PRECAUTIONS REGARDING SAFETY Safety Precautions (Must be followed) The following items are intended to prevent possible injury to the user or other people and/or damage to the instrument before it occurs. These safety precautions are important to the safe operation of this product and should be observed at all times. Distinctive Displays The following displays are used to distinguish precautions by the degree of injury or damage that may result if the precaution is ignored.
PRECAUTIONS REGARDING SAFETY・ ・ WARNING Do not stare into the laser beam directly as this may result in damage to your eyes. R-300 is a Class II Laser product. The reflectorless type is a Class IIIa (3R) laser product. Do not look into the laser radiation aperture directly as this may result in damage to your eyes. Never use the telescope to view intense light such as direct sunlight or sun-light reflected through a prism as this may result in loss of sight.
P1 PRECAUTIONS REGARDING SAFETY・ ・ CAUTION For security, please do the opening inspection and inspection every a fixed period and adjustment. When the laser beam enters eyes, an unexpected accident might be caused by the blink of eyes. Establish the laser product to avoid the height of eyes of a driving person and walker. Establish an instrument so that laser beam does not hit a reflection thing as a mirror and a glass window. The refection beam of the laser is also harmful in the human body.
Check with your local solid waste officials for details for recycling. ・ P2 Usage Precautions Surveying instruments are high-precision instruments. In order to assure that the Electronic Total Station R-300 series product which you have purchased will provide long-lasting maximum performance, the precautions in this manual must be followed. Be sure to follow these instructions and use this product properly at all times.
P3 PRECAUTIONS REGARDING SAFETY・ ・ ③ There is a possibility that synthesized values are calculated and the distance may become longer or shorter than the actual one when the operator measure the target of slope or sphere or rugged shape. ④ There is a possibility that the instrument cannot calculate correctly by collecting the reflected laser beam from a man or a car that comes and goes in front of the target. When using Reflector sheet, set the Reflector sheet to have its surface be approx.
the case and storing them, apply electrically resistant tape to the poles of the battery. Storing the battery and charger as is may result in fire or burn injury due to short-circuit. P4 PRECAUTIONS REGARDING SAFETY Avoid storing the instrument in places subject to extreme high, low or radically fluctuating temperature. (Ambient temperature range during use: -20°C to +50° C) Distance measurements may take longer when atmospheric conditions are poor such as when heat shimmer is present.

3 PREPARATION FOR SURVEYING・ ・ [Target sighting by Auto focus] The Auto focus of R-300 series has following two modes. 1. Normal mode : Pressing AF button focuses on the target. 2. Continuous mode : Pressing AF buttons for two seconds beeps, and releasing the key enters into the Continuous mode. This mode enables you to perform the Auto focus approx. for one minutes only by sighting the telescope and chasing the target.
3 PREPARATION FOR SURVEYING [Auto focus :Target sighting by Continuous mode] ① Loosen the telescope clamp and horizontal clamp screws. ② Point the telescope at the target using a collimator. ③ Tighten the above two screws. ④ Adjust the eyepiece. ⑤ Look through the telescope and then press the AF button for two seconds to beep, and release the key to enter into the Continuous mode. ⑥ Stay the reticle accurately on the target using telescope and horizontal tangent screws.
3 PREPARATION FOR SURVEYING [Target sighting by Manual focus] ① Loosen the telescope clamp and horizontal clamp screws. ② Point the telescope at the target using a collimator. ③ Tighten the above two screws. ④ Adjust the eyepiece. ⑤ Look through the telescope and then rotate the AF ring and stop it where the target can be seen clearly and the target image does not move in relation to reticle even if your eye is vertically and horizontally moved.
4 TURNING THE POWER ON 4 TURNING THE POWER ON 4-1 Turning the Power On and Off Pressing the [POWER] key causes the initial screen. (The [POWER] key is also used to turn the power off.) After a few seconds, it turns to Electronic vial screen. Move the vials to center by adjusting the leveling screws. Pressing the [ENT] key views the angle and distance measurement screen. The Auto Power Off function will automatically turn the power off if no operations are performed for approximately 10 minutes.
4 TURNING THE POWER ON 4-2 Adjusting LCD Contrast Press [F4] while holding down the Illumination key to access the screen for adjusting LCD contrast.
