GOLDEN µMax OPERATOR INSTRUCTION MANUAL
CONGRATULATIONS!
Your new Tesoro Golden µMax metal detector is part of a new series of detectors designed to
provide you with many happy hours of enjoyment in the most rewarding hobby I can think
of—treasure hunting. Ahead of you lie fascinating and exciting experiences as you step into
the past—uncovering artifacts lost by past generations, or as you take pleasure in the great
outdoors with family and friends searching for precious metals. I wish we could share these
experiences with you, and all of us at Tesoro wish you the best of success.
Your Tesoro detector is capable of meeting your needs in a wide range of treasure hunting
situations. As with any other metal detector, familiarity with this instrument is probably the
limiting factor in determining how successful you can be. I recommend that you read this
manual and fully understand how to operate this detector before attempting to use it in the
field. As you become more familiar with your detector through practice, your rate of success
will increase dramatically.
The Golden µMax is a precision electronic instrument that will last for years if properly cared
for. Treat it right and it won’t let you down.
Good Hunting! Jack Gifford
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Golden µMax is designed to help detectorists improve their coin shooting finds. It
combines three systems to help identify targets before they are dug. First is Tesoro's tried and
tested ED120 discrimination. Offering 120° of discrimination range covering a broad
spectrum of unwanted targets. Second is a four tone audio ID. The tones cover 1) iron and
foil, 2) rings, nickels and some pull tabs, 3) most pull tabs and screw caps, 4) pennies, silver
coins and jewelry. A special tone for targets that are causing the machine to saturate is also
included. Third is a Notch Filter discriminate. Notch discriminate will allow you to tune your
Golden µMax to discriminate out most pull tabs while keeping the nickel and gold ring. It is
user adjustable to fit the hunting styles of most detectorists.
The Golden µMax uses a state-of-the-art microprocessor to perform all of these functions and
still keep a weight of less than 2˝ pounds. With a standard 9x8 coil and three piece break
down pole, the Golden µMax is sure to help you meet your detecting goals.
