- Page 2 (ferrous and nonferrous) objects during treasure recovery. The PRO-POINTER is intended for use in conjunction with a ground search metal detector to aid in the recovery of metallic targets. The Garrett PRO-POINTER has both audible and vibrating alarms to indicate the presence of metal objects. The alarms increase in intensity as the PRO-POINTER is moved closer to the metal target. With a pinpointing tip plus...
- Page 3 Microprocessor circuitry allows the PRO-POINTER to operate at maximum sensitivity without any need of adjustments. The Garrett PRO-POINTER is ideal for the recovery of small items in a wide variety of hunting conditions, ranging from highly mineralized ground to saltwater- saturated sand. You will find the Garrett PRO-POINTER to be an indispensable tool to: • Speed target recovery; • Accurately find small objects; • Prevent digging large holes; • Identify multiple objects in near proximity; • Search in tight interior areas such as walls and ceilings; • Serve as a utility pinpointer for locating metal pipes, conduit, rebar and control boxes; and...

The PRO-POINTER's vibrator motor also activates when a metallic target has been detected. As the PRO-POINTER is moved in closer proximity to a metallic target, the rate of the pulsing audio and vibrations will increase proportionally. As the PRO- POINTER is moved away from the metallic object, the rate of the pulsing audio and vibrations will decrease. - Page 6 Led Light—The white LED (located next to the Power Switch) will remain illuminated while the unit is on, providing power-on indication and acting as a flashlight when needed. audible Low Battery alert—The battery The PRO-POINTER's LED light helps illuminate targets in low light.

Page 8: Operating Instructions
The white LED Light will illuminate when the PRO- POINTER is on and this light will remain on until the power button is pressed again to switch off the unit. This mini flashlight feature is useful when operating in low light situations. The PRO-POINTER is a non-motion, all-metal detector. This enables you to remain stationary over a target with continuous audio and vibration response. As the PRO-POINTER is moved in closer proximity to a metallic target, the rate of pulsing audio and vibrations increase proportionally—allowing precise pinpointing... - Page 9 You should then use the Garrett PRO-POINTER to precisely locate your metallic target. First, scan over the earth plug or dirt pile to see if your target has already been unearthed in the soil you removed or turned over. If the PRO-POINTER does not signal a target, you should next scan inside the hole, pointing the tip of the PRO-POINTER toward the side walls of the hole. As you move the tip of the PRO- POINTER closer to the target object, the detector's vibrations and audible beeps will steadily increase.
- Page 10 If the target is located at or near the bottom of the hole, the PRO-POINTER's response will steadily increase as it is lowered into the hole, reaching maximum response at the bottom. If the target is located in the hole's side wall, the response will increase and achieve its maximum response prior to reaching the bottom of the hole. The PRO-POINTER...

- Page 12 Side-Scan recovery: One of the key features of the Garrett PRO-POINTER detector is its side-scan detection ability. This feature allows you to quickly search a large area. Hold the PRO-POINTER on its side, flat against the ground and quickly scan back and forth. Once the general location of the target is known, use the tip of the PRO-POINTER to precisely locate the target. In addition, you can use the sifting blade to rake, scrape or flatten the soil while side-scanning. Scan for your target as you scrape the soil with the sifting blade. Garrett Metal Detectors...
- Page 13 Water recoveries: Another key feature of the Garrett PRO-POINTER detector is that it meets IEC 609 IP 66 dust and water-resistancy standards. This allows you to search muddy and wet areas without concern of damaging your PRO-POINTER. The detection portion of the detector may be submerged. It is recommended that the unit not be submerged beyond the speaker vent (just above the power switch), although momentary submergence will not damage the product.
- Page 14 Wall Searches: The PRO-POINTER's static mode makes it an excellent utility locator to find metal studs and pipes in walls or nails in the drywall. Use the side-scan technique to quickly cover large areas and use the pinpointing tip to precisely locate the target. (Left) For wall scanning with a PRO-POINTER, use the side-scan technique to quickly cover large areas. (Below) To precisely locate a metal target, use the PRO- POINTER's pinpointing tip. Garrett Metal Detectors...
- Page 15 Pinpointing Large Objects: When locating large metal objects—whether in the ground or in a wall—you can improve the pinpointing capability by "detuning" the PRO-POINTER in order to narrow the detection field, as follows. Slowly scan towards the object until the detector's response increases to the full/constant alarm. Then, without moving the detector, switch the power off and then back on again in order to cancel out the target and narrow the detection field. Now continue scanning...

9V battery and hand-tighten the battery cover. The battery compartment is keyed to only accept battery contact in the proper position. If a 9V battery is improperly installed, no circuitry damage will occur. However, it is important to observe the polarity of the battery and the PRO-POINTER battery compartment to ensure operation. Never force the cover to close. Remove the battery when the PRO-POINTER is to be stored for more than 0 days. Note: Do not affix metallic labels (or any material that might cause the detector to alarm) to the detection area of the PRO-POINTER. Doing so might cause an... -
