Side-Mount Upper Shaft
(Available as an accessory)
The alternate position of the pins allows the control
cylinder and battery to be attached on the side of the
shaft. The side-mount position allows you to detect
close to the ground and reduces the resistance when
wading or detecting underwater.
The control cylinder is attached to the side-mount
shaft using the same procedure as for the standard
upper shaft.

Connecting the Battery Pack to the Upper Shaft:
1 Connect the cable from the control cylinder to the
battery pack, using the guide screw to align the
battery contacts correctly.
2 Firmly tighten the water exclusion seal by hand. This
seal must be firmly tightened to ensure that no water
enters the connection. Water in the connection can
cause instability and corrosion of contacts which will
void the warranty.
Minelab applies a silicone grease to the battery
connections during the manufacturing process. This may
need to be reapplied over time as part of your routine
detector maintenance. (pg. 35)
If the battery is not already clipped to the shaft:
3 Compress the middle spring loaded pin of the
upper shaft.
4 Ensure that the battery cable is pointing down. Slide
the battery onto the bottom of the shaft until the pin
reaches the adjustment holes. The pin will spring out
and clip into place.
