Factors that affect detecting 

 

 

The angle of the target buried in the soil. 

 

The depth of the target. 

 

The level of oxidisation of the target. 

 

The size of the target. 

 

Electro-magnetic and electrical interference surrounding the target. 

 

In the area of highly mineralised ground or wet sand, the detector will sound even if there is 
no metal. In this case, lower the sensitivity or increase the DISC numeric value, and increase 
the distance between the search coil and the ground. 

In an area with excessive scrap metal, you can set DISC numeric value to 50. In this case, 
most nails and small pieces of iron will be eliminated. 

Metallic digging tools will also affect the detection if they are near the search coil. 

 

 

Helpful hints 

 

 

You can secure the detector to your wrist using the attached wrist strap.  

 

Before submerging the detector, always make sure the battery compartment seal 
is secure. 

 

Always use high-quality batteries such as alkaline or nickel-metal hydride (NiMH).
