	Safety Rules for Multi-Detector
	Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may
! WARNING
	result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

The multi-detector’s ability to detect objects is affected by the proximity of other equipment that produce strong magnetic or electromagnetic fields, and by moisture, metallic building materials, foil-laminated insulation materials and/or conductive wallpaper.

The multi-detector’s ability to detect wood substructures (studs) is also affected by inconsistency on the thickness of the surface material, such as plaster and lath.

It is possible that there may be metal, wood or wiring or something else, such as plastic pipes, beneath the scanned surface that is not detected.

!WARNING The detector alone should not be relied on exclusively

to locate items below the scanned surface.

Use other information sources to help locate items before penetrating the surface. Such additional sources include construction plans, visible points of entry of pipes and wiring into walls, such as in a basement, and standard 16” and 24” stud spacing practices.

! WARNING	Before penetrating a
	surface (such as with a

drill, router, saw or nail), always shut off the electrical power, gas and water supplies. Cutting, drilling, etc… into these items when operational can result in personal injury.

Functional Description

Optimal operation of the multi-detector is possible only when the operating instructions and information are read completely, and the instructions contained therein are strictly followed.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

INTENDED USE

The multi-detector is intended for the detection of metals (ferrous and non-ferrous metals, such as pipes, metal studs and rebar), wood studs and joists, and “live” wires/conductors in walls, ceilings and floors.
