PREPARATION

ASSEMBLING THE DETECTOR

Assembling the detector is easy and requires no special tools. Just
follow these steps.

1. Unscrew the knobs on the search coil and remove the knobs and
the connector. Insert the smaller stem and align the holes on the

search coil bracket and the stem. Push the connector through the
holes, then replace and tighten the knobs.

2. Loosen the stem’s lock nut in the direction of the arrow. Then
insert the smaller stem into the big stem connected with the
handle. Turn the stem’s lock nut in the reverse direction of the
arrow to lock it in place.

3. Insert the latch at the bottom of the control box into the assembly

hole on the S shaft.

4. Tighten the fixing knob properly.

5. Insert the search coil cable plug into the five pin jack on the back

of the control housing.

6. Lengthen or shorten the stem, so when you stand upright with

the detector in your hand, the search coil is level with and about
