Operating the Scanner

The HST-X04 scanner is designed for manual use, and is straightforward to operate.
Once the HST-X04 scanner is setup for the size of pipe or plate you wish to inspect
(see section "Assembling the Scanner" on page 12), use the following procedure to
operate the scanner.
To operate the scanner
1. Hold the scanner above the inspection surface, and then align the scanner so that
the inspection area is centered between the probes.
Depending on the type of probe or transducer used, some fine-tuning can be required
to adjust the distance between probes. Also, some situations may require the surface
being inspected to be off-centered between the probes (see section "Installing a Probe
Holder" on page 13).
All carbide wear pins should be flush with the wedge surface.
2. Next, push or pull the scanner in the desired inspection direction.
