To assemble the Pyle PMD38 Metal Detector, start by attaching the search coil to the lower stem. Then, connect the lower stem to the upper stem, adjusting the length as needed. Finally, secure the control box to the upper stem and ensure all connections are tight.
If your metal detector is not turning on, check the battery compartment to ensure the batteries are installed correctly and fully charged. If the device still does not power on, try replacing the batteries with new ones.
To tune the sensitivity settings on the Pyle PMD38, turn on the device and use the sensitivity knob to adjust the level. Start with a medium setting and increase until background noise is minimal or reduced.
Regular maintenance for the Pyle PMD38 includes cleaning the search coil after use, checking and replacing batteries as needed, and storing the device in a dry, cool place when not in use.
The search coil of the Pyle PMD38 is waterproof, allowing for use in shallow water or wet conditions. However, the control box should be kept dry to avoid damage.
To troubleshoot false signals, ensure the search coil is not moving too quickly and that the ground balance is set correctly. Also, check for nearby sources of electromagnetic interference, such as power lines or electronic devices.
Store the Pyle PMD38 in a cool, dry place. Remove the batteries if the device will not be used for an extended period to prevent battery leakage. Keep it in a protective case to avoid physical damage.
To improve depth detection, ensure the sensitivity is set to a high level without causing false signals. Additionally, sweep the detector slowly and evenly across the search area.
To replace the search coil, disconnect the old coil from the lower stem and unscrew it. Attach the new coil by reversing the process. Ensure the coil is securely fastened and the cable is properly connected.
If the detector is not picking up any signals, check the sensitivity and discrimination settings. Ensure the device is powered on and the search coil is properly connected. Try resetting the device or consulting the manual for further guidance.
