Tracking “On-the-Fly”
If you are running at 0% (0°) pitch over level ground, the predicted depth will be the actual depth. In this
case, all locating can be done at the FLP while the tool is moving.
Once the transmitter has been found and its heading is on line, position yourself the distance of one rod
length in front of the FLP on the intended bore path with the receiver facing the drill and sitting level on
the ground.

Depth readings may be taken at the FLP or at the LL. It is necessary to hold the trigger in to view the
depth or predicted depth and to send the depth reading to the remote display.
Do not hold the trigger in when ahead of the FLP. It is possible that you will set an incorrect reference
which causes a ghost Locate Line – this can be erased by referencing again at the FLP.
