3) Place the LTW level in the same location on the slider, using the calculated stack of feeler 

gages if necessary. Adjust the vial to read level, remember, there is a limited amount of 
travel in the vial adjustment, so if the springs start to compress too much, spin the level and 
attempt to use the adjustment with it facing the opposite direction. Here we have adjusted 
the vial centered (camera angle makes it look slightly to the left).

4)  Spin the level 180º and the bubble will be a specific amount off to one side. Raise or lower 

the vial accordingly to place the bubble half way between the two readings.
