Dimension (A) of longitudinal rod (1) and dimension (B) of transverse rod (2) must be adapted to the type of vehicle Specifications on both sides.





Position target (1) on transverse rod with scale and align to zero point on scale (2).
Secure target (1) using knurled screws (3).





Switch on laser pointer (2) with knurled screw (1).
Align laser pointer first to zero point on scale (3), then upwards to center of BMW badge (4).
In the event of a laser deviation from the BMW badge center, this must be compensated for by shifting the complete linkage in the corresponding direction.
After realigning the target, check the position of the laser again and correct if necessary.
