Search
Sweep the area in a grid pattern,
keeping the search head level
approximately 50mm (2 inches)
above the ground.
Detection of a metal cover is indicated
by an audible pitch increase and target
light brightness increase. Small metal
targets are ignored.
To aid pin pointing a target accurately,
‘desensitise’ the locator by moving the
search head into the response area and
momentarily press the I (ON) button.
Then relocate the strongest signal from
the target.
To switch off press the O button.
The locator will automatically power off
after approximately 20 minutes unless
the ON button is pressed.
