electrical wires.

WARNING: Do not expose hand-held wall scanner or battery

to excessive heat such as sunshine, ﬁre or the like.

WARNING: Modiﬁcations not authorized by the manufacturer

may void user's authority to operate this device.

WARNING: The detector alone should not be relied on

exclusively to locate items below the scanned surface. Under

certain circumstances, the scanner may not identify all objects or

the exact location of objects. 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

3

English

into walls, such as in a basement, and standard 16" (40 cm) and 24"

(60 cm) stud spacing practices.

WARNING: You should always use caution when nailing,

cutting or drilling in ceilings, walls and ﬂoors that may contain

wiring or pipes near the surface. Shielded, dead or non-powered

wires will not be detected as live wires. Remember that studs or

joists are normally spaced 16" (40 cm) or 24" (60 cm) apart and are

usually 1-1/2" (38mm) in width. Beware of anything closer together

or a different width. Always turn the power off when working near

electrical wires. Also, shut off gas and water supplies.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury and electric shock,

always turn off power when working near electrical wires. Metal

shielded wires or those in metal conduit will not be detected. Use

extreme caution in these circumstances or whenever live AC wiring

is present. Test the functionality of the AC, detect on a well known

power supply prior to measurement.

WARNING: Live wires deeper than 2" (50.8 mm) from the

surface, in plastic conduit, behind plywood sheer wall or

metallic wall coverings, cables operating at DC current or wires

used in telecommunications and computer systems may not be

detected. Wires that are not live may be detected as metal objects.

WARNING: Do not use the tool to detect AC voltage in un-

insulated, exposed or free wires. Do not use as a substitute for a

volt meter.

WARNING: Detection values can be impaired through certain

ambient conditions. These include the proximity of other equipment

that produce strong magnetic or electromagnetic ﬁelds, moisture,

metallic building materials, foil laminated insulation materials or

conductive wall paper or tiles. Use of transmitting systems such as

WLAN, UMTS, radar, transmitting masts or microwaves can inﬂuence

the measurements.

CAUTION: Do not use on humans or animals. This is not for

human or animal use and can cause injury if used.

CAUTION: When not in use, place hand-held wall scanner on

its side on a stable surface where it will not cause a tripping or

falling hazard. Some tools with large battery packs will stand upright

on the battery pack but may be easily knocked over.

PLASTER AND LATH

Due to the uneven thickness of plaster, it may be difﬁcult to locate

studs. It may be easier to identify the metal nail heads in the studs. If

the plaster is reinforced with wire mesh, the hand-held wall scanner will

not be able to reliably detect embedded materials behind it.

TEXTURED OR ACOUSTICAL WALLS AND CEILINGS

When scanning a wall or ceiling with an uneven surface, place thin

cardboard on the surface and scan over the cardboard.

WOOD FLOORING, WOOD SUB-FLOORING AND DRYWALL

WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry battery so

that metal objects can contact exposed battery terminals.

For example, do not place battery in aprons, pockets, tool boxes,

product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose nails, screws, keys, etc.

Transporting batteries can possibly cause ﬁres if the battery

terminals inadvertently come in contact with conductive

materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like. The US

Department of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR)

actually prohibit transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes (i.e.,

packed in suitcases and carry-on luggage) UNLESS they are properly

protected from short circuits. So when transporting individual batteries,

make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulated

from materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit.

SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR LITHIUM ION (Li-Ion)

• Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is severely

damaged or is completely worn out. The battery pack can

explode in a ﬁre. Toxic fumes and materials are created when

lithium ion battery packs are burned.

• If battery contents come into contact with the skin,

immediately wash area with mild soap and water. If battery

liquid gets into the eye, rinse water over the open eye for 15 minutes

or until irritation ceases. If medical attention is needed, the battery

electrolyte is composed of a mixture of liquid organic carbonates

and lithium salts.

Important Safety Instructions for All

Battery Chargers

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: This manual contains important

safety and operating instruc tions for battery chargers.

• Before using charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings

on charger, battery pack, and product using battery pack.

WARNING: Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get inside

charger. Electric shock may result.

CAUTION: Burn hazard. To reduce the risk of injury, charge only

D

e

WALT rechargeable batteries. Other types of batteries may burst

causing personal injury and damage.

NOTICE: Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged in to the

power supply, the charger can be shorted by foreign material. Foreign

materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, grinding

dust, metal chips, steel wool, aluminum foil, or any buildup of metallic

particles should be kept away from charger cavities. Always unplug the

charger from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the

cavity. Unplug charger before attempting to clean.

WARNING:

• DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with any

chargers other than the ones in this manual. The charger and

battery pack are speciﬁcally designed to work together.

• These chargers are not intended for any uses other than

charging D

e

WALT rechargeable batteries. Any other uses may

result in risk of ﬁre, electric shock or electrocution.

• Do not expose charger to rain or snow.

• Pull by plug rather than cord when disconnecting charger.

This will reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord.

• Make sure that cord is located so that it will not be stepped

on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.

• Do not use an extension cord unless it is absolutely

necessary. Use of improper extension cord could result in risk of

ﬁre, electric shock, or electrocution.

• When operating a charger outdoors, use an extension cord

suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use

reduces the risk of electric shock.

• An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or

American Wire Gauge) for safety. The smaller the gauge number

of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable, that is 16 gauge

has more capacity than 18 gauge. An undersized cord will cause a

drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. When

using more than one extension to make up the total length, be sure

each individual extension contains at least the minimum wire size.

Important Charging Notes

1. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery

pack is charged when the air temperature is between 65 °F and

75 °F (18–24 °C). DO NOT charge the battery pack in an air

temperature below +40 °F (+4.5 °C), or above +104 °F (+40 °C).

This is important and will prevent serious damage to the battery

pack.

2. The charger and battery pack may become warm to touch while

charging. This is a normal condition, and does not indicate a

problem. To facilitate the cooling of the battery pack after use,

avoid placing the charger or battery pack in a warm environment

such as in a metal shed, or an uninsulated trailer.

3. If the battery pack does not charge properly:

a. Check operation of receptacle by plugging in a lamp or other

appliance;

b. Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch which

turns power off when you turn out the lights;

c. Move charger and battery pack to a location where the

surrounding air temperature is approximately 65 °F–75 °F

(18–24 °C);

d. If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery pack and

charger to your local service center.

4. The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to produce

sufﬁcient power on jobs which were easily done previously.

DO NOT CONTINUE to use under these conditions. Follow the

charging procedure. You may also charge a partially used pack

whenever you desire with no adverse affect on the battery pack.

5. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to,

grinding dust, metal chips, steel wool, aluminum foil, or any buildup

of metallic particles should be kept away from charger cavities.

Always unplug the charger from the power supply when there is

no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug charger before attempting to

clean.

6. Do not freeze or immerse charger in water or any other liquid.

WARNING: Shock hazard. Don’t allow any liquid to get inside

charger. Electric shock may result.

CAUTION: Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason.

If the plastic housing of the battery pack breaks or cracks, return to a

service center for recycling.

Storage Recommendations

1. The best storage place is one that is cool and dry away from direct

sunlight and excess heat or cold.

2. For long storage, it is recommended to store a fully charged battery

pack in a cool dry place out of the charger for optimal results.

NOTE: Battery packs should not be stored completely depleted of

charge. The battery pack will need to be recharged before use.

the wall surface and that there is nothing such as a hand or other

object on the back surface. Press the OK button (I) to complete the

initialization process.

BASIC OPERATION

The hand-held wall scanner identiﬁes embedded materials behind a

wall surface in two steps.

During the ﬁrst pass over the wall surface, the pre-scan data mapping

occurs. The hand-held wall scanner will automatically sense and

calibrate for all embedded materials below the wall surface. When the

direction of scan is reversed, the hand-held wall scanner will display the

embedded materials identiﬁed.

The hand-held wall scanner can analyze between a 1foot to 9.8foot

(0.3m to 3 m) section of wall.

The pre-scan data mapping process can begin in any direction.

The hand-held wall scanner will automatically change to displaying

embedded materials when the initial scan direction is reversed.

The hand-held wall scanner can be used either horizontally or vertically.

Step 1. Place unit on wall.

Pre-Scan Mapping: Move in a

straight line across wall surface.

Step 2. Reverse scan direction

to display identiﬁed embedded

materials.

SCANNING PROCESS

1. The screen below will indicate that the hand-held wall scanner is

ready to start a new scan.

Main Scanning Window

The main scanning window (O) will give a graphical representation of

the embedded material identiﬁed below the wall surface.

Embedded materials identiﬁed include wood, ferrous metal, non-

ferrous metal, and plastic.

The hand-held wall scanner can also detect the presence of a metallic

item (such as a drywall screw or nail plate) in a wood stud when

Residential/Wood Stud is selected as the Construction Type. When a

metallic item is detected in a wood stud, it will be indicated as below:

Scan at several heights to locate the metallic item.

NOTE: The metal sensing is located at the bottom of the unit.

Live Electric Indication

When the hand-held wall scanner is in the vicinity of live electric, the

lightning icon will blink.

NOTE: If a power line is not live or shielded in metal conduit, it will not

be detected as live electric. The hand-held wall scanner may detect the

metal or plastic of the wire.

Construction Type

The appropriate construction type for each application can be selected

in the menu. Options include: Residential/Wood Stud, Commercial/

Steel Stud, or Concrete. Selecting the construction type that most

accurately matches the application will help improve accuracy of

detecting embedded materials.

Battery Fuel Gauge

The display on the hand-held wall scanner includes a battery

fuel gauge (R) which consists of four yellow segments that

indicate the level of charge remaining in the 12V Max*

battery pack. When the level of charge in the battery is

below the usable limit, the last segment of the battery fuel

gauge will turn red to indicate that the battery will need to

be recharged.

15

English

NOTE: The battery fuel gauge is only an indication of the charge left

on the battery pack. It does not indicate product functionality and is

subject to variation based on product components, temperature and

end-user application.

Tracking Bar

The tracking bar (S) at the bottom of the main viewing screen gives a

macro overview of the number of embedded materials located during

the pre-scan data mapping process.

The current position of the hand-held wall scanner is indicated by the

brackets and shaded area.

When the brackets reach the far left or right of the tracking bar, this

indicates the end of the data mapped during the pre-scan process. At

this point, the main scanning window (O) will also become dark.

The tracking bar can be helpful in indicating which way to move the

hand-held wall scanner to identify additional embedded materials

behind the wall surface.

Operating Tips

• Use only D

e

WALT 12V Max* lithium-ion battery.

• Ensure the D

e

WALT battery is in good working condition. If the

battery fuel gauge (R) on the main viewing screen has only one red

segment lit, the battery needs to be recharged.

• Scan both horizontally and vertically to fully map out embedded

materials behind the wall surface.

• To locate metal items in wood studs, such as nail plates or drywall

screws, scan at several different heights.

• Scan uniformly without lifting from the surface of the wall.

• Always scan SLOWLY to achieve maximum sensitivity.

• Do not touch the surface being scanned with your other hand or

any other part of the body as it could interfere with scanning.

• Refer to construction plans, visible exits of wires and pipes and

construction techniques. Studs are normally spaced either 16"

(40cm) or 24" (60 cm) apart and are 1-1/2" (38mm) wide. Doors

and windows are often constructed with studs and headers which

are closer together.

• Avoid scanning through wall surfaces which have inconsistent

density such as carpet with padding, excessively thick plaster and

lath, freshly painted walls or metallic wall coverings.

• Avoid wearing jewelry such as rings or watches. The metal may

cause inaccurate detection.

• Protect against moisture and direct sunlight.

• Do not place stickers, decals, paint or name plates, especially

metal ones, on the sensor area of the back of the tool.
