6. Meantime slowly rotate the ELIMINATOR control clockwise away from ALL
METAL until the unit does not sound or sounds short tone. You can identify
what kind of metal is REJECTED according to the setting position
of ELIMINATOR.
A reference for you to know what kind of metal is rejected depending on the
ELIMINATOR setting.
Setting of ELIMINATOR Metal Rejected
Near 11:00
Iron
Near 12:00
Iron, Nickel coin(5¢), pull tab
Near 13:00
Iron, Nickel coin(5¢), pull tab , Zinc coin(1¢ 87 version)
Near 15:00
Iron, Nickel coin(5¢), pull tab , Zinc coin(1¢ 87 version)
Copper coin (1¢ 76 version)
For example, if you set up ELIMINATOR knob to the position near 12:00, it means
that metal targets like Nickel coin, pull tab, or Iron should be eliminated. Therefore,
when you detect a buried target and the detector beeps, it may be the metal target of
Zinc coin, Copper Coin, or Silver.
When the ELIMINATOR control is set to the clockwise end most of metal is
rejected, except silver (25¢,50¢ and $1).
Search Coil Sweeping Hints:
• Never sweep the search coil as if it were a pendulum. Raising the search coil while
sweeping or at the end of a sweep will cause false readings.
• Sweep slowly. Hurry will cause you to miss targets.
• It is better you sweep the search coil from side to side in an arc line of 3 inches
motion and keep the search coil parallel with the ground.

FACTORS THAT AFFECT THE DETECTING
It’s difficult to have an accurate detecting result. It takes practice to get better
detection results. Sometimes the detecting may be restricted by some factors.
• If there are interference from other instruments or electrical cable, TV or radio in
your searching area, lower the sensitivity, or to change the current searching area.
• When searching in highly mineralized area, the unit will sound even if there’s no
metal. In this case, you can lower the sensitivity and increase the height between
the search coil and the ground until the false signal disappears. If necessary, reset
the ELIMINATOR.
• When searching in trash area, it’s better to set the ELIMINATOR to 11:00 position,
so that the unit can notch most of invaluable metals such as nails and small
trashy iron.
• Move away any metal digging tool when searching.
• Sensitivity level is generally in contradiction with that of the discrimination. The
higher the sensitivity level is; the worse discrimination will be. But you can lower the
sensitivity to have better discrimination.
