Instruccions de funcionament
The Stanley FatMax Level is designed for accurate measurement of horizontal, vertical, and 45-degree angles. Its robust design ensures reliability in demanding work environments.
Checking Horizontal Level
- Place the bottom edge of the level firmly on the surface you wish to check.
- Observe the bubble in the central horizontal vial.
- For a perfectly level surface, the bubble should be centered precisely between the two indicator lines.
Checking Vertical Plumb
- Place one of the side edges of the level against the vertical surface.
- Observe the bubble in one of the vertical vials (located at each end of the level).
- For a perfectly plumb surface, the bubble should be centered precisely between the two indicator lines.

- Fluctuacions de temperatura: Extreme temperature changes can temporarily affect vial performance. Allow the level to acclimate to the ambient temperature.
If you suspect the level is consistently providing inaccurate readings despite these checks, it may require professional calibration or replacement. Refer to the warranty information for details on accuracy guarantee.
