open fields.

Do not let another detector or an

electromagnetic device come in close

proximity (10m (33ft.)) to the device.

Do not carry any metal objects while using

the device. Keep the device away from your

shoes while walking. The device may detect

the metals on you or inside your shoes as

targets.

For Consumers within the European Union: Do

not dispose of this equipment in general

household waste. The crossed wheeled bin

PARTS and ASSEMBLY

Attach the right/left armrest components to the

S-rod with the bolts and nuts as seen in the

picture. Do not tighten the nuts but rather leave

them loose (these will be tightened after the

system box is attached).

Place the system box on the rail behind the

armrest and push forward. Then secure by

tightening the nuts. Attach the armrest strap

by inserting it through the holes.

PARTS and ASSEMBLY

1)To attach the telescopic shaft to

the S-rod, first loosen the twist

lock. 2)By holding the metal pin

pressed, insert the telescopic

shaft into the S-rod and click the

pin into its hole. 3)Secure it by

tightening the twist lock. 4)After

adjusting the shaft length to your

height, secure by tightening the

twist lock.

1)Place the washers into the

openings at the end of the

telescopic shaft. 2)Place the shaft

on the coil as shown in the

picture. 3)Secure by tightening

the bolt and the wingnut.

Wrap the coil cable around the

shaft all the way up as shown in

the picture and after inserting it in

the coil input socket underneath

the system box, secure it by

twisting the connector. Pay

attention to not wrap the cable

too tight during this step. Insert

the handle cable in the socket

underneath the system box

(HANDLE) and secure it by

twisting the connector. Finally,

secure the cable by attaching the

clamps at 3 dierent spots.

CORRECT WAY OF HOLDING

CORRECT WAY OF SWEEPING

Shaft height is wrong.

It is very important to adjust the shaft to your

height correctly to be able to search without

discomfort and fatigue.

Shaft height is correct.

Adjust the height of the shaft so that you are

standing in an upright position, your arm is

relaxed and the search coil is approximately 5cm

(~2'') above the ground.

Wrong search coil angle

Incorrect way of sweeping

Wrong search coil angle Correct search coil angle

It is important to keep the search coil

parallel to the ground in order to get

accurate results.

Correct way of sweeping

The search coil must be parallel to the

ground at all times.

The device comes with 4 AA Alkaline batteries.

Slide and remove the battery compartment cover by pressing the latch. Insert the batteries

paying attention to the + (plus) and – (minus) poles.

When batteries are full, they will provide approximately 25-30 hours of use. Dierent types

or brand of batteries may have dierent lifetimes.

For best performance, using AA Alkaline batteries is recommended. You may also use high

quality rechargeable Ni-MH batteries. Rechargeable batteries with higher mAh (capacity)

ratings will provide longer run times. Using batteries with minimum 2500mAh is recom-

mended.

LOW BATTERY

The battery icon on the LCD panel indicates the battery life status. In addition, a warning

message will appear on the screen when the batteries are low. After the low battery

warning, the batteries will run approximately 3-4 more hours. This runtime will vary based

on the remaining battery charge. Ni-MH batteries have lower voltage so their remaining

runtime will be longer than Alkaline batteries. This does not aect the total runtime.

DEVICE INTRODUCTION

(1) POWER SWITCH:

To turn on the device, press the power switch to (1) position. The startup tone will be heard

and after the FORS Tech logo is displayed for a short period of time, the main screen will

come up on the LCD panel.

(2) GROUND TRACKING SWITCH:

When the ground tracking is active (at 1 position), the device will track the changes in

ground and automatically adjust the ground balance to suit. The invisible changes in

ground aects the detection depth as well as the discrimination ability of the device so you

can improve the performance of the device by activating this feature on suitable ground.

You can find more details about ground tracking on page 19.

(3) MENU AND SETTINGS SWITCHES:

These switches allow you to access the menu and scroll through options as well as adjust

device settings.

On the main screen, you can access the menu by pressing one of the up/down/+/-

switches. You can select the menu options with the up and down switch and change the

value with the + (plus) and - (minus). Pressing these switches in a specific order will result

in ''resetting factory settings'' or ''saving startup settings''. You can find more details about

this on page 30 under the title FACTORY and STARTUP SETTINGS.
