2.4M GRADE ROD

CAUTION! Take care not to deface the graduations on the grade rod.

The 2.4m grade rod consists of four 60cm subsections, which are slip-fitted onto one another and locked in place by Locking Detents 35 . They are graded from 0 to 62cm, 63 to 123cm, 124 to 184cm, and 185 to 245cm.
Each subsection has two sets of internally located magnets. Store the four subsections by stacking them together with these magnets. For added security, attach the Hook-and-Loop Strap 36 the 0-62cm subsection with the snap button (which should be displayed on the image), and tie the subsections together.

To Assemble the Grade Rod

Peel back the end of the Hook-and-Loop Strap 36 and separate the subsections by pulling them apart. Except for the 32-62cm subsection, the remaining three subsections are equipped with connecting members. Each connecting member has a different color:
- 31 0 to 62cm subsection
- 32 63 to 123cm subsection (black) 33 124 to 184cm subsection (yellow) 34 185 to 245cm subsection (white)
Slide the black connecting member of the 63-123cm subsection into the black compartment of 32-62cm subsection until the detent locks 35 in place.
Slide other subsections as described on the picture noting that the color of the connecting member and the color of the compartment should match.
After assembly, lightly pull on the subsections to ensure that they are securely locked in place.

Squeeze the two brake release pads 21 and lower the receiver until the top of the grade rod clears the upper rollers.
To reposition the rolling receiver over the grade rod, squeeze the two brake release pads 21 and proceed. You may release the two brake pads to lock the receiver onto the grade rod. The receiver will remain secured on the grade rod.

To Dismantle and Store the Grade Rod

NOTE: Always remove the receiver from the grade rod before dismantling it.

Push the locking detents
- 35 of each subsection and pull the parts apart slightly, remove your finger from the detent, and pull the subsection apart.
Repeat this procedure for the remaining subsections.
Stack the four subsections together for storage.

ACCURACY CHECK

IMPORTANT! The laser beam widens over a distance; therefore, ALWAYS take measurements at the center of the beam. However, for the sole purpose of accuracy check, since the distance between the instrument and the target remains constant, you may use the lower edge of the beam as a reference.

IMPORTANT! Tripod needs to stand on solid ground.
WARNING! Ground shake or impact to the mounted instrument may cause the beam position to fluctuate. Allow time for the laser beam to self-level and ensure your vertical height is maintained prior to continuing.

Position the instrument and tripod at no less than
- 15 m from the opposite wall in a dimly lit room.
Draw an accuracy check worksheet as shown below.
Position the worksheet on the opposite wall of the room so that the laser beam can be clearly marked.
- Displayed markings are exaggerated for illustration purposes.

IMPORTANT! Do not tamper with the tripod or modify the position of the worksheet during the accuracy check process

Power-ON the instrument: Rotate the Pendulum Lock/Unlock Switch 3 to the UNLOCKED Position and wait until the beam is self-levelled on the horizontal plane.
Find the directional planes of the X and Y Axis marked on the top side of the instrument.
Y-Axis [Y-0º]:
- Position the instrument as described on the image, so that the “Y” Axis Indicator 13 is directed toward the wall with the Worksheet (WS). In the “Y-0°” column of the worksheet, mark a horizontal line as close as possible to the center of the laser beam.
Y-Axis [Y-180°]: Gently rotate the instrument 180º. Mark a second line on the worksheet in the Y-180º column.
X-Axis [X-0º and X-180º]:
- Repeat Steps 6 and 7 for the X-Axis to mark X-0º and X-180º on the worksheet.
Compare the four lines by drawing a straight line along the lowest and highest reference lines. If the distance between these two lines is less than the Total allowable deviation of 9mm at 15m or 18mm at 30m, the instrument is properly calibrated.

However, if the measured deviation is more than the stated tolerances, repeat the accuracy check procedure. Should the readings persist over the allowable deviation, the instrument is OFF calibration.
