Introduction

Thank you for choosing White’s metal detecting products.

White’s TREASUREmaster® and TREASUREpro are our newest,

lightweight, easy-to-use metal detectors. They are designed

and built with the latest electronics technology, used to locate

metal objects in the ground and provide the user with the infor-

mation to help decide if that object has potential value worth

digging for.

This owner’s manual will provide a good understanding of the

basics. However, there are no substitutes for eld experience.

Practice using your TREASUREmaster® or TREASUREpro and

study this manual further. Before long, you may well be teach-

ing the experts a thing or two.

We’ve been designing, building, and distributing worldwide for

nearly 60 years from our factory in Sweet Home, Oregon, USA.

We put our “Made in America” label on every metal detector

we build!

We wish you all the best in your future adventures with your

Treasuremaster and TREASUREpro metal detector.

Assembly

1. Remove all parts from the shipping carton and check assem-

bly diagram to ensure all parts are present.

2. Install black rubber washers on ber lower rod; attach lower

rod onto search coil ears. Use only the nonmetallic washers,

ber bolt, and ber thumbnut to secure search coil loop to the

lower ber rod, only nger tight (do not use tools).

3. Insert lower rod into upper aluminum “S” rod so that the

spring buttons line up with one of the length adjustment holes in

the “S” rod.

4. Wind the search coil cable around the rods, rst revolution

over the top of the rod, all the way to the control box/display.

Plug the cable into the jack on the backside of the display.

Tighten the retainer ring securely.

5. A Velcro arm cup strap has been provided to add leverage

and control to your sweep. One end of this strap folds out to

form a “T” that locks the strap onto one side of the arm cup

slot. The other end is threaded through the slot on the other

side. With your arm in position, fold the strap over onto the Vel-

cro so that the strap is loose enough to pull your arm in and out

of the arm cup.

6. Grip your Treasuremaster by the handle with your arm in the

elbow cup and sweep the search coil over the oor. If the t

feels uncomfortable, adjust the position of the lower ber rod in

a different adjustment hole on the “S” rod, rewind search coil

cable, and test t again. The ideal position allows you to stand

up straight and sweep the search coil over the ground without

stooping over. The length of the lower rod and the position of

the elbow cup can be quickly adjusted to accommodate dif-

ferent users.

7. Install two “AA” batteries noting the (+) & (-) positions marked

inside the battery compartment. Batteries

Batteries

The TREASUREmaster® and TREASUREpro operate for up to 20

hours (without backlight) using two quality “AA” batteries.

1. Open the battery compartment door by gently pushing up

on the battery tabs on the back of the display and hinge open

the battery compartment door.

2. Insert two “AA” batteries, taking note of the correct (+) and

(-) positions marked inside the compartment; close the door

until it snaps shut.

3. High-quality “AA” alkaline batteries are recommended.

Rechargeable NiCad, Nickel Metal Hydride, or other similar

“AA” substitutions work well. Batteries near or above 2 volts per

cell and higher are not recommended.

4. Battery life will change with battery type, operating tem-

perature, and backlight use. Lowering the volume of the built in

speaker or using headphones greatly extends battery life.

Quick Start

1. Press the power ON button. Upon rst power up, the detector

defaults to Coin and Jewelry mode.

2. Sweep the search coil from side to side, keeping it level and

close to the ground. Overlap each search pass by at least 50%.

3. Once a target is detected, indicated by a consistent beep,

sweep several passes and note the display identication and

target depth.

4. If the target indicates dig worthy, press the Pinpoint button

( /X). The pinpoint spot is on an imaginary line through the

center of the search coil. It is important to determine where this

detection line begins and ends on the coil, and then use that

“heel” and “toe” to determine target center.

5. Sweep the target area slowly in an “x” pattern. The strongest

beep and shallowest depth indicates target center.

6. Practice with a visible object above ground, moving back

and forth over the target. You can learn to precisely pinpoint a

target’s center with this “heel-and-toe” method.

Display & Controls

1. Power: ON/OFF. Quick presses of the button toggle Backlight

on and off (TREASUREpro only).

2. (+)/(-): Selects the level or setting of the particular option

selected using the options controls. During normal search (+)

& (-) adjust Sensitivity.

3. /X: Access Pinpoint Mode. Also used for some menu

sequences.

4. Options: Activates option selections. Up & Down arrows

select among available options.

5. Search and detect metals while in the Options mode with

the advantage that the currently selected option can be

adjusted with the (+) & (-) buttons “on-the-y.” Press Options,

select the option you want to adjust on-the-y, and use the

(+) & (-) buttons to adjust that option during searching.

Sensitivity

Used to increase or decrease responsiveness to targets, ground,

and external electrical noise. By nding the highest setting

that performs in your area, maximum depth can be achieved.

Settings 1–8 are available.

Reduced sensitivity is often needed to search bad ground con-

ditions or high electrical activity areas.

When the ground is highly mineralized (typically high iron),

reduced sensitivity settings often increase detection depth.

Finding the level that provides for smooth, stable operation

and easy target identication is important to maximize perfor-

mance. Few areas will allow maximum sensitivity settings.

1. During normal searching, press the (+) button to increase

sensitivity; press the (-) button to decrease it. The Treasuremas-

ters provide quick and convenient up or down sensitivity during

use without accessing Options. The current sensitivity setting

shows briey where the VDI number normally is displayed.

2. Sensitivity adjustment is not featured in the Options, but only

with the (+) or (-) buttons when not in the Options mode.

Program

A program is a complete selection of options

for specic or targeted metal-detecting.

1. Coin & Jewelry- This is the primary search program used for

general-purpose searching. When searching typical soil for

coins, jewelry, or any other precious metals, and trash metal

rejection is needed, Coin & Jewelry is the best choice. Coin

& Jewelry discriminates against (rejects) ferrous (iron) objects

and light foil. Discrimination can be customized in the Coin &

Jewelry mode; see Discrimination.

2. Beach- The Beach program has features built in to ignore

conductive wet or salty soils. Use Beach anytime you are

searching a salt-water beach. And because many fertilizers

are conductive when wet, heavily fertilized farm elds may also

require the Beach mode if they are wet.

3. All Metal—Use the All Metal program to detect all metal

types, including iron/steel. Finding property markers, clearing

nails from a driveway, locating lost tools, relic-hunting when iron

is of interest are examples of when All Metal would be used. All

Metal is a superior search program compared to locking in the

Pinpoint mode, which has electronic aids to help pinpoint that

are not ideal for general searching. All Metal does have a VCO

audio so target size and strength inuences the audio.

Pinpoint Mode

Once the choice has been made to dig, press the /X button

to accesses the Pinpoint Mode. Pinpoint is different compared

to an All Metal mode in that special features are activated to

aid in target centering. Pinpoint Mode is not recommended for

general searching.

High Trash (TREASUREpro Only)

Some areas (especially public areas) have high concentrations

of trash. To productively search high trash areas requires a high-

er degree of Discrimination (trash rejection). If trash becomes

an issue using one of the other programs, try High Trash.

To select a Program:

1. Press Options and use the Up & Down arrows to highlight

the desired Program on the display.

2. Press (+) / (-) to select the highlighted Program.

Press Option again to return to normal searching.

Restore to Factory Settings

TREASUREmaster® - Power on the detector while holding down

the Options button until “Fd” appears in the VDI area.

TREASUREpro- Navigate to the RESET command in the menu

and press the Pinpoint button.

Discrimination

The Treasuremasters have the ability to accept or reject metal

types based on their conductivity and/or electrical phase.

Target conductivity/phase is indicated on the display VDI scale

(Visual Discrimination Indication) with a VDI reference number.

By learning what targets consistently indicate specic VDI num-

bers, you can be sure to accept or reject the different target

VDI ranges that interest you.

Many types of targets share similar VDI number ranges. For

example gold jewelry of varied sizes/ types shares the same

VDI number range as aluminum of varied sizes/types. Deeper

depths suggest the target being heavier gold; shallow depth

indications suggest the target being lighter-weight aluminum.

However, to nd all the gold jewelry, digging lead, pull tabs

and screw caps is to be expected.

Non-target metals (iron) often produce some beep, different

from an accepted good target. In most cases, iron will produce

a broken or inconsistent tone whereas an accepted good

target produces a more consistent beep. The display can help,

but an inconsistent tone is most likely a rejected target. If you

have trouble recognizing these inconsistent beeps and displays,

nd the sweep speed that enhances the rejection sound to the

point you can recognize it, compared to the sound of a good

target. Accuracy is greatly increased sweeping the center

of the target. Pinpoint (press /X) and “x” the area with the

“heel-and-toe” method from Quick Start (strongest beep and

shallowest depth indicate center), return to Discrimination

(press /X again), then pass the search coil over target center

and note the sound and display indication.

When a metal target doesn’t indicate as expected, peculiari-

ties within that metal’s alloy mix (metal types) are usually to

blame. For example, as steel bottle caps age, the iron dete-

riorates and the better (non-iron) alloys remain and become

prominent. Very old bottle caps are likely to indicate as a

quarter. The longer they are in the ground, the more the iron

dissolves and the stronger/better the non-iron looks to a metal

detector.
