**BOUNTY HUNTER TK4 Tracker IV Metal Detector Owner’s Manual

**

INTRODUCTION

The Tracker IV is a user-friendly instrument, requiring only a minimum of
operator skill, yet delivering effective performance over a wide range of
conditions and applications.

Streamlined in appearance,  with only two operating knobs and a mode selection
switch, the Tracker IV has eliminated the two most difficult aspects of metal
detector operation, Tuning and Ground Balancing. Both of these functions are
automatic with the Tracker IV.

The Tracker IV will detect in extreme ground conditions, ranging from salt
(for beach hunting) to black sand (for gold prospecting), with no operator
adjustments to the circuitry and with no loss of sensitivity.

From salt water beach conditions to black sand deposits common at gold
prospecting locations, the Tracker IV sees through the earth’s naturally
occurring minerals to find buried metals

EASY ASSEMBLY

Assembling your Tracker IV Metal Detector is easy and requires no tools.
Just follow these steps:

1. Using the supplied bolt and knurled knob, attach the searchcoi to the lower stem.

2. Press the button on the upper end of the lower stem and slide   the lower stem into the upper  stems.

   

   Картинка с сайта: manualspro.net

   Adjust the stem to a length that lets you maintain a comfortable upright
   posture ,with your arm relaxed at your side.

3. Wind the searchcoi cable around  the stem. Leave enough slack in the cable to let you adjust the coil  when you are hunting on uneven ground. Then tighten the knob at  the end of the searchcoi . Note : To adjust the coil, simply loosen the knob.

4. Insert the coil’s plug into the matching connector on the control  housing. Be sure the holes and pins line up correctly.

Caution:

• Do not force the plug in. Excess force will cause damage.
• To disconnect the cable, pull out the plug. Do not pull on the cable.

BATTERIES

IMPORTANT:

Always use ALKALINE batteries for optimal performance. Always remove the
batteries for prolonged storage.

CHECK THE BATTERIES

if your detector exhibits any of the following symptoms:

1. The unit does not turn on.
2. Low speaker volume.
3. Unit beeps continuously at low sensitivity setting. The Low Battery indicator light will come on and stay on if the batteries are discharged. It should flash momentarily when the Power Switch is turned off.

IMPORTANT : Your Tracker IV metal detector requires two 9-Volt ALKALINE
batteries.

Follow these steps to install the batteries.

• Carefully remove the battery compartment door by pressing the release clip on the right side of the door.
• Snap one battery onto each of the terminals and place the batteries inside the compartment. Insert batteries with the terminals facing inward.
• Replace the compartment door by carefully inserting opposite side of clip first. Then press down on clip side until battery door snaps into place.

DO NOT MIX OLAND NEW BATTERIES

OPERATION

The Tracker IV is a “motion” detector. This means that the searchcoi must be
moving to detect the presence of metal. When practicing with a stationary
metal detector, keep the target moving over the coil. Objects held still under
the searchcoi will not be detected.

THREE MODES OF OPERATION

The Tracker IV allows for three modes of operation:

ALL METAL, TONE AND FULL DISCRIMINATE

After turning the unit on, and adjusting your Sensitivity to the desired
setting, you’re now ready to decide on your mode of operation.

ALL METAL: (Toggle Switch in the Middle) In this mode, all different
types of metal will be detected such as: iron, steel, aluminum, brass, silver,
copper and gold. Applications: Relic Hunting, Gold Prospecting, Cache Hunting
and general applications such as property marker locating. This mode provides
maximum depth detection capability.

FULL DISCRIMINATE: (Toggle Switch to the Left) When using the Full
Discriminator, most trash items will be automatically rejected.  Adjust the
DISCRIMINATE control higher to increase the range of discrimination.

TONE DISCRIMINATE: (Toggle Switch to the Right) When using the Tone
Discriminator, a unique dual tone “beep” and automatic iron rejection makes
finding treasure fun and easy. It’s also possible to achieve a broken tone for
certain pull-tabs by adjusting your Discriminate control to the approximate
center position (12:00). With the two-tone discrimination, along with a broken
tone for pull-tabs, you will be able to identify types of buried metals
according to the audio tones emitted. Applications: Coins hooting, Jewelry
Hunting and detecting in highly trashed areas.

TONE DISCRIMINATION

continued)(Toggle switch to the Right) Classifies detected metal objects by
emitting a low or high tone.

Картинка с сайта: manualspro.net

Adjust the DISCRIMINATE control higher to increase the range of the low tone.

It is possible to set the DISCRIMINATE level so that nickels have a low tone,
larger coins have a high tone, and pull-tabs have a low tone or in-between
“broken” tone. The “broken” tone makes pull-tabs and trash easily
recognizable.

Sensitivity will be reduced slightly when using the Tracker IV in the Tone
Discrimination mode.

Картинка с сайта: manualspro.net

If you want optimal depth capability, operate in the All Metal mode by turning
the Discriminate control  completely counterclockwise; then turn the
Sensitivity control clockwise to its highest clockwise position without
chatter.

If your Tracker IV chatters or beeps erratically, reduce the Sensitivity by
turning the left knob counterclockwise.

AUTO GROUND CONTROL:

The Tracker IV automatic Ground Track feature allows operation in virtually
all soil conditions, regardless of mineral content. Use it effectively on the
beach or for gold prospecting. In the ALL METAL Mode (Toggle switch in the
middle), the Tracker IV will detect gold nuggets through black sand and will
find deeply buried relics in all types of soil.

OPERATING TIPS:

Turn the detector on using the left knob. NOTE: The detector will remain
silent when turned on. It will emit sound when metal passes beneath the
searchcoil.

As the left knob is clicked on, it will be at the lowest sensitivity’s
setting. Turning the control knob toward “HIGH” increases  sensitivity to
small or deeply buried objects. If the unit “chatters”, reduce the sensitivity
slightly, until the chatter stops.

Картинка с сайта: manualspro.net

For maximum performance, operate ith the sensitives high as possible. The
sensitivity can generally be set higher when operating in Full Discriminate
(DISC) or Tone Discriminate (TONE) modes.

IN THE FIELD

STANCE

Stand with your arm extended in front of your body. Don’t bend or stoop; stand
in a comfortable position. Hold the unit so that the searchcoi is about
1/2-inch above the ground. Adjust the searchcoi so that it is parallel to the
ground.

Картинка с сайта: manualspro.net

SWEEP

Standing in the search position, swing the searchcoi gently from side to side,
slightly overlapping each sweep as you move forward. Keep your searchcoi
approximately 1/2-inch above the ground as you search. Raising it during the
sweep , or at the ends of your sweep, can cause false readings. Move slowly;
hurrying will cause you to miss targets.

Most desirable objects will respond with a repeatable tone. When
discriminating, iron and foil objects generally do not respond. False signals
can be caused by trashy ground, electrical interference, or by large irregular
trash objects. These signals are easily recognized by their often broken or
non-repeatable nature

IN THE FIELD

PINPOINTING

Accurate pinpointing takes practice and is best accomplished by “X-ink” the
suspected target area.

1. Once a buried target is identified by a good tone response, continue sweeping the coil over the target in a narrowing side to side pattern.
2. Take visual note of the place on the ground where the “beep” occurs as you move the coil slowly from side to side.
3. Stop the coil directly over this spot on the ground.
4. Now move the coil straight forward and straight back towards you a couple of times.
5. Again make visual note of the spot on the ground at which the “beep” occurs.
6. If needed, “X” the target at different angles to “zero in” on the exact spot on the ground at which the “beep” occurs.

REMEMBER : The detector will beep just as the center of the searchcoi
passes directly over the buried object.

If you have difficulty pinpointing very strong signals, try lifting the coil
higher off the ground until a weaker, but more concise, signal is heard. For
very weak signals, try moving the coil in short quick sweeps, closer to the
ground.

TROUBLESHOOTING

The following troubleshooting steps may assist you in case you’re
having problems with your Tracker IV.

YOUR DETECTOR IS EMITTING ERRATIC SIGNALS WHEN YOU’RE IN THE FIELD.

Картинка с сайта: manualspro.net

Your SENSITIVITY may be set too high. Try reducing the SENSITIVITY
slightly until the false signaling disappears. Remember to swing your coil
slowly. Some inconsistent signals will occur on highly rusted metals. If the
signal does not repeat after successive passes of the coil over the same area,
then the target is usually not worthwhile. Natural and man-made
electromagnetic fields can cause interference.

YOUR DETECTOR IS NOT STABLE AND HAS A PULSING, DISTORTED TONE INSTEAD OF A
CLEAR TONE.

This can occur if you’re operating near another detector or near power lines
that can interfere with the detector’s operating frequency.

YOUR DETECTOR IS EMITTING A CONSTANT LOUD TONE OR CONSTANT REPEATING
TONES

This usually occurs when the batteries are low. Try replacing your batteries
with two new alkaline batteries.

NOTE : Always use Alkaline Batteries for proper performance.

METAL DETECTING APPLICATIONS

COINSHOOTING

The most popular application for metal detectors

CONTROL SETTINGS REQUIRED:

1. Toggle switch to the left (disc. mode).
2. Discriminate knob at 3:00 (3/4 turn).
   Only silver, copper and brass will be detected. Gold items will be eliminated.
   Different denominations of coins will induce different sounds.

RELIC HUNTING

A relic is a historical object, sometimes of great value. The most effective
method for locating relics is to first conduct historical research. Visit your
local library to learn of historical events having occurred in your area. You
can then target your search to a specific area and gain valuable insight into
your local history.

CONTROL SETTINGS REQUIRED:

• Toggle switch in center position.
• Discriminate knob is in OFF position.

CACHE HUNTING

A cache, pronounced “cash”, is a buried or hidden valuable stored inside a
case, can, strong box, or a bag. A cache could be the loot from a bank robbery
or just someone’s life savings. A cache is often hidden in the floor or walls
of an old house, or is buried nearby. Also search old camp sites.

CONTROL SETTINGS REQUIRED:

• Toggle switch in center position.
• Discriminate knob is in OFF position.

JEWELRY HUNTING

Jewelry can be found wherever people congregate. Beaches, parks, school yards
and fair grounds are all littered with lost jewelry.

CONTROL SETTINGS REQUIRED:

• * Toggle switch in RIGHT position (tone mode).

  • Discriminate knob at half way, 12:00 position.

You should dig only the lower and high tones. Broken tones indicate

METAL DETECTNG APPLICATIONS

trash items. Gold rings will induce a low sound. Be aware that some pull-tabs
can also induce a low tone.
Silver will induce a high tone. Chains and necklaces are difficult to find. If
you are looking for gold rings, don’t get discouraged; you will dig up many
broken pull-tabs before you find your first gold ring!

HOUSEHOLD APPLICATIONS

Find property markers, lost keys, machine parts, and other lost items..

CONTROL SETTINGS REQUIRED:

• Toggle switch in center position.
• Discriminate control knob is in OFF position.

GOLD PROSPECTING

Find gold in abandoned gold mines and river beds where gold is continuously
washed down stream from its place of origin.

CONTROL SETTINGS REQUIRED:

• Toggle switch in center position.
• Discriminate control knob is in OFF position.

USING HEADPHONES

Using headphones (not included) improves battery life, and prevents the sounds
from annoying bystanders.

It also allows you to hear subtle changes in the sound more clearly,
particularly if searching in a noisy location. For safety reasons, do not use
headphones near traffic or where other dangers are present. This device is to
be used with interconnecting cables/headphone cables shorter than three meters

TREASURE HUNTER’S CODE OF ETHICS:

• Always check Federal, State, County and local laws before searching.
  Respect private property and do not enter private property without the owner’s
  permission.

• Take care to refill all holes and leave no damage.

• Remove and dispose of any and all trash and litter found.

• Appreciate and protect our inheritance of natural resources, wildlife and private property.

• Act as an ambassador for the hobby, use thoughtfulness, consideration and courtesy at all times.

• Never destroy historical or archaeological treasures.

• All treasure hunters may be judged by the example you set; always conduct yourself with courtesy and consideration of others
