FACTORY PRE-SET “TURN-ON-AND-GO” MARKS
Your CZ-3D is fairly simple to operate, especially when compared
to other target ID machines. Even so, we strongly recommend 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 finds.
If you can’t wait any longer, and you’re an experienced detector
user, here’s some quick instructions to get you going:
1.
Set all the controls to the red numbered
“Turn-On-And-Go” marks:
GROUND = 5
DISC = 4
SENSITIVITY = 3
MODE = ENHANCE
VOLUME = 5
This puts you in a “coins-only” mode and you’re
ready to start searching. Keep in mind that the
GROUND setting of 5 is probably not the optimum
setting for the ground you’re searching and that’s
why the sensitivity level is set low—to reduce false
signals caused by ground mineralization.
2.
If you’re using headphones, adjust the volume
controls for a comfortable volume when the coil is
passed over a large shallow object.

.
Walk slowly, overlap your sweeps and keep the
search coil moving. Remember you are in a “motion”
search mode and the coil must be moving at least
slightly to detect a target.
4.
When you get a good, repeatable signal, pinpoint
the target by placing the coil on the ground away
from the target, pushing and holding the pinpoint
button and then bringing the coil back over the
target.
5.
Once you’ve pinpointed the target, note the
approximate depth reading on the meter, then
identify it by releasing the pinpoint button and
moving the coil side to side in short strokes over
the target. The meter needle will lock onto the
appropriate target classification.

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 Meter Reading. Replace the batteries when the needle falls
below gray BATT area. Two nine volt transistor batteries are
located in a compartment at the rear of the housing. Always
replace both batteries at the same time. You may also use
rechargeable Nicads but expect about 1/2 the battery life
of an alkaline battery.
1.
Remove the battery door by loosening the two
captive screws.
2.
Tilt the housing slightly and the batteries will slide out.
3.
Install the new batteries. Make sure the contact end
goes in first and that you match the polarity markings
on the battery door.
If either or both of the batteries are installed incorrectly,
the CZ-3D will not turn on. The instrument will not
be damaged.
4.
Finger tighten the screws down snugly. Do not use a
screwdriver or other hand tool.
