Dead Level
TM
refers to absolute level with respect to the center of the earth. This
is what is shown with a tradition bubble level when the bubble is in the exact
center of the vial. Our Dead Level
TM
technology consists of a permanently
calibrated level setting which is always being displayed by both the bubble level
icon and the small digital angle reading in the upper right corner of the display.

Proper Measuring
1. Set the gauge flat on a reference surface such as a table saw, miter saw,
or jointer table. On a band saw or drill press the blade or bit will be the
reference surface. Keep the back of the gauge in a plane perpendicular to
the surface being measured. FIG 6
2. Turn on and press the ON/ZERO button to set the gauge to 0.0 degrees
which calibrates the reference surface.
3. Attach to the saw blade or jointer fence using the imbedded magnets. The
back of the gauge must always be kept in the same plane perpendicular to
the reference surface for all measurements. FIG 7
