Parts of the Metal Detector
Assembling the Detector
Assembling your detector is easy and requires no special tools. Just follow these
steps as below:
1. Unscrew the knobs (1) on the search coil (2) and remove the knobs and the
connector. Insert the lower stem (3) and align the holes on the search coil bracket
and the stem. Push the connector through the holes, and then place and tighten
the knobs.
2. Loosen the top stem’s locknut (4) in the direction of the arrow (clockwise). Then,
insert the lower stem (3) into the top stem (4) connected with the handle. Turn the
stem’s locknut in the reverse direction of the arrow (counter-clockwise) to tighten it
in place.
3. Fix the control box (5) on the top stem (4) and tighten the screws properly
(shown as below).
4. Wind the search coil cable (6) around the stem and insert its plug into the five pin
jack under the control box (5).
*Caution:
• The search coil’s plug fits into the jack only one way. Don’t forces the plug or you
could damage it.
• Don’t pull the cable if you want to pull out the plug from the jack.
5. In order to adjust the length of stem for comfortable use, turn the top stem’s
locknut (4) clockwise to loosen it. Stand and stretch your arm, holding the detector
to make the search coil above the ground for about .5-2 inches/ 1-5 cm. Then,
rotate the stem’s lock nut counter-clockwise to tighten it.
*Caution: Don’t over tighten the lock nut.
Installing the Batteries
1. Check the power switch on the front panel to make sure it is in the “OFF” position.
2. Slide the battery cover off in the direction of the arrow.
3. Place two 9V batteries into the battery compartment matching the polarity symbols
(+ and -) marked inside and reinstall the battery cover.
Caution:
• Use only fresh battery of the required size and recommended type.
• Always remove old or weak battery; battery can leak chemicals that can destroy
electronic parts.
• If you do not plan to use the detector for a week or more, remove the battery.
• Dispose of old battery promptly and properly.
