Move to the location you want to measure depth. Stay at least 15 feet away from the tranSmItter.
Move the
reCeIver left to right across the path until the cable is located.
1. Mark the path on the ground as precisely as possible using the Null method.
2. Place the reCeIver on the ground with the LCD meter facing up. Position the unit so that the
Bubble Level on top of the meter is centered (45º).
3. Pull the
reCeIver away from the cable path (at 90º to the cable path) keeping the Bubble Level
centered.
4. When the receiver indicates a Null reading, mark the location of the receiver’s foot.
5. The distance between the
reCeIver and the cable path is the depth of the pipe or cable. A false
depth reading may be caused by nearby buried metallic objects, such as a second cable, pipe,
sewer, fence or railroad track.
6. Conrm the depth measurement by repeating the above steps on the opposite side of the pipe or
cable.
7. A variance greater than 5 inches in depth measurement may indicate interference from adjacent
cables, pipes or other objects.
