WARNING! Direct connection to live conductors is POTENTIALLY LETHAL.

Direct connections to live conductors should be attempted by fully qualied

personnel only using the relevant products that allow connections to energized

lines.

WARNING! The transmitter is capable of outputting potentially lethal

voltages. Take care when applying signals to any pipe or cable and be sure to

notify other technicians who may be working on the line.

WARNING! Reduce audio level before using headphones to avoid damaging

your hearing.

WARNING! This equipment is NOT approved for use in areas where hazardous

gases may be present.

WARNING! When using the transmitter, switch o the unit and disconnect

cables before removing the battery pack.

WARNING! The RD8200SG locator will detect most buried conductors but

there are some objects that do not radiate any detectable signal. The RD8200SG,

or any other electromagnetic locator, cannot detect these objects so proceed

with caution. There are also some live cables which the RD8200SG will not be

able to detect in Power mode. The RD8200SG does not indicate whether a signal

is from a single cable or from several in close proximity.

WARNING! Batteries can get hot after prolonged use at full output power.

eCert and Self-Test

The RD8200SG locator is safety equipment which should be regularly checked

to ensure its correct operation.

eCert provides a thorough test of the RD8200SG’s locating circuitry, and supplies

a Radiodetection Calibration Certicate when a positive test result is obtained.

To run an eCert, the locator should be connected to an internet-enabled PC on

which the RD Manager Online software is installed.

Refer to the RD Manager Online operation manual for further details. Additional

purchase may be required.

RD8200SG locators incorporate an Enhanced Self-Test feature. In addition to the

typical checks for display and power functions, the RD8200SG applies test signals

to its locating circuitry during a Self-Test to check accuracy and performance.

We recommend that a self-test is run at least weekly, or before each use.
