DEPTHS ARE INCORRECT
STEP 1 OF 3
Verify calibration is correct above-ground.
a. Measure out 10 feet (3 m) from the center of your housing to the inside
edge of the locator.
b. Test at multiple distances to ensure a good calibration. If incorrect, bring
your transmitter housing to a clean environment and recalibrate.
STEP 2 OF 3
Check jobsite for active interference.
A source of active interference is anything that is emitting a signal that could
potentially interfere with your locator.
With the transmitter off, first walk the bore path. Any spikes in signal strength
are a sign of interference that could skew readings.
STEP 3 OF 3
Check jobsite for passive interference.
Passive interference is any sort of object that distorts the signal from your
transmitter before it reached the locator. A common source of passive
interference is rebar reinforced concrete. Passive Interference can distort the
signal from your transmitter and skew readings.
