Garrett Money Hunter

Hi All,

I recently bought a Garrett Money Hunter from a pawn shop, put new batteries (4-9v) in and went to the park playground to have some fun. The small Groundhog coil was the right size for getting around the swings and slide. Of course it found lots of pop tops and can slaw and a little change. Does anybody have a clue where I might find a manual for it or have any experience with this old of a machine? There is a switch for VLF or TR. What's the difference? I will take a few pics and post them later just to give you an idea of what it looks like. Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated, thanks.

How much did you pay if you don't mind me asking.I had a ground hog many years ago .The lower shaft was made of metal and I change it out with PC tubing. I think it made it more sensitive. Most metal detectors today have the head attached to plastic tubing and the head is attached with a nylon screw and nut. Just a thought.
 
Thanks for the link, I printed a copy of the PB Groundhog manual and that looks like the right one. This model was sold in the mid seventies. I paid $40 for the detector. Spent some time with it yesterday afternoon at the county fair grounds to get a little more familiar. What I have noticed the most is the weight, all metal construction, quite a bit heavier than most units built today. It gave the forearm and shoulder a good work out. It won't replace my everyday detector but I will continue to use it and learn about it. Thanks to everyone who replied.
