Chapter 1 GM24k Assembly
Assembly Instructions
1. Remove all parts from shipping carton and
check the assembly page to make sure all parts
are present.
2. Unlock “S” rod cam lock and insert the re-
duced end of the center rod into curved “S” rod
so that stainless steel spring clip buttons line up
and lock into the holes in the curved “S” rod.
Turn cam lock to secure.
3. Fit the rubber washers between clevis/lower
rod and search coil ears. Use only non-metal-
lic washers, fiber bolt, and thumb nut, to secure
loop to clevis/lower rod. Then insert into center
rod so that stainless steel spring buttons line up
and lock into one of the adjustment holes in the
center rod. Turn cam lock to secure.
4. Unravel cable and wind the cable around the
clevis and rod assembly, first revolution
should
be OVER the top of the rod with some slack
before applying the cable retainer. This is done
so that the search coil can be paddled backwards
toward the rod without putting a strain on the
cable. Wind cable firmly all the way to the
handle toggle switch . Then plug connector into
control box turn lock ring to secure. To secure
cable, wrap velcro cable retainers around rod
and cable, one near the search coil and one near
the handle.
5. Grip the instrument by the handle, with your
arm in the elbow cup with strap secure, and
sweep the coil over the floor. If the instrument
fit feels uncomfortable, adjust the elbow cup by
removing and repositioning the bolt and install-
ing in one of the optional positions. If neces
-
sary, readjust clevis/lower rod length with the
spring clip buttons so that the search coil can be
held near the floor without requiring stooping
over.
6. Adjust the elbow cup strap so that it is loose
enough for you to slide your arm in and out
with-out loosening each time you want to set the
detector down. Peel and stick elbow cup foam
pads on the inside of the elbow cup, one on each
side.
7.
Install battery with plastic tab and steel
contacts facing toward inside of battery com-
partment. The rechargeable battery may require
charging to ensure full capacity before using.

It should be noted at this point that the de
-
tector may not work as expected indoors due
to the high degree of metals ( nails, pipes, etc.)
used in modern construction and the presence
of electrical interference. It is best to tune and
practice out-of-doors to ensure stable, predicta-
ble results.
