5.1. Assembly of X-Terra Elite Detector
- സെർച്ച് കോയിൽ അറ്റാച്ചുചെയ്യുക: Connect the V12X search coil to the lower shaft using the provided bolt and wing nut. Ensure it is secure but allows for slight angle adjustment.
- ഷാഫ്റ്റ് കൂട്ടിച്ചേർക്കുക: Connect the lower shaft to the middle shaft, and then the middle shaft to the upper shaft (control unit assembly). Adjust the length to a comfortable position for your height.
- Secure the Armrest: Adjust the armrest position for comfort and secure it.
- കേബിൾ പൊതിയുക: Carefully wrap the search coil cable around the shaft, ensuring it is not too tight or loose, and plug it into the control unit.

6.1. പവർ ഓൺ/ഓഫ്
അമർത്തിപ്പിടിക്കുക ശക്തി button (refer to Image 4.2) to turn the detector on or off. The LCD display will illuminate.
6.2. Search Modes
The X-Terra Elite offers multiple search modes optimized for different environments:
- Park Mode (2 settings): Ideal for parks, lawns, and general detecting.
- Field Mode (2 settings): Suitable for agricultural fields and open areas.
- Beach Mode (2 settings): Optimized for wet sand and saltwater conditions.
Select your desired mode using the മോഡ് കണ്ടെത്തുക button (refer to Image 4.2). The Multi-IQ technology automatically adapts to the chosen environment.

6.4. സെൻസിറ്റിവിറ്റി അഡ്ജസ്റ്റ്മെന്റ്
Adjust the detector's sensitivity using the Sensitivity / Settings Adjust buttons (refer to Image 4.2). There are 25 levels of sensitivity. Higher sensitivity increases detection depth but may also increase ground noise. Adjust as needed for your specific search environment.
6.5. Target ID and Audio Feedback
The X-Terra Elite provides 119 Target IDs to help distinguish between different types of metals (ferrous and non-ferrous). The detector also features all-tone audio, allowing you to gauge a target's size and depth by listening to the audio response. Higher tones generally indicate more conductive targets, while lower tones suggest ferrous items.

6.6. സൂചിപ്പിക്കൽ
Once a target is detected, press the Pinpoint/Detect button (refer to Image 4.2) to narrow down its exact location. Move the coil slowly over the target area until the strongest signal is heard, indicating the center of the target.

6.7. PRO-FIND 35 Pinpointer Operation
The PRO-FIND 35 assists in quickly locating targets once they have been detected by the main unit. It features 5 sensitivity levels, audio and vibrate target indication, and Detector Interference Free (DIF) technology to minimize interference with the X-Terra Elite. Turn on the pinpointer and sweep it over the excavated area to precisely locate the target.

6.8. Waterproof Operation
Both the X-Terra Elite and PRO-FIND 35 are fully waterproof and submersible up to 16 ft (5 m). Before submerging, ensure all battery compartments and cable connections are sealed properly. After use in saltwater, rinse the detector and pinpointer with fresh water to prevent corrosion.
7. പരിപാലനം
- വൃത്തിയാക്കൽ: Wipe down the detector and coil with a damp cloth after each use. Avoid abrasive cleaners. For saltwater use, rinse thoroughly with fresh water.
- ബാറ്ററി കെയർ: Recharge the Lithium-Ion battery regularly. For long-term storage, charge the battery to approximately 50% and store in a cool, dry place.
- സംഭരണം: Store the detector in a dry, temperate environment. Avoid leaving it in direct sunlight or extreme cold.
- കോയിൽ സംരക്ഷണം: The V12X search coil comes with a skidplate. Ensure it is properly attached to protect the coil from scratches and impacts.
