GMAXX II is a motion detector, which means that target detection can
be carried out only when the search coil is moving.
When you detect an area, it is important to sweep with the head as
close as possible to the ground with wide movements, but not making
contact with the ground.
Keep the head parallel to the ground following the relief as much as
possible.
To pinpoint a target, use quick crossed sweeps,
with the coil over the target taking note of where the strongest audio
signal is received.
The exact location of the target is under the centre line of the search
coil from front to back and can
then be determined by ‘x ing’.
