7. Remove the protective paper from the two black arm cup foam pads.
Carefully align pads on the inside of the elbow cup, one on each side of
the center rod, and press fi rmly into place.
8. Adjust the elbow cup strap so that it is loose enough for you to slide
your arm in and out of the arm-cup without lessening the strap each time
you want to set the detector down to dig. The elbow cup strap provides
extra leverage and control. However, some prefer not to use it.
9. Charge and install battery as described in the next section.
10. It should be noted at this point that the detector might not work as ex-
pected indoors due to the high degree of metal used in modern construc-
tion. It is best to tune and practice out-of-doors to ensure stable, predict-
able results. Additionally, freshly buried targets will rarely produce the
typical depth and tone results of targets that have been naturally lost and
settled in undisturbed ground. Due to the abnormalities caused by digging
a hole in the ground matrix, and the lack of normal target to soil reactions,
it may take a number of years for freshly buried targets to respond at true
depths. The best way to determine true detection depth is in real search
conditions.
11. Hip or Chest Mounting;
a) Disconnect the search coil cable from the control box. On top
of the control box, the rod mounting plate has four Phillips head screws.
Remove these four screws and remove the rod/loop/arm cup assembly
from the top of the control box. To prevent moisture/dirt from entering the
control box, replace the four screws on top the control box (sink all the
way) without the rod or mounting plate.
b) Unravel enough loop cable from around the rod to allow slack
to sweep the rod/search coil. Connect the rod/search coil cable to the
control box. Use two black Velcro straps provided to secure loop/search
