New Job Site? Do These 3 Things For a Faster & Safer Bore

With the release of the TeraTrak R1’s latest update that produces a highly detailed, full bore plan, the way to approach a job site has changed. Infrastructure markings, elevation changes, entry and exit placements – these details that are often left to chance can now easily be included in a full bore plan that is efficient and achievable – helping drillers work faster and safer.

So, with this new technology now available for those rolling TeraTrak R1s, we’ve put together a new best practice checklist to go through for any new job site.

ROLL THE JOB SITE WITH THE TERATRAK R1

Yes, this new feature jumps right into the #1 spot! Whether prepping for a hilly or a flat bore, the R1’s ability to produce an easy-to-follow, rod-by-rod bore plan is a must for any driller looking for a little extra peace of mind while “sending it” near utilities or tough topography. Throw a seasoned locator out front on the box and you have a tandem that will be in sync throughout the whole bore.

SCAN FOR FREQUENCIES

Falcon technology soars above the competition for a reason: you have access to over 1,000 frequencies at the push of a button – a feature not available anymore on other locators. Those frequencies are also grouped into bands, giving you even more concentrated power for your pre-bore efforts, allowing you the best chance possible to finish the job with no slow-downs.

CALIBRATE

After scanning, calibrating your transmitter is key in making sure your depths are accurate. This simple step ensures that you’ll be able to accurately reach your depths and drill safely.
