Locating concealed objects

Notice:

• Before using the appliance for this task, first test it by locating a pipeline

or electrical power cable at a known position.

• In cases of doubt, always ask a qualified building contractor.

Attention!

Should the appliance find a live wire carrying alternating current,

appears in the display. Under no circumstances should you drill at this

location! Danger of electric shock!

- 8 -

The locating of concealed objects is the same in all three modes (STUD =
wood, AC WIRE = live electric power cables, METAL = metal).

1. Slide the function switch

2. Slide the material switch

q

to „DETECTOR“.

3

to STUD, AC WIRE or METAL.

3. First of all, the appliance must be calibrated. Place it flat against the wall
where you wish to search for concealed objects.

4. Press and hold the PUSH button

z

until the arrows on the display
disappear and two short beeps are heard. The appliance has now
adjusted itself to the wall thickness. Continue to keep the button PUSH

z

pressed down.

5. Move slowly along the wall with the appliance. As the arrows in the dis­play move closer to the centre of the display, you are getting closer
to the concealed object. When the arrows touch and a constant signal
tone is heard, mark this position (see Fig. 4).

Fig. 4

6. Now repeat the procedure, but this time approach the object from the
other side. As soon as the signal tone sounds, mark this position (see Fig. 4).

The concealed object runs between these two positions.

- 9 -

Locating wood objects

1. Proceed with the search for wood objects as described in the section
„Locating concealed objects“.

2. When the Multi-Purpose Detector has found an object, mark it.
To be sure that the object is wood, slide the material switch

3. Now search in the same position for metal. Should the Multi-Purpose
Detector. not find anything, then the object is wood. Should it find
something, then the object is metal.

In this case, search again at a different position in the mode „STUD“ and re­peat steps1 to 3.

3

to METAL.

Laser marking

The appliance contains a Class 2 laser. NEVER direct the laser beam
at people or animals. NEVER look directly into the laser. The laser can
cause serious eye damage.

You can use laser marking for the exactly horizontal positioning of pictures,
shelves etc.

1. Place the function switch

q

to „LASER“. A laser line is projected.

Horizontal laser line

Attention!

Exercise caution with the holding pins. They are sharp and can cause injuries.

1. Hold the Multi-Purpose Detector horizontally against the wall and align it
with the assistance of the spirit level 8. The air bubble must stand between
the two marking lines.

2. Push both of the holding pins (
The pins lightly bore themselves into the wall so that the appliance
does not fall to the floor. The laser throws a horizontal line onto the wall.

5 + e

) buttons firmly downwards.

Note:

The holding pins do not function on stone or metal walls.
The walls must have a soft upper surface.
