Follow the Level manufacturer's instructions for proper setup.
Be sure it is adjusted level in all directions. Readjust level if it
or tripod is bumped or disturbed.
B. Make sure yoke tubes rest on column base plate.
C. First place the Level target at the highest corner of the lift.
Place it on the runway center line within 6" of yoke tube,
whichever one is located over highest point. This will be
referred to as target "A" position. Beginning with target "A"
