TERMINOLOGY The following terms are the common terminologies among the metal detector. Motion Mode Continuously moving the search coil is one of the circuit operation modes within the metal detector's built-in detection technologies. You have to move the search coil during detecting -- preferably in a overlapping 'painting' pattern.
Iron Iron is a common metal, it’s usually not the dedicated detection target. Undesirable iron objects include iron nails, bolts, old cans, caps, etc. Valuable relics and sought after materials can also be composed of iron, such as old armaments, old armature, etc . So, it may be best to pay attention to everything you detect! Ferrous Metals It is the metal which is made of, or containing, iron.
Assembly Wind the cable around the aluminum tube arm, keep the elastic moderately tight/loose, so that the cable won’t sway or interfere with operation and clothing. Tighten appropriately the two ends nuts, and adjust the search coil location to let the search coil be parallel with the ground. Be careful not to mistake the search coil location. Battery Please use 6 Alkaline 'AA' batteries.
LCD Digital Display Screen During detecting, the metal targets are divided into three categories by the target identification cursor. SILVER - Higher conductivity metals, such as silver, aluminum and copper (Such as coins: .25cents, 50cents and 1 U.S. dollar coin can be illumined at this point) MID RANGE - Medium conductivity metals, (Such as pull-tabs, 5 cents nickel coin,1 cent zinc coin and many other European coins can be illumined at this point.

Powering On Press the POWER ON button, the detector will sound three frequencies of low, medium and high tones, the liquid crystal dsplay shows the discrimination mode and the sensitivity. *When the TARGET ID is not illuminated, that indicates the metal detector is in the 'ALL METAL' mode. *Whichever 'DEPTH-SENS' segment is highlighted, that indicates the metal detector has detected an object within that depth range.

Motion detection When detecting using the moving 'Motion Mode', you should sweep the search coil at a constant (fairly slow and steady) speed, and let the search coil remain parallel with the ground floor surface. Preferred height distance of the coil from the ground floor surface is about 1/2 inches (1.5cm) directly above the ground surface. *For optimum metal detecting performance, never sweep the search coil as if it were a pendulum.
continue moving forward. Take the time to practice and experiment the ideal sweeping speed and style. Learning, experimenting and discovering is all a part of the experience and you will gradually develop metal detecting skills and sought-after habits over time. Pinpoint your finding When there is a clear signal to show you the location of the buried target objects, you can make an “X” scan at this zone, generally the bottom of the intersection point is the target object.
Troubleshooting SYMPTOM No power, there is no indication on the LCD display, there is no sound when powering on SOLUTION 1.Be sure batteries are installed correctly. 2.Be sure battery cover is closed correctly. 3.Replace the batteries. Sound heard is an irregular tone, or the target identification cursor chatters / distorts Make sure there are no electromagnetic interference sources present, such as power lines, cables, electronic fences, etc.
