The INDEX OF COMMON QUESTIONS on page 25
is a quick reference that guides you to the page
containing the answers to some of the more
common questions new metal detector owners
have.
Basic Care
The Rapier II is a sturdy instrument, but it is not designed to
withstand abuse. In caring for your Rapier II, there are several important
“DO NOTs” to remember. DO NOT use it to pry rocks loose or to beat
bushes out of the way. DO NOT drop the machine into water. DO NOT
use it unprotected in the rain. DO NOT leave it exposed at night where
dew could form on it. DO NOT store it in places that could be extremely
hot (next to a woodstove, in an attic). DO NOT leave it in the truck of a
car or in the back of a hatchback style car where high temperatures could
build up. DO NOT store it with the battery installed as batteries may
leak. DO NOT spray lubricants such as WD-40, or any type of cleaner,
solvents, sealants or other chemicals into or onto the electrical parts,
switches or controls. And finally, DO NOT attempt to modify or repair
the detector’s electronics as this will void your detector’s warranty.
THE WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER DAMAGE
RESULTING FROM AN ACCIDENT, NEGLECT OR ABUSE.
Protecting your investment
Often detectorists are disappointed when their new detector
slowly becomes less and less responsive and seems to have lost some of
its original peak performance. You can help avoid this from happening
to your detector by following these basic care and protection guidelines.
☑
Operate your detector exactly as recommended in this OPERATROR
INSTRUCTION MANUAL.
☑
Use only high-quality alkaline batteries of the correct voltage. Never
substitute a different voltage. When using a Ni-Cad battery always use
a separate convertible pack with the proper voltage output for the
detector’s design.
☑
Remove the battery from the detector after each use. This will prevent
damage to the detector if the battery leaks.
