21.CHECKS AND ADJUSTMENTS
DS is a precision instrument that requires fine adjustments. It must be inspected and adjusted before
use so that it always performs accurate measurements.
• Always perform checking and adjustment in the proper sequence beginning from "21.1 Circular
Level" to "21.8 Laser Plummet (Option)".
• In addition, the instrument should be inspected with special care after it has been stored a long time,
transported, or when it may have been damaged by a strong shock.
• Make sure the instrument is securely set up and stable before performing checks and adjustments.
The bubble tube is made of glass, so it is sensitive to temperature changes or to shock. Check and
adjust it as outlined below.

• Be careful that the tightening tension is identical for all the adjusting screws. Also, do not over-
