ASSEMBLY
Adjusting the Arm Rest
The arm rest may be moved forward or
backwards by removing the single
screw and nut, and then repositioning
the 2-piece arm rest. Users with shorter
arms may find the arm rest more
comfortable in the forward position. In
order to move the arm rest backwards,
the plastic plug must be removed from
the aluminum tube.
Arm Rest Strap
The strap is provided for your
convenience. Some users prefer to use
the strap when swing the detector
vigorously, in order to hold the detector
secure against the arm.
The detector can also be used without
the strap, with no compromise to
detector balance and stability under
most conditions.

2-Digit Target Identification
The 2-digit value in the middle of the screen provides a specific
target value to help identify buried targets more accurately. With
practice in the field, you will learn to associate target values with
specific objects. Coins are more likely to yield the same value
with each pass of the coil due to their concentric shape. The
presence of multiple targets will yield multiple tones. Trash
objects are more likely to yield a different number on each pass.
The angle of the coil relative to an object may also influence target
identification. If waving coins over the searchcoil for practice,
wave with the flat side parallel to the searchcoil; this is the
position you will most often find coins buried in the ground.
