The compass consist of a Zinc alloy housing and a metal lid(1)
with a glass window with the Aiming line etched into it.The
window is attached to the compass housing by a vertical spring

can be turned through 180°.This allows the Window to be moved
into reading position and be folded back after use.
The compass is provided with an integrated spirit level(8).
It can be screwed on a tripod (at the back) that means often threaded fitting in the base and serve as theodolite for
simple terrain surveys.
This lens system(15) being provided with an integrated index line and an excellent magnifier allows extremely
precise reading.Problems inevitably caused by mirror reading and potential parallax errors are eliminated by
prismatic reading.
Excellent damping of the dial system ensures rapid and precise reading to the fraction of a degree.
