Maintenance

As you operate and use your Garrett detector, you will quickly grow more proficient in its use. It is recommended that you build your own test plot. Bury several items, including a nail, a piece of foil, a pulltab, a bottlecap and several coins at depths of about two to eight inches and a foot apart. Clearly mark the location where each article is buried. Practice scanning the targets while listening to and studying the detection signals.

Remember that newly buried objects, especially coins, will be somewhat more difficult to detect than items that have been buried for some time. This is primarily a metallurgical phenomenon. Experiment with the various operating modes to see how your detector responds. Practice trying to pinpoint and locate targets precisely.

When scanning, do not hurry. Scan the searchcoil at a speed of about one to two feet per second. Keep the searchcoil flat and level to the ground. Move it back and forth slowly and steadily while you walk at a pace that is comfortable. Be methodical. Do not skip any areas. Wear headphones for greater sound perception and concentrate on your scanning.

After you have operated your Sea Hunter Mark ll for only a short time, you will be surprised at how proficient you have become in its use. Do not expect to achieve the greatest accuracy and success, however, until you have operated the detector for at least 100 hours or more.

Good hunting!

Always remember that your Garrett detector is a sensitive electronic instrument. It is built to withstand rugged treatment in the outdoors, but you should always handle the detector as carefully as possible.

Try to avoid temperature extremes as much as possible, such as storing the detector in an automobile trunk during hot summer months or outdoors in sub-freezing weather.

Keep your detector clean. Always wipe the housing after use, and wash the coil when necessary.

Disassemble the stem and wipe it clean after use in sandy areas.

When storing longer that about one month, remove batteries from the detector.

REPAIR SERVICE

In case of difficulty, read this Owner’s Manual again thoroughly to make certain your detector is not inoperable needlessly. Your dealer may also be able to offer advice.

When your detector must be returned to the factory for service, always include a letter that describes its problem as fully as possible. Before you return your detector to the Garrett factory, make certain:

Pulse induction also minimizes sensitivity to saltwater, providing a stable performance in saltwater environments without excessive false signals.

Another notable characteristic of the Sea Hunter Mark II is its discrimination control feature, which allows users to differentiate between target types. This functionality is particularly beneficial when hunting in trashy areas, as it can help users eliminate unwanted signals from junk metal while focusing on potential treasures.

The device is equipped with a variety of user-friendly controls, including sensitivity adjustments and a visual LED target indicator. These features enhance the overall user experience by providing immediate feedback on the detected targets. The sensitivity control allows for fine-tuning to accommodate different searching environments, ensuring optimal performance.

In terms of design, the Sea Hunter Mark II is lightweight and ergonomically designed, making it comfortable for extended use. It also includes a comfortable armrest and a quick-release system, allowing users to easily adjust the length of the shaft for a customizable fit.

Overall, the Garrett Sea Hunter Mark II metal detector combines advanced pulse induction technology with user-friendly controls and a rugged, waterproof design, making it an excellent choice for those passionate about underwater treasure hunting.
