EMS Marker Location
The RD400PXL-2 EMS Receiver is designed to
locate buried conductors and 3M markers either
simultaneously or independently. Marker location
is achieved by the operator fitting an 'EMS Boot' to
the Receiver.

Fitting/Removing the EMS Boot

Warning
The EMS Boot must not be fitted or removed
while the Receiver is switched on.
Slide the EMS Boot over the end of the receiver
blade until the plug of the boot mates with the
EMS socket and the red latch engages.
To remove push the red latch and slide the EMS
Boot off the receiver blade.
