Operation
Preparing the Detector
Your metal detector distinguishes between ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
Ferrous metals contain iron, while non-ferrous metals such as gold, copper,
platinum, lead, nickel do not. The detector cannot discriminate between silver,
aluminum and fine copper.
When the detector senses a metallic object the meter reading changes.
TURNING ON THE DETECTOR
Hold the detector in a comfortable position and then
rotate VOLUME away from OFF to the desired sound
level.
TUNING THE DETECTOR
1. Rotate VOLUME to the 11 o’clock position.
2. Set DISCRIMINATION to its midpoint.
3. Hold the search coil about 1 foot above the ground and keep away from any
metal objects.
4. Hold down the RED button on the handle until the pointer on the view meter
rests at or near 0, then release the RED button.
5. Note: Press the RED button on the handle at any time during operation to
automatically return the pointer to 0.
