ABOUT YOUR DETECTOR

Your 1212-X is more proof from Fisher Research Laboratory that

a good metal detector doesn’t have to be complicated and
expensive. No frills but a lot of performance features that really
count: automatic VLF-ground rejection, automatic tuning,
variable trash rejection, headphone jack, built-in speaker and a
deep-seeking, lightweight, 8 inch, search coil. Best of all, it does
what a metal detector is supposed to do—it ignores ground
minerals and trash as it detects valuable buried targets.

One knob operation.

 Just pick it up, set your trash rejection level

and start searching. No tuning, no meter, no gimmicks.

Performance.

 If you’ve tested other detectors in this price range,

you’re in for a pleasant surprise. In fact you may find that your
1212-X goes deeper and ignores trash better than some detectors
costing much more.

State of the art.

 Engineered by the world’s oldest and proudest

name in metal detectors. Patented, double derivative
electronics provide up to 30 hours of silent, no drift operation on
a single 9 volt transistor battery.

Read this instruction manual from cover to cover and treat

your 1212-X as you would any high quality precision instrument.
Drop us a line if you have any questions, comments, or exciting
1212-X stories. In the meantime . . .

Happy Hunting!
