode display lamp turns on in red) pay attention that
the horizontal accuracy of emitted laser beam is not guaranteed.

When the status that the automatic self-leveling function is not stable
continues for about 3’, the off level display lamp turns on in red and
rotation of rotor and the emission of laser beam stop.
•
While not in operation, be sure to turn the instrument’s power switch off.
