USING THE METAL DETECTOR

ALL-METAL MODE
1. Set the DISC/TONE dial (1) to the ALL METAL position.
2. Set the SENS dial to the middle position.
3. Hold the search coil 1 metre above the ground.
4. Hold down the TRACE button and rotate the GND BAL to the area marked
'P'. Then release the TRACE button.
5. Hold the search coil 2-5 cm above the ground.
If the pointer swings to the right rotate the GND BAL to the left slightly, If the
pointer swings to the left rotate the GND BAL to the right.
Each time you adjust the GND BAL press the TRACE button once.

DISCRIMINATION MODE

1. Set the Mode Selector (9) to the DISC position.
2. Rotate the DISC/TONE dial (1) clockwise away from the ALL METAL position.
At setting '0' the detector will detect nearly all metal. As you increase the
setting more objects will be rejected. On a high setting only the most
conductive metals will be found.

TONE MODE

1. Set the Mode Selector (9) to the TONE position.
2. Rotate the DISC/TONE dial (1) clockwise away from the ALL METAL position.
At setting '0' the detector will respond to all metals with a high pitched tone.
On a high setting only the most conductive objects (such as silver) will respond
with a high pitched tone.
SENSITIVITY
SENS adjusts the sensitivity of your metal detector to metal objects.
If you turn this knob fully clockwise, it will be more sensitive to small objects and
detect metal deeper down. However, if there are a high concentration of
minerals in the ground it may give you false signals.
THRESHOLD (DISCRIMINATION MODE ONLY)
The threshold is the optimum point of tuning on a detector where a faint tone
can be heard. By setting the threshold to this point the metal detector will be
at its most sensitive.
