The Bore

-

To feature on the 

Mag 8 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 Bore

-

To mode without 

exposing and verifying visually 
their location.

 

 

To  switch the receiver to    
Bore

-

To mode, tap the enter      

button from the main page.

 

 

To return to Walkover mode, 
simply tap enter again.

 

 

The display screen on both the 
receiver and the remote       
display will look the same.
