21、hall be provided in the device for compensating within 0.1 deg through a slope range of 1.5 degfrom horizontal. The method for device compensation shall be clearly explained in the operating instructions.6.1.10 If the horizontal aim is to be accomplished by reference between devices on opposite side
22、s of the vehicle,the means provided for referencing lateral alignment between devices (sight line, string, or equivalent) shallbe located as shown in Figures 1, 2, 3, and 4.6.1.11 The spirit level or other means provided for indicating vertical aim shall be capable of showing at least a0.1 in (2.5 m
23、m) deviation with a 1 in (25 mm )1change in level.6.1.12 A horizontal aim scale shall be provided with graduations in steps of not more than 2 in (51 mm) from straightahead to at least 8 in (203 mm) left and right.6.1.13 The instructions covering the use of the device shall include those items shown
