WARNING!!  DO NOT allow the laser beam to be aimed at yours or anyone else's eyes.  The laser emits a very concentrated light beam that can cause permanent blindness.  Use extreme care in handling the laser assembly to make sure it is not going to be inadvertently aimed at someone's eyes or face.  DO NOT LOOK DIRECTLY AT THE LASER LENS WHILE IT IS ENERGIZED!

  1. Adjust the focus of the laser light by aiming it at a wall or a similar flat surface about from a distance of about 10 feet and using a screw driver to adjust the size of the reflected light on the wall.  DO NOT look directly at the laser light source while it is energized!!

    a.  To tighten the focus of the laser beam, turn the lens clockwise.

    b.  To loosen the focus of the laser beam (make the dot bigger, less concentrated), turn the lens counter-clockwise.
