Warning: Avoid Magnetic Slamming. Extreme care must be taken when
handling the vehicle, particularly when placing it onto a wall or into its storage
box. Without taking heed of the sudden pull of the magnetic field onto a
surface, the Magg™ 310 can be slammed down hard causing damage to the
vehicle. Using a solid grip on the vehicle, we recommend touching down the
vehicle by one end first and then pivoting flat.
WARNING: Intense Optical Radiation - The Magg™ 310 camera lights are
extremely bright. Never look directly at the lights. Use a welding filter (shade #8 or
higher) if inspecting the LEDs.
•CAUTION: Class II Laser: Do not intentionally stare into the
beam. Typically, Class II relies on the blink reflex to limit
exposure to no more than ¼-second. Intentionally staring into
the beam can cause eye injury.
•When performing maintenance or functional checks of the
lasers and camera lights, take precautions to protect nearby
personnel from unintended exposure which could be
temporarily blinding.
•Observe safe lifting practices. For storage and shipping, the Magg™ 310 system is packed in
three parts: Controller, Vehicle and Tether. Each of the three components is either built or packed
into a Pelican case with carrying handle. The heaviest case containing the tether and mini-reel is
equipped with wheels and extending handle like a suitcase.
•Do not operate the system with damaged wires. A short circuit may damage the power system,
telemetry system, cameras, or attached equipment. Exposed wires may also create a shock
hazard.
•Disconnect the power source before servicing the product; otherwise, damage may result.
•Although designed for durability, the vehicle and its components or attached devices may suffer
structural damage if dropped or impacted. A lifeline or fall arrest system should be used at all time
when the vehicle is navigating on a vertical or inverted horizontal position. In addition, stepping on
the tether may pull the vehicle off the wall causing it to fall and sustain physical damage.
•All personnel operating or maintaining this equipment must be trained and competent.
•Our equipment is used in many varied environments from hot/dry to confined spaces to deep
underwater. Such diverse environment risks must be addressed by the operators who are trained
to work in such surroundings. As such, the operator is responsible to determine safe site setup
and appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) for operation and maintenance of the
equipment.
WARNING: Spark Hazard - Under no circumstances should this equipment be
used in a potentially explosive atmosphere.

System Setup
Personnel Requirements
Basic deployment of the Magg™ 310 system may be performed by one person. Operations at more
complex worksites may require two people, especially when the console location is removed from the
point of deployment.
•Console Operator: This person is responsible for driving the vehicle, watching the location of the
inspection and making comments about it and the surrounding conditions. It is also the operator’s
responsibility to assess whether the location of the inspection is in the appropriate condition for
safe passage of the vehicle or if there is a risk of getting stuck. The operator may also assist in
general site setup (cones, warning signs, etc.), vehicle maintenance and configuration.
•Deployment / Tether Handler / Field Maintenance: This person has several tasks including:
oConfiguring the vehicle for the current inspection.
oPlacing and retrieving the vehicle to and from the inspection area.
oWatching the tether as the vehicle enters and exits the inspection.
oOperating the reel and winding the tether during recovery.
Establish a good channel of communication between the operator and deployment personnel. Good
communication can avoid accidents, damage to the equipment, and promotes efficiency and productivity.
In particular, the person deploying the vehicle and watching the tether must be able to quickly tell the
operator to stop the vehicle if something goes wrong. The operator should never turn on power or initiate
movement without first communicating with the vehicle handler.
Working and Storage Environment
The control system (interface box, power supply, and control computer) is to be used in a dry, covered
environment only. These components are not waterproof. Keep all cords and cables away from water.
The tether and vehicle are depth rated to 60 m (200 ft) of water. The tether connector is a wet-mate type
which may be wet when plugged in but cannot be plugged in underwater. Keep the tether connector
capped with a dummy plug when not connected to the vehicle to help keep out dirt. The tracks are
tolerant to sandy and muddy conditions, although this decreases seal life. The vehicle may also be
operated in dry or dusty environments.
The portable reel and winch are splash resistant only. Refer to the reel manual.
To maximize component life and minimize deployment time it is recommended that the vehicle and tether
be cleaned after use and the entire system stored in a dry, dust free, location.
System storage temperatures are between -20 ˚C –60 ˚C (-4 ˚F – 140 ˚F)

User Manual
System Power
The Magg™ 310 is operated through an ICON™ Portable Controller, or a Rackmount Interface Box.
These controllers provide power to the tether and vehicle.
Refer to the Controller User Manual for further details and power requirements.
If powering the system from a generator or inverter, refer to that unit’s operating manual for
recommendations on continuous and peak load ratings. These power sources may apply a reduced
output rating based on electrical load and environmental temperature. Remember to include the power
needs of all other connected devices (external monitors, recording devices, lighting, etc.) when selecting
a generator or inverter.
Galvanic Corrosion Control
We strongly recommend cathodic protection whenever the vehicle is being deployed in a saltwater
environment, either submerged or in salt spray. We recommend aluminum marine anodes exclusively for
use with the inspection system. Aluminum anodes are common in the marine industry and are replacing
zinc anodes in many areas. For inspection systems that are often pulled in and out of salt water,
aluminum anodes are especially important, as zinc anodes tend to scale over when exposed to air and
may not reactivate when submerged again. An aluminum anode will always reactivate.
For permanent installations, it is required that the structure to which the system is mounted also be
protected by aluminum anodes. If the structure is of a dissimilar metal, the system mount must be
isolated from the structure. Do not mix anode types (zinc and aluminum) on the assembly. There must be
only one anode type throughout the structure. Avoid use of Magnesium anodes altogether.
ICON™ Portable Controller Connection
The ICON™ Portable Controller supplies power to the tether and vehicle. It provides a communication
interface to the vehicle. It also provides video reception and distribution.
Refer to the Controller Setup section of the ICON™ Portable Controller User Manual for more information.
Vehicle and Tether Connection
The tether and vehicle are depth rated to 60 m (200 ft) of water. The tether connector and track
connectors are dry-mate types which must be dry when making a connection. Keep the tether connector
capped with a dummy plug when not connected to the vehicle to help keep out dirt.
It is important that the tether be properly connected to the vehicle.
1. Connect the vehicle end of the tether to the back of the harness block. Visually line up the key in
the connector before mating. Fully screw down and hand tighten the locking collar.
2. Verify the track and camera whips from the harness block to their respective components are
securely connected, and the whips are free from damage.

Portable Reel Setup
If your system includes a portable reel, follow these steps to operate:
1. Remove the shipping cap from the front of the case and insert the crank handle.
2. Connect the deck cable from the reel to the controller.
3. Disengage the packing brake (pull back and turn on the locking pin).
4. Make sure the friction brake is engaged - disengaging the friction brake can result in slack tether
resulting in potentially jamming the reel.
5. Unwind some tether and connect the tether to the vehicle.
6. Run the tether through the level wind as follows:
a. There is an access slot which must be opened by lifting up on the two exposed screw
heads to raise the tether support shafts.
b. Pull up on both sides of the axle on the top wheel and slide the tether beneath it - failing to
lift up on the wheel can scuff and damage the tether.
c. Make sure that the two wheels that sandwich the tether top and bottom in the level wind
are tracking properly as the tether is paid out - this tells the controller how much tether the
reel has unwound and how far your vehicle has travelled.

Tether Handling
The tether is one of the most important parts of the system. It feeds power and control signals to the
system and returns data to the controller. If the tether is damaged from improper use, poor handling or an
accident, the system may become inoperable. This could lead to significant downtime, loss of production,
and avoidable costly repairs. It is encouraged to stress the importance of the tether and its use to anyone
operating or maintaining the system. For maximum tether life and reliability, we recommend the following
tether handling tips.
•Do not step on the tether.
•Do not drive over the tether.
•Do not bend the tether beyond its minimum bend radius.
•Do not kink the tether.
•Do not snap load the tether.
•Avoid loading the tether whenever possible.
•Always use the cable grip strain relief if applicable to your system.
•Regularly inspect the tether for damage.
•Regularly clean the tether.
Note:
Protecting the conductors inside the tether is critical to the life and operation of the tether.
Proper tether handling and care will result in extended tether life and system reliability.
Connector Handling
Connectors are an essential part of system reliability. They should be properly maintained and cared for
to ensure long life and reliability. It is recommended to follow these steps to help prevent damage and
increase the life of connectors.
•Always put the cap back on the tether bulkhead when the tether is disconnected.
•Always inspect the end of the connector prior to engaging.
•Never plug in a dirty or damaged connector.
•Visually align keyways or locating pins prior to engaging the connector.
•Always fully engage or tighten the connector.
•Secure locking collars finger tight.
•Install dummy plugs on unused connectors.
•Disconnect by pulling straight, not on an angle.
•Do not pull on the cable to disengage the connector.
IMPORTANT: Never “Hot Plug” any connector, this will result in internal damage to the
electronics. Power down the system prior to connecting the inspection system tether.
Note:
Never use WD-40 or similar solvent-based fluids on connectors or crawlers. These will cause
the rubber parts of the connector or crawler to soften and swell rendering them inoperable.

Magnet Spacing
The Magg™ 310 vehicle comes equipped with magnet cups to enable the vehicle to maneuver on a
vertical or inverted magnetically attractive surface. The magnet cups utilize rare earth permanent magnets
and cannot be disabled (or turned off).
The inspection surface must be carbon steel or alloy steel that has good magnetic properties. Most
structural steels are strongly magnetic. 300 series stainless steels and some other alloys are not. The
client may be able to identify their metal and look up its properties or test it with a magnet.
It is important to note that the magnet cups lose magnetic adhesion as they move away from the
attractive surface. The operator needs to pay attention to distance between the magnet cups and the
surface. If the magnets are too close to the surface, the Microtracs™ may not be able to overcome the
added friction for skid steering. If the magnets are too far away the vehicle may lose magnetic adhesion.
The distance from the magnet cups to the inspection surface can be adjusted by the operator by adding
or removing the magnet spacers. The thickness of the steel surface also affects the amount of magnetic
adhesion provided by the magnets.
Some considerations when determining magnet spacing:
•Thickness of stainless, plastic, or concrete cladding over the carbon steel surface.
•Uneven surfaces such as large welds.
•Thickness of magnetically attractive surface (0.20in minimum is ideal).
•Curvature of inspection surface.
