It is versatile and easy to use. The detector’s features include: Display: Show the probable type of metal, the depth of the target, range of DISC&NOTCH, the level of SENS, and battery...
PREPARATION ASSEMBLING THE DETECTOR Assembling your detector is easy and requires no special tools. Just follow these steps. 1. Insert the latch on the top of the handle into the assembly hole on the bottom of the control box. Then slightly push the control box in the direction of IN marked on the handle to fix the latch in place.
upright with the detector in your hand, and the search coil is level with the ground with your arm relaxed at your side. Then counter-clockwise rotate to tighten the lock nut. 4.

detector sounds low , medium, high tones respectively. After about 2 seconds the detector enters into stand-by state. At this time the default mode is DISC. LCD displays DISC of 00 and SENS of 6 bars. 2. TESTING AND USING THE DETECTOR To learn how the detector reacts to different metals, you should test it before you use it the first time.

be notched. The cursor above the selected target will flash. Press NOTCH again, the target name below the cursor will disappear. It means this target will be notched during the detection and the detector will have no reaction to the notched target. If you want to pick up the target notched, simply press NOTCH again.
6. Slowly sweep a sample of the material you want the detector to find (such as a gold ring or a coin) 2-3 inches or more above the face of the search coil. When the detector detects any metal, it sounds a tone and the cursor above the target name will light.

reference only. 2. Types of target IRON: It indicates that the target is probably iron. 5¢: It indicates that the target is probably 5¢ or a nickel. Some small gold rings might register within this range. P-TAB: It indicates that the target is probably a pull tab of an aluminum can.
OUTDOOR TESTING AND USE 1. Rotate the VOLUME switch clockwise away from OFF to power on the detector. 2. Follow the steps of 2 described in section of Indoor Testing and Use to set the operating mode. 3. Find an area on the ground outside where there is no metal. 4.

with the ground If the detector detects the item, it sounds a tone, and the cursor above the target name will light. Also LCD displays the numeric range of target as well as the depth (signal strength). If the detector does not detect the item, make sure that the mode is set correctly for the type of metal you’re searching for.

position, or the detector will receive interference and false signal from broadcast antenna and other electronic lines. The detector will have unstable and irregular indications. Pinpointing The Target Accurately pinpointing a target makes digging it up easier. But it takes practice. We suggest you practice finding sample on your own property before you search other locations.
The depth of the target. The level of oxidization of the target. The size of the target. Electro-magnetic and electrical interference surrounding the target. In area of highly mineralized ground or wet sand, the detector will sound even if there is no metal. In this case, you can lower the sensitivity or increase the DISC numeric value.
