SETTING UP

Your Fisher Coin Strike is built to last for years. However, it's a
sophisticated electronic instrument containing state-of-the-art
components. Handle it carefully, care for it regularly, and it will
give you years of dependable service. The Coin Strike requires
little assembly.

1.

Unpack your Coin Strike carefully and save the

carton: it may come in handy if you ever have to
return the instrument for service.

2.

Slip the lower stem into the middle stem.

3.

Adjust the stem length and coil angle so that the

search coil rests flat on the ground about 6 to 12
inches in front of and slightly to the right of your right
foot (to the left of your left foot for left handers).
Your arm should be straight and relaxed, the grip held
loosely (see drawing on next page). The stem length
is adjusted by loosening the lower lock nut and
allowing the spring clip to snap into one of the
