SETTING UP 

 

ADJUSTING THE SHAFT 

1. Loosen the locknut 
2. Lengthen or shorten the stem so that 
when  you  stand  upright  with  the 
detector in your hand, the search coil is 
level and about 12 mm to 50 mm (½” to 
2”)  above  the  ground  with  your  arm 
relaxed at your side. 
3. Tighten the locknut 

 

 

ADJUSTING THE SEARCH COIL 

Loosen  the  knobs  that  attach  the 
search coil to the shaft, 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. 

 

INSTALLING BATTERIES 

The T330BB requires three PP3-size 9 Volt batteries 
Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries (standard, alkaline, 
or rechargeable), or rechargeable batteries of different capacities. 
1.  If  the  detector  is  on,  turn  VOLUME  (on  the  control  housing)  to  OFF.  (The 
control clicks). 
2. Press on the battery compartment cover and slide the cover off in the direction 
of the arrow. 
3. Insert the batteries into the compartment and connect the clip. 
4. Replace the cover. 

 

Always remove old or discharged batteries; batteries 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 of old batteries promptly and properly. 

You can extend battery life by using headphones, which require less power than 
the built-in speakers. See “Using headphones” on Page 6. 

TESTING THE BATTERIES 

If the detector does not turn on, has weak volume, will not tune properly, or has 
erratic operation, or drifts, test the battery power.
