ASSEMBLY

Adjusting the Armrest

The  armrest  may  be  moved

forward  or  backward  by  removing

the single screw and nut, and then

repositioning  the  2-piece  armrest.

Users  with  shorter  arms  may  find

the  armrest  more  comfortable  in

the  forward  position.    In  order  to

move  the  armrest  backward,  the

plastic plug must be removed from

the aluminum tube.

Armrest Strap

(Optional accessory)
The  armrest  Strap  accessory  can

be  purchased  separately.    Some

users prefer to use the strap when

swinging the detector vigorously, in

order to hold the detector securely

against the arm.

The  detector  can  always  be  used

without  the  strap,  with  no

compromise  to  detector  balance

and stability under most conditions.
