Laser Beam Positioning
Be careful not to shine the laser beam directly into the person's eyes.
Doing so may result in vision loss.
If the laser beam is not correctly positioned, distortion, where the image may be
enlarged or reduced, or ghost shadows may occur and lower the image quality.
Be sure to align the laser beam properly.
1. Align the vertical beam with the center of the face. (To prevent horizontal expansion
of the image)
2. Align the horizontal beam in a straight line with the Frankfort line on the patient's
face. Use the Horizontal Beam button on the control panel to position it.
Check to see that the horizontal beam aligns with the patient's face horizontally.
3. Align the Canine Teeth Beam with the center of the patient's canines. Use the
Canine Teeth Beam level to adjust the position of the beam.
