MODES OF OPERATION
Your Fisher Model TW-6 allows two modes of operation:
INDUCTIVE and CONDUCTIVE. In the INDUCTIVE mode, the
Transmitter induces the electromagnetic field around the
object sought. The Transmitter radiates this field through both
soil and water. INDUCTIVE is subdivided into two modes: (1)
On the handle for LOCATING and (2) Transmitter placed on the
ground directly above and in line with the conductor for
TRACING and the path of the conductor.
The CONDUCTIVE mode operates when you connect the
Transmitter directly to an exposed portion of the pipe or cable
in question with the Ground Plate Assembly, or with the
Coupling Clamp, or the Ground Rod Assembly.
