Level Checks
Always check the Up Beam and the Horizontal
Beams prior to use to make sure that the unit
is properly leveling and calibrated.
Up Beam Check
1. With the laser attached to its base, set on
a at surface inside a room. Turn the laser
ON.
2. Mark the location of the down beam on
the at surface. This will be the reference

base). Make sure that the down beam is
positioned on the reference point. Mark
the up beam location as position B.
6. Rotate the laser 90° clockwise by swivel-
ing the laser on its base (do not move the
base). Make sure that the down beam is
positioned on the reference point. Mark
the up beam location as position C.
7. Rotate the laser 180° clockwise by swivel-
ing the laser on its base (do not move the
base). Make sure that the down beam is
positioned on the reference point. Mark
the up beam location as position D.
8. Measure the distance between points A
