Thank you for purchasing Total Station R2 Series.
This manual will give a detailed and complete instruction.
Please read it carefully before using the instrument.
PRECAUTIONS
1. Do not collimate the objective lens directly to the
sunlight without a filter.
2. Do not store the instrument in extremely high or low
temperature, in order to avoid the sudden or great change
of temperature.
3. When the instrument is not in use, store it in the case
and avoid shock, dust and humidity.
4. If there is great difference between the temperature in
work site and that in store place, you should leave the
instrument in the case till it adapts to the temperature of
environment.
5. If the instrument has not been used for a long time, you
should remove the battery for separate storage. The
battery should be charged once a month.
6. When transporting the instrument should be placed in
its carrying case, it is recommended that cushioned
material should be used around the case for support.
7. For less vibration and better accuracy, the instrument
should be set up on a wooden tripod rather than an
aluminum tripod.
8. Clean exposed optical parts with degreased cotton or
less tissue only!
9. Clean the instrument surface with a woolen cloth after
use. If it gets wet, dry it immediately.

SAFETY GUIDE
INTEGRATED DISTANCE METER (VISIBLE LASER)
Warning
The total station is equipped with an EDM of a laser grade
of 3R/
Ⅲ
a. It is verified by the following labels.
On the vertical tangent screw sticks an indication label
“CLASS III LASER PRODUCT”.
This product is classified as Class 3R laser product, which
accords to the following standards.
IEC60825-
1:2001 “SAFETY OF LASER PRODUCTS”.
Class 3R/III
a laser product: It is harmful to observe laser
beam continuously. User should avoid sighting the laser
at the eyes. It can reach 5 times the emitting limit of
Class2/II with a wavelength of 400mm-700mm.
Warning
Continuously looking straight at the laser beam is harmful.
Prevention
Do not stare at the laser beam, or point the laser beam to
others’ eyes. Reflected laser beam is
a valid
measurement to the instrument.
Warning
When the laser beam emits on prism, mirror, metal
surface, window, etc., it is dangerous to look straight at the
reflex.
Prevention
Do not stare at the object which reflects the laser beam.
When the laser is switched on (under EDM mode), do not
look at it on the optical path or near the prism. It is only
allowed to observe the prism with the telescope of total
station.
Warning
Improper operation on laser instrument of Class 3R will
bring dangers.
Prevention
To avoid to be harmed, each user is required to take
safety precautions, and take everything under control
within the distance that would incur dangers (according to
IEC60825-1:2001).
The following shows the explanation related to the
key sections of the Standard.
Laser instrument of Class 3R is applicable outdoors and
in construction field (measurement, defining lines,
