The Rugby 50 User Presentation
2 Rugby 50 Presentation – January 2007
Features
• Simple, one-button operation
The Rugby 50 operates with only a single button . . .
. . . making it the simplest, professional level construction laser available.
• Fully automatic
The Rugby 50 is fully automatic. Turn it on. It will self-level within its wide self-leveling range, and work can begin.
3 Rugby 50 Presentation – January 2007
Features
• Out of level indication
During normal operation, the Rugby 50 continuously self-levels.
Small vibrations and disturbances may cause an out of level condition. The rotating head will stop momentarily and the emission LED will blink until the unit re-levels and work can resume.
4 Rugby 50 Presentation – January 2007
Features
• H.I. (elevation) alert
Thirty seconds after the last leveling activity, the H.I. (height of instrument or elevation) alert function turns on and begins to monitor the leveling of the Rugby 50.
Any significant disturbance or movement of the tripod will cause the alert function to activate. The Rugby 50 will stop operation and sound an alarm to prevent possible errors.
5 Rugby 50 Presentation – January 2007
Features
• Alkaline or NiMH battery option
The Rugby 50 is available with either alkaline or rechargeable NiMH battery pack.

6 Rugby 50 Presentation – January 2007
Basic Operation
• Simple, one-button operation
With only a single button, all that is required is a relatively level tripod.
Attach the Rugby 50 to the tripod. Turn it on and allow it to self-level.
Once leveled, the Rugby 50 will provide an accurate, horizontal plane of reference.
Set the grade rod on a known elevation point and adjust the receiver to the on-grade position.
7 Rugby 50 Presentation – January 2007
Basic Operation
• The LED Indicators
The Rugby 50 membrane switch has three LED indicators.
The top, amber LED is the emission indicator. It is on when the laser is on, and it blinks when the laser is leveling.
The H.I. LED is also normally off. It will flash rapidly and an audio alert will sound when the unit has been disturbed.
The low battery LED is normally off. It will start to blink slowly when the batteries get low.

Servo Limit Alert
If the Rugby 50 has been set up in a position that is outside of the self-leveling range, the three LED’s will blink sequentially in a counter-clockwise rotation.
Temperature Alert
If the Rugby 50 has been set up in a location that is too hot or cold to safely operate the diode, the three LED’s will turn on together.

Basic Operation
• The Batteries
The alkaline option requires two D-cell batteries and the battery door.
The rechargeable option requires a rechargeable “pack” where the NiMH batteries are actually welded together to ensure longer life and better performance.
The rechargeable pack has a blue LED indicator that is on when charging and blinks when the charging is complete.
The Rugby 50 has a large rubber seal for the battery compartment to keep out moisture in all kinds of conditions.
