Relic-Hunting and Coin-Shooting
with the Optional 11” DD Searchcoil
While the Gold Bug™ Pro is a high performance, specialized gold prospecting
metal detector, it is also a good multi-purpose detector. With the purchase of an
11” DD searchcoil, you can bring more power to your coin-shooting and relic-
hunting searches.
The standard 5” Gold Bug™ Pro searchcoil is engineered for precision and is
best at finding the smallest gold nuggets that most other gold prospecting
detectors would miss.
If you want a larger sweep area and deeper detection, the 11” DD should be
considered.
Advantages of the 11” DD searchcoil over the standard 5” searchcoil are:
1. Deeper detection
2. Broader sweep (cover more area in less time)
Disadvantages of the 11” DD searchcoil are:
1. Less separation between adjacent buried targets.
Not as good at extremely trashy sites.
2. Loss of sensitivity to the tiniest gold pieces.
3. Does not fit into tight spaces as well.
Notice:
If you use the 11” DD
searchcoil, DO NOT
install
a rubber washer at the
searchcoil connection point.

requires no tools.
●
1 Position S-Rod upright.
●
2 Rotate the LOCKING
COLLAR fully in
the
counterclockwise
direction.
●
3 Insert your finger
inside the tube and
make sure the INTERNAL CAM LOCK is flush with the
inside of the tube.

until it locks.
●
7 Repeat this process on the LOWER STEM.
●
8 Using the BOLT and KNURLED KNOB, attach the
SEARCHCOIL to the LOWER STEM.
●
9 Adjust the LOWER STEM to a length that lets you maintain a
comfortable upright posture, with your arm relaxed at your side,
and the SEARCHCOIL parallel to the ground in front of you.
●
10 Wind the CABLE securely around the STEMS.

11 Connect CABLE PLUG to housing.
Do not twist the Cable or Plug. Turn Locking Ring only. Use
minimal finger pressure to start the threads. Do not cross-
thread. When the Locking Ring is fully engaged over the
threaded connector, give it a firm turn to make sure that it is
very tight. When the Locking Ring is fully engaged over the
threaded connector, it may not cover all of the threads.
