Assembly

The installation does not require tools, just following the steps below:

1. Turn the stem’s lock nut clockwise until it loosens. 

2. Lengthen or shorten the stem so when you stand upright with the detector in your 

    hand, the search coil is level with and about one half to 2 inches above the ground    

   with your arm relaxed at your side. Then turn the stem’s lock nut counter clockwise 

   to lock it in place.

   Note: Do not loosen the stem lock completely, or the plastic ring inside may fall out. 

   If the inside ring falls out, please put it back and then tighten the lock set.

3. Loosen the knobs at the search coil’s end, then adjust the search coil to the 

    desired angle. (The search coil should be parallel with the ground.) Tighten the 

    knobs just enough to keep the search coil from rotating or wobbling.

Batteries

1. Turn off the detector.

2. Slide the battery cover off in the direction of the arrow.

3. Insert 9v battery into the compartment as indicated by the polarity symbols

    (+ and -) marked inside the compartment, replace the cover.

Cautions:

- Always remove old or weak batteries which can leak chemicals that can destroy 

  electronic parts.

- If you do not plan to use the detector for a week or more, remove the batteries.

- Dispose the old batteries promptly and properly according to State and Federal 

  Guidelines.

- Replace the battery when “LOW BATT” light turns on.

Headphones 

You can connect a pair of stereo headphones (not supplied) to the detector so you 

can listen to it privately. Using headphone also saves battery power and makes it 

easier to identify subtle changes in the sounds you hear, for better detection results. 

To connect headphones to the detector, insert the plug into the headphone jack on 

the side of the control housing. The detector’s internal speaker disconnects when 

you connect the headphone.

Listening Safely

- Do not listen at extremely high volume levels. Extended high volume listening can 

  lead to permanent hearing loss.

- Do not wear earphones while operating your detector near high-traffic areas.  For 

  safety, always be aware of your surrounding.
