With your metal detector, you can hunt for coins, relics, jewelry, gold, and silver just about anywhere. The detector is versatile and easy to use. The detector’s features include: LCD Display—shows the probable type of metal with an arrow, the depth of the target, DISC/NOTCH range, the level of SENS with segment, the operating mode, and low battery indication. Three Tone Audio Discrimination—sounds distinctive tones for different types of metal.
PREPARATION ASSEMBLING THE DETECTOR Assembling your detector is easy and requires no special tools. Just follow these steps. 1. Insert the latch on the top of the handle into the assembly hole on the bottom of the control box. Then slightly pull the handle in the direction of IN on the handle to fix the latch in place. Secure the control box with fixing screw properly. Control box Fixing screw Assembly hole latch 2. Unscrew the knob on the search coil and remove the knob connector.
Do not overtighten the search coil or use tools such as pliers to tighten it. You don’t need to disassemble the stem lock nut. In case you disassemble it carelessly, place the washer on the top of the stem connected with the handle with the small head of the washer upwards. Then hitch the stem lock nut on the washer then tighten it to lock it in place. Small head INSTALLING THE BATTERIES Cautions: Use only fresh alkaline batteries of required size.
3~4hours of operation. USING HEADPHONES 1. Insert the headphones’ 3.5mm plug into the PHONE jack. At this time the internal speaker disconnects. 2. Set the VOLUME to the desired setting. PHONE Listening Safely To protect your hearing, set the volume to the lowest setting before you begin listening, adjust the volume to a comfortable level. Do not listen at extremely high volume levels. Extended high volume listening can lead to permanent hearing loss.
2. DISPLAYS The indicator of target includes target icons and LCD displays and is located at the top of the detector. It can indicate coins of different type, gold, silver etc. When the detector detects an object, an arrow appears below the target icon of probable type of metal being detected. Also displays the depth of the target. If the detector receives a strong signal, the arrow appears steadily. If the signal is weak, the arrow blinks or does not appear.
might register within PULL TAB category. S-CAPS—indicates that the target is probably a type of metal like bottle cap with whorl. Some medium sized gold rings might register within this category. 1¢—indicates that the target might be a zinc penny or a copper coin. Some large rough gold items might register within 1¢ category. SILVER Range 1¢ 25¢--indicates that the target is probably silver coin, 25¢ or 1¢. Some large aluminum coin might register within 1¢ 25¢ category.
OPERATION TURNING ON THE DETECTOR 1. Slide the power switch to ON. The unit displays all symbols on the LCD screen. The detector sounds low , medium, high tones respectively. After about 2 seconds the detector enters stand-by state. At this time the LCD displays ALL METAL and SENS. The value of SENS on the segment is 5. The range from MIN. to MAX. for DISC/NOTCH is available. 2. SETTING THE OPERATION MODE The detector comes with three operating modes of ALL METAL, DISC, NOTCH.
segment will indicate the selected types of metal. The detector can detect the selected metal type. TESTING AND USING THE DETECTOR To learn how the detector reacts to different metals, you should test it before you use it the first time. You can test the detector indoors and outdoors. Indoor Testing and Use 1. Slide POWER to ON 2. Set the operating mode. 3. Place the detector on a wooden or plastic table, then remove any watches, rings, or metal jewelry you are wearing. 4.
it so a flat side is parallel with the flat side of the search coil. A sweep with the side of coin over search coil might cause false indication and unstable display of arrow. Outdoor Testing and Use 1. Slide POWER to ON. Set the operating mode. 2. Find an area on the ground outside where there is no metal. 3. Place a sample of the material you want the detector to find (such as a gold ring or a coin) on the ground.
It’s better you sweep the search coil from side to side in an arc line of 3 inches motion and keep the search coil parallel with the ground. If the detector detects the item, it sounds a tone, an arrow and the depth appear on the display below the target icon. If the detector does not detect the item, make sure that the target mode is set correctly for the type of metal you’re searching for. Also make sure that you’re moving the search coil correctly.
broadcast antenna and other electronic lines. The detector will have unstable arrow and irregular tone indications. Application Hints Pinpointing The Target Accurately pinpointing a target makes digging it up easier. But it takes practice. We suggest you practice finding sample on your own property before you search other locations. Follow these steps to pinpoint a target. 1. When the detector detects a buried target, continue sweeping the search coil over the target in a narrowing side-to-side motion. 2.
1. Conditions For The Target Being Detected The angle of the target buried in the soil. The depth of the target. The level of oxidization of the target. The Size of the target. Electro-magnetic and electrical interference surrounding the target. If you detect patiently and correctly and practice more times, you’ll get satisfactory result. CARE AND MAINTENANCE Your metal detector is an example of superior design and craftsmanship.
