FOREWORD
Thankyou forpurchasingKOLIDATotalStationKTS-462R10L！
Thismanualis applicableforKOLIDATotal StationKTS-462R10L.
1. FEATURES
1.CompleteFunction
KOLIDA KTS-462R10L has complete surveying program and the functions of data record and
parametersetting,issuitableforprofessionalsurveyandconstructionsurvey.
2.SecureDigitalmemorycard（SDcard）
With the advantages of large memory storage, rapid transmission data system, removable and
secure functions, various surveying data could be easily saved in the SD card and moved into
computer through the port of lap top computer and card reader. Please do not move out the SD
card when writing or reading data into/ from it, otherwise the surveying data can be damaged. 1
MB space inSD cardmaycontains 15,000data.
3.PowerfulMemoryManagement
Verylargememoryandtheenhancedfile managementsystemcanhelp youeasilyrealizethe
functionofaddition,deletion,modification,andtransmissionofthedata.
4.AbsoluteEncodingDisk
With absolute encoding system, measurement can be started immediatley after booting up the
instrument. No azimuth informationisever lostevenin suddenpower break.
5.ReflectorlessDistanceMeasurement
The reflectorless function of KTS462R10L enables you to carry out long-distance and
high-accuracy measurement directly towards various objects ofdifferent materials and colors (like
wall of building, telegraph pole, wire, cliff, mountain, clay, wooden stake, etc.) It‟s the best solution
to measurethehard-reachorunreachabletarget.
6.AbundantSurveyingPrograms
KTS-462R10Lnotonlyhasthebasicsurveyingprogramss(angle,distance,coordinate
measurement)butalsoequippedwithspecialsurveyingprograms,forexample,REM,Offset,
MLM,Staking-out,RoadDesign,PointProjection,Setoutline,etc,to meetthedemandof

2. PRECAUTIONS
1. Never place instrument directlyon the ground，as sand or dust maycause damage to the screw
holesorthecenteringscrewonthebaseplate.
2. Beforecarryonthemeasurement,we need to haveanoverallcheckwiththeinrsrument, suchas:
battery, parameters,andinitialsettings.
3. When working in a sun-baked (rainy or wet) day, please use the surveying umbrella to avoid
damage.Besides,donotaimthetelescope atthesun withoutafilter.
4.Whentheinstrumentisnotinuse,putitinthecaseandkeep the instrumentfromshock,dustand
humidity.
5. If there is great difference between the temperature in working area and that in storage place,
leavetheinstrumentinthecasetillitisusedtothetemperatureofoutsideworkingarea.
6.Cleanitssurfacewithawoolenclothafterusing.Iftheinstrumentgetswet,dryitimmediately.
7. Turn the power off before removing the battery, otherwise it may cause damage to internal
circuit. When place KTS into its case, firstlypower off it. Make sure that the inside of the carrying
caseandKTSaredrybeforeclosingthecase.
8. In case of not using total stationfor along time, rememberto recharge thebattery once a
month.
9.Cleanexposedopticalpartswithdegreasedcottonorlenstissueonly!
10. During transporting, the instrument should be placed in its carrying case. It will be better to
place some cushionaroundthecase to keep theinstrumentfromthe damage of shock.
11. If there is something wrong on the instrument, please do not disassemble the instrument unless
youareaprofessionalservicetechnician.
12.NeveraimthelaserbeamofKTS-462R10LTotalStationathumaneyes.
SAFETYGUIDE
InteriorEDM（VisibleLaser）
Warning:
The total station is equipped with an EDM of a laser grade of 3R/Ⅲa, which could be recognized
bythe following labels:
On the vertical tangent screw, there is a label shows “3ALaserProduction”. A similar label is on the
oppositeside.
This product is classified as Class 3R laser product, which is coordinated with the following
standards. IEC60825-1：2001“SAFETY OF THE LASER PRODUCT”.
Class 3R/Ⅲa laser product: It is harmful to observe laser beam continuously. User should avoid
sighting the laser at the eyes. It can reach 5 times the emitting limit of Class2/ II with a wavelength
of400nm-700nm.

Warning：
Continuouslylookingstraightatthelaserbeamisharmful.
Prevention:
Donotstareatthelaserbeam,orpointthelaserbeam to others‟ eyes. Reflected laser beam is a
validmeasurementtotheinstrument.
Warning:
When the laser beam is shooting at prism, mirror, metal surfaceor window, thereflected laser
beamisalsoharmfultoeyes.
Prevention:
Do not stare at the locations of laser reflection. When the reflectorless function is enabled on
EDM,donotstarebesidethelaserbeamorprism.Observatetheprismviathetelescopeonly.
Warning:
IncorrectapplicationofClass3Rlaserequipmentisverydangerous.
Prevention:
To avoid being hurt, youmust payparticular attention to the precaution measuresand keep it
undercontrolwithinthedistanceofpossibledangeraccordingtostandardIEC60825-1:2001.
ThefollowingexplainthekeysectionsoftheStandard:
Laser instrument of Class 3R is applicable outdoors and in construction field (measurement,
defininglines,leveling).
a) Onlythose persons who are trained with related course and authenticated are allowed to install,
adjust,andoperatethiskindoflaserinstrument.
b)Relevantlaserwarningsymbolsshouldbeeasilyidentifiedwithintheoperatingarea.
c)Preventanypersonto lookstraightatoruseopticalinstrumenttoobservethelaserbeam.
d) Toprevent the harmcausedby laser, block thelaserbeamatthe end ofthe working route. When
the laser beam exceeds the limit area (harmful distance*) and when there are motivating persons,
stoppingthelaserbeamisamust.
e)Theopticalpathofthe lasershouldbe sethigherorlower thanthelineof sight.
f) When the laser instrument is not in use, take care of it properly. The person who is not
authenticatedisnotallowed touse.
g) Prevent the laser beam from irradiating plane mirror, metal surface, window, etc., especially
bewareofthesurfaceofplanemirrorandconcavemirror.
* Harmful distance means the maximum distance between the start point and the point which the
laser is weakened to a degree that doesn‟t harm people.
* The harmful distance of built-in laser unit is 1000m (3300ft). When the operation is beyond this
rangeandlaserbeamis weakenedtoClass1R,directstaringatlaserbeamislessharmful.

PART1PREPARATIONFORMEASUREMENT
1. UNPACKINGANDSTORAGE OFINSTRUMENT
· UnpackingInstrument
Placethecaselightlywiththecoverupward,andunlockthecase,takeout theinstrument.
·StoringInstrument
Cover the telescope well, place the instrument into the case with the vertical clamp screw and
circularlevelupward(Objectivelens toward tribrach),tighten theverticalclamp screwand lock the
case.
2. SETTINGTHE INSTRUMENTUP
Place the instrument on the tripod. Level and center the instrument precisely to ensure the best
performance.Usetheprofessionalsurveyingtripod.
1. Settingupthetripod
①Makesurethelegsarespacesatequalintervalsandtheheadisapproximatelylevel.
②Setthetripodso the center of thehead is directlyoverthe surveyingpoint.
③Step onthe tripodshoesto makesure the tripodisfirmlyfixed onthe ground.
2. Installingtheinstrumentonthetripod
①Placetheinstrumentcarefullyonthetripodhead
②Supporting the instrument with one hand, tighten the centering screw to fix it to the
screwonthebaseplateoftheinstrument.
3. Roughlylevelingtheinstrumentbythecircularlevel
①Turntheleveling screwAand Bto movethe bubblein the circularlevel,inwhichcase the
bubble is located on a line perpendicular to a line running through the centers of the two
levelingscrewbeingadjusted.
②RotatelevelingscrewCtocenterthebubble.

4. Levelingbytheplatelevel
①Rotate the instrument horizontally by loosening the Horizontal Clamp Screw and place
theplatelevelparallelwith thelineconnectinglevelingscrewAandB,andthenbringthe
bubble tothecenteroftheplatelevelbyturning theleveling screwsAandB.
②Rotate the instrument 90º(100g) around its vertical axis and turn the remaining leveling
screw orlevelingCto centerthebubbleonce more.
③Repeat the procedures ①② for each 90º (100g) rotation of the instrument and check
whetherthebubbleiscorrectlycenteredin alldirections.
5. Centeringby usingtheopticalplummet
1) Settripod
Lifttripodtosuitableheight,ensureequal lengthofthreelegs,spread and make tripodheadparallel
to theground,and place it rightabove the measurement stationpoint.Propup tripod on theground
andfixoneleg.
2) Install instrumentand collimate thepoint
Set instrument carefully on tripod, tighten the centralconnecting screw and adjust optical plummet
to makethereticledistinctly.Holdtheothertwounfixed legswith bothhands andadjustpositionof
these twolegs through observation ofopticalplummet.Asitapproximatelyaims atthestationpoint,
make all three legs fixed on the ground. Adjust three leg screws of the instrument to make optical
plummetcollimatepreciselytothe stationpoint
