5� Press the Power Key to turn ON the ST‑33Q
and select a frequency for locating� Check the
circuit and adjust the current� The ST‑33Q will
automatically set the frequency to 33 kHz the
first time Inductive Clamp Mode is used� After the

WARNING
Disconnect the lead clips from any external conductors
before switching the ST‑33Q to Inductive Mode. If the
lead clips are connected to an external conductor and
the ST‑33Q is switched to Inductive Mode, a warning will
appear and an operator override will be required.
When using Inductive Mode, only 8 kHz and 33 kHz
frequencies will be available for use on the ST‑33Q�
To use the ST‑33Q in Inductive Mode, perform the
following:
1� Place the ST‑33Q so the orientation mark located
on top of the ST‑33Q aligns with the target conductor
(
