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. You can test the detector indoors of

outdoors.

Indoor Testing

1. Remove any watches, rings, or other metal

jewelry you are wearing, then place the

detector on a wooden or plastic table.

2. Adjust the search coil’s angle so the flat part

faces the ceiling.

Note: Never test the detector on a floor

inside a building. Most buildings have metal

of some kind in the floor, which might

interfere with the objects you are testing or

mask the signal completely.

3. Rotate VOLUME to the 11 o’clock position.

4. Set DISCRIMINATION to its midpoint.

5. Move a sample of the material you want the

detector to find (such as a gold ring or a

coin) about 2 inches above the search coil.

Notes:

z The search coil will not detect without

motion. You must move the object since

you are not sweeping with the detector at

this time.

z If you are suing a coin, the detects it more

easily if you hold it so a flat side is

parallel with the flat side of the search

coil (not the edge).

If the detector detects the material, it sounds a

tone and the pointer moves to the left (ferrous)

or to the right (non-ferrous) while the detector

determines the type of meal it is detecting.

If the detector does not detect the material,

check the battery power and verify that the

search coil is properly connected. Also, you

might need to fine-tune the detector (see

“Fine-Tuning the Detector” on Page 10).

Outdoor Testing and Use

1. Find an area on the ground outside where

there is no metal.

2. Place a sample of the material you want

the detector to find (such as a gold ring or

a coin) on the ground. (If you are using

valuable metal such as gold to test the

detector, mark the area where you placed

the item, to help you find it later. Do not

place it in tall grass or weeds.)

3. Rotate VOLUME about two-thirds

clockwise.

4. Press and release the red button on the

handle. Slowly rotate TUNE until the

pointer is at or near 0. You should barely

hear a tone.

5. While holding the search coil level and

about 1-2 inches above the ground, slowly

move the search coil over the area where

you placed the sample, sweeping the

search coil in a side-to-side motion.

Search Coil Sweeping Hints:

z Never sweep the search coil as if it were a

pendulum. Raising the search coil while sweeping

or at the end of a sweep causes false readings.

z Sweep slowly – hurrying makes you miss targets.

If the detector detects the material, it sounds a tone

and the pointer moves to the type of metal it found.

If the detector does not detect the material, make sure

you are moving the search coil correctly.

Notes:

z The detector responds with a strong signal

when it detects most valuable metal objects.

If a signal does not repeat after you sweep

the search coil over the target a few times,

the target is probably junk metal.

z False signals can be caused by trashy

ground, electrical interference, or large

irregular pieces of junk metal. False signals

are usually broken or non-repeatable.
