1.6 Laser Classification
1.6.1 General
General The following chapters provide instructions and training information about laser safety
according to international standard IEC 60825-1 (2007-03) and technical report IEC TR
60825-14 (2004-02). The information enables the person responsible for the product
and the person who actually uses the equipment, to anticipate and avoid operational
hazards.
1.6.2 Rugby 620
General The rotating laser built into the product produces a visible laser beam which emerges
from the rotating head.
The laser product described in this section is classified as laser class 2 in accordance
with:
• IEC 60825-1 (2007-03): "Safety of laser products"
• EN 60825-1 (2007-10): "Safety of laser products"
These products are safe for momentary exposures but can be hazardous for deliberate
staring into the beam. The beam may cause dazzle, flash-blindness and after-images,
particularly under low ambient light conditions.
Rugby 620:
CAUTION
From a safety perspective, class 2 laser products are not inherently safe for the eyes.
Precautions:
1) Avoid staring into the beam.
2) Avoid pointing the beam at other people.
According to IEC TR 60825-14 (2004-02), products classified as laser class 1,
class 2 and class 3R do not require:
• laser safety officer involvement,
• protective clothes and eyewear,
• special warning signs in the laser working area
if used and operated as defined in this User Manual due to the low eye hazard
level.
National laws and local regulations could impose more stringent instructions
for the safe use of lasers than IEC 60825-1 (2007-03) and IEC TR 60825-14
(2004-02).

1.7 Electromagnetic Compatibility EMC
Description The term Electromagnetic Compatibility is taken to mean the capability of the product
to function smoothly in an environment where electromagnetic radiation and electrostatic discharges are present, and without causing electromagnetic disturbances to
other equipment.
WARNING
Electromagnetic radiation can cause disturbances in other equipment.
Although the product meets the strict regulations and standards which are in force in
this respect, Leica Geosystems cannot completely exclude the possibility that other
equipment may be disturbed.
CAUTION
There is a risk that disturbances may be caused in other equipment if the product is
used with accessories from other manufacturers, for example field computers,
personal computers or other electronic equipment, non-standard cables or external
batteries.
Precautions:
Use only the equipment and accessories recommended by Leica Geosystems. When
combined with the product, they meet the strict requirements stipulated by the guidelines and standards. When using computers or other electronic equipment, pay attention to the information about electromagnetic compatibility provided by the manufacturer.
CAUTION
Disturbances caused by electromagnetic radiation can result in erroneous measurements.
Although the product meets the strict regulations and standards which are in force in
this respect, Leica Geosystems cannot completely exclude the possibility that the
product may be disturbed by intense electromagnetic radiation, for example, near
radio transmitters, two-way radios or diesel generators.
Precautions:
Check the plausibility of results obtained under these conditions.
CAUTION
If the product is operated with connecting cables attached at only one of their two
ends, for example external supply cables, interface cables, the permitted level of electromagnetic radiation may be exceeded and the correct functioning of other products
may be impaired.
Precautions:
While the product is in use, connecting cables, for example product to external battery,
product to computer, must be connected at both ends.

WARNING
WARNING
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Leica Geosystems for compliance
could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference
to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged
to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the

2 Description of the System
2.1 System Components
General description The Rugby 620 is a laser tool 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 H.I. Alert system becomes
active and protects the Rugby against changes in elevation caused by movement of
the tripod to ensure accurate work.
