Assembly; Metal Detecting Applications - Bounty Hunter SharpShooter II Owner's Manual

ASSEMBLY

Adjusting the Armrest
The armrest may be moved
forward or backwards by
removing the single screw and
nut, and then repositioning the
2-piece armrest. Users with
shorter arms may find the
armrest more comfortable in the
forward position. In order to
move the armrest backwards,
the plastic plug must be
removed from the aluminum
tube.
Armrest Strap (not included)
Some users prefer to use a strap
when swinging the detector
vigorously, in order to hold the
detector secure against the arm.
The strap may be purchased as
an optional accessory.
The detector can also be used
without the strap with no
compromise to detector balance
and stability under most
conditions.

METAL DETECTING APPLICATIONS

COINSHOOTING:
The most popular metal detecting application is coinshooting. When
coinshooting, you want to discriminate out pull tabs, screw caps, and iron
objects. Beware that highly oxidized steel may also be detected.
Control settings required.
1.) Press DISC touch pad.
2.) Turn the Discrimination Knob to the 3:00 position.
RELIC HUNTING:
A relic is a historical object, sometimes of great value. Relics can be found
in abandoned homes, plowed fields or even your own backyard. Research
the local library to learn of historical events or places in the area. You can
then target your search to a specific area and gain valuable insight into your
local history.
Control settings required.
1.) Press ALL METAL touchpad.
2.) Turn the DISCRIMINATION knob 100% counterclockwise.
Many relics are iron, so you do not want to discriminate.
Or use No-Motion All Metal Mode.
CACHE HUNTING:
A cache, pronounced "cash" is a buried or hidden valuable stored inside a
case, strong box, or bag. A cache can be hidden in the floor or walls of a
house, or buried nearby. Operate in the ALL METAL Mode.
Control settings required.
1.) Press ALL METAL touchpad.
2.) Turn the DISCRIMINATION knob 100% counterclockwise.
Or use No-Motion All Metal Mode.
JEWELRY HUNTING:
Jewelry can be found wherever people congregate. Beaches, parks, school
yards and fair grounds are all littered with lost jewelry. Your greatest
challenge is the interference from pull tabs and cans. You must use a
discrimination mode: AUTO NOTCH is best.
Control settings required.
1.) Press the AUTO NOTCH touchpad.
2.) Set Discrimination knob at 2:00. Dig only the repeatable low and
high tones, avoid the broken or non-repeatable tones.
OTHER APPLICATIONS:
Use your Sharp Shooter II to find property markers, machine parts, and
lost keys. Keep your detector in ALL METAL Mode for these tasks.
Gold prospecting also requires an ALL METAL Mode.
