QUICK START GUIDE
STEP 1. POWER ON
Switch your detector on.
The LCD will light up with several icons.
STEP 2. BEGIN DETECTING
Sweep the coil over the ground in a side-to-side motion.
The detector will light up and beep when a metal object is found.
FIND MODES
FIND modes allow you to search for specic groups of metal objects by
accepting or rejecting detection. No need to dig the trash – just the treasure!
Cycle through the dierent modes using the Find button.
DETECTOR SOUNDS
The detector beeps when an object is detected. This sound can be heard
through the detector speaker or through ear buds/headphones connected to
the audio output socket (refer to control panel diagram).
SWEEP LEVEL Keep the coil 1–2
inches (2–3 cm) above and parallel to
the ground at all times.
SPEED Sweep the coil over the
ground in a side-to-side motion, an
average sweep speed is 1–2 seconds
from left to right.
ADJUSTMENT The detector should
be straight with your forearm and
feel light and comfortable when you
pick it up.
SPACE Recommended distance is
50 feet (15 m) apart when multiple
users are scanning an area.
OVERLAP SWEEP Slightly overlap the
previous sweep to ensure full ground
coverage.

Treasure View LEDs light up when a metal object has been detected.
As you get closer to the target, more LEDs illuminate.
RED indicates an iron metal object (possibly trash).
GREEN indicates a non-iron metal object (possibly treasure).
ORANGE indicates Pinpoint mode for all metal objects.
LEDs will illuminate from left to right when Pinpoint is o.
ICON DESCRIPTIONS
When a metal object is detected, the corresponding icon will ash on
the control panel to indicate the target type. If the icon is turned o (not
visible) then these object types will not be detected.
ITEM FOUND The detector will
light up and beep when a target is
discovered.
LOW TONE: Iron targets (such as nails) produce the lowest tone.
MID 1 TONE (GO‑FIND 40/60 ONLY): Less valuable metals produce a lower medium tone.
MID 2 TONE (GO‑FIND 60 ONLY): Higher value metals produce a higher medium tone.
HIGH TONE: Silver and copper targets produce the highest tone.
E.g. Iron objects, nails and
horseshoes.
E.g. Aluminium foil and lower
value coins.
E.g. Rings, pull tabs and lower
value coins.
E.g. Low and high value coins
and screw caps.
LEDs will illuminate towards the center when Pinpoint in on.
This helps identify the exact location of the object.
