Features • Manual Modes • The Rugby 55 can be switched to manual modes for either axis with cross-axis self leveling, or it can be switched to full manual mode for dual sloped setups. • The axis that has been switched to manual mode can be clearly identified by the X and Y LED’s at the top of the membrane switch panel X-axis, self-levelingY-axis, manual mode X-axis, manual modeY-axis, self-leveling X-axis, manual modeY-axis, manual mode Rugby 55 Presentation – January 2007

  5. Features • Scan-90 positioning • Quickly moves the scanning or stationary beam in 90° steps around the four sides of the Rugby. (Press the CW or CCW plus the Scan or RPS button together to activate.) • Selectable head speeds • Set the head speed to 0, 2, 5 and 10 rps to meet the job requirements. • Beam down positioning • When zero rps is selected, the beam moves automatically to the beam down position.

  10. Basic Operation • Button Functions Off/On Power Button – Press to turn the Rugby On and Off. Rotation Speed Button – Press to change the rotating head speed from 0, 2, 5 and 10 rps. When switching from 10 to 0 rps, the beam will move to the “Beam Down” position so that it can be used for setup over a point. Scan Button – Press to change the scan width from 10°, 45°, 90° and 180°. Rugby 55 Presentation – January 2007

  12. Basic Operation • Button Functions Rotation Direction Buttons Press to rotate the scanning or stationary beam in a clockwise or counter-clockwise motion. Scan-90 Function – The CW and CCW rotation buttons can be used in combination with the Scan and RPS buttons to quickly move the beam in 90° steps around the laser. Moves the scanning beam in 90° steps or + Moves the stationary beam in 90° steps or + Rugby 55 Presentation – January 2007

  13. Basic Operation • Button Functions Head Tilt Arrow ButtonsIn the upright position, press to tilt the plane of laser light in manual mode. In the laydown position, press to move the vertical plane and the split beam for alignment when doing layout. Remote – The remote control has the additional Up and Down arrows if using full manual mode and both axis need to be adjusted independently. Pressing these together willput the Rugby in Sleepmode.

  14. Y X H.I. Y X H.I. Basic Operation • The LED Indicators The X/Y LED’s flash green when leveling and turn on solid when leveled. The LED’s are red when the axis is in manual mode. Both the X/Y LED’s will flash red and an audio beep will sound if the unit is bumped and H.I. alert is activated. The low battery LED is normally off. It will start to blink slowly when the batteries get low. Rugby 55 Presentation – January 2007

  15. 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 55 has a large rubber seal for the battery compartment to keep out moisture in all kinds of conditions.

  16. Basic Operation • The Remote Control The remote control contains all the same buttons as the laser except for the power button. In addition the remote has the Up and Down arrow buttons for controlling the X-axis in manual mode. As noted previously, the remote can be used to put the Rugby into Sleep Mode by pressing the Up and Down buttons together. Rugby 55 and Remote Control Rugby 55 Presentation – January 2007

  17. The rotating beam created by the Rugby 55 provides a 360° plane of laser light up to 500 ft. (150 m) radius from the laser when used with a sensor. The rotating beam is used to create a horizontal line on a wall or as a level reference for hanging ceilings or taking grade readings. In the laying down position the rotating beam creates a vertical plane for layout work, as well as transferring points from the floor to the ceiling. Basic Operation • The Rotating Beam Rugby 55 Presentation – January 2007

  18. Attach the Rugby to the wallmount bracket. After mounting the first strip of ceiling trim at the desired elevation, attach the wallmount bracket to the grid. Press the power button to start the Rugby. The Rugby will always start up in automatic mode. Allow the unit to self-level. Adjust the Rugby so that the rotating beam is at the desired height below the ceiling grid. View the rotating beam on the target and adjust the grid to the beam. Basic Operation • Installing Ceiling Grid Rugby 55 Presentation – January 2007

  19. Place the Rugby in the laydown position on a flat level surface. Press the power button to start the Rugby. The Rugby will always start up in automatic mode. Allow the unit to self-level. Press the RPS Button to zero rps. The head will rotate and will point downward to plumb over a point. Press the RPS or Scan button, then roughly align the Rugby to a second control point either on the rotating axis or with the top plumb beam Use the head positioning arrows on the laser or on the optional remote for fine adjustment. Basic Operation • The Laydown Position Rugby 55 Presentation – January 2007

  20. Set up the Rugby on a tripod or flat level surface. Press the power button to start the Rugby. The Rugby will always start up in automatic mode. Allow the unit to self-level. Press the RPS Button to set the head speed to the highest speed – 10 rps. Set the rod on top of an elevation stake and adjust the receiver on the grade rod to the on-grade position. Once adjusted and centered in the plane of laser light, additional elevation readings or checks can easily be taken. Basic Operation • Use with a Receiver Rugby 55 Presentation – January 2007

  21. Safety Directions • Safety Directions – Read your manual! Your manual contains important safety directions. Read and understand these safety precautions before operating the laser for the first time. Rugby 55 Presentation – January 2007
