We recommend that you check your PLS2
periodically in order to assure its accuracy.
TO CHECK LEVEL:
Choose two interior walls approximately 15’-0”
apart (see Fig. 1). You can use 2 x 4s for targets.
Turn on the PLS2 to setting #1 (level). With the
PLS2 six inches away from and facing target #1,
carefully mark the center of the line. Label this
mark A1. Swivel the laser 180º and mark the cen-
ter of the line on target #2. Label this mark B1.
Move the PLS2 six inches away from and facing
target #2. Carefully mark the center of the line.
Label this mark B2. Swivel the laser 180º and
mark the center of the line on target #1. Label
this mark A2.
You now have two centers of elevation at each
target. Carefully measure the distance between
centers of each set of marks. If there is a differ-
ence, subtract one measurement from the other.
This calibration method magnifies any error by a
factor of two. Therefore divide any difference by
two to find the true error. Your PLS2 should have
an error of no greater than 1/8in. within 30ft.
Choose a door jamb with 8’-0” clear on each side
of the door. Turn on your PLS2 laser to setting #2
(plumb). With your laser at point A, make two
marks on the floor: the first at 8’-0” from point A
centered on door header above (mark this point
B), the second 16’-0” from point A (mark this point
C). Without moving the laser, make a third mark
on the door header (mark this point D).
Move the laser to point C,
exactly
align the beam
with point B, and notice where the beam falls at
point D. If it is within a “light” 1/16” of point D, the
laser is in calibration.
