6.5 Locating objects consisting solely of
non-ferrous metal
1.
Switch the tool on.
Activate the non-ferrous metal detection mode in the
menus and deactivate the ferrous metal detection
mode.
The limited depth scan mode is deactivated auto-
matically.
2.
Follow the steps described in the section "Locating
objects in standard mode" (for non-ferrous metal).
6.6 Precise rebar depth measurement.
NOTE
The precise depth measurement mode can be used only
with reinforcing bars in concrete.
1.
Switch the tool on.
Activate the ferrous metals detection mode in the
menus and deactivate the non-ferrous metals de-
tection mode.
7 Care and maintenance
7.1 Cleaning and drying
1.
Use only a clean, soft cloth for cleaning. If necessary,
moisten the cloth slightly with pure alcohol or a little
water.
NOTE Do not use any other liquids as these may
damage the plastic components.
2.
The temperature limits for storage of your equipment
must be observed, especially in winter / summer.
7.2 Storage
Remove the tool from its case if it has become wet.
The tool, its carrying case and accessories should be
2.
Carefully bring the tool into contact with the surface
to be scanned and then begin to move it slowly
sideways.
When the tool approaches a rebar, the "ferrous
metal" symbol begins to blink, the status LEDs light
red and the amplitude of the signal strength indic-
ator rises and reaches maximum when the tool is
positioned over the center of the rebar. If the tool
is moved further until it is past the rebar, the status
LEDs light green and the signal strength indicator
shows a decreasing value. To obtain an exact indic-
ation of the position of the rebar, the tool must be
moved back in the opposite direction until the status
LEDs again light red and the signal strength indicator
shows the maximum value. When the tool is in the
area where maximum signal strength is indicated,
the initial depth measurement is displayed.
3.
At this point, press the "scan" button and the precise
depth measurement will then be displayed within
two to three seconds.
6.7 Limited depth scan
NOTE
This measurement mode allows rebars to be located
within a specified depth range.
NOTE
When using the tool in this mode, the preset depth must
take a clearance distance from the rebar into account.
1.
Switch the tool on.
2.
In the settings menu, select "ferrous metals" and set
the desired depth scan range in which you wish to
locate the rebars. If necessary, you can deactivate
the non-ferrous metals localization function.
3.
Press the "scan" button to select the desired max-
imum depth range (25, 50 or 75 mm; 1, 2 or 3
in).
4.
Use the tool as described in the section "Detecting
objects in standard mode" for ferrous metals. In this
scanning mode, only objects located at a depth less
than the preset measuring depth will be detected.
The last setting is memorized by the tool.
cleaned and dried (at maximum 40°C / 104°F). Repack
the equipment only once it is completely dry.
Check the accuracy of the equipment before it is used
after a long period of storage or transportation.
Remove the batteries from the tool before storing it for a
long period. Leaking batteries may damage the tool.
7.3 Transport
Use the Hilti toolbox or packaging of equivalent quality for
transporting or shipping your equipment. Make sure that
the tool is held securely in place inside the Hilti toolbox
