Treasure Cove Vibra-Probe 585 User manual

Thank you for choosing the Vibra-Probe 585
metal detector made by Treasure Products Inc.,
the originators of the vibrating pinpointer.
The simple to use design and modern electronics
make it easy to locate elusive targets in any
environment including grass, mud, dirt, sand,
black sand, or even in fresh or salt water to a
depth of 100 feet (30m).
Pinpointer Metal Detector
Product Features
Communicates with vibration
The Vibra-Probe signals with pulses of vibration
when a target is located.
Pulse Induction Technology (PI)
For superior hunting in salt water and black sand.
Detection depth stability
Advanced electronic circuitry maintains detection
distance throughout the life of the battery.
Target direction
The Vibra-Probe detects at the tip only, not along
the shaft, enabling precision target pinpointing.
Target distancing
As you get closer to the target the pulses of
vibration will increase in quantity.
Automatic tuning
Microprocessor design requires no adjustments.
Waterproof to 100 ft (30m)
Sealed design is submersible to a depth of 100 ft.
Battery Installation
Battery Compartment Seal
This detector uses an expansion plug to seal the
battery compartment. When the knob of the seal
is rotated clockwise, the rubber in the plug
expands and presses against the inside wall of
the battery compartment, sealing the unit.
Opening the Compartment
To open the battery compartment, rotate the knob
of the seal counter-clockwise a few turns to
reduce the expansion, then pull to remove.
Connecting the Battery
Connect a standard 9-volt battery to the battery
clip and insert the battery into the detector, clip
side first.
Sealing the Compartment
To replace the seal, insert it fully into the battery
compartment. Then turn the knob clockwise until
hand tight to assure a water-tight seal.
Before submerging detector make sure
the battery compartment seal is secure.
Powering On & Off
Power on
Point the probe tip up for at least one second. Two
short pulses of vibration indicate the probe is on.
Power off
After use, point tip up for at least one second. Two
long pulses of vibration indicate the probe is off.
Automatic off: The detector will automatically turn
off one minute after last detection pulse. Turn off is
indicated by two long pulses of vibration.
Low battery auto-off
When the battery is low the unit will shut down
automatically indicated by four long pulses.
Detecting a Target
The Vibra-Probe communicates through pulses of
vibration. The pulses of vibration increase in
quantity the closer the probe tip is to the target.
The quantity of pulses is proportional to the target
size and distance. The bigger the target, or the
closer the probe tip is to the target, the higher the
pulse count.
Probe the soil in different locations until you
detect the target. The Vibra-Probe detects targets
at the tip only. This allows you to precisely locate
the target.
The probe communicates its proximity to the
target only one time per detection. Move the
probe tip slightly away and then re-approach the
target to get the next detection.

Important Notes
•The Vibra-Probe is a robust unit. However, it
should not be used as a pry-bar or digging tool.
•Continuing to hold the Probe pointed up after
turn on allows hunting in a vertical position if
desired.
•False detections may occur if the coil of your
primary detector is too close to the Vibra-Probe.
Helpful Hints
•As with any new detector, you should practice
with known targets to develop your searching
technique.
•Use the included holster to carry your Vibra-
Probe on your belt so it’s always at the ready.
•If your primary detector indicates that the target
is near the surface, probe the surface before
digging. To locate deeper targets, loosen the
ground with a suitable digging tool before using
the probe.
•When hunting in a lawn, rather than digging a
large hole, insert a screwdriver or similar tool into
the ground from several angles to push the grass
and roots aside to form a slot large enough to
insert the probe. Then probe the sides of the slot
to locate the target.
Product Care
•Your Vibra-Probe is a sensitive electronic
instrument. Although it is rugged, care in
transporting and handling will extend its life and
result in optimum performance.
•When the Vibra-Probe is off there is no drain on
the battery. However, if stored for long periods of
time, we recommend that the battery be removed
to prevent damage to the detector due to a
potential battery leak.
•If water has entered the battery compartment
carefully wipe dry and leave open until
completely dry.
