110V Power Reel Operating Instructions

Water Level Meter - 110V Power Reel Instructions

Using the Tape Guide

The tape guide has been designed to:

• improve accuracy when reading water levels,
• easily obtain repeatable measurements,
• prevent tape being cut by well casing,
• allow the tape and probe to hang straight from the side of the well.

Tape Guide

When using the tape guide, the measuring point is offset from the top of casing. To adjust your measurements to the top of the casing, simply subtract the amount indicated on the front of the tape guide (i.e. 6 cm or 2/10 ft.).

Routine Care

1. After the depth to water has been recorded, the tape should be carefully rewound onto the reel, the probe wiped dry and placed into the probe holder.
2. The probe, tape and reel can be cleaned with phosphate free (nonabrasive) detergent and warm water.
3. Remove any dirt or water from around the central sensor pin. If the central sensor pin is corroded or coated, use emery cloth to polish it.
4. Check the P2 probe seal/strain relief and replace the black heat shrink if there is any cracking or other damage.
5. Use of the Tape Guide adds to the life of the tape.

Battery Replacement (battery type - alkaline, 9 volt.)

1. The battery is housed conveniently on the front of the box with the sensitivity switch.
2. To replace the battery, open the compartment with a screw driver.
3. Note the polarity and place another new battery in the drawer and slide it back into the faceplate.
