IN THE FIELD TECHNIQUES

(motion modes only)

When pinpointing a target, try drawing an “X”,

as illustrated, over where the tone is induced.

PINPOINTING IN MOTION MODES

Accurate pinpointing takes practice
and is best accomplished by
“X-ing” the target area.

1. Once a buried target is indicated

by a good tone response,
continue sweeping the coil over
the target in a narrowing
side-to-side pattern.

2. Take visual note of the place on

the ground where the “beep”
sounds.

3. Stop the coil directly over this

spot on the ground.

4. Now move the coil straight

forward and straight back
towards you a couple of times.

5. Again make visual note of the

spot on the ground at which
the “beep” sounds.

6. If needed, “X” the target at

different angles to “zero in” on
the exact spot on the ground at
which the “beep” sounds.

COIL MOVEMENT

When swinging the coil, be
careful to keep it level with the
ground about 1/2 inch from the
surface. Never swing the coil like
a pendulum.
