3 Set up an automatic level and
measure the elevation of the
automatic level above grade hub.
4 Add elevation measurement of
instrument to “cut-to-invert” from
grade hub.
5 Subtract the desired working of
elevation of laser beam above
invert.
6 Subtract the beam offset
(70 mm / 0.23 ft).
7 Calculate new rod reading.
8 Set the rod on top of the laser
and adjust the elevation of the laser
until the correct rod reading is
observed.
9 The laser beam is now at the
proper working elevation.
