Checking the Horizontal Leveling
Accuracy
A free measuring distance of approximately
78 ft on a firm surface between two walls A
and B is required for the check.
Mount the tool onto the holder or a tripod,
or place it on a firm and level surface close
to wall A. Switch the tool on.
Direct the horizontal laser beam against
the close wall A and allow the measuring
tool to level in. Mark the center of the laser
beam on the wall (point I).
Turn the tool around by 180°, allow it to
level in and mark the center point of the
laser beam on the opposite wall
B (point II).
Without turning the tool, position it close to
wall B. Switch the tool on and allow it to
level in.
Align the height of the tool (using the tripod
or by underlaying, if required) in such a
manner that the center point of the laser
beam is projected exactly against the
previously marked point II on wall B.
Rotate the tool by 180° without changing
the height. Allow it to level in and mark the
center point of the laser beam on wall A
(point III). Take care that point III is as
vertical as possible above or below point I.
The difference d of both marked points I
and III on wall A indicates the actual height
deviation of the tool.
On the measuring distance of 2 x 78 ft = 156
ft, the maximum allowable deviation is:
156 ft x ±0.0036 in/ft = ±9/16 in(.563).
Thus, the difference d between points I and
III should not exceed 9/16 in (max.).
Checking the Vertical Leveling Accuracy
For this check, a free measuring distance of
approx. 13 ft between floor and ceiling on a
firm surface is required.
Draw a straight line on the ceiling.
Mount the tool to the holder or a tripod.
Switch the tool on and rotate it in such a
manner that the bottom plumb beam can
be seen on the floor.
