Maintenance Tips    

• Wipe down control unit, shaft, coils, and pinpointer after each use to remove dirt, sand, and salt residue.
• Rinse coils with fresh water after beach or wet ground use; avoid submerging control box or electronics.
• Keep coil connectors and shaft joints free of grit to maintain stable signal performance and fit.
• Inspect coil cables regularly for wear, tight bends, or cuts—replace early to avoid interference issues.
• Clean Pro-Find 40 pinpointer tip and body after each use; ensure cap and seal are free of sand.
• Check battery compartments on detector and pinpointer for moisture or corrosion; dry immediately if present.
• Store lithium batteries partially charged in a cool, dry place; avoid full discharge and extreme heat.
• Avoid leaving equipment in direct sunlight or hot vehicles, which can damage displays, seals, and batteries.
• Tighten and inspect coil bolts, shaft locks, and armrest fittings periodically for stability during use.
• Use only mild soap and a damp cloth—never harsh chemicals or solvents that may damage finishes.
• Dry all components fully before storage, especially after rain, beach, or river detecting sessions.
• Store in protective cases or padded bags to prevent coil warping, shaft stress, and accessory damage.
