SETTING UP Your new 1270 comes ready to assemble and use, but first review the steps below before proceeding. STEP 1.

CAUTION: Never use a pliers or anything other than your hand to tighten either lock nut or wing nut. STEP 7. Disconnect the search-coil cable from the control housing and wrap it around the stem. A loose cable near the search coil may cause false s ...

7 ALL METAL MODE Your 1270 gives you two ways to search in all-metal operation: (1) by set- ting your NORMAL DISC to 0, or (2) by turning on the ALL METAL GROUND ADJUST (rotate knob clockwise). When using the ALL-METAL GROUND ADJUST mode, only the VOLUME and the SENSITIVITY con- trols are still active: you have temporarily disabled the other contro ...

8 IRON DISC MODE metal. This may be tested quickly by pulling the trigger switch and sweep- ing over an area of about one square foot. If no signal is detected, release the trigger switch and raise the search coil off the ground, and lower it back down two or three times (also known as “bobbing”). If an audible sound is heard, turn the GROUND A ...

NORMAL DISC MODE When rejection of a full range of other non-ferrous trash is desired, the NORMAL DISC mode will be necessary. Make sure the ALL METAL GROUND ADJUST is OFF; that is, fully counterclockwise until it “clicks” into the “0” position. The IRON toggle switch must also be OFF. Adjust the NORMAL DISC knob to reject the unwanted “t ...

SEARCH TECHNIQUES Good searching techniques are every bit as important as having a good detector. 1. Adjust your SENSITIVITY control. Only experience will tell you how to set it in every situation. As general rule, turn up the sensitivity to achieve maximum depth and detection of small items. You will also get a wider search scan. Conditions may ar ...

SEARCH TECHNIQUES NO- MOTION PINPOINT 1. When the target “beep” is heard, make an “X” over the target, as de- scribed above, to determine the target area. 2. Move the coil away from the target area, and lower the coil to the ground. 3. Pull, and hold the MODE TRIGGER switch. 4. Raise the coil about 1/2 inch; move back across the target area ...

TARGET RECOVERY Once you have pinpointed a target, your objective is to recover it quickly and neatly, leaving virtually no trace of your excavation. There are many ways do this, and you will soon discover which method works best for you. REMEMBER: Always leave the ground in the same condition as you found it. NEVER leave exposed holes or damage to ...

A “False Signal” occurs when something sounds like a good target, but is not. Your 1270 does a great job of discriminating, but bad “targets” with similar electrical characteristics can fool it. Large pieces of trash or items very close to the search coil will occasionally sound “good”. Experience is the best teacher. As you accumulate ...

Remove the batteries if you’re not going to be using your detector for a while. Batteries can leak, and cause severe damage. 2. Avoid extreme temperatures. When parked in t ...
