Care Of The Unit - Minelab X-Terra 50 Manual

64
The X-Terra is a high quality electronic
instrument, finely engineered and packaged
in a durable housing. Taking proper care
of your X-Terra is common sense.
The X-Terra's storage temperature is
-4˚F to 149˚F (-20˚C to +65˚C) and the
operating temperature is 32˚F to 113˚F
(0˚C to 45˚C). Do not leave the detector
in excessive heat or cold for longer than
necessary. Try to avoid leaving it in a
closed trunk or in a car sitting in sunlight.
Covering it when not in use will help
protect it.
The coil can be submersed in water
up to 20" (0.5m), yet the control box is
not waterproof. Although it has been
designed to be weather resistant, it is
advised to protect the control box in
wet conditions. A protective control box
cover is available. (Protective Accessories,
pg. 68)
Never allow the detector to come into
contact with gasoline or other petroleum
based liquids.
Keep the detector clean and dry
and avoid getting sand and grit into
the shafts or fastenings (e.g. yoke,
twistlocks). Do not use solvents to
clean the detector. Use a damp cloth
with mild soap detergent.
