MAINTENANCE
Your
GTAx 550 is a sensitive instrument built to
withstand rugged treatment in the outdoors. Use
your Garrett detector to the fullest extent, yet always
protect and handle it with reasonable care.
• Avoid extreme temperatures as much as possible,
such as storing the detector in an automobile trunk
during the summer or winter months. When storing
longer than about one month, remove the battery
holders and batteries from the detector.
• Keep the detector clean. Wipe the housing after
use and wash the coil when necessary. Protect
the
GTAx 550 from dust and sand as much as
possible.
• Your 7x10"
PROformance searchcoil is submersible,
but your GTAx 550's control housing is not. Never
submerge the control housing and always protect it
from heavy mist, rain or blowing surf.
• Disassemble the stem and wipe it clean after use
in sandy areas.
