Polesine, are you comfortable with electronics? Soldering? Know how to drive an oscilloscope? Most likely your M6 has an internal problem and it's going to take some digging in to find it. I assume you can't easily send it in for repair, because that's the best option. Otherwise, I would start with a detailed visual inspection, looking for a bad part or bad solder joint.

Most likely the problem, is the sensitivity potentiometer. You must replace this potentiometer. I repair many metal detectors all brands and I have encountered this problem several times in the M6.
I hope that works for my help.
