The intermediate connecting rod is made from duraluminum. At its upper end it is connected
by the large fixing ring to the carrier rod – it fits into it, while at its lower end it is connected to
the lower connecting rod.
The lower connecting rod is made from carbon, so that it does not interfere with the normal
working mode of the metal detector. At its upper end it is connected by the small fixing ring to
the intermediate connecting rod – it fits into it, while at its lower part ends with a plastic
nozzle by which is connected to the search coil.
To not affect the intermediate connecting rod on the work of the metal detector because it is
made from duraluminum, ie metal, it is recommended that the lower connecting rod to be
inserted in the intermediate connecting rod to a situation in which remain at least 20-30
centimeters away from the top of the search coil to the small fixing ring.
The search coil is connected to the plastic nozzle of lower connecting rod via the plastic bolt
and nut. Between the "ears" of the search coil and the plastic nozzle of the lower connecting
rod put emollient and fixed rubber type “washer”, which prevent "ears" of the search coil from
deformation and breakage when tightening. The search coil has a connecting screened cable
ending in a jack that is plugged in the connector that lies on the back panel of the electronic
control module.
If necessary to change the position of the search coil to the lower connecting rod (change the
working angle) is necessary to loose coupling fixing by a plastic bolt and nut and after the new
setting, it can be tight to be fix the search coil in the new position. Changing the working angle
in tight situation can lead to breakage of the "ears" of the search coil, deformation of the
"ears" and the search coil or a fatal frustration of the search coil and changes its parameters.
When changing the working angle of the search coil to the lower connecting rod must be
monitored for the presence of an advance of the bottom of the connecting cable connected to
the search coil to keep it stretched too much as this can cause damage his. Recommended
always to provide a small advance of the connecting cable of the search coil in his lower part,
immediately which he comes out of the search coil.
