H. DETECTING

1. Find a clear area in your backyard, at the beach or a similar place. Always take an adult with you for safety. Extend and

adjust your metal detector's shaft to a suitable length as described above. Turn the metal detector on. Hold the metal

detector with the coil about 2 to 5 cm above the ground.

2. Swing the search coil from side to side in a regular motion, at a rate of 1 to 2 seconds per swing. Overlap the swing paths

to ensure you are not missing any area of the ground.

3. When a metal object is detected, the metal detector's meter symbol on the LCD screen will flash and there will be a

beeping sound too.

Continue sweeping the coil over the target area in a narrowing side-to-side pattern to find the precise location of the object.

This is called pinpointing. Congratulations. You have discovered your first buried "treasure"!

What might you find?

1. Jewelry such as earrings, necklaces, hair pins, and bracelets. Most pieces of jewelry have metal part so they can be

detected. You might find the stones or gems in the jewelry intact, making an exciting find.

2. Old and modern coins. It's very exciting to find a very old coin in the ground.

3. Glass bottles with metal caps may lead you to antique bottles and other treasures.

4. Buttons and buckles. These are normally from old clothes that have rotted away. They are normally old and can be quite

valuable.

I. HOW DOES METAL DETECTOR WORK

A metal detector works using electromagnetism, which is a combination of electricity and magnetism. Inside the search coil

there is a long wire coiled into circles. When the detector is switched on, an electric current flows through the coil. An

electric current always creates a magnetic field, so there is a magnetic field around the coil. As you sweep the coil from side

to side the magnetic field passes through any metal in the ground. This creates an electric current in the metal, which in turn

creates a magnetic field around the metal. The detector senses this magnetic field and makes a noise to alert you that it has

detected the metal.

J. FUN FACTS

· The first metal detectors were invented in the 1880s.

· The effect that a magnetic field can cause a current in metal is called electromagnet induction. It's used in generators to

produce electricity.

· Complex metal detectors can tell the difference between different metals such as iron, gold and lead.

· Specialised metal detectors, including archways and hand-held wands are used at airports, buildings, and events to check

that people are not carrying hidden metal objects.

· If food factories metal detectors check for bits of metal in the food that might have broken off factory machinery.

· In 2009, a metal-detecting hobbyist called Terry Herbert unearthed a treasure hoard of 4,600 pieces of gold, silver and

jewelry in Staffordshire, UK. The hoard, buried in the 7th century, was worth more than 4 million US dollars.

A. SAFETY MESSAGES

1. Please read through all the instructions and keep them since they contain important information.

2. Adult supervision and assistance are required at all times.

3. This kit is intended for children 8 years or older.

4. This kit and its finished product contain small parts which may cause choking if misused. Keep away from children under

3 years old.

5. To prevent possible short circuits, never touch the contacts inside the battery case with any metal.

6. Only install batteries after the kit is assembled. Adult supervision is required.

7. Do not lean on the detector to support your body. It is not designed for this purpose.

8. The metal detector search coil is splash proof. However, do not submerge it in water as it is not designed for underwater

use.

B. USE OF BATTERY:

1. Requires one 9V 6F22/6LR61 battery (not included).

2. For best results, always use fresh batteries.

3. Make sure you insert the batteries with the correct polarities.

4. Remove the batteries from the kit when not in use.

5. Replace exhausted batteries straight away to avoid possible damage to the kit.

6. Rechargeable batteries must be removed from the kit before recharging.

7. Rechargeable batteries must be recharged under adult supervision.

8. Make sure that the supply terminals in the battery case are not short circuited.

9. Do not attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries.

C. RULES TO OBSERVE

1. Safety first:

· Always take an adult with you when metal detecting.

· Be careful of ditches and streams when detecting in woodlands.

· Be aware of the tide when metal detecting at beaches.

2. Obey local laws and respect other people's property:

· Make sure you don't break any laws in your country. Using a metal detector is against the law in most parks and historic

sites. There may be other local laws that tell you where you can and can't use a metal detector.

· Don't trespass. Always ask for permission from property owners before you do any detecting on their property.

· If you think something you find might be valuable or historically important you should tell your local authorities. You might

receive a reward.

· You might need a license from your local authority to go metal detecting in some places.

3. Look after the environment:

· When you find a metal object you may have to dig a small hole to retrieve it. Keep such holes as small as possible and fill

them in neatly when you are finished.

· It's generally wise to take an extra bag along for any trash you dig up. And it is good practice to remove and properly

discard this instead of just burying it again.
