Optical Plummet
This adjustment is required to make the line
of sight of the optical plummet coincide with
the vertical axis.
A)
Point the optical plummet at a ground target. This can be done by adjusting the
level screws or by loosening the instrument fastening screw and moving the instru-
ment over the target.
B)
Turn the instrument 180
°
(200g) around and re-sight
the target through the optical plummet. If the target is
still centered, no adjustment is necessary. If not, go to
step C.
C)
Remove the adjusting screw cover from the
optical plummet. Unscrew in a counterclockwise
direction. This will expose four reticle adjusting screws.
D)
Using the adjusting pin provided in the case,
turn the reticle adjusting screws until half the
displacement has been removed. Loosen
one screw 1/4 turn, then tighten the
opposing screw 1/4 turn.
E)
Repeat steps A through D until there
is no displacement of the target when
the instrument is turned about its vertical
axis
