Description

The Schonstedt GA-52Cx Magnetic Locator has been setting the standards for reliability and dependability for over 50 years. They are designed to withstand the rigors of daily on-site usage and a wide range of environmental conditions. Built with metal housing, the GA-52Cx provides a robust industrial tool, with clear audio indication of buried ferrous objects. It offers swift, accurate locating and its simple controls require minimal training.

High levels of sensitivity allow you to find what you’re looking for quickly, without the risk of passing over your target.
85% of the Surveyor market can’t be wrong.

Easy-To-Use

The GA-52Cx survey metal detector detects the magnetic field of iron and steel objects, with unmatched sensitivity.

Only two Controls! Designed for one-hand operations, the On/Off-Sensitivity and Volume controls are located on the underside of the cover. This provides easy access, protects the knobs, and contributes to their overall ruggedness and dependability.

Handgrip Design and Purpose - Designed to:

Encourage proper hand placement on the locator
Decrease damage-related repairs and warranty returns
Reduce stress on the chassis and associated components caused by improper handling

Handgrip

New rubber/foam grip has been added to the top of the base and tube assembly to encourage proper handling of the GA-52Cx.
Field Observation

Holding and swinging the locator by the cover can lead to bending of the chassis ears over time. This risk is increased when thumb nuts are not fully tightened, potentially resulting in additional structural damage.
Intended Usage

The handgrip promotes holding the locator at the base and tube assembly, which is the recommended operating position. Proper handling improves product longevity and reduces the likelihood of damage.
