    ® ® Quick Draw Metal Detector. The Quick Draw Pro is the result of nine years of software engineering and features the latest advancements in lightweight design, target accuracy and deep-penetrating detection technology. The Quick Draw Pro can be used with its default turn-on-and-go settings, or it can be programmed to your specific treasure hunting goals and objectives or desired settings.
  • Page 3: Terminology

    TERMINOLOGY The following terms are used throughout the manual, and are standard terminology among detectorists. RELIC A relic is an object of interest by reason of its age or its association with the past. Many relics are made of iron, but can also be made of bronze or precious metals.

    ASSEMBLING THE DETECTOR Hold S-ROD upright. Loosen LOCKING COLLAR on S-ROD; rotate counterclockwise. Insert LOWER STEM into S-ROD with the SILVER BUTTON pointed upward. Rotate the LOWER STEM until the SILVER BUTTON locates and clicks into a hole. LOCKING COLLAR INTERNAL CAM LOCK SILVER BUTTON...
  • Page 6: Batteries (Use Alkaline Batteries)

    BATTERIES The detector requires a single 9-volt ALKALINE battery (battery not included). Do not use ordinary “Zinc Carbon” batteries Do not use “Heavy Duty” batteries. Rechargeable batteries can also be used. If you use rechargeables, we recommend using a “Nickel Metal Hydride” rechargeable battery. The battery compartment is located on the back side of the Control Housing.

    QUICK-START DEMONSTRATION I. Supplies Needed: a Nail (made of iron) a U.S. Quarter (or silver coin) a U.S. Nickel a Gold Ring a U.S. Dime a U.S. Penny, dated after 1982 (post-1982 pennies are made of Zinc) (Most newer non-U.S. coinage also contains mostly Zinc) II.
  • Page 8: The Basics Of Metal Detecting

    THE BASICS OF METAL DETECTING This metal detector is intended for locating buried metal objects. When searching for metals, underground or on the surface, you have the following challenges and objectives: 1. Ignoring signals caused by ground minerals. 2. Ignoring signals caused by metal objects that you do not want to find, like nails.
  • Page 9: How To Work The Controls

    THE BASICS OF METAL DETECTING 5. EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) The searchcoil produces a magnetic field and then detects changes in that magnetic field caused by the presence of metal objects. This magnetic field that the detector creates is also susceptible to the electromagnetic energy produced by other electronic devices.

How to Pinpoint After you have identified a target, press-and-hold to identify the target's...
  • Page 14: Target Identification

    TARGET IDENTIFICATION Target-ID When objects are detected, the detector will emit a sound and a 2-digit Target-ID will appear on the screen. Possible Target-IDs range from 1 to 99. This number represents the electrical conductivity of the target; higher numbers indicate more highly conductive targets.

    USING THE DETECTOR Sweep Method CORRECT Sweep the detector side-to-side over the ground. Keep the searchcoil parallel to the ground as you sweep; do not lift the searchcoil at the ends of your sweeps. WRONG Searchcoil motion is required for target detection (except when using Pinpoint).
