Product Manual

• Object - An object is the buried item you are

trying to locate, such as a manhole cover, valve

box lid, property stake, etc. It is required that the

object have iron (ferrous) content to be detected

by the Mag Horn.

• Field – the magnetic field surrounding the object

being detected

• Sensitivity – the strength of field the locator is

set to detect; increasing the sensitivity allows the

locator to detect smaller or deeper objects

• Searching Signal - the lowest setting on the Mag

Horn that will allow you to locate your target. This

setting will depend upon several factors such as

size, depth and orientation of object, and interfer-

ence of other objects that may be around the

target.

• Peak Signal - The point where the magnetic field

is the strongest. Usually this is directly over the

object
