The
Legacy 3500 is
a professional metal
detector. While the most
difficult aspects of metal detecting
have
been
sophisticated electronic device which
requires an understanding of some basic
features and metal detecting concepts.
If you do not have prior experience with a
metal detector, we strongly recommend that you:
1) Adjust the Sensitivity to a low setting in the
event of false signals. Always begin use at a
reduced sensitivity level; use at full sensitivity
after you have become familiar with the detector.
2) Do not use indoors. This detector is for outdoor use only. Many
household appliances emit electromagnetic energy, which can
interfere with the detector. If conducting an indoor demonstration,
turn the sensitivity down and keep the searchcoil away from
appliances such as computers, televisions and microwave ovens.
If your detector beeps erratically, turn off appliances and lights,
especially those with dimmer switches.
Also keep the searchcoil away from objects containing metal, such
as floors and walls.
3) Read this manual. Most importantly, review the Quick-Start Demo
(p.7-8) and Basic Operation (p. 9-12).
4) Use 9-volt ALKALINE batteries only. Do not use Heavy Duty Batteries.
