How do I take care of my metal detector?
- If you apply sunscreen or insect repellant, wash your hands before handling your metal detector.
- Use a gentle soap and or damp cloth to keep your metal detector clean. No solvents.
- Never allow the detector to come into contact with gasoline/petrol or other petroleum-based liquids.
- Avoid getting sand and grit in the shafts and fastenings. If sand and grit should accumulate in these parts, wipe clean with a damp cloth.
- Keep your metal detector and accessories away from sharp objects to prevent scratches and damage.
