Checking Level Accuracy

)

It is the responsibility of the user to follow operating instructions, and to 
periodically check the accuracy of the instrument and work as it 
progresses.

)

The Rugby is adjusted to the defined accuracy specification at the 
factory. It is recommended to check your laser for accuracy upon receipt 
and periodically thereafter to ensure accuracy is maintained. If your laser 
requires adjustment, contact your nearest authorized service center or 
adjust the laser using the following procedure.

)

Do not enter this mode or attempt adjustment unless you plan to change 
the accuracy. Accuracy adjustment should be performed only by a quali-
fied individual that understands basic adjustment principles.

5.1

Checking Level Accuracy

To check level accuracy of your Rugby, place the unit on a flat, level 
surface or tripod approximately 100 feet (30 meters) from a wall.

Checking the X-Axis

Align the X-axis so that it is square to the wall. Allow the unit to self-level 
completely (approximately one minute after the unit begins to rotate), 
and then, using your Rod-Eye receiver, mark the position of the beam 
(Position 1).

Rotate the Rugby 180°, allow it to self-level and then mark the opposite 
side of the X-axis (Position 2).

Mark the position half-way between the two marks. The X-axis is within 
its accuracy specification if the two marks are within ± 1/16” (± 1.5 mm) 
from center.
