FYI-The F-75 manual is available on the Kellyco website...

I'm not singleing you out, but this is for all new users. Now, I know it's VERY hard to hold back from taking a new detector out of the box and trying it out. But, keep in mind this is a serious, sophisticated piece of equipment rather than a "turn on & go" machine. Now that does not mean it's full of hard programming & is overly complicated, just that it's packed full of different features & terms that will be new to many. I actually bring the manual to the site when I first get a new one. Or at least keep it in the car so if I get lost I can go back & read.....
Page 4 of the manual has a "Quick Start" set-up for those who wish to try it out right away....(copied below).

QUICK START
Use your F75 right out of the box

1. Assemble the detector (see instructions beginning page 4).

2 Install four AA alkaline batteries. All positive (button-end) terminals point up.
Batteries are included with the detector.

3. Turn the knob, located under the armrest, fully clockwise.
This turns the machine on and sets audio volume to maximum.

4. When first turned on, the F75 starts out in the Discrimination mode, with:
Sensitivity preset to 60
Discrimination Level preset to 10
Number of Tones preset to 3
Process# preset to dE
Sweep the searchcoil from side to side, parallel to the ground. Keep the searchcoil moving over the ground. If you stop moving the searchcoil, the sound will also stop. Probable target type will be indicated at the top of the LCD screen.

5. If the searchcoil is not in motion and not close to metal, the detector should be silent.

6. If you experience false signals from electrical interference, from the soil itself, or
from lots of trash metal, press the MENU button.
Sensitivity will be highlighted.
Rotate the Settings knob to the left (counterclockwise),
Reduce the sensitivity setting until the false signals go away.
After 7 seconds, the machine will exit the menu and return to normal operation.

7. Toss a coin on the ground and sweep back and forth over it a few times to get a feel for how the machine responds.

8. You are now ready to search.

9. Pull the trigger switch with your index finger to pinpoint the exact location of targets, making them easier to unearth.

When the trigger is pulled, PinPoint is engaged
 
Then I decided I would come home to sit down and read through it. I usually have the manual read a few times before I ever buy anything, but it wasn't available online until today for the F75.
