How do you adjust stabila levels?
To check the “level” or “horizontal” vial’s accuracy, place the level on any flat surface. Make a mark on the flat surface at one end of the level. Read the bubble & remember where it is. Turn the level 180 degrees (end to end), placing the level right on the line drawn from the original end placement.
How do you calibrate a level?
How to Calibrate Engineers Levels
- Clean the bearing surface, and the underside of the level to remove any dirt or dust.
- Note the position of the bubble after it has settled, (settling time can be up to 15 seconds) and then turn the level by 180° and place back onto the surface in the same position as before.
Are all STABILA levels made in Germany?

How do you calibrate an adjustable level?
Set your level on the table with the edge with the screw facing up. Use a small Phillips screwdriver to turn the screw, very slightly, to calibrate the spirit level. As you turn the screw, you will see that the bubble will begin to move one way or the other. Keep turning the screw until the bubble is centered.

How much is 1 degree on a level?
1 degree = 60 minutes and 1 minute = 60seconds. (1° = 60′ and 1′ = 60″). As an example, if we were to lift one end of a level vial by 5 degrees and the bubble moved by 2mm, this would give a sensitivity of 5°/2mm.
How do you fix level bubbles?
Apply an amount of cement the size of a pencil eraser to both ends of the bubble cylinder. Use the stick to smear the cement all the way around both ends of the cylinder. Check the alignment of the bubble level again Let the cement dry for 24 hours. Put the plastic cover back on the bubble cylinder.
Are Stabila levels made in China?
From the United States. For years Stabila has been one of those reliable brands, you pay but you get top German made quality. This level is made in China, I have nothing against Chinese products but for someone who wanted a German tool and got a Chinese one instead this is a disappointment.
