and align the holes of the pole tip and washers with those of
the mounting ears. Note: The pole tip should fit very snugly
into the mounting ears. 
Insert the mounting screw through the holes in the mounting
ears and pole tip—entering from the side opposite the cable
connection.

3.

Install the thumb nut on the mounting screw and tighten by
hand. Note: Do not overtighten the thumb nut. It should be
snug, but not too difficult to loosen up. 

4.

On both pole assemblies, turn the plastic lock nuts at the end of the poles completely clockwise to
the unlocked position to allow one pole to fit into the other pole. On the middle pole assembly,
depress the two spring buttons and slide the middle pole assembly into the upper pole assembly
until the spring buttons click into the holes—locking the two assemblies into place. Tighten the
pole lock to secure the two assemblies together. Slide the lower pole into the middle pole until the
spring buttons click into the first set of adjustment holes. Turn pole lock to tighten—locking the
assembly into place.

5.

Note: The plastic lock nuts will be used to eliminate any “slop” in the pole joint by turning it
counterclockwise to the locked position.

Wrap the cable around the pole leaving enough slack near the searchcoil to permit searchcoil
adjustment. Note: Do not allow the cable to flop loosely over the searchcoil. Since the detector is
sensitive enough to “see” the tiny wires in the cable, a floppy cable can cause false signals as the
searchcoil senses the moving wires.

6.

Plug the male cable end into the female connector on the control housing and tighten the cable
thumb nut. You are finished!

7.

Note: You will want to adjust the pole length and searchcoil angle to your preference.

ADJUSTING THE POLE & SEARCHCOIL

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
