4. Mark the center of the cross beams on the wall as A1.
5. Turn the laser 180° towards wall B and mark the center of the cross beams as b1 on the wall.
6. Move the laser level towards wall B and position it approximately 0.5 meters fromwall Bvv
7. Mark on wall B the center of the cross beams as b2. If the b1 & b2 are not overlapping, adjust the tripod height to make sure b1& b2overlapg
8. Turn the laser 180° towards wall A, and mark on the wall the center of the cross beams as a2.
9. Measure the distances: Δa= |a2 – a1|
10. . Δa should be no more than 6 mm.

Horizontal Beam

For this check, a free surface of approx. 10 x 10 meters is required.

1. Set up the laser on a tripod or a solid surface between two walls, A and B, approximately 5 meters apart.
2. Position the laser level approximately 5 meters from the center of the room.
3. Switch ON the self-leveling mode and press the mode button to project the horizontal line towards wall A and B.
4. Mark the center of the laser line point a1 on wall A and point b1 on wall B.
