5.  Move the tripod within .6m of target “A”.  Make a mark where

the cross meets target “A” and label as “A2”.

6.  Rotate the laser 180º and make a mark where the cross

meets target “B” and label as “B2”.

7.  Calculate (A1-A2) - (B1-B2) = E.  If the absolute value of E is

above 1mm, the laser accuracy is out of tolerance and 
calibration is required. 

Self-Check and Calibration

The instrument has two calibration apertures.  Aperture “A” adjusts

the horizontal axis.  Aperture “B” adjusts the vertical axis.

Notes regarding adjustment: 

•  

Use a 3mm hexagon tool for adjustment.

•  The adjustment of each axis may influence the other.  When 

making fine adjustments in the left/right direction horizontally, 
the front and back direction vertically may change.  When 
adjusting the front/back direction vertically, the left and right 
direction will possibly change.  Adjustments may need to be 
checked and repeated alternately.

•  The adjustment of the self-calibration screw cannot exceed 

four turns in either direction.

•  If the laser accuracy cannot be adjusted through self-calibration,

please contact an authorized repair facility, or contact Johnson
