Page 5 Functions and Indicators On/Off/Volume - Turns on power to the unit and sets the sound level. SAFETy SENS - Sets the sensitivity level of the unit. Zero setting is the lowest level and 10 is the highest. For general use, set the sensitivity to a higher position. In a mineralized area, or area with electrical interference, a lower setting may be more effective. MODE - Sets the unit to three modes: DISC, ALL METAL and TONE. Target Button - It is used with ALL METAL mode to pinpoint a target object’s location. DISc/TONE - Adjustment knob for metal identification. View Meter - Registers signal strength when a metal is detected. SETUp - DISC, ALL METAL, and TONE are motion modes. You have to move the Search Coil to find your target object. - Target Mode is for pinpointing the location of the item when the item is below the surface. LOW BATTERY Indicator View Meter (1) Target Button DISC/TONE (2) On/Off/ VOLUME (2) MODE Switch SENS (2) Headphone Input (11) Figure 3 Before Getting Started Before beginning an outside search, you must test the unit with samples of metal. Use the following: • an iron nail • a five-cent coin (nickel) • a one-cent penny (zinc coin, after 1982) • a 25-cent silver quarter. OpERATION Place the Metal Detector on a wooden or plastic table with the Search Coil face up. Make sure the table is away from TVs, computers, or any device that can cause electromagnetic interference. See Figure 4. Figure 5 Sweep the metal samples 2 to 3 inches or more above the center of the Search Coil. The Metal Detector will respond to each with a “DI” tone and the pointer on the View Meter will swing to the right. NOTE: Be sure to move the samples, as the Detector is in motion mode. Otherwise the Detector will not respond. NOTE: Adjusting the SENS dial from “0” to “10” will increase the Detector’s sensitivity. MAINTENANcE Figure 4 NOTE: Be sure to remove any watches, rings, or other metal objects on your fingers and hands. Turn on the Metal Detector and set the VOLUME dial to the middle position. Set the MODE switch to the middle (ALL METAL). See Figure 5. Use the DISC/TONE dial to search for specific metals by having it not detect (“differentiate”) other kinds of metals. Gold DISc/TONE Knob Iron Nickel Zinc Copper 0 10 Aluminum/ Silver Figure 6 Page 6 For technical questions, please call 1-888-866-5797. Item 62307 1. To adjust the settings to PREVENT the unit from detecting iron metals, set the VOLUME and SENS dials at midpoint. 2. Then set MODE switch to DISC and the DISC/ TONE dial to about “9 o’clock.” See Figure 7. By now, only the silver quarter should be detected. NOTE: The discrimination position of aluminum is similar to silver. So both metals will be detected at the same time. The discrimination position of gold is similar to the nickel setting. The Metal Detector can also be adjusted to detect all metals, yet signal a specific metal differently from the others. 6. Set the MODE switch to TONE and the VOLUME and SENS dials to their halfway points. SAFETy For example, when the DISC/TONE dial is set to “0” the Detector will respond to ANY metal object with a “DI” tone and the meter will swing to the right. 7. Set the DISC/TONE dial to about “9 o’clock” (the iron setting). Sweep the nail 2-3 inches above the Search Coil. The unit will make a short “KO” sound and the meter will swing to the right. Sweeping any of the other samples will produce the “DI” sound. 4. To have the unit differentiate nickel metals, set the DISC/TONE to about “11 o’clock.” See Figure 8. Sweep the nickel in front of the Search Coil; the unit will not respond to the nickel or to the iron nail. But it will respond the other samples. To use the Metal Detector to “target’ specific metals, set the MODE switch to ALL METAL and the VOLUME and SENS dials to the middle. 9. Press the red TARGET Button (6) on the panel. Set the silver quarter about five inches from the center of the Search Coil. The unit will make a continuous long tone and the meter will swing to the right. See Figure 10. Target Button (6) 25¢ Figure 10 5. To prevent the zinc penny from being detected, set the DISC/TONE dial to about “1 o’clock” See Figure 9. 11. NOTE: Even though the coin’s location has not changed, when the unit’s sensitivity is reduced the Metal Detector will stop sounding a tone. 12. Repeat the above operation, bringing the coin closer to the Detector and making it sound a tone. Once operating an outside search, you can use the TARGET button to determine the location of the metal. MAINTENANcE Figure 8 10. Keeping the coin still, release the TARGET button. Wait two seconds, then press down the TARGET button again; the unit’s sensitivity will be reduced. Figure 9 Item 62307 OpERATION Figure 7 3. As a test, sweep the iron nail sample 2 to 3 inches above the search coil. The unit will NOT respond (the meter pointer won’t swing and the unit is silent.) Sweeping the other samples should produce the “DI” tone and make the pointer move. SETUp 8. Rotate the DISC/TONE dial to mark the other specific metals with the “KO” sound. For technical questions, please call 1-888-866-5797. Page 7 General Operating Instructions Once all the proper tests and adjustments have been made, the Metal Detector is ready to be used outdoors. SAFETy 1. When first searching, set the Mode button to ALL METAL and SENS to the highest level. 2. Adjust the VOLUME to the desired level. 3. Sweep the Search Coil (19) slowly back and forth in an arc, keeping it about 1/2” to 2” from the ground. See Figure 11, above. 4. If you hear a beeping noise or see the needle jump to the right on the View Meter), you have located a metal object. 5. Use the TARGET button to pin-point the object. Then use the DISC or TONE modes to determine what kind of metal it is and whether you wish to dig out the item. 6. To prevent accidents, turn off the tool and remove the batteries after use. Clean, then store the tool indoors out of children’s reach. SETUp Figure 11 Tips for Searching in Different Environments There are many factors which influence the sensitivity and accuracy of detecting objects, including the angle, depth, size and oxidation of the target object. Various soil or seawater conditions, and also electromagnetic and electrical interference surrounding the target can also affect readings. Other metal detectors in the area will also cause interference, so when there is more than one unit in use, be sure they are at least 10 yards apart. Some ways to help increase success are: OpERATION 1. If there is interference from similar metal detectors in your searching area, lower the SENS setting to stop the interference. 2. If there is interference from electrical cables, TV, radio, or other electrical devices in your searching area, lower the SENS setting. 3. When searching in highly mineralized areas, the unit may sound even if there is no metal. Lower the SENS setting, set the DISC to high and increase the distance of the Search Coil from the ground until the false signal disappears. To set the DISC setting, place a test metal object in highly mineralized earth or wet sand and adjust the setting before beginning. 4. When searching in a trash area, set the DISC to the middle setting so that the unit can reject most invaluable metals such as nails, bottle caps, cans, and small pieces of iron. 5. Move all metal digging tools when searching. 6. The SENS level is generally opposite the DISC setting. The higher the sensitivity level is, the worse the discrimination will be. You can lower the sensitivity to have better discrimination. MAINTENANcE Page 8 For technical questions, please call 1-888-866-5797.
