Additional Operational Instructions

for the Transit Level

The Transit Level has all the same functions and capabilities as the Builder’s Level. By disen-

gaging the lock lever (K), the instrument is capable of measuring and working with vertical appli-

cations.

The vertical arc (H) is attached to the telescope axis and is read through the use of a vertical

index pointer (I). Vertical angles can generally be read with a transit level to 45˚ above or below

horizontal. This can be accomplished by using the vertical tangent screw (J) to set the

crosshairs on the object being measured. Once this is set, do no move the instrument and

take your vertical measurement.

Instruments with telescope tilting capabilities can be used in various applications such as

fence posts, setting points in a line, plumbing building walls and setting columns.

TO PLUMB A VERTICAL COLUMN

1. Set up and level this instrument.

2. Sight a point at the bottom of the object that you are setting or checking and set your

crosshairs on that point.

3. Raise the telescope so that it tracks along the intended line. If the object stays aligned

with the vertical crosshair, the object that you are looking at is plumb.

4. To accurately complete this procedure, move and set up the instrument at a 90˚ angle

from your original point and repeat the above procedure.

MAINTENANCE

The Builder’s and Transit Levels are designed to be used generally in construction as well as

for agriculture, mining and forestry industries. With the appropriate care, your instrument will

need only minimal routine maintenance and minor adjustments under normal field use.

In case your instrument is damaged or abused, it should be taken to a qualified instrument

repair facility or returned to D

EWALT for repair.

1. The instrument should always be kept properly encased when not in use, for maximum

protection.

2. Keep the instrument clean and free of dirt and moisture. After use, clean every part of the

instrument completely before putting it back in its case.

3. Do not attempt to clean, oil or repair interior parts. Do not remove any lenses. The inte-

rior parts are not user serviceable.

4. After working in dusty locations, remove all dust from the lenses with a clean, soft tissue

or cloth and brush the leveling and tangent screws threads with a small brush.

5. When working near moving equipment, never leave your instrument unattended.

6. Make sure not to over tighten the leveling screw, clamp screw or adjusting screw.

7. Always spread the tripod legs to insure a stable setup. When setting up your tripod on an

incline, make sure two of the three legs are on the lower side of the incline. When set-

ting up on a pavement or other hard surface, try to protect the legs from slipping by either

making holes for the legs to sit in or blocking the legs.

8. It is recommended that a qualified service technician check the instrument periodically.

AVERTISSEMENT ! Lire, comprendre et suivre toutes les directives

précisées ci-dessous, y compris les consignes de sécurité, afin d’éviter

les risques de choc électrique, d’incendie ou de blessure grave.

CONSERVER CES DIRECTIVES

DANGER : Ne pas utiliser pendant un orage ni près de lignes à haute tension. NE

JAMAIS utiliser le tube jaugeur pendant un orage ni près de fils électriques suspendus.

DANGER : Ne pas utiliser un dispositif optique, tel qu’un télescope ou un théodolite,

pour examiner le faisceau laser afin d’éviter de blesser grièvement les yeux.

DANGER : Toujours s’assurer d’installer les instruments optiques de manière à

empêcher l’utilisateur de regarder, volontairement ou accidentellement, le soleil ou

toute autre source de lumière intense à travers ceux-ci, étant donné que le soleil se

déplace toute la journée.

• Ranger le niveau et le théodolite hors de la portée des enfants ou des personnes

non qualifiées.

• N’utiliser que les accessoires recommandés par le fabricant pour le modèle con-

cerné; un accessoire destiné à un niveau ou à un théodolite particulier peut devenir dan-

gereux lorsqu’il est utilisé avec un autre.

• L’outil ne doit être réparé ou entretenu par le personnel qualifié seulement; toute

maintenance effectuée par une personne non qualifiée pourrait entraîner des

risques de blessure. Pour obtenir le numéro du centre de service D

WALT le plus près,

composer le 1 800 4-D

WALT (1 800 433-9258) ou consulter le site Internet

http://www.dewalt.com.

• Ne pas utiliser le niveau ou le théodolite en présence d’un enfant, ni autoriser les

enfants à utiliser ces instruments afin d’éviter les blessures graves aux yeux.

• Ne pas retirer ni abîmer les étiquettes d’avertissement.

• S’assurer de bien déposer l’instrument sur une surface de niveau afin de l’empêch-

er de tomber et de s’endommager ou de blesser l’utilisateur.

AVERTISSEMENT : Ce produit contient des produits chimiques, y compris le plomb, qui,

dans l’État de la Californie, sont reconnus comme étant susceptibles de causer le cancer,

d’entraîner des malformations congénitales ou d’être nocifs pour le système reproductif.

Se laver les mains après chaque utilisation.

• Éviter tout contact prolongé avec la poussière soulevée par cet outil ou autres out-

ils électriques. Porter des vêtements de protection et nettoyer les parties exposées

du corps à l’eau savonneuse. S’assurer de bien se protéger afin d’éviter d’absorber par

la bouche, les yeux ou la peau des produits chimiques nocifs.
