Note:
Take note of where the head is positioned. Mark positions with a
wax pencil if necessary so you can return to it when prompted.
Another way to mark start position is to mount a laser pointer to your
Revolution head. Mark the point on the wall, floor, ceiling, etc. of where
the laser is pointing. When the ORACLE™ prompts you to return the
Revolution head to the start position, you can simply maneuver the
head so the laser points to the same location. This assures the head is
starting out in the same position.
