The MAG 6 & 8 are locating systems designed to assist
horizontal directional drill machine operators in locating
and tracking underground drill head locations and
orientations. The system consists of a transmitter, a
receiver, and a remote display.
These locating systems also offer four channel license
free radio telemetries between the receiver and remote
display. The user can easily “pair” any two receivers and
displays so that communications between the “pair” will
not be interfered by other “pairs”.
This manual is intended to provide information and
instructions on how to use these locating systems
properly. Underground Magnetics Inc. (UM) reserves the
right to improve the locating systems and the Operator’s
Manual at any time without notice.
The transmitter sends digital information of the
transmitter’s pitch, roll, temperature, and battery status
through an FM modulated RF signal.
The receiver receives this information and uses RF
signal to identify the transmitter’s status and location.
The receiver transmits the locating information to a
remote display through a radio telemetry system. A
horizontal directional drill machine operator can use
the information from the display to guide the drill head
to the desired path.

The operator must understand safety procedures
and correct operation methods before operating the
HDD and the locating system.
HDD machines can cause property damage and
personal injury upon striking underground power
lines, gas lines, phone lines, television cables, fiber
optic cables, or sewage lines. Make sure to confirm
and mark all underground utilities before beginning
operations.
Do not use the locating system near flammable or
explosive substances.
Wear proper personal protective equipment
including steel-toed boots, safety gloves, helmets,
reflective vests, and safety goggles.
Obey all local safety regulations.
This locating system is only a tool to assist the
operator to locate the drill head. It is the operator,
not the Mag locating system that is responsible for
identifying the drill head location. UM is not
responsible for any damage or loss caused by using
the Mag system. Operators should operate the Mag
system according to the manual.
If there are any questions, please contact
Underground Magnetics.
