Proper care
1. Cleaning-
A. Both the coil and rod are waterproof and can be
cleaned with fresh water and mild soap. The control
box is not waterproof and must be kept dry. Never lift
a wet coil above the height of the control box as water
can run down the inside of the rod damaging the
electronics. A damp cotton cloth can be used to wipe
off a dirty control box.
2. Weather-
A. Do not expose your detector to the conditions of a
car trunk during winter and/or summer extremes.
B. Protect it from direct sunlight during storage.
C. The control box is rain resistant. However, it must
be protected from heavy rain.
3. Storage-
A. When the instrument is not in use, make sure it is
turned OFF.
B. If you plan on storing your detector for long,
remove the battery holder from the instrument and
remove the batteries from the holder.
C. Store the instrument indoors in an area where it
will be protected from abuse. Over the years White’s
has noted a higher percentage of service issues and
physical damage regarding units in storage than
those experiencing regular use.
4. Additional Precautions-
A. Avoid dropping your detector while attempting to
set it down to dig.
B. Avoid using your detector for leverage when
standing up from a dig.
C. Do not use any lubricants, such as WD-40, on
any part of your detector.
D. Do not modify your instrument during its war-
ranty period.
