easily removed from the handle and attached to a belt clip.
“Hipmounting” the CZ-20 in this manner takes about half the
weight off the handle and allows the land or shallow-water
treasure hunter to search much longer without arm fatigue.
1. Grasp the handle grip firmly with one hand and the
control housing with the other.
2. Slide the control housing off the mounting bracket
by pulling it toward you.
3. Slide the belt clip into grooves on the bottom of
the control housing. This is a snug fit, and you’ll have
to bend the clip slightly.
4. Unwrap just enough of the coil cable to allow for
searching.
5. Slip the control housing onto your belt, left side for
right handers, right side for left handers.
NOTE: Because of the extreme sensitivity of the CZ-20 search
coil, hipmounting the control housing may produce a false
signal when the search coil reaches the end of its arc (on the
side that the control box is attached to your belt). Depending
on your stem length and how high you have the housing
hipmounted, the search coil may actually detect the housing.

a) Shallow coins (at or near the surface) or coins
on edge will give a double beep: one on
either side of the coin, just like a nail. Like the
nail, the coin on edge will give a single beep
directly over the target if you sweep at right
angles to your original position.
b) A coin lying in the ground at an angle (as
shown) may give a single target response but
may pinpoint several inches away from its true
location. Check around the inside edges of
the hole. If you still don’t find it, enlarge the
hole by a couple of inches.
c) A large, deep target, like a buried pipe or a
manhole cover at 2 feet, will often give a
good, strong coin signal. If you’ve dug down
a foot and widened your hole several times,
give up.
