Stanley Stud Sensor 300
The Stud Sensor 300 uses electronic signals to locate the center of studs, joists or live AC wires through drywall
or other common building materials. Once the center of a stud has been detected in one pass across the
surface, the Stud Sensor 300 gives a visual display and sounds an audible tone. A marking channel allows you
to easily note the stud center and edges on the wall.
The Stud Sensor 300 will not detect objects in concrete, mortar, block or brick work, carpeting, foil faced
materials, metallic surfaces or ceramic tiles. The Stud Sensor 300 is not designed to locate non-ferrous or plastic
objects such as pipes.
Note: Read all instructions prior to operating the Stud Sensor 300 and DO NOT remove any labels from the
tool.
WARNING:
Protect Your Eyes, Wear Safety Goggles.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Note: While calibrating, the Stud Sensor 300 must not be placed directly over a stud, dense material such as
metal, or over a wet or newly painted area, or it will not properly calibrate.

When it detects the stud center, the "Center" icon will appear on the LCD and an audible tone will
sound. Use the marking channel located at the top of the unit to mark the stud center.
Detecting Live AC Wires

The live wire red LED will illuminate, the "AC" icon will appear on the LCD, and the Stud Sensor 300 sounds
an audible tone, warning when in the proximity (typically within 10cm - 46cm along the surface) from a live
wire.
Note: Static electrical charges that can develop on drywall and other surfaces will spread the voltage detection
area many inches on each side of the actual electrical wire. To aid in locating the wire position, scan holding the
unit ½" away from the wall surface or place your other hand on the surface approximately 30cm from sensor.
