If you do not have prior experience with a

metal detector, we strongly recommend that

you:

1) Adjust the Sensitivity to

a low setting in the

event of false signals.

Always begin use at a

reduced sensitivity level.

Expect chatter or internal

noise at high sensitivity.

2) Do not use indoors. This detector is

for outdoor use only. Many household

appliances emit electromagnetic

energy, which can interfere with the

detector. If conducting an indoor

demonstration, turn the sensitivity

down and keep the searchcoil away

from appliances such as computers,

televisions and microwave ovens. If

your detector beeps erratically, turn off

appliances and lights.

Also keep the searchcoil away from

objects containing metal, such as

floors and walls.

3) Use a 9-volt ALKALINE battery only.

Do not use Heavy Duty Batteries.

DEPTH AND TARGET DISPLAY ASSEMBLY Adjusting the Armrest The armrest may be moved forward or backward by removing the single screw and nut, and then repositioning the 2-piece armrest. Users with shorter arms may find the armrest more comfortable in the forward position. In order to move the armrest backward, the plastic plug must be removed from the aluminum tube. Armrest Strap (optional accessory) The strap is available for purchase as a separate accessory.

ASSEMBLY (continued) TARGET IDENTIFICATION In DISCRIMINATION Mode, targets are identified both audibly and visually as follows: 1.Different pitch tones for different types of metals 2.A 2-digit Target-ID 3.An illuminated icon within the target category best describing it. Tones identify targets as follows: LOW TONE (ID: 1 - 39) Ferrous objects, such as iron and steel, like nails and tin cans.
PAGE 6
BATTERIES The detector requires a single 9-volt ALKALINE battery (battery not included). Do not use ordinary zinc carbon batteries. Do not use “Heavy Duty” batteries. Rechargeable batteries can also be used. If you wish to use rechargeable batteries, we recommend using a Nickel Metal Hydride rechargeable battery. The battery compartment is located on the back side of the housing. Slide the battery door to the side and remove it to expose the battery compartment.

OPERATION and CONTROLS (continued) MODE SELECTIONS There are three selections under the MODE section of the display. • Press • Press to toggle between DISCRIMINATION and ALL METAL. at any time to activate PINPOINT Mode. This mode is the default mode, and requires the searchcoil to be in motion in order to detect and identify targets. This is the mode most commonly used for continuous searching.

THE BASICS OF METAL DETECTING A hobby metal detector is intended for locating buried metal objects. When searching for metals, underground or on the surface, you have the following challenges and objectives: 1. Ignoring signals caused by ground minerals. 2. Ignoring signals caused by metal objects that you do not want to find, like pull-tabs. 3. Identifying a buried metal object before you dig it up. 4. Estimating the size and depth of objects, to facilitate digging them up. 5.

OPERATION and CONTROLS (continued) THE BASICS OF METAL DETECTING (continued) MENU SELECTIONS (cont.) 5. EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) 2. DISC. LEVEL and Use to increase or decrease DISCRIMINATION level. Each time you press , a target category is eliminated from detection. Elimination occurs from left to right. When a category description (for example “IRON”) disappears from the display, then targets classified in that category will not be detected. Pressing reverses the discrimination process.
PAGE 10
OPERATION and CONTROLS NOTE: Immediately after powering on, your detector's unique 10-digit serial number is displayed once on the LCD. Two digits are displayed at a time; five 2-digit numbers are displayed in sequence. This 10-digit serial number is the same serial number imprinted on the label inside the battery compartment. POWERING UP Press • The detector always starts in the DISCRIMINATION Mode. Motion is required. • Default sensitivity is at about 70% of maximum, (08).
