Operation of the Sensitivity
This control is extremely helpful in elimination false signals caused by
high minerals.
The normal sensitivity range is between 6 and 7 and good for most soil
conditions. If you are experiencing false signals you should decrease
this control until these false signals are minimized.
TIP: Try running the detector at the highest sensitivity range of 10 you
will get better depth on older coins with minimal false signals.
• As you increase the shaft length, you need to put forth your strength
more with your wrist and arm.
• For use to search over the land or shallow water, please keep the coil
with the level of ground at least 1” from surface.
• For diving, the stem’s length should be as short as possible.
