m).
2. Place the tool on an even, level surface.
3. Unlock the pendulum and switch on the tool.
4. Position the tool with the lower beam on the center
of the cross.
5. Mark the top point of intersection of the laser lines
on the ceiling. Attach a piece of paper to the ceiling
before making the mark.
6. Pivot the tool through 90°.
NOTE
The lower plumb beam must remain on the
center of the cross.
7. Mark the top point of intersection of the laser lines
