Checking and Adjusting Calibration
Calibration is your responsibility, check it often.
Although the L1-AS is calibrated at the factory and is an exceptionally rugged
laser, it is well worth the effort to check calibration before you first use it (after
shipping) and then from time to time to ensure that you are doing the highest
quality work possible. Always check calibration if the laser has been handled
roughly.
Follow the steps below to check the calibration of the laser and make necessary
adjustments.
1. Attach the laser to a stable platform or tripod approximately 100 feet from a
wall or other stable vertical surface (a telephone pole or concrete building will
work well). We will call the vertical surface the target. The tripod head or platform
must be level enough to allow you to turn the laser 360 degrees with minimal
re-leveling needed.
2.
Rotate the entire
laser so that either
direction of the cross
(X) axis (see picture) is
aimed at the target.
3.
Carefully set the
slope display counter
to 0.00 (The red stripe
on the last counter
digit should be aligned
with the pointer). Turn
the laser on and allow
it to level.
