ADJUSTING THE STEM
Follow these steps to adjust the metal
detector’s stem.
1. Turn the stem’s lock nut clockwise
until it loosens.
2. Lengthen or shorten the stem so when
you stand upright with the detector in
your hand, the search coil is level with
and about 1/2 to 2 inches above the
ground with your arm relaxed at your
side.
3. Turn the stem’s lock nut counter
clockwise to lock it in place.
ADJUSTING THE SEARCH
COIL
Loosen the knobs at the search coil’s end, then
adjust the search coil to the desired angle. (The
search coil should be parallel with the ground.)
Tighten the knobs just enough to keep the search
coil from rotating or wobbling.
INSTALLING BATTERIES
You need six AA batteries to power your
detector.
Cautions:
z Use only fresh batteries of the required
size and recommended type.
z Do not mix old and new batteries, different
types of batteries (standard, alkaline, of
rechargeable), or rechargeable batteries of
different capacities.
1. If the detector is on, turn VOLUME(on the
control housing) to OFF. (The control
clicks.)
2. Press on the battery compartment cover
and slide the cover off in the direction of
the arrow.
3. Insert the batteries into the compartment as
indicated by the polarity symbols (+ and -)
marked inside the compartment.
4. Replace the cover.
Cautions:
z Always remove old or weak batteries;
batteries can leak chemicals that can
destroy electronic parts.
z If you do not plan to use the detector
for a week or more, remove the
batteries.
z Dispose of old batteries promptly and
properly.
You can extend battery life by using
earphones, which require less power than the
built-in speakers. See “Using Earphones” on
Page 6.
TESTING THE BATTERIES
If the detector does not turn on, has weak
volume, will not tune properly, or has erratic
operation, or drifts, test the battery power.
Rotate VOLUME away from OFF and set
OPERATE/BATT TEST to BATT TEST.
If the pointer on the view meter is between 3
and 6 (green area), the batteries have enough
power to operate the detector. If the pointer is
not in the green area, replace the batteries.
