Quick Start

Ready to Dig

Permission

- Prior to searching and digging you

must have permission to search private property,

from the owner or caretaker.

Laws

- Know the laws that apply to the area you

are going to search. Laws vary a great deal with the

City, County, State, and Country, regarding the use

of metal detectors. Be respectful of private prop-

erty, public property, and the laws which govern the

use of metal detectors.

Tools

- Care must be taken to dig in a way that is

friendly to the landscape. Tools and methods vary a

great deal with the area, season, and types of target

you are recovering. Check with your dealer for

recommended tools and methods for your area.

Trash

- When searching, remove all trash you come

across. This not only makes your future searches of

the area more productive; it promotes the hobby of

metal detecting.

Get Involved -

Your dealer knows of metal detect-

ing clubs and organizations which promote and

protect the hobby. A club is a great way to not only

learn good detecting habits, but to gain permission

to search areas as a group as well as have organized

competition hunts.

Factory Preset Programs

Reached from the MAIN MENU, the factory PRE-

SET PROGRAMS give a quick start for:

Coins:

general purpose settings, discriminates (re-

jects) most common junk items like nails, foil, pull

tabs, and hot rocks; and responds to most coins and

large jewelry. Use in lawns, parks, and playgrounds

where lots of trash rejection is desired.

Coin & Jewelry:

less discrimination (less trash

rejection), desirable because of the high degree of

variance found in jewelry alloys. More digging

required. Good program for lawns, parks, and play-

grounds. Use screen in conjunction with sound.

Jewelry & Beach

: similar to Coin & Jewelry, but

settings are optimized for salt water.

Relic:

even less discrimination than Coin & Jew-

elry or Jewelry & Beach, all types of metals except

small iron items like nails, and some stainless steel.

Brass, lead, aluminum, as well as copper, silver,

and gold all respond solidly. Ferrous (iron), such

as large nails, weapons, and cannon ball fragments

will also respond . Suitable for all signiﬁ cant targets

and separates ferrous/nonferrous by display indica-

tions.

Prospecting:

NO AUDIO DISCRIMINATION. All

metals respond with

beep

. But V.D.I. numbers show

only for metals that could be gold. Dig only V.D.I.

number (possibility gold) targets and avoid iron.

Targets which cause an audio response, without

causing a V.D.I. number to appear on the display,

are not likely to be gold nuggets. Although high-

frequency gold-shooting detectors will respond

better, this mode will offer good results for the oc-

casional nugget hunter by responding to nuggets in

the six-grain and heavier category.
