Topcon GTS-311

Post by VANCE »

I recently got a Topcon GTS-311; the only problem is no charger for the battery or manual. I know I can get a new charger for around $225.00, but I cannot find a manual anywhere on-line. If anyone one has a charger or a manual lying around or willing to sell, please let me know
The chargers model No. BC-20BR


Thanks

Vance

I've found printable old Topcon manuals on line. "google it" ???
Also I've gone to the Radio Shack multi volt charger/ conditioner. These really work well at keeping the batteries exercised and ready to go.

Good Luck

I have looked on line for the manual, but you found it? If so where. I've spent hours looking for it.

Radio Shack, wow, thanks for that. Do you know what to ask for, i.e. model number ect.,?

Have you tried your Topcon dealer? They may have access to older manuals.

These folks are sellers on EBAY. I know that they have some manuals scanned to pdfs. They might be worth checking with to see if they have your manual

No charger, no manual, Did it have a case? perhaps warm to the touch?
