ABOUT YOUR DETECTOR
Your 1225-X was designed to do one thing well: find good, deep
targets in trashy or mineralized soil with a minimal amount of hassle.
Here’s how it does it...
VLF-SLOW MOTION DISCRIMINATION
. In the search mode, your
1225-X will simultaneously ignore minerals and trash as it detects
valuable targets. Unlike earlier motion discriminators, you won’t
have to whip it back and forth but, you will have to keep it moving
at least slightly.
ZERO MOTION PINPOINTING
. A push-button, all metal mode which
requires no motion for fast, precise target location. Also referred
to as “electronic pinpointing.”
AUTOMATIC OPERATION
. There’s no ground adjust control on
your 1225-X. Just turn it on, set two knobs and go. It couldn’t be
simpler.
PULSEGATE UNIPOLAR AUDIO PROCESSING
. Fisher engineering
jargon meaning that you won’t have to listen to a “threshold
tone” for maximum sensitivity. Your 1225-X operates so you can
hear even the faintest signals on small deep targets.
DOUBLE DERIVATIVE MOTION CIRCUITRY
. Provides a target response
as the search coil passes over the target. Earlier motion detectors
responded AFTER the coil passed over the target. Protected by
U.S. Patent 4,514,692.
And of course, there’s more. Like the built in arm rest and
detector stand. And, the drop-in, no-wires battery compartment.
And, most importantly the depth! Your 1225-X goes deep. It all
adds up to one great state of the art metal detector. Treat it as
you would any fine instrument and you’ll be rewarded with years
of service and who knows how many treasures. If you have any
questions, suggestions or interesting 1225-X stories, drop us a line.
In the meantime...
Happy Hunting!

Where To Use Your Metal Detector In The U.S.
National Forest and Federal Lands
—Metal detecting is allowed
only by special permit acquired from the federal government.
Each area has a district office.
Corps of Engineers, Lakes, Shorelines and Lands
—Permission has
been granted only on predisturbed sites, such as beaches and
attached swimming areas. New Corps lakes and lands must be
okayed by the main office of the Army Corps of Engineers. Each
area has a district office.
State Parks and Lands
—Some state parks are open to metal
detecting, but some are not. Always check with the park ranger
before attempting to use your detector.
Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Lands—Some areas are
open for metal detecting, and some are not. Always check with
the district office.
City or County Park Lands
—Most are open to metal detecting
unless notice is given by a sign or city ordinance. When in doubt,
always check with the city’s Parks and Recreation Department.
Public School Grounds
—Most are open to metal detecting
unless notice is given by a sign, city ordinance, law enforcement
official, or school employee. You should always check with the
school office first.
Privately Owned Lands (Private Property)
—Permission required.
And it is always best to have the permission in writing.
Historically Marked Lands or Sites—Metal detecting is not
allowed. Don’t even think about it.
