Graphic Target Profiling 1350

™

WARNING!

Any metal detector may discover underground

power lines, explosives or other items which when

struck could cause personal injury. When searching

for treasure with your

GTP 1350

, observe these

precautions:

• Do not hunt in an area where you believe there

may be shallowly buried underground electric

lines or pipes.

• Avoid striking any line known to be, or suspected

to be, carrying electrical power.

• Do not disturb any pipeline, particularly if it

could be carrying flammable gas or liquid.

• Use reasonable caution in digging toward any

target, particularly in areas where you are

uncertain of underground conditions.
