that
The ST-510 transmitter is intended for use with a
or
SeekTech locator/reciever. SeekTech locators are
diagnostic tools that sense electromagnetic fields
emitted by objects underground. They are meant to aid
the user in locating these objects by recognizing
characteristics of their field lines and displaying them
on the screen. As electromagnetic field lines can be
distorted and interfered with it is important to verify the
location of underground objects before digging.
Exposing the utility is the only way to verify its
existence, location and depth. Ridge Tool Co., its
affiliates and suppliers, will not be liable for any
injury or
consequential damages sustained or incurred by
reason of the use of the SeekTech ST-510.
