FAQs
Are these levels waterproof?
The vials are sealed, but the levels should not be submerged in water. Wipe clean with a damp cloth.
Can I use these levels for overhead leveling?
Yes, the Stabila 196-2 is calibrated for high accuracy in both normal and overhead (inverted) positions.
What lengths are included in the Twin Pack?
The pack includes one 60cm level and one 120cm level.
Can I replace the vials if they break?
Stabila vials are permanently fixed to maintain factory calibration and are not field-replaceable.
Are the end caps removable?
Yes, the end caps are removable to allow for flush measurement into tight corners.
Troubleshooting
Level appears to be inaccurate
Check the level against a known flat reference surface. If the vial is misaligned, check for debris on the measuring surface and ensure the end caps are fully seated.
End caps keep sliding off
Ensure that the internal clips are not obstructed by dust or debris. Push the cap firmly until you hear or feel a positive click to secure it to the frame.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These levels do not require complex setup; they are ready to use out of the box. To maintain accuracy, store the tools in a temperature-controlled environment and avoid dropping them, as impact can misalign the vials. To clean, wipe the measuring surfaces with a soft, damp cloth to remove mortar or debris, ensuring the level sits perfectly flush on surfaces. Periodically inspect the removable end caps to ensure they are seated correctly, and replace them if the anti-slip pads become worn or damaged.
