General information on the use of retrieval magnets and Metalldetektoren

Magneten
Lifting magnets are much stronger than "ordinary" magnets. Therefore, keep a safe distance from all devices and objects that can be damaged or disturbed by magnetism. These include, among others: Older televisions and computer monitors, credit and debit cards, computers, hard disks floppy disks and other magnetic data carriers, video tapes, mechanical watches, hearing aids and loudspeakers. Modern cell phones with compass function and especially pacemakers can be disturbed by a large Magneten or switched to test mode - keep a sufficient distance (1m).

Not only "friendly" iron objects can be brought to the surface with retrieval magnets! Ammunition of all kinds can also stick to them! When searching, always observe the legal regulations and, if in doubt, have your found object examined by the local police or an explosive ordnance disposal service!

Metal detectors
We expressly point out that the use of metal detectors is at your own risk. In particular, the excavation of ammunition, toxic substances or similar hazardous substances can cause considerable personal injury and damage to property. The volume of headphones must be individually adjusted by the operator to suit their hearing; we are therefore not liable for any damage to hearing. Every explorer should inform themselves in advance about the risks and behave accordingly.

Our Metalldetektoren is not intended as a tool for unauthorized excavations. They merely reflect the increasing acceptance of modern electronic aids and the resulting opportunities and possibilities in the field of archaeological research.

Targeted research into objects of cultural-historical significance generally requires authorization from the relevant authorities. In this context, it is essential that you observe the regulations and laws applicable in your country or federal state.
