batteries. The batteries are charged

 

 

with the included charger. The

 

 

lithium ion battery has a 2 – 3 year

 

 

life and is replaceable.

 

 

The LT56 can also run on AC

 

 

power if the batteries are not

 

 

charged.

 

 

Visibility

The visibility of the laser lines on the floor will improve significantly if the LT56 is raised above the floor 150 - 500 mm (6 - 18 inches)

Calibration Check

It is recommended to occasionally check the calibration of the LT56. Horizontal calibration check

Find a room with a minimum 5m (16’) width

Turn on both horizontal and vertical lines

Place LT56 near one of the walls (fig.1.)

Mark horizontal line on near wall A

Rotate the LT56 and mark horizontal wall B.

Move tripod to location near the other wall (fig 2)

Align LT56 so that horizontal line is aligned directly on point B

Rotate the LT56 and mark the horizontal line above/below on on Point A. Call this C.

The difference between A and C is the accuracy of 2x the distance between the walls

Example. Distance between the walls is 5m (16’) and distance between A and C is 3mm (1/16”), then accuracy is 1.6 mm at 10m (1/16” at 32 ft).

Vertical Calibration

Check

Find a door jamb about 2m / 6.5’ high.

Mark point A at 2.45m / 8’ from door

jamb

• Turn on LT56 vertical line and place it at point A toward the door jamb.

• Use the vertical line to mark point B under the door jamb, mark point C at the top of the door jamb and point D at 2.45m / 8’ beyond the door jamb.

• Move the LT56 to point D and align the vertical line with points A, B and D.

Mark the point where the vertical line is on top of the door jamb near point C.

If the line is within 1mm / 1/32”, the vertical line is in tolerance.
