ASSEMBLING YOUR DETECTOR 

1.

 

On the lower pole assembly, remove the mounting screw and thumb nut from the pole 
tip. 

2.

 

Insert the pole tip between the mounting ears of the searchcoil and align the holes of the 
pole tip and washers with those of the mounting ears. 

Note: The pole tip should fit very snugly into the mounting ears.
