Once the approximate target location is
known, move the coil outside of that area
and press
PINPOINT.
Sweep the coil over the target location. The
menu scale segments on the LCD indicate
how close the target is to the center of the
coil. The detector will only produce a high
volume when the center-ring of the coil is
directly above the target.
Taking note of the detector’s response, reduce
the span of each successive pass of the coil
until you are confident of the target’s location.
Make a mental note of the position or, if the
ground is sandy, mark a line with your shoe
or a digging tool.
Move to one side so that you can pass the
coil over the target at a right angle to your
initial direction.
When the detector sounds
you should know exactly where to dig.
If you have difficulty pinpointing the target,
press PINPOINT DETECT again to take the detector
out of pinpoint and then return to Step 1.
