Assembly
readjust clevis/lower rod length with the sping clip
buttons so that the search coil can be held near the
floor without requiring stooping over.
7. Remove the protective paper from the two black
elbow cup foam pads. Carefully align pads on the
inside of the elbow cup, one on each side of the
center rod, and press firmly into place.
8. Adjust the elbow cup strap so that it is loose
enough for you to slide your arm in and out with-
out loosening each time you want to set the detec-
tor down. The elbow cup strap provides extra
leverage and control. However, some prefer not to
use it.
9. Install battery as described in the next section,
decal facing down, with plastic tab and steel contacts
facing toward inside of battery compartment.
10. It should be noted at this point that the detector
may not work as expected indoors due to the high
degree of metals used in modern construction. It is
best to tune and practice out-of-doors to ensure
stable, predictable results. Additionally, freshly-
buried targets will not produce the normal depth
and discrimination results of targets that have been
naturally lost and settled in the ground. Due to the
abnormality caused by digging a hole in the ground
matrix, and the sophistication of the ground rejec-
tion circuitry, it may take a number of years for
freshly-buried targets to respond at true depths and
discrimination accuracy. The best way to deter-
mine true detection depth is in real search condi-
tions.
Assembly Instructions
1. Remove all parts from shipping carton and
check the assembly page to make sure all parts are
present.
2. There are rubber washers between clevis/lower
rod and loop ears. Use only nonmetallic washers,
fiber bolt, and thumbnut to secure loop/search
coil to clevis/lower rod.
3. Unlock "S" rod camlock and insert clevis/
lower rod into curved "S" rod so that stainless
steel spring clip buttons line up and lock into one
of the adjustment holes in the curved "S" rod.
Turn camlock to secure. The second or third
adjustment holes are suitable for average size
adults. Individuals 6' or taller should use the fully
extended position. Individuals well over 6' tall
should purchase the optional Tall Man Rod.
4. Unravel loop cable and wind the cable around
the clevis and rod assembly, first revolution over
the top of the rod. Wind cable all the way to the
top of the curved "S" rod, about five revolutions.
Use the black cable retainers, one near the loop,
and one near the top of the curved "S" rod, to hold
the loop cable in place.
5. Unlock control box rod camlock and insert
curved "S" rod so that stainless steel spring clip
buttons line up and lock into the rod on top of the
control box. The "S" rod is designed to curve up
toward the display. However, those who prefer to
sweep the loop close to their feet may desire to
assemble the "S" rod to curve down toward the
ground. Turn camlock to secure. Plug loop con-
nector into control box, screw lock ring to secure.
6. Grip the instrument by the handle, with your arm in
the elbow cup with strap secure, and sweep the loop/
search coil over the floor. If the instrument fit feels
uncomfortable, adjust the elbow cup by removing
and repositioning the bolt/thumbnut and installing
in one of the optional positions. If necessary,
