beam.
The laser should ideally be no more than 2” (5 cm) directly above the
center point of a perfectly round light beam, as shown in Figure 5-2:
Figure 5-2. The ideal position of the laser is no more than 2” (5 cm) directly
above the center point of a perfectly round light beam.
In its ideal position, the laser path is parallel to the path of the light
and will stay 2” (5 cm) above the center point of the beam at any throw
distance or mirror position.
If the laser becomes out of position, you might need to align it as
shown in the section titled “Technobeam Laser Aiming Device™” on
page 6-19.
However, the decision of whether or not to align the laser is entirely up
to you. If the laser strays from its optimal position, but it gives you
enough accuracy for your needs, you do not have to align it.
