How To Pinpoint Targets Using The
PINPOINT Mode
When you’ve discovered a target you wish to dig,
do the following:

1. Hold the searchcoil about half an inch above the ground,

off to the side of where you think the target probably is.

2. Tap the PINPOINT touchpad button. This will put you into the All Metal Pinpoint

mode. NOTE: unlike the other modes, this mode does not require the searchcoil to

be in motion to detect a target.

3. Lift the searchcoil slightly, and pass it over the target. The sound will be loudest over

the center of the target.

To Narrow It Down Further:

4. Now that you know about where the target is, again lower the searchcoil to about half

an inch above the ground, near the center of the target but not right over the top. Tap

the button again. The sound will instantly go away.

5. Lift the searchcoil slightly and move it horizontally

over the target. The audible response zone will be

much narrower. If you move the searchcoil around

right and left and also forward and back, making an

“X” pattern over the target, you can determine the

location of the target usually within an inch or two.

NOTE: if at any time it seems like the signal may be

drifting, just tap the Pinpoint button. This restores

the signal to its zero level.
