Title: HELP QUICK. Post by: NEMESIS on February 23, 2014, 12:54:02 PM Hi all. I'm going to look at a Garret 250 this afternoon.
My question is..... I read somewhere that if you dismantle the machine, you should NEVER disconnect the cable off the coil end, only at the controller end.( it damages the windings or something) .... is this correct??? Therefore if I get there and he's boxed it up ready and done the above should I leave well alone. He was a newbie to it aswell and didn't get along with the hobby and may not have known about that issue. Thnx again. Title: Re: HELP QUICK.

As alun said buddy, it is sealed and no screw thread to unscrew!!Title: Re: HELP QUICK. Post by: NEMESIS on February 23, 2014, 02:10:36 PM LOL... Thnx lads. Suppose I should change my posts from, NEWB to NOOB. :D

I'm amazed at how much I've learned in the short time I've been detecting...............and I know nothing ::) Welcome to the Forum. Just ask, there's always some one on here will have the answer. Val |
