Move glide plate up and down the mast through its full motion, by
depressing handle.
2.3 OPTICAL ALIGNMENT HEAD
Remove optical alignment head from shipping carton.
Inspect for any damage that may have occurred during
shipment i.e. lens, case, etc..
Attach optical alignment head to the mast glide plate by
aligning mounting holes of glide plate with the holes in
the optical head. Insert ¼” x 20 x ¾” allen head machine

enclosed in
the accessories box.
NOTE: Install batteries and secure line laser
cover per instruction that accompany
Line laser assembly.

to the approximate center of
travel of mast.
Activate the line laser and turn the line laser unit until you can see
the projected laser line on the front edge of the optical head.
Projected laser line should line up with the front edge of the optical
head.
If line does not line up with the front edge of optical head, rotate
line laser assembly right or left until projected laser line is parallel
with front of optical head. Tighten screws.
It is important that periodical checking of calibration of the vehicle
alignment line laser be performed, to assure customer satisfaction.
