2 scanning modes:
• StudScan locates edges of stud (wood and metal)
up to 19 mm deep
• DeepScan locates edges of stud up to 38 mm deep
WireWarning Detection automatically detects and
alerts for live, unshielded AC (alternating current)
wires up to 50 mm deep in both modes. When AC voltage
is detected, the WireWarning Detection Indicator shows
on display.
INSTALL 9-VOLT BATTERY
Always use a new 9V alkaline battery
with an extended expiration date at
least 3 years beyond the current date.
Match battery direction to image
inside of battery cavity.
WARNING Do not rely exclusively on the tool
to locate items behind a surface.
Use other information to help locate items before
penetrating the surface, including construction
plans, visible points of entry of pipes and wiring
into walls such as in a basement, and standard
stud-spacing practices.
POWER UP
Move Mode Selector Switch to desired mode: StudScan
or DeepScan.
To activate tool, press and hold Power Button.
If button is not pressed and held, unit shuts off.
WIREWARNING DETECTION
The Zircon® WireWarning
Detection feature works
continuously in both modes.
When live, unshielded AC voltage
is detected, the WireWarning
Detection Indicator shows.
If scanning begins over a live
AC wire, the Indicator will
flash continuously. (Figure F)
Use extreme caution under these circumstances,
or whenever live AC wiring is present.
WARNING THE TOOL MAY NOT DETECT LIVE
CURRENT IF WIRES ARE MORE
THAN 50 mm BELOW THE SCANNED SURFACE,
IN CONCRETE, ENCASED IN CONDUIT, BEHIND A
PLYWOOD SHEAR WALL OR METALLIC WALL
COVERING, OR IF MOISTURE IS PRESENT IN THE
ENVIRONMENT OR SCANNED SURFACE.
WORKING WITH DIFFERENT MATERIALS
Wallpaper This tool functions normally on walls
covered with wallpaper or fabric, unless the materials
are metallic foil, contain metallic fibres, or are still wet
after application. Wallpaper may need to dry for several
weeks after application.
Freshly painted walls Paint may take a week or longer
to dry after application.
Lath and plaster Due to irregularities in plaster
thickness, this tool is not recommended for use on lath
and plaster.
Highly textured walls or acoustic ceilings
When scanning a ceiling or wall with an uneven surface,
place thin cardboard on the surface to be scanned and
scan over the cardboard in DeepScan
Mode.
Wood flooring, subflooring, or gypsum drywall
over plywood sheathing Use DeepScan Mode and
move the tool slowly.
This tool cannot scan for studs and joists through carpet
and padding.
NOTE: Sensing depth and accuracy can vary
depending on scanning environment conditions
such as mineral content, moisture, texture and
consistency of the wall materials.
FIND A STUD
The tool senses density changes to locate the edges of
wood and metal studs up to 19 mm behind the scanned
surface in StudScan Mode.
The accuracy of the position of a
stud found is typically within 3 mm.
For best results, hold the tool as
shown ( ) and move slowly Figure A
when scanning. Do not touch
the surface during calibration
or scan.
1. Hold tool flat against wall,
then press and hold Power Button.
In 1 – 2 seconds, the unit
will calibrate, and the Green
READY Light will illuminate.
DO NOT MOVE TOOL
DURING CALIBRATION.
2. While holding down the
Power Button, slide the tool
slowly along the wall. (Figure B)
When the tool reaches
the edge of the stud, the top
Red EDGE Light will illuminate,
the SpotLite Pointer will shine,
and a steady tone will sound.
Mark the spot. (Figure C)
3. Without releasing Power
Button, continue the scan direction
until the Red EDGE Light
and the SpotLite Pointer turn off,
then reverse direction. (Figure D)
4. Slide the tool until the other
edge of the stud is detected
and mark this as well. (Figure E)
The centre of the stud is the
midpoint between the two marks.
DEEPSCAN MODE
DeepScan Mode will detect studs up to 38 mm deep,
or twice the depth of StudScan.
To scan for deeper studs, or for use with thicker walls:
1. Set mode to DeepScan.
2. Repeat steps 1 5 under FIND A STUD.
OVER-THE-STUD WARNING
If scanning begins directly over a stud, the tool will emit a
continual beep.
If this happens, restart the scan in a different location.
WARNING DO NOT ASSUME THERE ARE NO LIVE
ELECTRICAL WIRES IN THE WALL.
DO NOT TAKE ACTIONS THAT COULD BE
DANGEROUS IF THE WALL CONTAINS A LIVE
ELECTRICAL WIRE. ALWAYS TURN OFF THE
ELECTRICAL, GAS, AND WATER SUPPLIES BEFORE
PENETRATING A SURFACE. FAILURE TO FOLLOW
THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN ELECTRIC
SHOCK, FIRE, AND/OR SERIOUS INJURY OR
PROPERTY DAMAGE.
Electrical wiring and pipes Depending on the proximity
of electrical wiring or pipes to the wall surface, the tool
may detect them in the same manner as studs.
Caution should always be used when nailing, cutting,
or drilling in walls, floors, and ceilings that may contain
these items.
Studs and joists are normally spaced 40 or 60 cm apart
on centre and are 38 mm wide. Anything closer together,
or of a different width, may not be a stud or joist.
This tool can scan effectively through most
sheet materials, including:
Bare wood flooring (in DeepScan Mode)
Linoleum on wood base
Gypsum drywall over plywood sheathing
Walls with wallpaper (if dry)
Textured ceilings with uniform thickness (place a thin
piece of cardboard on ceiling and scan over it to avoid
damage to texturing)
It is designed for use with:not
Ceramic tile, slate, granite, marble and other
rock surfaces
Carpeting and padding
Wallpaper with metallic fibres
Freshly painted walls that are still damp (may take one
week or longer to dry after application)
Lath and plaster walls
Foil covered insulation
Glass or any other dense material
Bathroom inserts such as bathtubs and showers
Surfaces thicker than 38 mm
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
ZIRCON® STUD FINDERS WORK BY SENSING DENSITY CHANGES BEHIND THE WALL. OTHER OBJECTS CAN BE DETECTED
ESPECIALLY IF THEY ARE VERY CLOSE TO THE WALL. DO NOT ASSUME EVERYTHING DETECTED IS A STUD.
- Always use a new 9V alkaline battery with an extended expiration date at least 3 years beyond the current date.
Match battery direction to image inside of battery cavity.
- Do not rely exclusively on the tool to locate items behind a surface. Use other information to help locate items before
penetrating the surface, including construction plans, visible points of entry of pipes and wiring into walls such as in a
basement, and standard stud-spacing practices.
- Always start your scan in StudScan Mode which scans through surfaces up to 19 mm deep. Scanning in DeepScan
Mode may detect an object further behind the wall that may or may not be a stud.
- Always scan for studs at several different heights on the wall and mark the location of every target indicated by
the stud finder. This is called “mapping the wall.Pipes and other objects will likely not give consistent readings from
floor to ceiling, like a stud will.
- Readings should always be consistent and repeatable.
- Zircon® stud finders are recommended for interior use only.
- Studs normally run from floor to ceiling, except above and below windows, and above doors.
- Other objects commonly contained in walls, floors, or ceilings are water pipes, gas lines, firestops, and electrical wiring.
- Sensing depth and accuracy can vary depending on scanning environment conditions such as mineral content, moisture,
texture and consistency of the wall materials.
- Always turn off power when working near electrical wires.
- Depending on the proximity of electrical wiring or pipes to the wall surface, the tool may detect them in the same
manner as studs. Caution should always be used when nailing, cutting, or drilling in walls, floors, and ceilings that may
contain these items.
- Studs and joists are normally spaced 40 or 60 cm apart on centre, are normally 38 mm wide, and may be separated
by firestops. Anything closer together, or of a different width, may not be a stud or joist.

TROUBLESHOOTING & CONSTRUCTION TIPS
SITUATION LIKELY CAUSE SOLUTION
All display elements
turn on at the same
time and the tool
beeps continuously.
Tool may not be flat against wall.
Hold the tool with thumb on one side and fingers on the other side.
Do not touch the surface being scanned or the scanning head of the tool.
Move the tool straight up and down, parallel to the studs. Do not rotate the tool.
Tool tilted or lifted during scan.
When scanning an uneven surface, place thin cardboard on the surface to be
scanned and scan over the cardboard in DeepScan Mode.
• Move Mode Selector Switch to enter DeepScan Mode.
Scanning surface is too dense or
too wet for tool to operate.
If tool is used on a surface that was recently taped, painted, or wallpapered,
allow time to dry and try scanning again.
Power Button pressed before
placing tool on surface.
Place tool on wall, then press Power Button, and wait for tool to calibrate
before scanning.
Unable to detect studs
in StudScan Mode-
the top EDGE arrow
doesn't illuminate.
Wall is thick or dense. Switch to DeepScan Mode to locate the stud.
Use the top EDGE arrow as the indication of stud edge.
Green READY light
illuminates but nothing
happens when scanning.
Tool may not be flat against wall. Hold tool so that the pads on the back make full contact with the surface.
Calibration may have occurred
over a stud in DeepScan Mode. Recalibrate in a different area, then continue the scan.
Can't detect studs in
DeepScan Mode.
Calibration may have occurred
over a stud.
Move the unit to a different area, then scan again. Also ensure that tool is held
against the wall as shown in illustrations.
Tool detects objects
other than studs or finds
more studs than should
be there.
Electrical wiring and metal
or plastic pipes may be near
or touching the back of the
wall surface.
Check for other studs equally spaced to either side at 30, 40, or 60 cm intervals,
or check for the same stud at spots directly above or below the first scan area.
Studs will run straight up and down, from floor to ceiling, while pipes may change
direction. Standard studs measure approximately 38 mm between edges.
Anything larger or smaller is likely not a stud (unless near door or window).
Area of voltage detection
is too large.
Voltage detection can spread on
drywall by as much as 30 cm on
each side of the wire.
Narrow the scan detection: Turn tool off. Turn it on again at the edge 1. 2.
of where the wire was first detected. Repeat scan.3.
Electrical wires suspected
but WireWarning
Detection does not alert.
Wires are shielded by a metal
conduit, braided wire or metallic
wall covering.
If there is an outlet switch, turn it to ON position while scanning, but turn OFF
when working near the wires. Use extra caution if the area has plywood,
thick wood backing behind drywall, or walls that are thicker than normal.
Wires deeper than 50 mm from
the surface might not be detected. See above.
Wires may not be live. Plug a lamp into the outlet and turn it on to test whether wires are live.
