Warning:
Total station is equipped with rangefinders with laser level
3R/IIIa， which is recognized by the following logo recognition
at the horizon-axis locking knob” of the instrument, saying
“Class 3A Laser Product”. The Total Station is classified as
Class 3R Laser Product and abides by the class of Laser Product
according to IEC Standard Publication 60825-1:2001.
For Class 3R/IIIa Laser Product, its emitted laser with
wavelength between 400nm and 700nm can be at most 5 times
of that of Class 2/II.
Warnings:
Never star at laser beam constantly, it could cause
permanent eye damage.
Precautions:
Do not see directly into laser beams nor point laser to
persons.
The reflected beam is the necessary for the instrument
5
measurement signal.
Warnings:
It’s dangerous to use Class 3R Laser instrument improperly.
Precautions:
In order to avoid causing damage, the proper precautions
should be taken for you and control well the distance (in
accordance with the standard “IEC60825-1:2001”) that may
occur hazards.
The following is the main part of the explanation of the IEC
Standard Publication:
Class 3R Laser Products are used in outdoors and on
building site (with non-prism measurements).
The personnel who is specially trained, qualified and
authenticated are allowed to stall, adjust and operate these laser
instruments.
b. Set up corresponding laser warning signs in the use of
area range.
c. Prevent anyone from looking directly into laser beams or
watching the laser beams with optical device.
d. In order to prevent laser damage to people , the laser
beams should blocked at the end of the working route. In the
limited area (★Hazardous distances) where the laser beams
through ,the laser beams should be terminated when there are
some activities.
e. the route which laser beans through must be set higher or
lower than the sight of people.
f. When the instrument not in use, please make it
safekeeping and storied. Unauthorized person should not use it.
g. To prevent exposure to laser beam accidentally, such as
mirrors, metal surfaces, windows, be careful as the flat surface
of the mirror and concave mirror.
6
*The hazardous distance refers to the maximum distance
which is from beginning of the laser beams to the laser beam
weaken until it does not harm people. The built-in rangefinder
products equipped with Class 3R/IIIa laser whose hazardous
distance is 1000 meters (3300feet), and in the distance, the
strength weakens to a Class 1 laser (sightseeing beam eyes
couldn't hurt).

1. Use of instrument
The total station is such an instrument that measures the
azimuth and distances to destination and can calculate the
destination point coordinates automatically. It plays an important
role in the economic construction and national defense
construction. General Survey, exploration and mining of
minerals, the construction of railways, roads, bridges, irrigation,
urban planning and construction is driven by electronic total
station measurements. In the building of national defense, such
as battlefield preparations, harbor, forts, airfields, bases and
military construction projects, and so on, must be based on a
detailed and accurate geodetic. In recent years, electronic total
station is a large precision engineering, shipbuilding and aviation
industries and other aspects of effective tools for precise
positioning and installation.
The series total station is equipped with absolute code dial
system, integrated-circuit-control-board ranging item and
microcomputer for measurements of angle and distance and for
calculation, display, depositing and etc. It can exhibit horizontal
and vertical angle, slope and horizontal distance and altitude
difference simultaneously. Furthermore, it can be set to measure
under different mode (e.g. Angle mode, Distance mode).It is
even designed for you specializing in construction projects with
non-prism ranging. The non-prism ranging can be
comprehensively used in measuring three-dimensional
coordinates, position determination, remote elevation
measurement (REM), verticality, pipeline positioning,
cross-section measurement etc. It also meets requirements for
trigonometrical control survey, topographic survey, cadastre and
real estate survey.

though the instrument is rotated to any position.
4.2.2 Using centering device to center
1) Set up the tripod;
Open the tripod. Make sure that the three feet of
the tripod are approximately equal in distance from the
center and that the top is leveled. Screw up the three
locking screw;
Make sure that the center of the tripod top is right
above the station;
Stamp one foot on the ground with your feet.
2) Install the instrument gently on the top of the tripod
and screw up the screw connection. Open the laser
plummet through star (★) key to aim at the station
precisely;
3) Using circular level to level the instrument coarsely;

According to the observation of center device, loose the
connection screw slightly and shift the instrument horizontally
(mention that do not turn around the instrument)until the
instrument aims at the station precisely.
18
Repeat the steps above until the instrument aims at the
station precisely.
4.3 Loading and unloading of battery
The information of the battery
--Full battery, operation is available.
--Just appearing this information which means the battery
can support the instrument for another 4 hours.
--The battery is lower, and it’s better to replace.
--Measurement is impossible, and it’s necessary to replace
and recharge battery.
Notes:
◆The working time of battery will be effected by many
factors, such as ambient temperature, recharging time,
recharging and discharging times. For safety, we suggest you
recharge the battery full or prepare several full batteries before
operation.
◆The battery symbol only indicates power capability for
current measurement mode. The power consumption in distance
measurement mode is more than in angle mode, if the instrument
enters into distance measurement mode from angle mode, the
power maybe auto-off because of lower battery.
Notes for loading/ unloading batteries:
▲You should switch off the instrument before unload the
battery.
Notes for charging:
▲Though the charger is designed with overcharge
protection circuit, one must unplug the charger after finished
charging.
▲Suitable temperature range for charging is between -45℃
and +45℃. Charging process may be abnormal if being over the
19
temperature range.
▲A battery can be recharged for 300-500 times.
▲A monthly recharging is required if the instrument is not
used for a long time.
4.4 Reflecting Prism.
When measuring distance with prism mode, a reflecting
prism must be set at the target site. You can connect the prism to
the base, and then connect the base onto the tripod .you can also
set the prism onto the centering rod. There are single-prism
group and three prism group available on the market, so you can
select them according to your requirements.
4.5 Loading and unloading of the pedestal
Unloading
Unload the base by loosening the locking screw on the base
with a screw driver and anti-clockwise turn the screw around
180°.
Loading
Put the three fixed feet of the instrument into the
corresponding holes to make the instrument on the base. Turn
the clamping screw clockwise 180° to lock the instrument. Then
tighten the screw with a screw driver.
4.6 Adjusting eyepiece lens of the telescope and
aiming the target.
How to aim at targets?(only for reference)
1) Aim at the bright sky with the telescope and adjust the
eyepiece to focus until a sharp image of the cross wire forms;
2) Aim at the target with the cross center in the coarse
sighting device on the top of the lens. Your eyes should keep a
20
proper distance (about 200mm) away from the sighting device;
3) Obtain a sharp image of the target on the reticule with
the focusing screw. If optical parallax appears when angle of
view changed, the focus or the diopter of the eyepiece may be
unadjusted. For precision concerns, please adjust the eyepiece
focus to eliminate the optical parallax carefully.

13. Adjustments and Corrections
The instrument is under strict test and calibration, the
quality is accord with the standard demand. But after a
long-distance transportation and environment change, the small
change of instrument parameter is inevitable. Therefore, the new
purchased instruments should be checked and calibrated before
surveying to ensure the precision.
13.1 Tubular Level
Check
See reference in using tubular level to level the instrument
precisely.
Calibration
1. In the calibration, if the level bubble diverges from the
center, use the foot spiral which parallels the leveling tube to
adjust to make the bubble move half of the distance to the center.
For the remaining, use the calibration needle to turn the level
calibration screw (in the right of the water-level) to adjust the
bubble to the center;
2. Turn the instrument 180° to check that whether the
bubble is in the center. If the bubble is not centered, repeat step 1
until the bubble is in center;
3. Turn the instrument 90° and use the third foot screw to
adjust the bubble to the center;
4. Repeat the steps of checkout and calibration until the
bubble in the center in every direction.
13.2 Circular Level
Check
After the level tube is calibrated correct, if the circular level
114
bubble also in center, so there is no need to calibrate.
Calibration
If the bubbles is not in the center, use the correction needle
or six angle wrench to adjust the correction screw which under
the bubble to make the bubble to the center. For calibration, you
shall first loosen the calibration screw (1 or 2) which opposite to
the direction of the bubble offset, then tighten the other
correction screw in the offset direction to make the bubble in the
center. When the bubble is in center, make sure the fastening
force of the
Three calibration screws are consistent.
13.3 Reticle of the telescope
Check
1. Aim at a target A from the telescope after leveling the
instrument the cross wire on the reticle. Lock the instrument
with vertical and horizontal locking knob after aiming at A.
2. Rotate the vertical slow motion knob, move A point to
the edge of the field of view (A 'points);
If point “A” moves along the vertical line of the crosshair,
but is still in the vertical line as the left picture, the crosshair
doesn't need to calibrate. If point “A”deviate from vertical line
center, as the right picture, the crosshair is slant, so need to
calibrate the reticle;

1. First, take down the reticle cover between telescope
eyepiece and focusing hand-wheel, and you can see four fixed
screw of the reticle bed (sees attached figure);
2. Unscrew the three fixed screw evenly with screwdriver,
rotate the reticle around collimation axis, to make A point on the
vertical line of the reticle;
3. Tighten the screw evenly, test the calibration results with
the above methods;
4. Cover the reticle.

13.4 The Perpendicularity of Collimation axis and
Cross axis (2C)
Check
1. Set a target A in about 100m away, and make sure the
vertical angle of the target is within ±3°.Precisely level the
instrument and switch on it;
2. Make the telescope focused on target A in face left, and
read the horizontal angle e.g. HA (L)=10°13′10″;
3. Loosen the vertical and horizontal brake hand-wheel,
turn the telescope, rotate the alidade to face right and focus on
the same target A. Before aiming please tighten the horizontal
116
and vertical brake hand-wheel and read the horizontal angle;
e.g. HA (R)=190°13′40″
4. If 2C=L-(R±180°)=-30″≥±20″, the instrument need to be
calibrated.
Calibration
1.Use the horizontal slow motion knob to adjust the
horizontal angle to the right reading which has eliminated the C.
R + C = 190°13 '40 "-15 "= 190°13' 25";
2.Take down the reticle bed cover between the telescope
eyepiece and focusing hand-wheel, adjust the calibration screw
of the crosshair on the left and right. First, loosen the screw on
one side, and screw up the screw on the other side, move the
reticle and focus on target A;
3. Repeat the test steps, calibrate it to | 2 C | < 10;
4. Tighten the calibration screws, put the protective cover
back.

Note: Check the photoelectric coaxiality after calibrating.
13.5 Vertical plate index zero automatic
compensation
117
Checkout
1. After Setting up and leveling the instrument, make the
direction of the telescope consistent with the line between the
center of the instrument and any of the foot screw;
2. The vertical plate index change to zero after switching on
Tighten the vertical brake hand-wheel and the instrument display
the current telescope vertical Angle;
3. Screw the leveling screw towards one direction for
circumferential distance around 10mm, the vertical angle
displayed will disappear through the process and ‘Tilt over!’
appears to the column. It indicates that the inclination of the
instrument is over 3′, which is over the range the instrument was
designed to compensate. Screw the leveling screw back towards
the opposite direction, the vertical angle re-appears on the screen.
It shows that the tilt works well now. Users may observe the
change of the readout about the critical point.
Slowly rotate feet X to 10 mm around in one direction, the
display of the vertical angle will change from changing until
disappear to appear "Tilt over!" correspondingly , it indicate that
the dip Angle of the vertical axis is bigger than 3 ', beyond the
range of vertical plate compensator design . When rotating the
feet spiral recovery in the opposite direction, the instrument
shows vertical Angle again, if you can see the change when
testing it again and again in critical positions, it says that vertical
plate compensator works normally.
Calibration
When finding the tilt compensator abnormal, please send
the instrument back to factories for checking.
118
13.6 Vertical index error (angle i) and set vertical
index 0
Please first adjust finely the reticule of the telescope and the
compensator before calibrating and checking index error.
Check
1. Turn on the instrument after placing and leveling it, and
focus the telescope on a clear goals .A to get the face left reading
of vertical Angle L;
2. Turn the telescope around and aim at the same target A
and get the face right reading of vertical Angle R;
3. Assume that the zenith of the vertical angle is 0°, then
angle i= (L+R-180°)/2 or Angle i= (L+R-540°)/2;
4. If | i |≥10", may be you need reset the zero value of
vertical index;
5. For the following steps, see reference in chapter 11.6.1.
Note: Repeat the checkout steps to retest the index error
again (i Angle). If the index error still cannot accordance with
requirements , it should check the three steps of calibration index
zero setting (in the course of zero setting ,the vertical angle
showed is not compensated and corrected, it is just for reference)
to see whether it is incorrect, whether the focusing of target is
correct, reset according to the requirements;
6. If the index error does not meet requirements at all, you
may have to send the instrument back to factories for checking.
13.7 Centering device
Check
Place the instrument onto the tripod and draw a cross on a
white paper, place the paper with a cross on the ground right
below the instrument;
2. Adjust the focal length of the optical plummet (for the
119
optical plummet) or press key[★] to switch on laser plummet,
move the white paper to make the cross in the center in the field
of view (or laser flare);
3. Turn the feet screw, make the center mark of the
plummet coincide with the cross center;
4. Rotate alidade, every turn of 90°, observe the contact
ratio of the optical plummet and cross center;
5. When rotate the alidade, the center of the optical
plummet always coincide with the cross center, there is no need
to calibrate. Otherwise you should calibrate as the following
methods.
Calibration
1. Take down the screw cover between the optical plummet
eyepiece and the focusing hand-wheel;
2. Fix the white paper with a cross, and mark the points
when the instrument rotates 90°, as the figure shows A, B, C, D
points;
3. Connect the diagonal points A、C and B、D with a straight
line, the intersection name of the two line is point O;
4. Use the calibration needle to adjust the four calibration
screw, to make the center mark of the plummet coincide with
point O;

5. Repeat step 4, check and calibrate until it meet the
requirements;
6. With the laser plummet, unbolt the laser cover, using 1 # hex
wrench to adjust the three screws, fasten one side and loosen the
other side, and adjust the laser flare to point O;
7. Put the cover back in place.
13.8 Addictive constant (K)
The instrument constant is inspected when it out, and
correct it inside the machine, make K = 0. Instrument constant
change rarely, but we suggest that check it this way for one or
two times each year. The checkout should be done in the
standard baseline, or you can take the following simple method.
Checkout
1. Choose a flat field A to set up and level the instrument ,
mark three points A、B、C in the same line ,their interval is 50m,
and set up the reflection prism accurately;
2. After setting the temperature and atmospheric pressure of
the instrument, measure the horizontal distance of ‘A B’ and
‘ AC’ accurately;
3. Place the instrument at point B then centering it
accurately to measure the horizontal distance of BC precisely;
4. Obtain the distance measurement constant of the
instrument: K= AC-(AB+BC);
K should be close to zero, if | K | > 5 mm,it should be send
to standard baseline field for strict checking. You can calibrate it
based on the checking value.
Calibration
If it turns out the instrument constant does not close to 0 but
changing after strict inspection, you need to calibrate it,and set
the instrument additive constant according to the comprehensive
121
constant K value. Such as: the K has been measured as ‘-5’
according to the method above, and the original instrument
constant is ‘-20’, so the new value should be set as ‘-20-(5)
=-15’; Input ‘-15’ through "menu-> 6->2" and then confirm.
Use the vertical line of the reticle to orientate, make A, B
and C at the same line accurately. There must be a clear mark for
point B on the ground to focus.
Whether the prism center of the point B coincide with the
instrument center is the guarantee of checking the accuracy, so,
you have better use tripod and all-purpose tribrach, for example,
if you change the three-jaw type prism connector with tribrach,
keep the tripod and tribrach stable, just change the prism and the
part above the tribrach of instrument, and it can reduce the error
of misalignment
13.9 The parallelism of collimation axis and
photoelectricity axis
Checkout
1. Place a reflector prism 50 meters away from the
instrument;
2. Focus on the reflecting prism center with telescope
crosshair accurately;
3. Check whether the telescope crosshair center coincide
with the emission photoelectricity axis center, if they coincide on
the whole we can say it qualified;
Calibration
If the telescope crosshair center deviates from emission
photoelectricity axis center largely, send it to professional repair
and calibration department.
122
13.10 Non-prism ranging
The red laser beam is coaxial with the telescope, used for
no prism ranging, and it is sent by telescope. If the instrument
has been calibrated, red laser beams will coincide with the line
of sight. The external influence such as the vibration, the larger
temperature change and other factors may make laser beam and
viewing not overlap.
Before precise ranging, you should check whether the
direction of the laser beam is coaxial. Otherwise, it could lead to
inaccuracy.
Warning:
Looking straightly at the laser is dangerous.
Prevention:
Don't look laser beams directly, or focus on others.
Checkout:
Put the gray side of the reflector towards the instrument,
and put it 5 meters and 20 meters away. Start laser direction
function. Focus on the reflector center by the telescope crosshair
center, and check the position of the red laser point. Generally
speaking, the telescope is equipped with special filter, human
eyes can′t see laser point through the telescope, you can see the
offset between the red laser point and the reflector crosshair
center, you can observe this above the telescope or at the side
face of reflector. If laser center coincide with the crosshair center,
it indicates that the adjustment meet required accuracy. If the
offset between the point position and the mark of crosshair is out
of limit, it will need to be sent to professional department for
adjustment.
If the reflector is too bright under the illumination of laser
beams, the grey side can be replaced by the white side.
