plane of laser light is too high or too
low, have a second person rotate the
Rotating Laser on the tripod in small
steps until the Rod Eye Receiver indi-
cates “On Grade.”
7. Enter on the Rotating Laser the required
percent of grade for each axis and allow the
Rotating Laser to level itself again.
8. Bench the machine. See the “Benching and
Operating Your Machine” procedure in this
section.
