Operating Instructions

WARNING
This section contains important safe-
ty information that is specific to the ST-
305/R. Read these precautions carefully
before using the ST-305/R to reduce the
risk of electrical shock, fire, or other se-
rious injury.
SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND
INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE
REFERENCE!

ST-305/R Safety

• Read and understand this operator's
manual, and the instructions for any
other equipment in use and all warn-
ings before operating the ST-305/R. Fail-
ure to follow all instructions and warnings
may result in property damage and/or seri-
ous personal injury. Keep this manual with
the equipment for future use.
• Operating the equipment while in water
increases the risk of electrical shock.
Do not operate the ST-305/R if the opera-
tor or equipment are standing in water.
• The ST-305/R is not designed to pro-
vide high voltage protection and isola-
tion. Do not use where a danger of high
voltage contact is present.
• Always attach leads before turning
the ST-305/R on and always power off
the ST-305/R before disconnecting the
leads to reduce the risk of electrical
shock.
• Follow local guidelines and call before
digging. Locating equipment uses elec-
tromagnetic fields that can be distorted
and interfered with. More than one utili-
ty may be present in a given area. Follow
local guidelines and service procedures.
Confirm location of utilities before digging.

High Voltage Indicator

The ST-305/R is designed to withstand
up to 240 VAC between the two leads.
This protection is not intended to be
used continuously and excess current
may be forced through the ST-305/R. To
reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not
touch the transmitter, cords, or connec-
tions during this time. Use high voltage
precautions to disconnect the ST-305/R.
If the ST-305/R senses excess current, a
warning beep sounds and the High Voltage
LED on the keypad is lit.
