Care and Transport: Transport 6.1
Transport in the field: When transporting the equipment in the field, always make sure that you
• either carry the product in its original container,
• or carry the tripod with its legs splayed across your shoulder, keeping the attached product upright.
Transport in a road vehicle
Never carry the product loose in a road vehicle, as it can be affected by shock and vibration. Always carry the product in its container and secure it.
For products for which no container is available use the original packaging or its equivalent.
Shipping
When transporting the product by rail, air or sea, always use the complete original Leica Geosystems packaging, container and cardboard box, or its equivalent, to protect against shock and vibration.
Shipping, transport of batteries
When transporting or shipping batteries, the person responsible for the product 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.
Field adjustment
Exposing the product to high mechanical forces, for example through frequent transport or rough handling, or storing the product for a long time may cause deviations and a decrease in the measurement accuracy. Periodically carry out test measurements and perform the field adjustments indicated in the User Manual before using the product.
