Safety directions

Main hazards of use/, continued

DANGER:
Because of the risk of
electrocution, it is very

dangerous to use reflector poles 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:
By surveying during a
thunderstorm you are at risk

from lightning.
Precautions:
Do not carry out field surveys during
thunderstorms.

CAUTION:
Be careful when pointing a
total station towards the sun,

because the telescope functions as a
burning glass and can injure your
eyes and/or cause damage inside the
EDM or the EGL light guide.
Precautions:
Do not point the telescope directly at
the sun.

WARNING:
During target recognition or
stakeout procedures there is

a danger of accidents occurring if the
user does not pay attention to the en-
vironmental conditions around or
between the instrument and the
target (e.g. obstacles, excavations or
traffic).
Precautions:
The person responsible for the
instrument must make all users fully
aware of the existing dangers.

WARNING:
Inadequate securing of the
surveying site can lead to

dangerous situations, for example in
traffic, on building sites, and at
industrial installations.
Precautions:
Always ensure that the survey site is
adequately secured. Adhere to the
regulations governing accident
prevention and road traffic.
