LOCATE A TARGET MANUALLY
It is possible to locate a target successfully without using
Pinpoint Mode, however this requires practice. This method
may be required when a desirable target is surrounded
by trash.
1. Sweep the Coil slowly across the target location
keeping the Coil parallel to the ground.
2. Locate the centre of the target by listening for the
loudest target signal response.
3. Make a mental note of the position, or mark a line on
the soil with your shoe or a digging tool.
4. Move to one side so that you can pass the Coil over the
target at right angles to your initial direction.
5. Repeat steps 1 and 3 from your new position. The target
is located where the two imaginary lines cross.
Beep!
Make a line where the
strongest signal is heard.
Stand at right-angles to your
initial position and repeat.
The intersection of the two
lines marks the exact location
of the target.
