Vertical Beam - Plumb
Checking the vertical (plumb) calibration of the laser
can be most accurately done when there is a substantial
amount of vertical height available, ideally 30'(9m),
with one person on the floor positioning the laser and
another person near a ceiling to mark the position of
the beam. It is important to conduct a calibration check
using a distance no shorter than the distance of the
applications for which the tool will be used.

On the floor between two walls, mark a 5 ft. (1.5 m)
line that is parallel to the adjacent wall (Figure

Place the laser at one end of the line on the floor,
making sure the vertical laser beam is aligned and
centered on the line.

Using the Laser
Operating Tips
• Always mark the center of the beam created by the
laser.
• Extreme temperature changes may cause movement
of internal parts that can affect accuracy. Check your
accuracy often while working.
• If the laser is ever dropped, check to make sure it is
F
still calibrated.
• As long as the laser is properly calibrated, the laser is
self-leveling. Each laser is calibrated at the factory to
find level as long as it is positioned on a flat surface
within average ± 4° of level. No manual adjustments
are required.
• Use the laser on a smooth, flat, level, surface.
