Assembly of the Vaquero is simple and requires no special tools. Just install the battery, mount
the searchcoil on the lower pole assembly, connect the pole assemblies together, wrap the excess
cable around the pole and, plug the cable into the control housing. Finally, adjust the pole length
and searchcoil angle and you're ready!

INSTALLING THE BATTERY

Your Vaquero is equipped with a battery test switch so that you can always be sure you are
getting top performance. (See QUICKSTART for operation.) The battery should be checked
after the detector has been on for about 10 minutes and then periodically when used for long
durations.
