Manual
Thank you for purchasing a VK-Series
detector from VIKING. This is one of a family
of microprocessor driven metal detectors
that are very simple to use yet provide
excellent performance. The VK20 is a motion
metal detector and the VK30 also provides
non-motion operation, which assists with the
accurate pinpointing of targets.
Please take time to read this booklet. It will guide
you through each of the available features to
ensure you get the best out of your detector.
The term 'motion' used above simply means the
search head needs to be kept moving in order to
detect metal items.
This allows the
microprocessor to analyse the received signals
and discriminate against poor quality metals.
When a suitable target is detected, an audible
'beep' is heard either from the loudspeaker or
headphones (if connected).
Getting Started
1.
Unpack The Detector
There are two main sections. The 'S' shaft, onto
which is mounted the control box, armrest and
detector stand, and the lower shaft with the
search head.
2.
Assemble The Detector
Note the spring button clip protruding from near
the top end of the lower shaft. Slide the lower
shaft into the 'S' shaft, wrapping the cable
snugly, but not tightly, round the shaft. When
correctly aligned the spring button clip will click
into 1 of the 3 holes in the 'S' shaft.
3.
Tighten the coupling
Turn the coupling to the 'lock' position as
indicated by the arrow. This makes a rigid
connection between the two parts of the shaft.
4.
Insert Battery
The detector takes a single PP3 (alkaline) 9V
battery.
This is placed in the battery
compartment on the back of the control box.
ENSURE THE BATTERY IS INSERTED THE
CORRECT WAY ROUND
Push the drawer back into the detector until it
clicks. Please note the drawer can only be
inserted the one way.
