SEARCH MODES

AUTOTUNE SEARCH MODE

Set the DISC control to Autotune for a very sensitive, wide-scan, all- metal, motion search mode. Since this mode responds to all metal targets and does not have the ability to identify or reject targets, this will probably not be your normal search mode.

The Autotune mode does have some advantages however which make it useful to use in at least two situations:

1.Non-Trashy Areas. Since the Autotune mode has a wider scan than the ID mode, you’re less likely to miss a good target when using it. Search in the Autotune mode until you find a target. Pinpoint the target using the PINPOINT button and then switch the DISC control to “0” to identify it. The DISC control is positioned so that you can switch back and forth between Autotune and “0”.

2.Highly Mineralized Soil or Sand. The Autotune Mode is recommended for black or gray sand beaches or highly mineralized soil. Under these conditions it may be necessary to lower the sensitivity level and sweep several inches off the ground. Gold nuggets are generally found in highly mineralized soil so this will be the search mode of choice for prospectors.

TARGET ID SEARCH MODE

When the DISC control is set in the 0 through 6 position, the CZ-3D has the ability to identify many types of small targets and, depending on the discrimination level, reject or ignore most of them. To better understand just how your CZ-3D responds to different targets, try the following:

1.Scatter some sample targets such as coins, rings, pull tabs, nails and foil on the ground at least 18 inches apart. Include some large targets as well; jar lids, soda cans, etc.

2.Set the DISC control at “0”, SENSITIVITY at “5”, MODE at ‘ENHANCE’, VOLUME at “10”. If you’re wearing headphones, reduce the volume to a comfortable level when you are over a large target.

3.Ground balance the CZ-3D as in the “Ground Balance” procedure.

4.Hold the search coil about two inches above and parallel to the ground and move it slowly back and forth across each sample. Remember, the coil must be in motion to

CZ-3D specifications

The Fisher CZ-3D is a highly respected metal detector renowned for its sensitivity and versatility, particularly among treasure hunters and coin collectors. Fisher Laboratories, with a rich history in the metal detection industry, developed the CZ-3D to cater to more experienced users who seek depth, precision, and advanced features in their detecting devices.

One of the main features of the CZ-3D is its ability to detect both ferrous and non-ferrous metals with exceptional accuracy. This dual function allows users to identify a wider variety of targets, from coins and jewelry to relics and artifacts. The CZ-3D is specifically tuned to recognize the nuanced differences among targets, which significantly improves the detectorist's chances of locating valuable finds while ignoring unwanted trash.

The CZ-3D employs an advanced discrimination system that expertly filters out undesirable metals. This is particularly valuable when hunting in trashy areas where targets can be closely situated. The device features a unique “3D” mode, which aids in evaluating targets before they are unearthed. This mode also allows user to experience a more intuitive understanding of the ground conditions and target depths, enhancing overall efficiency.

Another notable characteristic of the CZ-3D is its exceptional depth performance. It utilizes a dual-frequency technology, operating at both 5 kHz and 15 kHz. This capability enables the detector to achieve greater penetration into the ground, providing the ability to locate deeper targets that many other detectors might miss. This is especially useful in areas with high mineralization where standard detectors may struggle.

Ergonomics also play a crucial role in the design of the CZ-3D. The device features a lightweight construction that ensures comfortable usage over extended periods. The adjustable shaft and user-friendly control layout allow for easy customization to suit individual preferences. Users can conveniently access settings such as sensitivity and discrimination levels, enhancing the overall user experience.

Water-resistant components make the CZ-3D suitable for various hunting environments, allowing operations in wet or humid conditions. This versatility broadens the scope of potential searching locations, from beaches and parks to rivers and fields.

In summary, the Fisher CZ-3D is distinguished by its powerful detection capabilities, advanced discrimination features, dual-frequency technology, and ergonomic design. For serious treasure hunters and coin collectors, the CZ-3D represents a dependable tool that combines innovation with practicality, making it a preferred choice for those aiming to uncover hidden treasures beneath the earth.
