Default Using incidence meter

I have a Robart incidence meter and it states that you need to level the fuselage so that the datum line is parallel to the ground. How do you determine the datum line on ARF's when that information is not generally provided? Or can you just level the fuselage say with the tail plane parallel to the ground and then do all measurements from there? I am only using it to make sure the wings etc are close before a maiden flight.

cheers
