ALWAYS EXCAVATE WITH CARE
C.Scope Locators detect services radiating a detectable signal. There may be some services that do not radiate a signal and cannot be located.
Do not use the equipment outside of the temperature range -10˚C to +50˚C (14˚F to 122˚F) as the batteries may cease to function adequately.
Geographical conditions such as hills and mountains may effectively screen signals and prevent a detectable Radio signal.
The Locators alone will not always locate every service. Use a Signal Generator wherever possible.
The Signal Generator leads MUST NOT be connected directly to a live service.
Beware of multiple services. The Locators will not always indicate services that are close together or one above the other.
Do not use the equipment in areas where hazardous gases may be present.
Check for underground services before using the Earth Stake.
Performance may be impaired by unusually strong electromagnetic fields.
Do not hold the Locator Loudspeaker close to the ear for extended periods.
It is recommended that the operation of the Locator and Signal Generator is regularly checked (see pages 38-40
).
