Manual
Thank you for purchasing the VK40 metal
detector from VIKING. This is one of a family
of microprocessor driven metal detectors
that are very simple to use yet provide
excellent performance.
Please take time to read this booklet. It will guide
you through each of the available features to
ensure you get the best out of your detector.
Getting Started
1. Unpack The Detector
There are two main sections. The 'S' shaft, onto
which is mounted the control box, and the lower
shaft with the search head. Note the spring
button near the end of the lower shaft.
2.
Assemble The Detector
Slide the lower shaft into the 'S' shaft, wrapping
the cable snugly, but not tightly, round the shaft.
When correctly aligned the spring button on the
lower shaft will click into 1 of the 3 holes on the
underside of the 'S' shaft.
3.
Tighten the coupling
Turn the coupling to the 'lock' position as
indicated by the arrow. This makes a rigid
connection between the two parts of the shaft.
4.
Insert Battery
The detector takes a single PP3 (alkaline) 9V
battery.
This is placed in the battery
compartment on the rear of the control box.
ENSURE THE BATTERY IS INSERTED THE
CORRECT WAY ROUND
Push the drawer back into the detector until it
clicks. Please note the drawer can only be
inserted the one way.
Your detector is now ready for use
To disassemble the detector, loosen the coupling
by turning it against the arrow and push in the
spring button. The lower shaft will now slide out
from the 'S' shaft.
