Mine is the old design, in 2 pieces. Also the cover for the control box. Drives me crazy >:(
Worth doing though. Have a can and try again ;) (or better still, get the Misses to do it.) ::) Val Title: Re: Protector covers Post by: roaljodaka on October 01, 2014, 08:50:15 PM Yes they are a right pain in the arse to fit, i bought one for my safari, that nearly ended up over the hedge lol, just persevere and don't expect a perfect fit :-\

i have a top stem cover for the etrac i can bring it up on sunday if you want to try it and see if it fits just bring a can of coke (not the powder stuff lol) and we can do a deal 8) mike Title: Re: Protector covers Post by: WEBBER on October 01, 2014, 09:16:15 PM Got the cover on now thanks for the offer but I can't make it Sunday I think I'm going to get the top stem cover for it as well to try and keep it in good condition .
Title: Re: Protector covers Post by: Radnor Bandit (Ian) on October 15, 2014, 02:02:01 PM I had this problem, turned out I was supplied the EXP 2 cover. The Etrac control box is slightly bigger and trying to fit it made me worry about the pressure needed to squeeze it on.
The annoying thing was that the cover was bought together with a new machine from detecnics. Any chance you can send it back to where you got it from as its clearly not fit for purpose and at £22 it should be. I took a chance on this guy and was very pleased with the deal and delivery time also it fits right. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rain-Dust-Cover-for-Minelab-E-Trac-Etrac-metal-detector-/251652531674?pt=US_Metal_Detector_Accessories&hash=item3a97a8e5da (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rain-Dust-Cover-for-Minelab-E-Trac-Etrac-metal-detector-/251652531674?pt=US_Metal_Detector_Accessories&hash=item3a97a8e5da) |
