Leica Geosystems AG, CH-9435 Heerbrugg, hereinafter referred to as Leica
Geosystems, is responsible for supplying the product, including the user man-
ual and original accessories, in a safe condition.
The person responsible for the product has the following duties:
•To understand the safety instructions on the product and the instructions
in the user manual.
•To ensure that it is used in accordance with the instructions.
•To be familiar with local regulations relating to safety and accident preven-

from one region and/or country to another.
1.5 Hazards of Use
DANGER
Risk of electrocution
Because of the risk of electrocution, it is dangerous to use poles, levelling
staffs and extensions in the vicinity of electrical installations such as power
cables or electrical railways.
Precautions:
▶Keep at a safe distance from electrical installations. If it is essential to
work in this environment, first contact the safety authorities responsible
for the electrical installations and follow their instructions.
WARNING
Distraction/loss of attention
During dynamic applications, for example stakeout procedures, there is a dan-
ger of accidents occurring if the user does not pay attention to the environ-
mental conditions around, for example obstacles, excavations or traffic.
Precautions:
▶The person responsible for the product must make all users fully aware of
the existing dangers.

8 Safety Directions

WARNING
Inadequate securing of the working site.
This can lead to dangerous situations, for example in traffic, on building sites
and at industrial installations.
Precautions:
▶Always ensure that the working site is adequately secured.
▶Adhere to the regulations governing safety, accident prevention and road
traffic.
CAUTION
Not properly secured accessories.
If the accessories used with the product are not properly secured and the
product is subjected to mechanical shock, for example blows or falling, the
product may be damaged or people can sustain injury.
Precautions:
▶When setting up the product, make sure that the accessories are correctly
adapted, fitted, secured, and locked in position.
▶Avoid subjecting the product to mechanical stress.
WARNING
Incorrect fastening of the external antenna
Incorrect fastening of the external antenna to vehicles or transporters poses
the risk of the equipment being broken by mechanical influence, vibration or
airstream. This may result in accident and physical injury.
Precautions:
▶Attach the external antenna professionally. The external antenna must be
secured additionally, for example by use of a safety cord. Ensure that the
mounting device is correctly mounted and able to carry the weight of the
external antenna (>1 kg) safely.
WARNING
Lightning strike
If the product is used with accessories, for example masts, staffs, poles, you
may increase the risk of being struck by lightning.
Precautions:
▶Do not use the product in a thunderstorm.
Safety Directions 9

DANGER
Risk of being struck by lightning
If the product is used with accessories, for example on masts, staffs, poles,
you may increase the risk of being struck by lightning. Danger from high vol-
tages also exists near power lines. Lightning, voltage peaks, or the touching of
power lines can cause damage, injury and death.
Precautions:
▶Do not use the product in a thunderstorm as you can increase the risk of
being struck by lightning.
▶Be sure to remain at a safe distance from electrical installations. Do not
use the product directly under or close to power lines. If it is essential to
work in such an environment contact the safety authorities responsible for
electrical installations and follow their instructions.
▶If the product has to be permanently mounted in an exposed location, it is
advisable to provide a lightning conductor system. A suggestion on how to
design a lightning conductor for the product is given below. Always follow
the regulations in force in your country regarding grounding antennas and
masts. These installations must be carried out by an authorised specialist.
▶To prevent damages due to indirect lightning strikes (voltage spikes)
cables, for example for antenna, power source or modem should be pro-
tected with appropriate protection elements, like a lightning arrester. These
installations must be carried out by an authorised specialist.
▶If there is a risk of a thunderstorm, or if the equipment is to remain
unused and unattended for a long period, protect your product additionally
by unplugging all systems components and disconnecting all connecting
cables and supply cables, for example, instrument - antenna.
CAUTION
Inappropriate mechanical influences to batteries
During the transport, shipping or disposal of batteries it is possible for inappro-
priate mechanical influences to constitute a fire hazard.
Precautions:
▶Before shipping the product or disposing of it, discharge the batteries by
running the product until they are flat.
▶When transporting or shipping batteries, the person in charge of the prod-
uct must ensure that the applicable national and international rules and
regulations are observed.
▶Before transportation or shipping contact your local passenger or freight
transport company.
WARNING
Exposure of batteries to high mechanical stress, high ambient tempera-
tures or immersion into fluids
This can cause leakage, fire or explosion of the batteries.
Precautions:
▶Protect the batteries from mechanical influences and high ambient temper-
atures. Do not drop or immerse batteries into fluids.
10 Safety Directions

WARNING
Short circuit of battery terminals

ters, transponders, two-way radios or diesel generators
Although the product meets the strict regulations and standards which are in
force in this respect, Leica Geosystems cannot completely exclude the possibil-
ity that function of the product may be disturbed in such an electromagnetic
environment.
Precautions:
▶Check the plausibility of results obtained under these conditions.
CAUTION
Electromagnetic radiation due to improper connection of cables
If the product is operated with connecting cables attached at only one of their
two ends, for example external supply cables, interface cables, the permitted
level of electromagnetic radiation may be exceeded and the correct functioning
of other products may be impaired.
Precautions:
▶While the product is in use, connecting cables, for example product to
external battery, product to computer, must be connected at both ends.
