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 wish to use rechargeable batteries, we recommend using a
Nickel Metal Hydride rechargeable battery.

The battery compartment is located on the back side of the housing.
Slide the battery door to the side and remove it to expose the battery
compartment.

BATTERY LIFE

Expect 20 to 25 hours of life from a 9-volt alkaline battery.
Rechargeable batteries provide about 8 hours of usage per charge.

SPEAKER VOLUME AND BATTERY CHARGE

You may notice the speaker volume drop while one battery segment is
illuminated. 
With one segment flashing, low speaker volume will be very apparent.

BATTERY INDICATOR

The remaining battery life is proportional to the percentage of the battery icon
illuminated.

After the battery indicator begins flashing, expect the detector to shut off within
10 minutes.

3. PINPOINT

Enter PINPOINT from either Disc or All
Metal Mode.  Press and hold 

to

activate pinpoint.  Pinpoint detection is
only active for as long as you keep 
depressed. 

Pinpoint is used to find the exact
location of a target which was
previously located and identified
using the Discrimination Mode.  As
this mode does not require motion
over the target, the user can move
the coil more slowly and then
narrow the detection field when
near the target.

How to Pinpoint
Position the searchcoil an inch or two
(2.5-5cm) above the ground, and to the
side of the target.  Then press and hold

. Now move the searchcoil slowly

across the target, and the sound will
communicate the target’s location. As
you sweep from side to side, and hear
no sound at the ends of the sweep, the
target is located in the middle of that
zone, where the sound is loudest. If the
sound is loud over a wide area, the
buried object is large. Use Pinpoint to
trace an outline of such large objects.

Narrow It Down
To further narrow the field of detection,
position the searchcoil near the center
of the response pattern (but not at the
exact center), release 

, and then

quickly press-and-hold it again. Now
you will only hear a response when
the searchcoil is right over the top of
the target.  Repeat this procedure to
narrow the zone even further.  Each
time you repeat the procedure, the
field of detection will narrow further.

Consider Purchasing a Pinpointer
When you kneel down to unearth an
object, you may find it frustrating as the
object can appear exactly like the
surrounding soil.  You may hold the
object in your hand, and find it
necessary to pass a handful of dirt over
the searchcoil to see if it contains
metal.  An easier way is to use a
handheld pinpointer. It is a probe-like
device which is poked into the ground,
making close up pinpointing a snap,
reducing digging time, and minimizing
the size of the holes you will dig.
