The pole length should be adjusted so that the detector does not
become uncomfortable or tiring after long periods of use. The detector
grip should rest in your hand with your arm relaxed, your elbow straight
but not locked, with the pole extending out in front of you at the approx-
imate angle shown in the
photo.
You should be able to
swing the detector back and
forth in front of you—using
relaxed
shoulder movement
—
while keeping the searchcoil as
close to the ground as possible.
This swinging movement is
often called a "sweep."
The searchcoil should not
touch the ground during your
sweep. The pole length should
be adjusted to allow this with-
out having to lift the detector
with your elbow or shoulder.
The searchcoil should rest
about one inch above the
ground while you are standing
erect. The angle of the search-
coil should allow the bottom to
be parallel to the ground.
The pole length is adjusted
by loosening the pole lock,
then depressing the spring but-
tons and extending or shortening the pole until the spring buttons click
into the set of holes that give you the most comfortable pole length.
To adjust the searchcoil angle, simply loosen the searchcoil thumb nut
slightly and move the searchcoil into the desired position. Tighten the
searchcoil thumb nut by hand so that the searchcoil will hold in place.
