6.4 Inclination of reticule graduations  
Inspection  
1
Set an object point A on the line of sight through the telescope.  
2
Move point A to the edge of the field of view by adjusting the  
telescope tangent screw (point A’).  
3
No adjustment is necessary if point A moves along the vertical line of  
the reticule. If the point A does not move along the vertical line of the  
reticule, it needs adjustment - Consult with your dealer.

6.5 Perpendicularity of line of sight to horizontal axis  
Inspection  
1
Set an object (point A) at a distance of 30 to 50m away from the  
instrument and sight it through the telescope.  
2
Loosen the telescope clamp screw and reverse the telescope around  
the horizontal axis. Mark a point set on the line of sight at about the  
same distance to the object point A, and call it point B.  
3
Loosen the horizontal clamp screw, and rotate the instrument around  
the vertical axis. Sight point A again.  
4
Loosen the telescope clamp screw, and reverse the telescope around  
the horizontal axis. Mark a point on the line of sight at about the same  
distance as point B, and call it point C.  
5
No adjustment is necessary if point B and C coincide,  
but if it does not - Consult with your dealer.

6.6 Difference of the vertical angle  
Inspection  
1
Set the vertical angle in Zenith 0° mode  
2
Sight an object (Point P) with the telescope and read the vertical  
angle (V correct).  
3
Reverse the telescope and rotate the alidade.  
4
Sight point P again in the reverse position and  
read the vertical angle (V reverse).  
5
At this time, when (V correct + V reverse - 360°)/2 is less than 15,  
it is within tolerance. If it shows a larger value,  
it needs adjustment - Consult your dealer.

6.7 Optical plummet  
Inspection  
1
Place a piece of white paper, with a cross drawn on it, directly under  
the instrument.  
2
Look through the optical plummet, and move the paper so that the  
intersecting point of the cross comes to the center of the field of view.  
3
Adjust the leveling screws so that the center mark of the optical  
plummet coincides with the intersection point of the cross.  
4
Rotate the instrument around the vertical axis. Look through the  
optical plummet each step of 90° rotation, and observe the center  
mark position against the intersection point of the cross.  
5
If the center mark always coincides with the intersection point, no  
adjustment is necessary. When it does not coincide, the following  
adjustments are required.

Center mark  
Adjustment  
1
Remove the cover of the optical plummet.  
2
Mark the point set on the line of sight at each step of 90° on the  
white paper and call them A,B, C and D.  
3
Join the opposed points (A, C and B, D) with a straight line, and set  
intersecting point 0.  
4
Turn four optical plummet adjusting screws with the adjusting pin so  
that the center mark coincides with the intersection point 0.  
5
Repeat procedure again to confirm.

7. Optional Accessories  
7.1 Diagonal Eyepiece (SB14)  
The Diagonal eyepiece can be attached to the telescope for convenience  
in observing the zenith or when in confined spaces.  
<Installation>  
1
Turn the telescope eyepiece ring counterclockwise to remove  
the eyepiece.  
Be sure to hold the eyepiece, securely, so that you do not drop it.  
Attach the diagonal eyepiece to the telescope by reversing  
the procedure.  
The diagonal eyepiece can be rotated through 360°.  
When sighting through the telescope with the diagonal eyepiece  
attached, the reticule may be seen deflected vertically or horizontally,  
but this has no influence upon accuracy.
