ntroduction
a. Servicing the F3Ci includes fault finding, repair and maintenance and is designed to be
simple and fast thereby reducing the amount of time a detector is unusable. Repair and
maintenance is based on line replaceable units which can be fitted to a detector without the
need for adjustment or calibration. Additionally, serviceable line replaceable units can be
exchanged between detectors as required.
b. Line replaceable units are components or sub-assemblies of the F3Ci that can be
purchased from Minelab for the purpose of repairing the F3Ci. Line replaceable units include
the following:
3004-0135 Coil Kit F3Ci
3004-0130 Coil Pivot Kit F3Ci *
3004-0131 Shaft Kit F3Ci *
3004-0047 Camlock kit *
3004-0048 Armrest Kit with Slide *
3004-0049 Armrest Kit *
3004-0132 Handle Kit
3004-0051 Battery Compartment Kit *
3004-0052 Battery Lid Kit *
3004-0133 Main PCB Kit F3Ci

c. Servicing the F3Ci can be conducted in the field (under clean dry conditions) or at local
service centres. No special tools are required, but it is recommended that the F3Ci Service Tool
Kit be used.
d. Servicing the F3Ci is restricted to the exchange of line replaceable units following the
identification of a faulty sub-assembly. Servicing DOES NOT include any repairs to printed circuit
boards as this is only conducted at a Minelab facility.
e. This manual should be read in conjunction with the F3Ci Operations Manual.
Additionally, from time to time, Minelab will issue Technical Service Notes which serve to
supplement the information contained in this manual.
f. Any questions regarding this manual or any repair procedure can be directed to Minelab
