7. After completing the X calibration, press the + or >>
to change the axis and to calibrate the Y axis. When the Y LED
blinks slowly, the laser is ready to be calibrated on the Y axis.
8. If the Y axis does not have to be calibrated, press the - or
key (15) to save the calibration you have just made on X axis.
The laser will shut off. If you are not sure of the calibration and
do not wish to save it, turn the laser off with the On/Off key.
4.4 Checking Y axis
1. Rotate the laser 90 degrees so that Y is facing the wall.
2. Mark the location of the center of the beam.
3. Rotate the laser 180 degrees so that Y faces the wall.
4. Mark the location of the beam center near the first mark.
5. At 100 ft., the marks should be no more than ± 1/4" apart
(at 30m, no more than 6 mm apart). This is within the stated
accuracy of ± 1/8" at 100 ft. (± 0.01%).
6. If the marks are close enough, Y axis is within calibration.
Proceed to "Final X to Y Check." If the marks are not close
enough, Y axis needs to be calibrated.
4.5 Calibrating Y axis
The laser must be calibrated to bring the beam to the center of the
two Y marks. Read "Calibration Overview" before proceeding.
If you are still in calibration mode from the X axis, press the +
or >> key (16) to change to the Y axis. When the Y LED (21)
I
blinks slowly, it's ready to be calibrated in Y axis.
If you're no longer in calibration mode:
1. Turn off the laser.
2. While keeping "Man" (19) pressed, turn on the laser (17).
3. After the 3 LEDs blink in sequence, release Man key.
4. The X LED (20) will blink.
5. Press the + or >> key (16) to change to Y axis. Y LED (21)
I
will blink rapidly for a bit and then slowly, indicating it's ready
to be calibrated in Y axis.
If you have not moved the laser, use the Y marks made in previ-
ous steps of "Checking Y axis".

7. After completing the Y calibration, press the - or
to save the calibration you have just made on Y axis. The laser
will shut off. If you are not sure of the calibration and do not
wish to save it, turn the laser off with the On/Off key.
4.6 Final X to Y Check
As a final check of the horizontal axes, compare X and Y axes
to be sure that your adjusted calibration is within the specs of ±
1/8". The marks for X, X', Y, and Y' should be no more than
1/4" apart at 100 ft. (6mm at 30m). If X and Y are within
spec, proceed to checking Z axis.
4.7 Checking Z axis
1. Place the laser in vertical mode on a solid, stable surface
about 20 ft. away from a plumb line (plumb bob or heavy
object hanging on a string, at least 8 ft. high). You will be com-
paring the rotating beam to the plumb line. If you need to cali-
brate, the beam will be easier to see in a darkened room.
2. Use the support plate (8) for stability.
3. Turn on the laser.
4. Use either scan or rotation mode. Using the scanning beam
is easier, but if you cannot see the beam, work in rotation mode
with a detector.
5. Move the scan to the wall over the plumb line, sliding the
laser left or right to line up the beam over the plumb line. If in
rotation mode, use the < or > keys (13 or 14) to move the
beam.
6. Move the scan up and down the entire length of the plumb
line. If the beam is slanted, and not vertical like the plumb line,
the Z axis needs to be calibrated.
4.8 Calibrating Z axis
The laser must be calibrated to bring the rotating Z beam paral-
lel to the plumb line.
