10. Repeat Steps 5 through 9 to confirm the
calibration of the side beams and
proceed to the next step.
11. Rotate the tool around 90 degrees
and position the front laser beam on the
vertical surface. Compare the height of
this beam with the height of the calibrated
side beams. If the height of this beam
matches the height of the side beams,
calibration is complete.
12. The goal of the next step is to position
the front beam at the same height as the
last mark to be made in the previous
steps or at the same height as the
calibrated side beams.

13. Insert screwdriver into the front
calibration port. Locate the calibration
screw and rotate it in a clockwise
direction to the raise the beam or in the
counter-clockwise direction to lower
the beam.
14. Turn the tool and check the height
of the front beam again.
15. Repeat steps 12 steps through 14 until
the front beam matches the height of the
two calibrated side beams.
Plumbing a surface
1. Position tool close to the surface to
be plumbed.
2. Turn on tool.
3. Measure distance A at a point relatively
close to tool and make a note of
the distance.
4. Measure distance B at a point further
away from tool and make a note of
the distance.
Note: The greater the distance between the
two points of measurement, the greater
the accuracy.
Applications
5. Compare distance A with distance B. If
distance A equals distance B, then the
surface is plumb. If distance A does not
equal distance B, then the surface is not
plumb and should be corrected.
Transferring points with the plumb beam
1. Mark the point to be transferred (labeled
A in this illustration).
2. Use the Mounting accessory or a Tripod
to position the plumb down beam over
point A.
3. The plumb up beam will transfer this point
along a perfectly vertical axis to point B.
4. Mark point B.
Note: This process may be reversed.
Plumb Transfer
1. Adjust the height of tool using the
mounting accessory or a tripod so that
the horizontal beam hits a reference point
(labeled A in this illustration).
2. Rotate tool around its mounting axis to
position the front level beam at a point of
interest (labeled B in this illustration).
Note: It is possible to use the beam as a
leveling instrument without marking a line
