GROUND________________________________
With this control you can correct ground effects and
more accurately reject ferrous minerals or any
pottery containing iron oxides.
If you are prospecting on grounds loaded with
magnetic stones, it might be a good idea to keep a
sample of these stones on you to adjust your detector before
detecting this type of ground. You only need to move a magnetic
stone in front of the search coil turning slowly the GROUND control
from left to right so as to obtain a total rejection of the stone.
If the mineralization is too scattered, sweep the head on the
ground and turn the control progressively from left to right in order
to get good stable detector. On mineralised grounds, these
procedures will optimise your searches.
For maximum depth detection, do not turn this setting
towards the right more than necessary. The red arrow
indicates a basic position suitable for most ground.
