Description of the System

2.1

System Components

General description

The Rugby 670 and Rugby 680 are semi-automatic lasers. Semi-automatic means that the laser self-levels only when in Level mode, not when grade is entered. The Rugby 670 and Rugby 680 are laser tools for general construction and levelling applications such as: · Setting forms · Checking grades · Controlling depths for excavations If set up within the self-levelling range, the Rugby automatically levels to create an accurate horizontal plane of laser light. Once the Rugby has levelled, the head will start rotating and the Rugby is ready for use. 30 seconds after the Rugby has completed the levelling, the Elevation Alert (H.I.) function becomes active and protects the Rugby against changes in elevation caused by movement of the tripod to ensure accurate work.

The Rugby 670 and Rugby 680 can also be used to create sloped planes for applications such as: · Driveways · Parking lots · Landscaping In Grade mode the Rugby checks first the position of the beam at level, then adjusts to the desired grade input. If a single grade is entered, the cross axis will continue to self-level. Once the Rugby has reached the desired grade, it does not self-level, but is monitored by Bump Alert and temperature change functions to ensure reliable grade values.

Levelling to grade screen

After grade entry for one or both axes, the Rugby waits for 8 seconds of no movement or button presses before beginning the process. The Rugby then displays the Levelling to grade screen and automatically self-levels in the horizontal plane, followed by readjusting the servo mechanism to the desired grade value. After completion, the Rugby activates the Slope/Bump Alert and Temperature Alert functions (if enabled).
 During this process, do not touch or disturb the Rugby.

Batteries

Description

The Rugby 670 and Rugby 680 can be purchased with alkaline batteries or a rechargeable Li-Ion battery pack. The following information is appropriate only to the model you have purchased.

6.1

Operating Principles

Charging / first-time use

· The battery must be charged prior to using it for the first time because it is delivered with an energy content as low as possible.
· The permissible temperature range for charging is between 0°C to +40°C/ +32°F to +104°F. For optimal charging, we recommend charging the batteries at a low ambient temperature of +10°C to +20°C/+50°F to +68°F if possible.
· It is normal for the battery to become warm during charging. Using the chargers recommended by Leica Geosystems, it is not possible to charge the battery if the temperature is too high.
· For new batteries or batteries that have been stored for a long time (> three months), it is effectual to make only one charge/discharge cycle.
· For Li-Ion batteries, a single discharging and charging cycle is sufficient. We recommend carrying out the process when the battery capacity indicated on the charger or on a Leica Geosystems product deviates significantly from the actual battery capacity available.

Operation / Discharging

· The batteries can be operated from -20°C to +55°C/-4°F to +131°F. · Low operating temperatures reduce the capacity that can be drawn; high operating
temperatures reduce the service life of the battery.

Accuracy Adjustment

About

· It is the responsibility of the user to follow operating instructions and to periodically check the accuracy of the laser and work as it progresses.
· The Rugby is adjusted to the defined accuracy specification at the factory. It is recommended to check the laser for accuracy upon receipt and periodically thereafter to ensure accuracy is maintained. If the laser requires adjustment, contact your nearest authorised service centre or adjust the laser using the procedures described in this chapter.
· Only enter the accuracy adjustment mode when you plan to change the accuracy. Accuracy adjustments should only be performed by a qualified individual that understands basic adjustment principles.
· It is recommended to perform this procedure with two people on a relatively flat surface.
