Safety Disclaimer Only trained and responsible personnel should operate high voltage equipment. Display warning labels prominently prior to and during testing. Portable holiday detectors are designed to operate and maintain an electric current output well below levels which could cause injury. However, you may experience a mild shock if the test electrode or ground is touched while the equipment is activated.

A brief description of the steps necessary to operate a SPY ® ‚ Model 780, 785 or 790 holiday detector is presented here with detailed steps following later in the manual. To operate the detector, make sure the control switch is in the OFF position (fully ccw), then install the battery.
“sees” will decrease slightly depending on ground losses and/or conditions. The model 780 holiday detector is a low voltage (1-5kv) detector designed specifically for thin film epoxy coating.sThe output voltage of this detector is normally D.C. (direct current). However, if moisture is encountered on the pipe, the detector output automatically switches to a fast pulse.
Operating Instructions Connecting Accessories The electrode wand plugs into the “front” of the detector. Push the wand in until it locks in place. It can be released by pressing the release (located near the “front” of the unit on the bottom) upwards until the wand pops out.

Controls Screwdriverhole The control knob has three positions: OFF, VOLTAGE SET, and In the OFF position all power is off, including the high voltage output. Turning the knob clockwise 30 degrees to the VOLTAGE SET position turns on the high voltage output, blinks the red LED, pulses the run tone, and turns on the display.

Battery Instructions General : The SPY ® battery is a completely sealed, rechargeable 12 volt unit. It can be used in any position and under most conditions. To Charge The Battery : Slide the charger onto the battery as far as possible. The charger will have an amber LED on while charging.
Attn: Michael Burnley Description of Equipment: Holiday Detectors Models 780, 785, 790 and accessories Holiday detectors are devices that are used to detect the presence of defects in the non-conductive coatings applied to surfaces in order to minimize ion flow from a conductive substrate. This is accomplished by attempting to create an electrical circuit by passing an electrode over the non-conductive coating.
Claims for defective parts must be made in writing within twelve (12) months after shipment of the equipment from the works of SPY ® Fast wearing and consumable parts including, but not limited to, electrodes and ground cables, are expressly excluded from the warranty.
