Terminology The following terms are used throughout the manual and are common terminology among detectorists. Elimination Reference to a metal being “eliminated” means that the detector will not emit a tone, nor light up an indicator, when a specified object passes through the coil’s detection field.
Adjusting the search coil Loosen the knobs at the search coil’s end; adjust the search coil to the desired angle. (The search coil should be parallel with the ground.) Tighten the knobs just enough to keep the search coil from rotating or wonbling. Batteries Your metal detector is powered by two 9V batteries (not included). 2. Unscrew the knobs on the lower stem (2) and remove the knob, washer and the connector. Insert the lower stem and align the holes on the search coil (3) bracket and the stem.

Indoor Testing and Use be displayed on the LCD. Meanwhile, the detector will not have reaction to the target. For example, the numeric range for IRON is 0-5. If you set the DISC numeric value to 6, IRON will not be displayed on LCD. Meanwhile the detector will have no reaction to IRON during the detection. You can ignore the unwanted target on LCD one by one from left to right by setting the relative DISC numeric value. 1. Position the detector: a.
Note: • It is not recommended to notch all targets listed on the LCD screen; notching all settings will filter out all metals, so you will not be detecting anything. • If you want to select the setting of DISC or SENS after pressing NOTCH, you have to wait for about 3 seconds until the cursor above the target has been notched out. Target Indications Numeric Ranges of Target 3. Set up sensitivity: Press SENS and then press + or – to set the sensitivity. The default level is of 6 bars.
Outdoor Testing and Use 1. Turn the VOLUME switch clockwise to power on the metal detector. 2. Follow the steps of 2 described in section of “Indoor Testing and Use” to set the operating mode. 3. Find an area on the ground outside where there is no metal stuff like sprayer in the yard. 4. Place a metal sample you want the detector to find (such as a gold ring or a coin) on the ground.
Follow these steps to pinpoint a target. • When the detector detects a buried target, continue sweeping the search coil over the target in a narrowing side-to- side motion. • Make a visual note of exact spot on the ground where the detector beeps. • Stop the search coil directly over this point on the ground. Move the search coil straight forward away from you and straight back towards you a couple of times. • Repeat steps 1-3 at a right angle to the original search line. Make a mark of “X”.
CAUTION: • The search coil is water proof, and it can be completely under the fresh water or sea water. Please be careful to avoid the water enter into machine body. Sea water may erode the search coil. Please always use fresh water to clean the search coil after detection in sea water. • Change or damage the inner components will cause the detector fault, and such fault is not within our warranty.
