Features & Specifications To come up against an electric cable while drilling a hole in a wall can have catastrophic consequences. Likewise, drilling into gas, water pipes or central heating pipes can be extremely hazardous. With a handy metal detector it can now be determined beforehand whether there are metal objects to be found in a wall, ceiling or floor.

Assembly hints 1.3 Soldering Hints : 1- Mount the component against the PCB surface and carefully solder the leads 2- Make sure the solder joints are cone-shaped and shiny 3- Trim excess leads as close as possible to the solder joint REMOVE THEM FROM THE TAPE ONE AT A TIME ! DO NOT BLINDLY FOLLOW THE ORDER OF THE COMPONENTS ONTO THE TAPE.
