Carrying Case
a. General. The carrying case for the theodolite
consists primarily of two sections with inserts that serve
to cushion the instrument during movement. The case
is provided with a gasket which with a desiccant
container protects the instrument from moisture while
not in use.
b. Carrying Case Desiccant. Open the carrying
case and check the color of the circles on the package;
they should be blue in color. If the color is pink, it
indicates the presence of moisture and the desiccant
must be dehydrated or replaced.
c. Carrying Case Inserts.

the inserts.
