5. After the CONSULT-II displays “ADJUST THE VERTICAL OF
LASER BEAM AIMING” turn the up-down direction adjusting
screw until “U/D CORRECT” value is set in the range of ±4.
CAUTION:
Turn the screw slowly. The value change on display is
slower than actual movement of the ICC sensor integrated
unit. Wait for 2 seconds every time the screw is turned half
a rotation.
NOTE:
Turning the screw clockwise to laser beam is downward and
counterclockwise to laser beam is upward.
6. When “U/D CORRECT” value indicates ±4, confirm that the margin of value remains within ±4 at least for
2 seconds with no equipment or hand touching the ICC sensor integrated unit.
When “COMPLETED THE VERTICAL AIMING OF LASER
BEAM” appears on screen, touch “END”.
CAUTION:
Be sure that the margin of “U/D CORRECT” is within ±4 with
ICC sensor integrated unit is untouched.
7. Confirm that “ADJUSTING AUTOMATIC HORIZONTAL LASER
BEAM AIMING” is on screen and wait for a while (maximum: 10
seconds).

PRECAUTIONS
Revision: 2007 April2007 M35/M45
SERVICE HOSES
Be certain that the service hoses display the markings described
(colored hose with black stripe). All hoses must include positive shut-
off devices (either manual or automatic) near the end of the hoses
opposite to the manifold gauge.
SERVICE COUPLERS
Never attempt to connect HFC-134a (R-134a) service couplers to a
CFC-12 (R-12) A/C system. The HFC-134a (R-134a) couplers will
not properly connect to the CFC-12 (R-12) system. However, if an
improper connection is attempted, discharging and contamination
may occur.
REFRIGERANT WEIGHT SCALE
Verify that no refrigerant other than HFC-134a (R-134a) and speci-
fied lubricants have been used with the scale. If the scale controls
refrigerant flow electronically, the hose fitting must be 1/2″-16
ACME.
CHARGING CYLINDER
Using a charging cylinder is not recommended. Refrigerant may be vented into air from cylinder’s top valve
when filling the cylinder with refrigerant. Also, the accuracy of the cylinder is generally less than that of an
electrical scale or of quality recycle/recharge equipment.
