Bosch Multi-Detector DMD4 - Manual (Page 3)

-3-
The multi-detector’s ability to detect objects
is affected by the proximity of other equipment
that produce strong magnetic or
electromagnetic fields, and by moisture,
metallic building materials, foil-laminated
insulation materials and/or conductive
wallpaper.
The multi-detector’s ability to detect wood
substructures (studs) is also affected by
inconsistency on the thickness of the surface
material, such as plaster and lath.
It is possible that there may be metal, wood or
wiring or something else, such as plastic
pipes, beneath the scanned surface that is not
detected.
The detector alone should
not be relied on exclusively
to locate items below the scanned surface.
Use other information sources to help locate
items before penetrating the surface. Such
additional sources include construction plans,
visible points of entry of pipes and wiring into
walls, such as in a basement, and standard
16” and 24” stud spacing practices.
Before penetrating a
surface (such as with a
drill, router, saw or nail), always shut off
the electrical power, gas and water
supplies. Cutting, drilling, etc… into these
items when operational can result in personal
injury.
Optimal operation of the multi-detector is possible only when the operating instructions
and information are read completely, and the instructions contained therein are strictly
followed.
