6 cs 3 mx overview the cs3mx is a high performance metal detector operating on the ‘motion’ principle. This means that the search-head must be kept moving at a steady sweep speed to achieve optimum performance. There is a pin-point function which switches off the motion effect so that the search-hea...

7 cs 3 mx follow these simple steps to start using the cs3mx within minutes . . . 1) assemble the cs3mx by inserting the lower stem into the upper stem. 2) rotate the lower stem so that the search-head cable is coiled around the stem as shown in the photograph. 3) twist the locking device so that th...

4) pin-point. The ‘motion’ aspect of the cs3mx is switched off whilst the pin-point button is depressed. In pin-point mode the search-head can be held still to determine the precise target position. Pin-point mode operates in ‘all metal’, ie. Whatever level of discrimination you have preset will be ...

9 cs 3 mx adjust the position of the search-head so that it is parallel to the ground when the user is in a normal standing position. Tighten the wing-nut on the search- head retaining screw. Do not over-tighten. Friction of the head lugs against the neoprene washers keeps the search-head in positio...

10 the control box can be fitted to your belt using the clip provided. In belt mounted use, be sure to wind the search-head cable up the stem at least to the length adjuster and secure it with tape or cable tie. This is because the search- head is sensitive to metal objects above to some extent and t...

Observe polarity of the batteries (the spring contact goes against the flat, negative end of the battery). Roll the ba...

12 successful treasure hunting starts with a well researched site. Sweep the detector head from side to side with a steady relaxed motion. Keep the search- head parallel and as close as possible to the ground right across the arc of the sweep. The use of a search-head cover protects the head from ab...

Run the detector over the area again in pin-point mode to see if the metal object is still in the hole or in the piece of earth which you have just removed. Dig some more and sift through the earth until you find what you are looking for. Fil...

Sensitivity, ground effe & discrimination 14 you will be able to get more performance out of your detector if you understand the relationship between three aspects of detector operation - sensitivity, ground effect and discrimination. If you increase the power of a metal detector too much the ground...

However, the discriminate control must be used with care because some objects which could be valuable have similar electrical characteristics to rubbish items as far as the detector can tell. Higher levels of discrimination also have the effect of reducing the depth of detecti...
