Important Notice
The SR-20 is a diagnostic tool that senses electromag-
netic fields emitted by objects underground. It is meant
to aide the user in locating these objects by recognizing
characteristics of the field lines and displaying them on
the screen. As electromagnetic field lines can be dis-
torted and interfered with, it is important to verify the lo-
cation of underground objects before digging.
Several utilities may be underground in the same
area. Be sure to follow local guidelines and one-
call service procedures.
Exposing the utility is the only way to verify its ex-
istence, location, and depth.
Ridge Tool Co., its affiliates and suppliers, will not be
liable for any injury or any direct, indirect, incidental
or consequential damages sustained or incurred
by reason of the use of the SR-20.
