5. Position the instrument on the other side of the door opening directly behind point b. Allow
the instrument to self-level and ensure the vertical laser line aligns with points a and b.
6. Mark the center of the vertical line at the upper edge of the door opening (point c2).
7. Measure the distance between points c1 and c2 at the upper edge of the door opening
that indicates the actual deviation of the instrument from the vertical plane.
If the actual deviation is greater than the allowable deviation for the corresponding Ceiling
Height in the table below, the instrument must be serviced.
