Setting up the Equipment  

 

 

This method allows centering to .0005 in. (0.0127 mm). 

 

1.

 

Adjust the A-514 Self-Centering Bore adapters for both 

the laser and target. 

Using the L-514GS or A-514GL Leg-Setting Gage, set the 

adapter legs to the desired bore radius. See 

Setting the Legs 

for the A-514GS

 on Page 12 and 

Setting the Legs for the A-

514GL

 on Page 12 for more information on this procedure. 

2.

 

Insert the L-708 Laser and A-512 Target into their 

adapters. 

When using the small adapter, hold the laser from the back 

end and tip it slightly upward, inserting the adapter and 

laser at an angle. The weight of the laser will pull it down 

after releasing. The medium and large bore adapters are 

provided with counterweights to hold the laser in place so 

the unit doesn’t tip.    

3.

 

Insert the laser and target assemblies into the two 

reference bores. 

Attach the weighted insertion rod to the target/adapter 

and tip the unit forward to insert into the bore. The 

weight of the handle forces the target to tip backward and 

seat the  target legs into the bore, centering the 

adapter/target.  Ensure that the target cable is at the 6 

o’clock position and release the handle as soon as the 

target is in place in the bore end. The target centers itself 

securely.  

Repeat for the laser/adapter assembly. 

Note:

 

To remove the target, lift the handle up and slide the target/adapter out of the bore.  

4.

 

Use the laser’s angular adjustments to set/tilt the laser to zero on the target, establishing the 

reference bore centerline.
