Locating accuracy will be degraded if there are large metallic objects closer to the units than the
distance between the units is. Additionally, distance display may indicate longer distance than
actual. To avoid locating errors when large metallic objects are present, consider another drilling
location, perform offset measurement or multi-point measurement.

Locating accurately thru thick structures
ATTENTION
: Risk of locating error due to device misorientation
Locating drill points with misoriented devices may degrade locator performance.
Alignment errors are highlighted when locating drill points thru thick structures. When using
Transmitter PKT2 with Receiver PKR2 for straight drilling, the device bottoms should face each
other on parallel planes both sides of the structure. When wedge pieces are used for angled
drilling, the angle of both transmitter and receiver should be the same and they should be at the
same angle to the horizontal. If necessary, use a spirit level to align the wedges.
