Page 6: Batteries (Use Alkaline Batteries Only)
BATTERIES The detector requires a single 9-volt ALKALINE battery (battery not included). Do not use ordinary “Zinc Carbon” batteries Do not use “Heavy Duty” batteries. Rechargeable batteries can also be used. If you use rechargeables, we recommend using a “Nickel Metal Hydride” rechargeable battery. The battery compartment is located on the back side of the Control Housing. -

Page 8: The Basics Of Metal Detecting
THE BASICS OF METAL DETECTING This metal detector is intended for locating buried metal objects. When searching for metals, underground or on the surface, you have the following challenges and objectives: 1. Ignoring signals caused by ground minerals. 2. Ignoring signals caused by metal objects that you do not want to find, like nails. - Page 9 THE BASICS OF METAL DETECTING 5. EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) The searchcoil produces a magnetic field and then detects changes in that magnetic field caused by the presence of metal objects. This magnetic field that the detector creates is also susceptible to the electromagnetic energy produced by other electronic devices.

TARGET IDENTIFICATION Target-ID When objects are detected, the detector will emit a sound and a 2-digit Target-ID will appear on the screen. Possible Target-IDs range from 1 to 99. This number represents the electrical conductivity of the target; higher numbers indicate more highly conductive targets. -

Page 18: Pinpoint
PINPOINT Press-and-hold to activate the Pinpoint feature. Searchcoil motion is not required; a motionless searchcoil over a metal target will induce sound. Audio is V.C.O. The 2-digit number displayed indicates target depth, in inches. The scale in calibrated to coin-size objects. After you have identified a target using a motion mode of detection, press-and- hold to identify the target's exact location. -
Page 19: Ground Cancelation
GROUND CANCELATION WHAT IS GROUND CANCELATION? Why do I need to cancel out the ground? All soils contain minerals. Signals from ground minerals are often tens or hundreds of times as strong as the signal from a buried metal object. The magnetism of iron minerals, found in nearly all soils, causes one type of interfering signal. -

If the Ground setting is incorrect, there will be a difference in the sound as the searchcoil is either moving toward or away from the ground. -
