ADJUSTING THE POLE & SEARCHCOIL
The pole length should be adjusted so that the detector does not become uncomfortable or
tiring after long periods of use. The detector grip should rest in your hand with your arm
relaxed, your elbow straight but not locked, with the pole extending out in front of you at the
approximate angle shown in the photo.
You should be able to swing the detector back and forth in front of you—using relaxed
shoulder
movement
—while keeping the searchcoil as close to the ground as possible. This swinging
movement is often called a “sweep.”
The searchcoil should not touch the ground during your sweep. The pole length should be
adjusted to allow this without having to lift the detector with your elbow or shoulder. The
searchcoil should rest about one inch above the ground while you are standing erect. The angle
of the searchcoil should allow the bottom to be parallel to the ground.
The pole length is adjusted by loosening the pole lock, then depressing the spring buttons and
extending or shortening the pole until the spring buttons click into the set of holes that give you
the most comfortable pole length.
To adjust the searchcoil angle, simply loosen the searchcoil thumb nut slightly and move the
searchcoil into the desired position. Tighten the searchcoil thumb nut by hand so that the
searchcoil will hold in place.
