5. With the stem length properly adjusted, wrap the
loop cable tightly around the center section stem
and secure it with the two Velcro straps. Connect
the cable connector to the control housing.
CAUTION: Make sure that the cable is not pulled tight
at the control housing and that you have enough slack
at the search coil to adjust it to any angle.
6. With the shaft length and coil angle properly
adjusted, you should be able to move into your
“search” position (as shown in illustration below) by
leaning forward very slightly and raising your arm (still
straight) until the search coil is about 2 inches above
the ground and 12 inches in front of your foot. The
search coil should be parallel to the ground and may
have to be slightly readjusted at this point.
Figure 2. SEARCH POSITION.
Adjust the stem length and coil
angle so the coil rests at on
the ground about 6 to 12 inches
in front of your foot. Move
into your “search” position by
leaning forward slightly and
raising the coil about 2 inches
off the ground. This should put
the search coil out about 12 to
18 inches in front of your foot.

Your CZ-3D doesn’t require a lot of care. It’s built with high quality
materials but there are a few things you should do to keep it in
peak operating condition.
1. If you’re not going to be using it for a while, take
the batteries out. Acid damage caused by leaking
batteries can be severe.
2. Avoid extreme temperatures. Don’t leave it inside
a closed car sitting in the sun, or even worse, the
trunk of a car.
3. If you “scrub” the search coil on the ground, you’ll
eventually wear through the bottom of the coil.
Replacement coils are expensive. Instead, invest in
a coil cover. They’re cheap.
4. Keep your CZ-3D dry and clean. If you’ve been
working in or around salt water or dust, wipe it down
with a damp cloth and dry it with a hair dryer (low or
no heat) or dry cloth. Remove and clean the lower
stem. Keep the lock nut free of sand and dirt.
