Do you have a link for the cable detection kit you used there? Looks exactly what I need

I'm facing the same problem. A link to that device would have been helpful right now.

I confirm that's a good device. Just found damaged but not broken cable spot with this. The key is to have a device with intensity control on both signal and receiver.

Is it posoble to use this tool with the cabel power ON 220volts?

Possibly the most valuable video ive watched on KZbin - thank you!

Does one need to unplug the charging station from the power before doing this test? Shoukd you also disconnect the Guide wire as well?

Quick question So, i have a 430x mower with a large area to cover, between 2 properties. I think i may have nicked guide wire 2 with the shovel, which goes out to my part of the lawn. To firstly confirm this, would i plug out Boundary left and but guide wire 2 into its slot and confirm that is indeed the issue, which should lead to turning the light blue in the charge station If the above is correct, do i then plug out all the boundary cables and guide 1, to only leave guide 2 operating and track the wire from there, or what is the best approach. Thanks

Thanks Barry. You have saved me calling someone out that would have cost much more!

Would this with a flymo easilife 800?

Hello

I've had to replace mine so many times I'm fed up now I bypassed the wire and not it cuts up everything. 😂

You just saved me a lot of time. Used a cheapo detector from Amazon. Found the issue after watching this. I stuck the black wire in the ground then it worked well 😊

Really helpful so have placed order for one

👏 brilliant video, thank you

I tryed to do it with out putting the tomatoes in the bin but it did not work. Next time I tried I put the tomatoes in the bin and I won so put the tomatoes in the bin

Helpful! It works very well

A completely different question I have for you, do you have two guide wires connected? Do you have them connected separately to G1 and G2? There is only a G1 connector in my automower 305, does that mean I can only connect one guide wire ?? thank you in advance for your help.

So if you replaced there bearing, you'd seat it on the spindle and shove the hub over it? I've had a bearing pressed into my hub but now can't get the hub to seat on the spindle as the bearing interferes

Deciding between this and MS6818 / NF-826 for locating boundary cable breaks. Any reccomendations?

Legend! Love the video. I have just had my first line break and trying to find anything in AUS to detect it is difficult. I have been looking at the KLEIN TOOLS Tone and Probe Pro Kit, but I think that I will go with the NF-820. Thanks again mate.

Yep I’ve given up with the radio too, and have just been 1/2 way splitting the cable using a cable reel, 13a plug with spade connector and multimeter. I hate it worst job ever. I will order one of these gizmos and try that, why are husqvarna supplying cable that rots in the ground?!

Lifesaver, this also works for landroid!

Thank you!

Thanks for sharing! Tried it out but could not get it to work without connecting the black wire to a spade in the ground. Detection range without ground connection was 30 cm from the transmitter regardless of settings.

you sir are a life saver. Thank you

Or you can connect a 220V (110V) AC live wire on the boundary cable (after disconnecting it from the base, obviously) and probing with a voltage pen tester. every few meters I did that and it worked quite well ;) I would assume a voltage pen tester is much cheaper than the device you are presenting.

Thanks Barry

Thanks for a great demo Barry. I bought a NF-820 a couple of years ago for tracking broken boundary wires. But the problem was that when I used it, it always gave signals everywhere. It was so sensitive and hard to adjust. So I bought the Mastech MS-6818 instead that worked much better. But after watching your video I noticed that you didn't ground the black ground clip. So I went out for a try with my NF-820 again. What a difference :-) Now it seems to work as it should. It still needs some minor adjustments but its great and much stronger than the MS-6812. When I look for faults I also use a smart wire-tester that check all wires individualy and comes out with a solution of which cable that needs to be tracked.

Thanks for the video. There seem to be 2 makes showing up on amazon.co.uk when I search for NF-820, although the only one avaialble to order isn't Noyafa, so maybe a copycat brand. The one you are using doesn't say Noyafa on it. Would you mind confirming the make please. Thanks again - so useful to be able to trace the wire without needing to dig it up or cut it.

Your cable is on the ground not underground, that make a big difference finding a break.

Thanks for posting this - have just ordered one. Also ideal for finding retic solenoid locations and broken retic wires.

Do you have to clip the negative lead of the emitter on to anything?

How far from your base station was the break?

Thanks for making this video! Looks like this detection system is far better than with the Mastech system (which is barely audible from above ground). I couldn't get the AM radio approach to work. I'll try ordering on the NF-820 units.

Barry, will this tool detect wire that has been buried? I've trenched my cable appx 4-6 inches. Also, what is the make/model of this tool? Thanks! (Actually looks like the Noyafa NF-820 and says it can find wire underground! Thanks!)

Thank you.
