Operating Instructions

DANGER
Exposing the utility prior to digging is the only way
to verify its existence, location, and depth. If exca-
vating a utility, periodically recheck the measured
depth and position to avoid damaging the utility and
to identify additional utility signals that may have
been overlooked.

Quick Start

SR-24 is used to refer to both the SR-24 and the
SR-20 throughout this manual. The SR-24 has
integrated GPS and Bluetooth technology. The
SR-20 does not, but is otherwise functionally
identical.
The SR‑24 functions by measuring an electro‑
magnetic signal and estimating the position of its
source� The SR‑24 can locate the signal transmitted
by a RIDGID SeekTech transmitter or Sonde, other
manufacturer's transmitters, or passive signals from
surrounding metallic conductors�
1� Insert four fully charged, size C, alkaline bat‑
teries into the battery compartment and turn
the knob clockwise to close�
2� Unfold the antenna mast and lock it into place�
3� Power on by pressing the Power Key
4� Set the receiver and the transmitter to the
same frequency�
5� Begin tracing the line at a logical starting place
such as the transmitter hook up point�
Note: Refer to the Active Line Tracing, Passive Line
Tracing, and Sonde Locating sections that follow
for information on how to locate buried utilities with
the SR-24.
