Assembly
1. Remove all parts from the shipping carton and check assembly diagram to ensure all parts are present.
2. Install black rubber washers on ber lower rod; attach lower
rod onto search coil ears. Use only the nonmetallic washers,
ber bolt, and ber thumbnut to secure search coil loop to the
lower ber rod, only nger tight (do not use tools).
3. Insert lower rod into upper aluminum “S” rod so that the
spring buttons line up with one of the length adjustment holes in
the “S” rod.
4. Wind the search coil cable around the rods, rst revolution
over the top of the rod, all the way to the control box/display.
Plug the cable into the jack on the backside of the display.
Tighten the retainer ring securely.
5. A Velcro arm cup strap has been provided to add leverage
and control to your sweep. One end of this strap folds out to
form a “T” that locks the strap onto one side of the arm cup
slot. The other end is threaded through the slot on the other
side. With your arm in position, fold the strap over onto the Velcro so that the strap is loose enough to pull your arm in and out
of the arm cup.
6. Grip your Treasuremaster by the handle with your arm in the
elbow cup and sweep the search coil over the oor. If the t
feels uncomfortable, adjust the position of the lower ber rod in
a different adjustment hole on the “S” rod, rewind search coil
cable, and test t again. The ideal position allows you to stand
up straight and sweep the search coil over the ground without
stooping over. The length of the lower rod and the position of
the elbow cup can be quickly adjusted to accommodate different users.
7. Install two “AA” batteries noting the (+) & (-) positions marked
inside the battery compartment. Batteries

Batteries
The TREASUREmaster® and TREASUREpro operate for up to 20
hours (without backlight) using two quality “AA” batteries.
1. Open the battery compartment door by gently pushing up
on the battery tabs on the back of the display and hinge open
the battery compartment door.
2. Insert two “AA” batteries, taking note of the correct (+) and
(-) positions marked inside the compartment; close the door
until it snaps shut.
3. High-quality “AA” alkaline batteries are recommended.
Rechargeable NiCad, Nickel Metal Hydride, or other similar
“AA” substitutions work well. Batteries near or above 2 volts per
cell and higher are not recommended.
4. Battery life will change with battery type, operating temperature, and backlight use. Lowering the volume of the built in
speaker or using headphones greatly extends battery life.
Quick Start
1. Press the power ON button. Upon rst power up, the detector
defaults to Coin and Jewelry mode.
2. Sweep the search coil from side to side, keeping it level and
close to the ground. Overlap each search pass by at least 50%.
3. Once a target is detected, indicated by a consistent beep,
sweep several passes and note the display identication and
target depth.
4. If the target indicates dig worthy, press the Pinpoint button
( /X). The pinpoint spot is on an imaginary line through the
center of the search coil. It is important to determine where this
detection line begins and ends on the coil, and then use that
“heel” and “toe” to determine target center.
5. Sweep the target area slowly in an “x” pattern. The strongest
beep and shallowest depth indicates target center.
6. Practice with a visible object above ground, moving back
and forth over the target. You can learn to precisely pinpoint a
target’s center with this “heel-and-toe” method.
