ASSEMBLY -
1.
Remove all parts from the shipping carton and check
assembly diagram to ensure all parts are present.
2.
Install black rubber washers on fi ber clevis/lower
rod, insert clevis lower rod onto loop ears. Use only
nonmetallic washers, fi ber bolt, and fi ber thumb nut to
secure loop/search coil to clevis/lower fi ber rod.
3.
Unlock “S” rod cam-lock and insert clevis/lower rod
into curved “S” rod so that stainless steel spring clip
buttons line up and lock into one of the adjustment
holes in the curved “S” rod. Turn the cam-lock to se-
cure. The second or third adjustment holes are suitable
for average sized adults.
4.
Wind the loop cable around the rod assembly, fi rst
revolution over the top of the rod, all the way to the top
of the curved “S” rod, about fi ve revolutions. Use the
black cable retainers, one near the loop, and one near
the top of the curved “S” rod, to hold the loop cable in
place. Plug the cable into the jack on the front of the
control box.
5.
Grip the instrument by the handle, with your
arm in the elbow cup with strap and sweep the
loop/search coil over the fl oor. If the instrument
fi t feels uncomfortable, readjust clevis/lower rod
length with spring clip button and cam-lock so
that the search coil can be held near the fl oor
without stooping over.
6.
Remove the protective paper from the two
black arm cup foam pads. Carefully align pads
on the inside of the elbow cup, one on each side
of the center rod, and press fi rmly into place.
7.
Adjust the elbow cup strap so that it is loose
enough for you to slide our arm in and out
without loosening each time you want to set the
detector down. The elbow cup strap provides ex-
tra leverage and control. However, some prefer
not to use it.
8.
Install the battery pack; *make sure not to put
the batteries in upside down.
