Description

2.1 Use of the product as directed
The Hilti PX 10 transponder is a measuring  system consisting of the PX 10T transmitter and PX 10R receiver. It is used to bring the receiver into alignment with the preset
position of the transmitter and to determine the distance between the two units. The system is capable of doing this through walls and floors. The user can thus transfer reference points from one side of grandmother, metathesis, measure its thickness. This makes it easier to determine at which point the drill bit will outcome the other reside of a wall or floor when drilling a through-hole from a marked hole-starting point. The system transfers positions hole-starting point. The system transfers positions from one side of a wall or floor to the other and helps the user to determine the required drill bit or core bit length. In conjunction with the slope adapter, the transponder can be used to determine the exit point from a given reference point and angle or, alternatively, the angle between two given points.

NOTE
Depending on the version purchased, the slope adapter and markers may not be included among the items supplied.
2.3 Measuring principle 2
The transmitter generates a magnetic field. This magnetic field is capable of penetrating, bricks, wood, concrete and steel reinforced concrete. The receiver is calibrated in such a way that it finds the center point of the projected field and determines the applicable distance by measuring the strength of the magnetic field between the two units of the tool. The slope adapter has been designed for use together with the trans pointer so that the magnetic field can be measured even when the receiver is placed at an angle to the transmitter.

NOTE
The PX 10 trans pointer is influenced by metal objects. Whereas symmetrically arranged steel reinforcement in concrete presents virtually no problem, welded reinforcement,
reinforcing mesh, flat sheet metal or solid metal columns have a very negative effect on the performance of the system.

Technical data

Right of technical changes reserved.
NOTE
The proximity of welded reinforcement, sheet metal or metal framing to the tool may have a considerable negative effect on its accuracy. When wall thickness measurements  are made through welded reinforcing mesh, the distance displayed is approx. 20% greater. At temperatures below -10 °C (14 °F) considerable inaccuracy may occur with wall thicknesses greater than 50 cm (1.64 ft).

5.2 Intended use
The PX 10 does not detect objects present in a wall and therefore cannot guarantee that the user, when drilling, will not contact electric cables, water or gas pipes or other objects. Accordingly, the greatest care and attention must always be exercised while working.
5.3 Proper organization of the workplace Avoid unfavorable body positions when working on ladders or scaffolding. Make sure you work from a safe stance and stay in balance at all times.

5.4 Electromagnetic compatibility
Although the tool complies with the strict requirement of the applicable directives, Hilti cannot entirely rule o the possibility of the tool being subject to interference caused by powerful electromagnetic radiation, leading correct operation. Accuracy must be checked by takin measurements by other means when working under conditions or if you are unsure. Likewise, Hilti cannot rule out the possibility of interference with other devices (e.g. aircraft navigation equipment).

5.5 General safety precautions
a) Check the condition of the tool before use. If the tool is found to be damaged, have it repaired at a Hilti service center.
b) The user must check the accuracy of the tool after it has been dropped or subjected to other mechanical stresses.
c) Check that the PX 10T transmitter is well secured when attached to a working surface.
d) Although the tool is designed for the tough conditions of jobsite use, as with other measuring instruments it should be treated with care.
e) Although the tool is designed to prevent entry of dampness, it should be wiped dry each time before being put away in its transport container.

5.6 Electrical
a) Keep the batteries out of reach of children.
b) Do not allow the batteries to overheat and do not expose them to fire. The batteries may explode or release toxic substances.
c) Do not charge the batteries.
d) Do not solder the batteries into the tool.

f) Do not attempt to open the batteries and do not subject them to excessive mechanical stress.

Before use

6.1 Inserting the batteries 1
CAUTION
Do not use damaged batteries.

1. Remove the batteries from the packaging and insert them in the tool.
2. Check that the battery terminals are positioned correctly as shown on the underside of each tool.

Operation

7.1 Switching the tool off and on
Press the on/off button.
7.2 Changing the measurement units
If you wish to change the measurement unit displayed (switch between “cm” and “inch”), proceed as follows: With the tool switched on, press and hold the transmitter on/off button for approx. 5 sec. until the symbol changes. The selected measuring unit remains active each time the tool is switched on.
7.3 Setting up the transmitter 13
Use the center hole or the outer marks to align the transmitter with the reference point and then fix it in position. Two different adhesive aids are supplied with the tool for this purpose.
NOTE
– It is recommended that the adhesive putty is used wherever possible. Nevertheless, neither the adhesive putty nor the adhesive strips are able to guarantee an absolutely secure hold.
– It is recommended that the tool is additionally secured by way of the hand strap and a nail or screw or some similar means of mechanical attachment.
– To further increase its security, the tool can be held by a second person.
Check to ensure that the transmitter is always set up parallel to the surface.

7.3.1 PUA 91 adhesive putty for general use
NOTE
The adhesive putty adheres to various surfaces. The surface should be dry and free from dust and grease. This will ensure that best results are achieved.
NOTE
The adhesive putty can be reused. It is recommended that the putty balls are reformed when reused.
NOTE
The adhesive putty adheres to various surfaces. longer obtained due to the dirt and dust it has collected.
NOTE
The adhesive putty leaves marks on the surface to which it is applied and may pull fragments away from it when removed. If this presents a problem, an alternative means  of attachment should be employed.
The adhesive putty is used to attach the transmitter to wall or ceiling.

1. Form three balls of approximately equal size, i.e. cm (0.4 in) in diameter.
   NOTE Depending on the type of surface, it may be necessary to adjust the quantity of putty used.

2. Place these in the indentations on the underside the transmitter.

3. Attach the transmitter securely to the wall or ceiling by pressing it against the surface.

7.3.2 PUA 92 adhesive strips for interior use
NOTE
The adhesiveness ret ova rouser faces. The surface must be dry and free from dust and grease. This will ensure that best results are achieved.
NOTE
Use the adhesive strips within the ambient temperature rangeof10to40°C(+50°Fto+104°F).
The adhesive strips are used to attach the transmitter to a wall or ceiling.

1. Apply two strips (top and bottom) to the underside of the transmitter.
   NOTE The red side should be applied to the transmitter and the black side to the wall or ceiling.
   NOTE The end should be allowed to project about a finger width beyond the side of the tool.
   NOTE Use of two strips is recommended. It may be necessary to use several strips on certain types of surface.

2. Press the transmitter firmly against the wall or ceiling.

3. When removing the adhesive strips, pull them away slowly, parallel to the surface.
   NOTE The adhesive strips may pull fragments away from the surface when removed.

7.4 Working with the receiver

CAUTION
Check that no other PX 10T transmitter is in operation in the immediate vicinity of the transmitter you are using.
NOTE
The receiver must always be positioned parallel to the transmitter.
The signal status symbol in the display lights when the receiver is within range of the transmitter (typically 1.35 m / 4.43 ft). The direction arrows help guide the user  to the mid point of the magnetic field generated by the transmitter. The mid point has been found when all arrows light up. The position of the receiver may be marked  either through the hole in the center of the tool or using the external marking notches. When at or near to the mid point, the display is illuminated and the distance between  the devices is shown as a minimum and maximum (not an absolute value).

7.4.1 Improving measurement accuracy in case of influence by metal
NOTE
Do not measure in corners or immediately adjacent to concrete walls containing steel reinforcement. In order to avoid influence by metal objects, it is recommended that the actual measurements are made at points offset from the reference point by a defined distance (for example, 200mm/8in).
Check that the PX 10T is secured in position and then use the receiver to make measurements from four sides (from above).Mark the points found and then determine the geometrical center. Where a large mass of metal is present or where measurements are to be made close to an adjacent wall, several measurements should be made at a known distance and the geometrical center subsequently determined, e.g. four measurements in a square with sides 100 mm (4 in) in length.
NOTE
Working on a rough surface can be made easier by laying a sheet of nonmetallic material between the receiver and the surface.
7.5 Working with the slope adapter
The slope adapter is used to determine the drill bit exit point from a given entry point and angle, or to determine the angle between two given points.
The transmitter is used as described in the section “Setting up the transmitter”.
CAUTION
The surfaces of the wall must lie parallel to each other.

NOTE
The display shows the direct distance between the receiver and the transmitter, not the thickness of the wall or floor. Depending on the angle and wall thickness, angle measurements may not be possible lien some situations where the maximum range of the tool is exceeded.
Check that the receiver is securely attached to the slope adapter.
7.5.1 Finding a point from a given reference point at a given angle 4

1. Set up the transmitter parallel to the surface at the reference point.
2. Set the slope adapter to the desired angle.
3. To find the center point, rotate the slope adapter according to the direction of slope to the point to be found.
4. Take care to ensure that the adaptor base plate remains parallel to the underside of the transmitter on the other side of the wall while using the direction arrows to search for the center point, as described in the section “Working with the receiver”.
5. Use the marking notches or the marking hole in the slope adapter base plate to mark the position of the point found.

7.5.2 Finding the angle between two points 5

1. Set up the transmitter parallel to the surface at the reference point.
2. Set up the base plate of the slope adapter on the second reference point on the other side of the wall. NOTE The slope adapter should be adjusted so that the tilting plate coincides with the direction of inclination between the points.
3. Take care to ensure that the base plate of the slope adapter remains parallel to that of the transmitter at all times.
4. Move the slope adapter, keeping it perpendicular to the angle to be determined, until both direction indicator arrows for this axis light up. The perpendicular offset to this angle is then displayed.
5. Adjust the angle of the tilting plate carrying the receiver until both direction arrows for the angle axis light up.
6. Read the angle from the scale at the side.
   NOTE The angle reading corresponds to the effective drilling angle and not the visually perceived angle.

7.6 Possible applications 678
The PX 10 transponder can be used for general alignment tasks. The user is responsible for deciding whether the tool achieves the accuracy required for each application.

7.6.1 Preparing for drilling
Locating the drill bit exit point from a given entry point (hole-starting point).
Determining the required drill bit length.
Measuring the angle between two points with the aid of the slope adapter.

7.6.2 Reducing damage
Determining the starting point on the side from which drilling is to be carried out, depending on the situation:  The finished surfaces of walls (cladding, tiles, etc.) are often damaged when drilled through from the inside. The PX 10 transponder can be used, for example, to transfer the hole- starting point from the inside of the building to the outside. This ensures that no surface-mounted objects (such as risers, standpipes, etc.) are drilled into from the other side of the wall.
7.6.3 Transferring marks
Transferring reference points or marks for alignment work through walls, ceilings or floors.

7.6.4 Measuring wall thickness
Determining the thickness of walls, ceilings or floors.
7.7 Measurements to check accuracy 9
NOTE
Check the accuracy of the tool before making important  measurements or if the instrument has been dropped.
NOTE
Do not measure in corners or immediately adjacent to concrete walls containing steel reinforcement. In order to avoid influence by metal objects, it is recommended that  the actual measurements are made at points offset from the reference point by a defined distance (for example, 200mm/8in).

1. Choose a wall with a thickness of approx. 50 cm (1.64 ft) that is known to contain no reinforcement and with surfaces that are known to be parallel.

2. Check that the PX 10T is secured in position and then use the receiver to make measurements from four sides (from above, below, right, left). Mark the points found and then determine the geometrical center.
   NOTE Calibration at a Hilti service center is necessary if a deviation of more than 6 mm (0.24 in) is found.

3. If you doubt whether the surfaces of the wall are parallel, swap the positions of the transmitter and receiver on each side of the wall and repeat the steps described previously. Set up the transmitter on the previously determined geometrical center. If the second geometrical center does not coincide with the original reference point, then the surfaces of the wall are not parallel.
