 ACTUAL OPERATION 

 

 

 

OPERATION MODE SWITCH  
(MODE) 
 

There are two sections in operation 
mode switch, one is GROUND 
BALANCE, and the other is 
“DISCRIMINATION”.  
 

 

 

Set MODE to “GROUND 
BALANCE”, the detector responds 
to all metals, has no discrimination 
function, but can eliminate the 
effect of “minerlization reaction”,  
has enough penetrability, works 
steadily, and indicates properly, so, 
this mode is usually selected at the 
beginning of detecting some area. 
 
Set MODE to 
“DISCRIMINATION” the detector 
can distinguish the type of the metal 
and select the bigger and valuable 
metal.

PREPARATION: 

 

Place batteries into the battery 
compartment, turn on the power 
supply switch, the detector is 
electrified to work. The pointer is 
usual not at the center of the 
viewmeter when detector is just 
on, but swings to one side. This 
expresses that the detector is not 
in a steady mode, you need to 
press and relieve the “Zeroing 
Button” a few times until the 
pointer doesn’t drift any longer. 
All of these are normal 
phenomena. The detector needs a 
short time to preheat, during this 
period, the search coil should rest 
over the ground and begin to 
work only after the pointer return 
to “0” position. Watch the 

 

indictor light when you press the 
button, if the light is dim or dark, 
replace the batteries. 
 
In detection, the operator holds 
the handle and sweeps slowly the 
search coil above the ground, 
keeps the search coil 8inch above 
the ground. When finding metals, 
the detector responds and the 
viewmeter indicates change. 

 

 

z

 

To disconnect the search 
coil’s cable from the 
detector, grasp the plug and 
pull it out of the connector. 
Never pull on the cable. 

 
7.

 

Loosen the knob at the search 
coil’s end, then adjust the 
search coil to the desired angle. 
(The search coil should be 
parallel with the ground.) 
Tighten the knob just enough 
to keep the search coil from 
rotating or wobbling. 
 

Caution:

 Do not overtighten 

the search coil or use tools 
such as pliers to tighten it. 

 

INSTALLING BATTERIES 

 
You need 8 pieces of 1.5V 
batteries to power your detector. 
 
       

Cautions: 

 

z

 

Use only fresh batteries of 
the required size and 
recommended type. 

 

z

 

Do not mix old and new 
batteries, different types of 
batteries (standard, alkaline, 
of rechargeable), or 
rechargeable batteries of 
different capacities 

 
 

 

 

1. If the detector is ON, turn it to 
OFF.  

 

 

2.

 

Press the right battery 
compartment cover’s tab and 
slide the cover off in the 
direction of the arrow. 

 
3.

 

Place 4 pieces of 1.5V battery 
into the battery compartment on 
top of the ribbon, matching the 
polarity symbols (+and -). 

 
4.

 

Replace the right battery 
compartment cover.
