Adjusting the Detector for
Comfortable Detecting
For comfortable detecting it is important to
take the time to adjust the detector correctly.
Holding the Detector
Thread your arm through the armrest and
strap. Grasp the handle of the detector and
rest your forearm in the armrest.
The correct position of the armrest should
allow you to comfortably grip the handle.
Your elbow should sit just above the back of
the armrest and the detector should feel like
an extension of your forearm.
Adjusting the Armrest Strap:
1 Loosen the strap by tilting the top edge
of the buckle out to release it from
the armrest.
2 Undo the Velcro and pull the buckle
outwards (towards yourself ) to loosen
the strap.
3 Clip the buckle back into place and tighten
the strap until your arm is secure whilst in
the armrest. Re-attach the Velcro.
2 While holding the detector, slide the
armrest to sit just below your elbow.
3 Remove your arm. Tighten screw (turn
clockwise) to lock the armrest into position.
Adjusting the Position of the Armrest:
1 Use a screwdriver, or the edge of a coin,
to loosen the screw in the centre of the
armrest (turn counter-clockwise).
Adjusting the Length of the Shafts
A correct shaft length will allow you to
swing the coil over the ground without
uncomfortably stretching or stooping.
If the coil is too far from your body it will be
dicult to balance and manoeuvre
while detecting.
If the coil is too close to your body it may
detect your digging tools or any other
metal which you are carrying, causing
confusing sounds.
Adjust the lower shaft to the correct length,
securing the camlock to hold it in place.
A longer lower shaft is available for
tall people (p. 88).

correct length
