Troubleshooting
Level seems inaccurate when flipped
Verify the level against a known reference surface. If it consistently reads incorrectly, the vials may have been damaged by impact and require professional recalibration.
Anti-slip stops are slipping on dust-covered surfaces
Wipe the surface clean and remove dust from the rubber end-cap stops to restore traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This level requires no assembly. To ensure ongoing accuracy, store the level in a stable environment away from extreme temperature swings, which can affect the liquid in the vials. If you notice a drop in performance, check that the vials are free of debris. Always use a damp, soft cloth to clean the profile; avoid using harsh chemical solvents that could degrade the end-cap materials. If the level suffers a severe impact, perform a quick verification check against a known flat surface to ensure the vials have remained calibrated.
