TESTING AND USING THE DECTECTOR
The model GC-1039 metal detector has three operation modes: ALL METAL, DISC and
PINPOINT. ALL METAL is used to find all kinds of metal targets. DISC is used to discriminate the
metal type. PINPOINT is used to locate the target accurately.
In general case, user firstly sets the operation mode to ALL METAL, DISC to counter clockwise
end, SENS to high position. Then hold the search coil parallel with the ground about 1~5 cm
above the surface. Sweep the search coil from side to side in an arc line of 7cm motion.
When the detector detects a buried target, it sounds a tone. User can make a visual note of exact
spot on the ground where the detector beeps.
Then stop the search coil directly over this point on the ground. Move the search coil straight
forward away from you and straight back towards you a couple of times.
In ALL METAL mode, when you find metal object, you can also press PINPOINT to locate the
target. Hold the search coil 50cm or more away from the ground. Press and hold down this button.
Sweep the search coil over the sound area and release the button when you hear a sound. After
about 1~2 seconds, hold down the red button again, the sound disappears. Closer the search coil
to the ground and you’ll hear the sound again. Repeat the above
