General Tools and Instruments DCS280 - Manual (Page 10)

• If condensation forms inside the camera lens, let it evaporate before using
the system again.
• Remove the batteries if planning to store the unit for months or longer.
• Properly dispose of used batteries. Exposure to high temperatures can cause
batteries to explode, so do not incinerate them. Some countries regulate
battery disposal. Please follow all applicable rules.
OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES
Although the DCS280 comes with a 1m long, 9mm diameter probe, the grip can
accept any probe or probe extension designed for The SEEKER 200, 300 or 400
lines of video inspection systems.
Different vehicles demand probes of different lengths and diameters. For example,
the included probe is long and thin enough for most work on gasoline engines or
vehicle undercarriages. However, you may need a thinner probe to inspect the
coolant passages of an engine block through the hole of a freeze/casting plug,
or to fit inside the glow plug hole of a diesel engine.
Since you already have a 9mm probe, it is unlikely you will want a thicker (12mm)
probe. The table below lists the salient features of the other five probes you may
want to purchase as accessories.
