#2. Using a sturdy
digging tool, preferably a
trowel or
knife, cut a
horseshoe-
shaped size
plug around
the pin-
pointed
target. Leave an uncut
hinge area to keep the
grass in place.
#1. After locating a good
target (metal),
pinpoint the
center. If your
instrument has
depth reading,
take note of
the depth.
Practice on surface
metals with the loop held
several inches above target.
#4. Use your digging
tool to pry the turf flap up
and hinge it over. Your
pinpointed target
now rests
down-side
up.
#6. A pinpointing probe
can be used to speed the
process of finding the
target in the
flap or in
the hole.
#5. Check for the target
visually, and with your
detector, to see if the
target is in the flap
or remains
in the
hole.
#3. Cut through the
turf, being careful to
cut around the
target and not
damage it.
#9. Replace the turf flap
and step on it firmly.
Once completed very
little indication
of digging
should be
seen.
#8. After recovering the
target, the dirt can then
easily be replaced with a
minimum of spreading.
#7. If additional dirt
needs to be removed from
the hole,place it on a drop
cloth.
It is very important for the future of metal detecting that you use care
in digging - - -
The following “Hinged Door Method” of digging is widely recom-
mended to minimize damage to lawns. Careful recovery in
multiple-use well-groomed areas is the responsibility of all metal-
detector users.
Target Recovery
• Check with your Dealer, Area Club, Local Police, or Parks & Recreations Dept.
• Some areas may have rules on the size and type of digging tools allowed.
• Be aware of the rules, and respect the laws and restrictions in your area.
• Unsightly holes are dangerous to people and livestock, and detrimental
to the continued use of detectors.
