attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries, do not puncture or do not throw batteries in fire as
they might explode. Dispose of batteries in accordance with local regulations.

Treasure Hunter’s Code of Ethics
All treasure hunters might be judged by the example you set. Here are a few basic rules you should follow:
Always get permission before searching any site.
Respect the rights and property of others.
Observe all national, state, and local laws while treasure hunting.
Never destroy historical or archaeological treasures. If you are not sure about an object you have found,
contact a museum or historical society in your area.
Leave the land and vegetation as it was. Fill in any holes you dig.
Use your detector only in safe areas.
Dispose of any junk you find, only in approved areas. Do not leave it for the next treasure hunter to find.

Setting up the detector
Refer to the illustrations on page

of this manual.
5.1
Assembling the metal detector
Assembling your detector is easy and requires no special tools. Just follow these steps.
1.
Turn the stem's lock nut clockwise until it loosens
[A]
.
2.
Lengthen or shorten the stem so when you stand upright with the detector in your hand, the search coil is
level with the ground and about 1/2 to 2 inches (1 to 5 cm) above it with your arm relaxed at your side
[B]
.
3.
Turn the stem's lock nut anticlockwise to lock it in place.
4.
Unscrew the knob on the search coil and remove the knobs and connector. Insert the stem and align the
holes on the search coil bracket and the stem. Push the connector through the holes and tighten the knob
[C]
.
5.
Wind the search coil cable around the stem. Leave enough slack in the cable to let you adjust the search
coil when you are hunting on uneven ground
[C]
.
6.
Insert the search coil's plug into the search coil jack on the detector's control housing. Be sure the pins on
the plug align with the holes in the jack
[D]
.
Caution:
• The search coil's plug fits into the connector in only one way. Do not force the plug or you could damage
it.
• To disconnect the search coil's cable from the detector, grasp the plug and pull it out of the connector.
Never tug at the cable.
7.
Loosen the knob at the search coil's end and adjust the search coil to the desired angle. (The search coil
should be parallel with the ground). Tighten the knob just enough to keep the search coil from rotating or
wobbling
[E]
.
Caution:
Do not tighten the search coil too hard or use tools such as pliers to tighten it.
8.
Loosen the knob at the base of the handle, insert the arm support, and tighten the knob
[F]
.
5.2
Installing the batteries
Caution:
Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type.
Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries (standard, alkaline or rechargeable batteries of
different capacities).

VOLUME
(on the control housing) to
OFF
(the control clicks)
[G].
