Only the length of the stem and the angle of the search coil have to be adjusted.
Adjusting the Length of the Stem

the ground.
3. Tighten the nut by turning counterclockwise.

5. Operation
The CS50 Treasure Hunter enables you to hunt for coins, jewellery, gold and silver. The LED indicator on
the handle will light when a metal object is detected and the buzzer will be activated.
Hold the CS50 in a comfortable position with the search coil parallel to a surface free of metal objects.
Put the adjustable "ON/OFF" sensitivity switch (on the handle) in the position where the LED indicator
lights up slightly and the buzzer produces the faintest of beeping sounds. This is the "no-metal-detected"
threshold position in which the CS50 is at its most sensitive. Rotate the dial even further to enter the
"metal-detected" state.
Use the "maximum sensitivity point" to perform a test on a metal object. The buzzer will beep at max.
volume and the LED will light at max. intensity. These elements indicate that a metal object has been
detected.
Place the sensitivity switch exactly between the "no metal detected"-state and the "metal detected"-
state. Familiarize yourself with the sensitivity of the device by repeating the test with objects of different
sizes made of various metals, such as copper, iron and aluminium.
Note: The max. sensitivity position will be influenced by environmental factors.
6. Tips for Treasure Hunters

Always install the max. sensitivity position when using the device.

Sweep the metal detector from side to side while maintaining a constant distance between the search
coil and the ground. Do not swing the detector like a pendulum.

Take your time. You may miss a target if you walk too fast.
