USER GUIDE – Using a Cross Line Laser to Hang Pictures**
TIPS & TRICKS
Simple steps for perfectly aligned pictures:
- Hold the frame against the wall so the top touches the laser line
- Measure from the top of the frame down to the hanging bracket
- Transfer that measurement below the laser line and mark lightly with a pencil.
- Drill or hammer your fixing at the pencil mark
- Keep the laser on to double‑check alignment.
- Hang the picture and check the top edge against the laser line
- Adjust slightly if needed
- Think about where you place your laser to be able to project the line across the whole wall
- Use the same horizontal line for perfect alignment
- Use the vertical line to keep columns straight, if you want to create a grid pattern
- Flashing lines = usually means the laser is out of level
- Dim the room (Close blinds or curtains) if the line looks faint
- Buy some laser enhancement glasses. RED for Red Laser or GREEN for Green Lasers
