The Basics
of Metal Detecting
Your Fast Tracker Metal Detector is a MOTION metal detector; movement over
an object is required in order for the machine to detect an object and emit a tone.
The Fast Tracker has eliminated the two most difficult aspects of detecting -
ground balancing and target tuning. Both of these functions are automatic. With
only two operating knobs, you are on the Fast Track to finding buried treasure!
CAUTION:
FOR OUTDOOR USE ONLY:

FAST DEMONSTRATION Here is a quick way to demonstrate the basic features of your FAST TRACKER. Supplies Needed a. A small nail d. A nickel b. A small piece of foil e. A dime c. A quarter f. A penny Position your Fast Tracker Keep the detector away from metal objects. Have a friend hold the detector while you pass the objects over the search coil. Or, hang the detector over the edge of a chair or table, away from walls, floors and other metal objects. Remove your jewelry and watch (they also cont

OPERATION The Fast Tracker is a MOTION metal detector; the search coil must be in motion over the targeted object in order for the machine to detect the object and emit a tone. Motion is required in order for the detector to automatically GROUND BALANCE. All soil and sand is different, containing varying amounts of naturally occurring minerals. As you sweep the search coil over the ground, your metal detector is constantly READING and AVERAGING the ground’s mineralization, in order to differe

OPERATION Select the MODE OF OPERATION The Fast Tracker has two operating modes, ALL METAL and DISCRIMINATION. ALL METAL To enter the ALL METAL mode, click the right knob (Discriminate) off, 100% counterclockwise. In the full counterclockwise position, you will detect all types of metal. In the ALL METAL mode, your detector will emit only one tone, regardless of the type of metal detected. It will detect low-grade metals like iron (a nail) or aluminum (foil). It will also detect more valuable i

IN THE FIELD TECHNIQUES SWEEP TECHNIQUE Sweep the search coil in a slow, consistent, side-to-side motion. The detector’s circuitry is constantly calculating the ground’s mineralization. A steady, consistent coil speed is required for the detector to make an accurate calculation. Keep the search coil about one inch above the ground. Keep the coil even with the ground. Do not raise the coil at the ends of your sweep. WRONG CORRECT TONE RESPONSE Only dig up targets that induce repeatable tones.

IN THE FIELD TECHNIQUES PINPOINTING Accurate pinpointing takes practice and is best accomplished by “X-ing” the sus- pected target area. 1 Once a buried target is identified by a good tone response, continue sweeping the coil over the target in a narrowing side-to-side pattern. 2 Take visual note of the place on the ground where the “beep” occurs as you move the coil slowly from side to side. 3 Stop the coil directly over this spot on the ground. 4 Now move the coil straight forward and

CARE AND MAINTENANCE Your Fast Tracker Metal Detector is an example of superior design and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help you care for your metal detector so that you can enjoy it for years. Handle the metal detector gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage electronic components. Use and store the metal detector only in normal temperature environments. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices and distort or melt plastic parts. Wipe the metal detect

METAL DETECTING APPLICATIONS COIN SHOOTING Searching for coins is the most popular metal detecting application. We receive testimonials every day from BOUNTY HUNTER users finding very old coins — many times from the 1800’s or earlier — in old school yards, parks, and even their own back yards. To adjust your detector for coin shooting, you want to click on the ALL METAL control knob to about the 1:00 position. Find an older pull tab, and adjust the discrimination control to the point where yo
