The Bore-To feature on the Mag 6S is very powerful.
Operators can expect to receive good right-left
steering, pitch, and roll information as far out as 100ft.
It is important to note that the depth is only a
reference.
As distance between the transmitter and
receiver decreases, the accuracy increases.
Never cross existing utilities while in the Bore-To mode.
Expose and verify visually while crossing utilities.
For best Bore-To results,
the operator should locate
up to the area that can’t
be walked over and mark
both the FLP and RLP*
before moving the
receiver to the other side.
Once on the other side,
place the receiver directly
in-line and proceed with
drilling using the right-left
steering bar to keep the
bore path in-line.
Receiver
should always
face away from
the drill rig
*It is best to place an object, like a traffic cone, at both the front
and rear locate points so that a visual alignment can be viewed.
Projected Depth
Projected depth tells you what depth the head will be at when it
reaches the receiver if the operator maintains the indicated
pitch.
