6. FIELD OPERATION
The recommended search position is a 45° angle from the earth’s surface. Scan the
locator pole from side-to-side in a slow sweeping motion while walking in a steady
direction. Maintain a consistent height above the ground during the side-to-side
sweeping motion.
Once the object being searched is located, pinpointing the object’s location can be
accomplished by holding the locator vertically and sweeping it in an “X” pattern until
the absolute signal peak is found (Fig. 2). The audio sound and visual LCD display will
provide the pinpointing results.
Please note that your magnetic locator is not only sensitive to buried ferrous objects,
but also to items in your possession. Ferrous objects such as steel tipped shoes, a
pocket knife, some wrist watches, key chains or other objects containing ferrous
material can cause false signals during your search.
The locator is not affected by the presence of nonferrous objects, such as copper,
aluminum pull tabs or foil, and other forms of trash that may be present in the
ground. Snow, ice, water, wood, plastic, concrete, stones, and the ground itself have
no effect on the performance of the locator.
