OPERATION
HOW TO TURN THE DETECTOR ON OR OFF
• Rotate the THRESHOLD control clockwise to turn the Metal Detector
ON.
• Rotate the THRESHOLD control fully to the left to turn the Metal
Detector OFF.
DETECTION MODES
There are 3 ways to detect metal using this metal detector.
ALL METAL
This MODE detects every type of metal and must be used when the material
of the required object is not known.
DISCRIMINATION
This mode rejects some types of metal depending on the setting of the DISC/
TONE dial.
At setting '0' the detector detects almost all metal. As you increase the setting
more objects are rejected. On a high setting only the most conductive metals
are found.
NOTE: If the control is set too high, then modern coins are rejected.
TONE
The TONE mode discriminates between different types of metal with high or
low pitched tones.
SEARCH HINTS
• You must move the search coil from side to side in an arc
approximately 15 cm wide.
• Do not swing the search coil like a pendulum, raising the sides. This
will give you false readings.
• Sweep the search coil at a slow even pace.
