1.  Once all the proper tests and adjustments 

have been made, the Metal Detector 
is ready to be used outdoors.

2.  When first searching, set the Mode button to 

ALL METAL and SENS to the highest level. 

3.  Adjust the VOLUME to the desired level.

Figure J

4.  Sweep the Search Coil (19) slowly back 

and forth in an arc, keeping it about 1/2″ 
to 2″ from the ground.  See Figure I.

5.  If you hear a beeping noise or see the 

needle jump to the right on the View Meter, 
you have located a metal object. 

6.  Use the TARGET button to pin-point the 

object. Then use the DISC or TONE modes 
to determine what kind of metal it is and 
whether you wish to dig out the item. 

7.  To prevent accidents, turn off the tool and 

remove the batteries after use.  Clean, then 
store the tool indoors out of children’s reach.

tips for Searching in Different Environments

1.  There are many factors which influence the 

sensitivity and accuracy of detecting objects, 
including the angle, depth, size and oxidation of the 
target object. Various soil or seawater conditions, 
and also electromagnetic and electrical interference 
surrounding the target can also affect readings. 
Other metal detectors in the area will also cause 
interference, so when there is more than one unit 
in use, be sure they are at least 10 yards apart. 
Some ways to help increase success are: 

2.  If there is interference from similar metal 

detectors in your searching area, lower the 
SENS setting to stop the interference.

3.  If there is interference from electrical cables, 

TV, radio, or other electrical devices in your 
searching area, lower the SENS setting.

4.  When searching in highly mineralized areas, the 

unit may sound even if there is no metal. Lower the 
SENS setting, set the DISC to high and increase 
the distance of the Search Coil from the ground until 
the false signal disappears. To set the DISC setting, 
place a test metal object in highly mineralized earth 
or wet sand and adjust the setting before beginning.

5.  When searching in a trash area, set the DISC 

to the middle setting so that the unit can reject 
most invaluable metals such as nails, bottle 
caps, cans, and small pieces of iron.

6.  Move all metal digging tools when searching.

7.  The SENS level is generally opposite the DISC 

setting. The higher the sensitivity level is, the 
worse the discrimination will be. You can lower 
the sensitivity to have better discrimination.
