LASER RAPIER II OPERATOR INSTRUCTION MANUAL
☑ The searchcoil cable is hard wired to the searcoil and protected by a
strain relief. Inspect the strain relief frequently to make sure it is firmly
attached and intact.
☑ Keep cables properly wound around the pole stems and protect them
during use. Floppy, pinched, or snagged cables may short, causing er-
ratic noises or unnecessary replacement of the searchcoil.
☑ Sweep the searchcoil carefully, especially when using around rocks
and building foundations and avoid hitting the searchcoil against hard,
solid objects and surfaces.
☑ Keep your searchcoil slightly off of the ground during the sweep es-
pecially when using in gravel or hard, rocky dirt.
☑ Always use a properly designed protective scuff cover on the search-
coil.
☑ Remove and clean out scuff covers periodically to avoid buildup of
mineralized dirt particles which will affect performance.
☑ The searchcoil is waterproof and can be submerged in either fresh or
salt water. After the searchcoil is used in salt water, rinse it and the
lower stem assembly well with fresh water to prevent corrosion of the
metal parts.
☑ The searchcoil is waterproof but the electronics are not, so always
prevent any moisture or water from entering the control housing and
never allow the cable connectors to become submerged in water.
☑ If working in or near water, or if there is a possibility of rain, use a pro-
tective weather resistant pouch or plastic bag to cover the control hous-
ing. Make sure it can “breath” in order to ensure against condensation
buildup inside.
☑ After each use, clean the detector with a soft cloth to remove dust,
moisture, or other contaminants.
☑ When transporting the detector in a car during hot weather, store it on
the floor of the passenger compartment if possible. Using a carry bag
gives additional protection. In any case, never allow the detector to
roll around unprotected in the trunk or back of a pickup truck.
☑ Protect your detector from dust, moisture, and extreme temperatures
during storage.
☑ When shipping, use the original factory carton or similar heavy-duty
container, and provide a minimum one inch of padding around all
parts.
☑ Treat your detector as you would any sensitive electronic instrument.
Though ruggedly constructed and designed to withstand the demands
of normal treasure hunting, proper care is essential.
