Important Safety Notice - Stanley IntelliSensor Pro METAL Mode D'emploi

7.0 Scaning / Detecting
Following proper calibration of the stud
sensor (5.0)
1. Slowly slide the unit horizontally across the
surface in a straight line. As the sensor
gets closer to an object the outer-rings
(illustration 6) on the LCD will turn on
successively until the center "EDGE"
indicator will be shown (illustration 7) and
the unit will sound a continuous beep.
2. Use indicator graphic (illustration 2&7) and
indicator mark (illustration 1) to locate and
define object edge.
3. Continue sliding past the object. When
the indicator turns off and the unit stops
beeping the other edge has been detected.
4. Double check object location by coming
back from the other direction. Make
additional markings.
5. The midpoint of the marks indicates the
object center.

9.0 Caution on Operating
You should always use caution when nailing,
cutting or drilling in walls, ceilings and floors
that may contain wiring or pipes near the
surface. Shielded, dead or non-powered
wiring will not be detected as live
wires. Always remember that studs or
joists are normally spaced 16 inches or 24
inches apart and are 1-1/2 inches in width.
To avoid surprises, be aware that anything
closer together or of a different width may
be an additional stud, joist or fire break.
When working near AC electrial wires,
always turn off the power.
Operating Tips

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE

Insure proper detection of live wires
ALWAYS hold the IntelliSensor™Pro Metal in
the handle area only. Grasp between fingers
and thumb while maintaining contract with
your palm.
Conventional Construction
Doors and windows are commonly constructed
with additional studs and headers for added
stability. The IntelliSensor™Pro Metal detects the
edge of these double studs and solid headers and
emits and holds an holds an audio signal as it
crosses over them.

8.0 Detecting Live Wires
The live wire red LED lens (illustration 1) will
iluminate, warning when in the proximity
(typically within 4-18" distance) from a live
wire. The LCD screen will then display a live
wire icon (illustration 2) on LCD defining full
detection. Maxmium depth detection of 2".
Static electricity charges that can develop on
drywall and other surfaces will spread the
voltage detection area many inches to each
side of the actual electrical wire. To aid in
locating the wire position, scan holding the
unit 1/2 inch away from the wall surface ro
place other hand on surface approximately
12inches from sensor.
Warning: shielded wires or live wires in
metal conduits, casings, metalized walls
o r t h i c k , d e n s e w a l l s , w i l l n o t b e
detected. Always turn AC power off
when working near wiring.
The IntelliSensor™ Pro is designed to
detect 110 volts for (European version) AC in
live electrical wires. It will also detect the
presence of live wires having greater than
230volts.

10.0 Surface Differences
T h i s S c a n n e r w i l l s c a n t h r o u g h
approxiamately 1/2" - 1-1/2" common
building materials,
Including:
Gypsum drywall
Plywood sheathing
Hardwood floors
Linoleum over wood
Wallpaper
The scanner cannot scan through:
Carpeting
Foil faced materials
Ceramic tile
Cement or concrete
Metal & plaster walls
The thickness, density and moisture content
of the surface material will affect the sensing
depth Wallpaper - There will be no difference
in the function of the stud sensor on surfaces
covered with wallpaper or fabric unless the
coverings contain metallic foil or fibers.
Plaster and Lath - Unless the plaster and
lath is exceptionally thick or has metal mesh
in it there will be no problem with the unit
functioning properly.
Ceiling or Textured Surfaces - When dealing
with a rough surface such as a sprayed
ceiling, use a piece of cardboard when
scanning the surface. Run through the
calibration technique described earlier WITH
the piece of cardboard between the stud
sensor and the surface. Also, it is particularly
important in this application to remember to
keep your free hand away from the unit.
