Also, to prevent dust and moisture from entering,

use the protection of the connector for connecting

the coil to the control box!

When disconnecting the search coil

from the control box, do not pull on the

cable, as this may cause damage to it. In

this regard, false signals or a complete

sensor shutdown may appear. This fail-

ure, also, is not a warranty case.

* Any mechanical damage (impact on a stone, cracks in the case) is not a

warranty case.

WARRANTY FOR SEARCH COILS

Attention!

Be careful! When using two-frequency and three-frequency coils,

when switching the frequency, do not forget to tighten the protective cap!

Any mechanical damage to the frequency switch is not a warranty case.
