Wiping should be done by keeping the search coil parallel to the soil surface while avoiding
excessive rubbing of the coil on the floor as shown in the figure.
In order for the search to be complete and without leaving unchecked areas, it is not possible to move
and move randomly, but by moving it from side to side, moving forward slowly at the end of each
scanning movement. Overlap a little with the previous sweep to make sure the floor is completely
covered. So that the average speed of a single scan movement is 2 to 3 seconds from right to left to right.
When moving the search coil during the search, the search coil must be kept perpendicular to the
surface of the soil, as this will increase the depth of detection and improve the detector's response to
small objects.
