IN THE FIELD TECHNIQUES

When pinpointing a target, try drawing an “X”,

as illustrated, over where the tone is induced.

PINPOINTING

Accurate pinpointing takes practice
and is best accomplished by
“X-ing” the target area.

1. Once a buried target is indicated

by a good tone response,
continue sweeping the coil over
the target in a narrowing
side-to-side pattern.

2. Take visual note of the place on

the ground where the “beep”
sounds.

3. Stop the coil directly over this

spot on the ground.

4. Now move the coil straight

forward and straight back
towards you a couple of times.

5. Again make visual note of the

spot on the ground at which
the “beep” sounds.

6. If needed, “X” the target at

different angles to “zero in” on
the exact spot on the ground at
which the “beep” sounds.

COIL MOVEMENT

When swinging the coil, be
careful to keep it level with the
ground about one inch from the
surface. Never swing the coil like
a pendulum.

CORRECT

WRONG

Use ALKALINE

batteries only.

To install the

batteries:

1

Remove the
battery cover by
disengaging the
clip at the back.

2

Align the polarity
of the batteries
correctly, with
the positive "+"
toward the coil
plug connection,
as indicated by
the + and –
indicators on the
housing.

3

Insert (2) 9-Volt ALKALINE batteries, with the contacts pointed inward,
and press down on the back of the batteries to snap them into place.

Some brands of batteries will require moderate force to clear the
retaining tabs.

4

Replace the battery door.

The Low Battery Indicator will come on and stay on if the batteries need
to be replaced.

Most metal detector problems are due to improperly installed batteries,
or the use of non-alkaline or discharged batteries. If the detector does
not turn on, please check the batteries.
