The Meter:

The Meter is used to test the battery strength, and provides a visual indication of a metal by detecting

positively (to the right). The meter and the sound "beep" work simultaneously to provide an indication of

metal.

Fifteen Inch Loop:

The optional (accessory) fifteen inch loop increases detection depth regarding physically large targets. Lit-

tle or no increase in detection depth may be noted on small (coin sized) targets. The increase in detection

depth applies only to physically large metal items, or a large group of small targets (jar of coins). Tuning

and use of the fifteen inch loop is identical to use of the smaller loop size. Sweeping the loop a little slower

is suggested when the larger loop is used. If you have trouble with the added weight of the fifteen inch

loop you may consider Whiteʼs Hipmount Conversion Kit, or contact your Dealer for other handle support

options.

Headphones:

The optional (accessory) headphones are recommended for use with the Sierra Madre. Headphones will

increase battery life, reduce distractions, and allow better hearing of the signals produced by metals, Most

often headphones have separate volume controls for each ear, and a stereo/mono switch. Check that each is

in the correct position so that sound is heard from both ears.
