DETECTION HINTS
No detector is 100 percent accurate. Various conditions influence metal
detection. The detector's reaction depends on a number of things :
•
The angle at which the object rests in the ground.
•
The depth of the object.
•
The amount of iron in the object.
•
The size of the object.
OPERATION
====================================================
Your Discriminator Metal Detector distinguishes between ferrous and
non-ferrous metals. Ferrous metals contain iron, while non-ferrous metals such
as gold, silver, copper, platinum, aluminium, lead and zinc do not.
When the detector senses a metallic object, the meter reading changes, the
NON-FERROUS or FERROUS indicator turns on or off and the detector
sounds one of three tones. The actual reaction depends on what metal is
detected. The higher the tone pitch, the stronger the detection.
PREPARING THE DETECTOR
Turning On the Detector
Hold the detector in a comfortable position, then rotate VOLUME away from
OFF to the desired sound level. Set OPERATE/BATT TEST to OPERATE to
detect.
