FACTORY PRE-SET “TURN-ON-AND-GO” MARKS Your CZ-3D is fair ly simple to operat e, especiall y when comp ared to other targe t ID machi nes. Even so, we stron gly recomm end that you read this entire manual. You’ll be able to tune your CZ-3D to your specific needs and conditions. A good understanding what to do and why will lead you to more ?[...]

CAUTION: Make sure that the cable is not pulled tight at the control housing and that you have enough slack at the search coil to adjust it to any angle[...]

5 1. GROUND: Used to electronically cancel the effects of ground mineralization. Proper use of this control will minimize false ground signals and insure that the CZ-3D is operating at its maximum potential in just about any ground condition including wet ocean sand. 2.

7 When your CZ-3D is properly “ground balanced,” it will have only a minimu m respons e to ground mineral ization. Precise adjustment of the ground control is critical. The higher the degree of ground mineralization or sensitivity setting, the more critical it is. Once you adjust it in either the Autotune mode or Target ID mode, you can switch [...]

“BOBBING” THE SEARCH COIL METHOD This method takes a little more practice, but you may find it slightly more accurate with fewer false signals from ground minerals. “PUSHBUTTON” GROUND BALANCE METHOD This will probably be your method of choice in all but the most diffi cult of ground condit ions . It’s fas t, easy and accurate . You can[...]

9 1. Set as in the “Turn-On” procedure, making sure the DISC control is at AUTOTUNE and the SENSITIVITY control is set so you can just barely hear a threshold hum. Hold the search coil parallel to and 6 to 12 inches over the ground and at least three feet away from any metal objects. Do not use the PINPOINT button during any part of this proced[...]

NOT E: Unli ke other metal dete cto rs, the discri min atio n level has little if any effect on the depth capability of the CZ-3D. Note however, that the all-metal, Autotune mode has a wider search pattern and may detect a little deeper. Depth is also determined by the size, shape and conductivity of the target as well as the sensitivity setting of[...]

PINPOINTING PUSHBUTTON PINPOINT MODE Target location is quick and easy using the push-button Pinpoint mode. You do not have to keep the coil moving to get a response in this mode. 1. Once the presence of a target is indicated by the “beep-beep” of your CZ-3D, simply move the coil away from the target area, and with the coil lightly on the groun[...]

TARGET ID AND AUTOTUNE MODES Pinpointing in either of the search modes is difficult and requires practice. but with practice you should be able to get the hang of it. Many CZ-3D operators don’t even bother with the Pinpoint mode unless they want a depth reading. In Target ID or Autotune, simply use the same basic procedure for the Pinpoint mode,[...]

1. Once you’ ve located a target, pinpoint its exa ct location a s in the “Pi npointing” procedure. Sinc e ac cu ra te ID is de pe nd en t on accu ra te pin po in ti ng , it is reco mme nde d that yo u alway s press the PINPO INT but ton ra the r than try to pi npo int yo ur targ et in eith er the Autotune or Target ID mode. 2. Once you’ve [...]

TARGET IDENTIFICATION 7. Set your discrimination at an appropriate level. If there’s very little trash in the area, set it low, say at iro n dis cri min ati on and dig eve ry good sig nal . If ther e is a lot of trash present and you’re mainly interested in coins, set the discrimination level high—you may even want to sacrifice nickels and z[...]

DEPTH READING Your CZ-3D will give you a quick and approximate depth reading of coin-size targets, usually within an inch. 1. Place the search coil lightly on the ground at least twelve inches away from your target area. 2. Press and hold the PINPOINT button. 3. Still pres sing the PINPOI NT button, bring the coil back over the targe t and pinpoint[...]

Once you have ident ified and pinp ointed a target, your objective is to recover it quickly and neatly, leaving virtually no trace of your excavation. There are almost as many ways to do this, as there are treasure hunters. Whatever works for you is good enough as long as you don’t break any laws, damage vegetation, or leave uncovered holes. G e[...]

RECOVERY TOOLS A heavy duty blunt screwdriver, sturdy hunting knife, or garden trowel are commonly used. Made especially for the Hobby of Metal Detecting are several well designed sand scoops, trowels, and digging tools . See your local dealer for more information.

It’s built with high quality materials but there are a few things you should do to keep it in peak operating condition. 1. If you’re not going to be [...]

26 TREASURE HUNTERS’ CODE OF ETHICS LETS PRESERVE OUR TREASURED SPORT! Laws governing the use of metal detectors are becoming more and more common. In many countries, the use of metal detect ors is illegal or severely restricted. Don’t let this happen in your area. ALWAYS get permission to hunt on private property. ALWAYS leave a site cleaner t[...]

BATTERY REPLACEMENT Check your batteries frequently by clicking the SENSITIVITY control counter clockwise into the BATT test position. The condition of the batteries will be indicated in two ways: 1) An Audio Tone. The stronger the better. A loud, high-pitched tone indicates good batteries. A weak, low-pitched tone indicates weak batteries. 2) A Me[...]
