The collimating telescope 3 is attached to the machine base 2 to which the projector 1 is attached via an adjusting mechanism (not shown). Next, a target 4 for aligning the optical axis is set up at a predetermined distance l (for example, 100 m), and a light beam 5 from the projector 1 is set on the target 4.
Irradiate. The operator looks into the collimation telescope 3 with the light beam 5 irradiating the target 4 and adjusts the adjusting mechanism so that the cross mark 6 provided in the field of view of the collimation telescope and the irradiation point of the light beam 5 coincide with each other. adjust.

The target 4 for optical axis alignment is the projector 1, the collimation telescope 3
When the optical axis is aligned by setting the position at a distance of 1 more, when the distance between the objects to be measured is l '(> l), an error of e'is generated and The distance is l ″ (<

Further, when the optical axis is aligned, the optical axis of the projector 1 and the optical axis of the collimation telescope 3 become closer to parallel as the distance l is increased, which is caused by the change in the distance to the object to be measured. The error is reduced. Therefore, the installation distance of the target 4 for optical axis alignment becomes a value of 100 m or more. For this reason, it is inevitable that the optical axis alignment work will be a large-scale work, and it will be a collaborative work by a plurality of people, and will require a vast site. Further, when the distance is increased, there is also a problem that the intersection point on the target from the projector cannot be confirmed depending on the magnification of the collimation telescope.
