Finders Super Fix
(A) Attaching Super Fix to your detector
The Super Fix add on housing has been designed to affix onto the RHS of all Minelab P.I. detector
control housings, it is the same height (140mm) and 10mm shorter (110mm) than a SD2000 control
housing and is only 35mm wide.
Super Fix is supplied with two Velcro fastening strips attached to the inner side ready for use. Before
removing the protective layer from the Velcro strips place the Super Fix control model on the RHS of
your Minelab detector to familiarise yourself with the final positioning. You should note that when
attached to a SD 2000, the rear of the Super Fix housing should align with the rear of the detector
control box housing, and the uppermost Velcro strip should position just beneath the bottom of the
riveted armrest bracket. If your detector is a later model SD or GP detector you should align the rear of
the Super Fix to the inside face of the moulded built in rest, you will note that the stereo headphone
sockets have been off set to allow this.
Simply peel away the protective outer layer to expose the self stick surface ready to press onto the
right hand side of your Minelab detector’s control housing when viewed from the rear. Before fixing
first make sure that the side of your control housing is clean of dirt, dust and greasy substances which
may affect proper adhesion.
Your normal four pin battery connector should now be coupled to the socket on Super Fix’s rear panel
and the fly lead with four pin plug attached to the Minelab Control housing making sure that both
connections are firmly tightened.
