Rugby 100-1.5.0en
Basic operation
Using Manual Operation with
Grade
Setting up the Rugby with manual
grade can be accomplished by one
person, but it is generally easier using
two people working together. The
Rugby should be set up so that the
operator is looking at the switch panel
and the area to be graded beyond the
laser.
• Set up the Rugby at one end of the
area to be graded, put the Rugby in
manual mode, and take a reading
using your Rod-Eye receiver
directly in front of the laser (more
than three feet/one meter from the
laser for best results).
• Have a second person move to a
control point at the other end of the
jobsite and adjust the height
Manually increase (decrease) the
grade of the Rugby until a beep is
heard on the receiver
• The second person should hold the
grade rod still and indicate to the
operator when the beam is too high
or too low by observing the audio
tones and arrow indications on the
Rod-Eye receiver.
• Adjust the manual grade until the
center bar and/or solid tone is
heard from the receiver.
