User manual C-SCOPE CS1MX

[. . . ] Start searching using a relaxed motion swinging the search-head from side to side as close to the ground as possible. You are now searching in discrimination mode. The presence of a metal target will be indicated by the increasing intensity of the tone. [. . . ] Adjust the stem for length according to your height (it's easier on your back if you can stand up straight while detecting) and tighten the twistlock stem adjuster (6). Check that the search-head (7) is parallel to the ground when being swept in an arc and tighten (be careful not to over-tighten) the search-head retaining screw (8). (Keep these parts clean - if they become covered in mud or sand wash and dry these parts at the end of a day's detecting. Don't allow any form of lubricant onto the rubber friction washers. ) Battery: Push back the retaining clip and remove the cover (13) of the battery compartment (12). Fit a 9 volt battery (MN1604, PP3 or equivalent). There are guide strips to ensure the battery is fitted the right way round. It should slide in easily to connect with contact strips in the compartment. Remove the battery if the detector is to be stored for more than a few days. Searching Technique Sweep the detector head from side to side in a smooth arc. Move forward at each sweep the width of the search-head (20cms). Keep the search-head as close to the ground as possible, even at the ends of the arc where there is a natural tendency for the search-head to lift. Maintain a strict search pattern so that the area being searched is completely covered. (You will be more successful if you cover a small area of ground thoroughly than if you search a large area of ground in random fashion. When you encounter a signal, localise the exact target position by reducing the width of the scanning arc to just a few centimetres either side of the signal. [. . . ] The search-head may be immersed in water. Stem and search-head parts should be washed with tap water and dried at the end of a day's detecting. warranty & Service The CS1MX is guaranteed free of manufacturing defects as confirmed in our written warranty document.
