8. Calculate the value R. ➥ The value R should be less than 3 mm. ➥ The value R should be less than 1/8". 5.9.3 Checking perpendicularity (horizontal) 1. Position the tool so that the lower plumb beam coincides with the center of a reference cross marked in the middle of a room at a distance of about 5 m from the walls.
8. Mark the new position on target plate T2. 9. Read the distance D between the two marks on target plate T2. If the difference D is greater than 3 mm, the tool must be returned to a Hilti repair center for adjustment.
