Operating Instructions


Use caution when drilling, nailing or cutting into walls, floors and ceilings which may contain electrical wiring or pipes. These items may be detected by the Stud Finder in the same manner in which studs are detected. Because studs are normally spaced 16 inches or 24 inches apart and are 1-1/2 inches wide, beware of anything closer together or of a different width. Always turn off the power when working near electrical wires.
