To activate the Audio Battery Test, simply turn the detector off momentarily and then back on
again. If the battery is fresh, the detector should emit a continuous and loud "beep" sound that
lasts for about 4 or 5 seconds, and then slowly fades into silence. As the battery ages, this
sound is less intense and fades out more quickly. When you hear only a brief "buzz" or no
sound at all, replace the battery with a fresh one.
If you prefer, a rechargeable Nickel-Cadmium (Ni-Cad) battery can be substituted for the
standard 9 volt alkaline battery. Individual 9 volt size Ni-Cad cells, as well as the chargers for
them, are readily available at most electronic supply stores. They are installed into your
detector in the same manner as non-rechargeable batteries. The Battery Test sound on a Ni-
Cad will be weaker than an alkaline in the beginning, but will not weaken as much with use.
CONTROLLING AUDIO VOLUME
The speaker in the Outlaw does not have a volume control. The volume should be sufficient to
accurately hear the target response sound in most environments. If more or less volume is
required in your particular situation, we recommend using a set of good quality headphones
with a built-in volume control.
HANDLING YOUR DETECTOR
The detector should be held in a position that is comfortable for you as shown in the "Adjusting
the Pole & Searchcoil" section in the Field Use Section (Page 18). Swing the detector from
side to side in about a three foot arc, overlapping succeeding strokes well. This motion is
called a "sweep". The Outlaw was designed to get maximum depth without the frantic pace
required of earlier motion detectors, so go at a pace that is comfortable for you. In fact, trying to
hunt too fast may even cause a loss of depth in heavily mineralized locations.
Regardless of which MODE you are using, try to keep your searchcoil height constant and
close to the ground, Most people tend to raise the coil at the end of a sweep – much like a
