Remember to check those arm cuff hand screws for tightness

Never experienced this with the Safari, but I lost the arrm cuff hand screw and couldn't find it in the general area where I thought it would be. The big orange box store has a good replacement.

If you only had a metal detector to help you find the lost screw!

( ...sorry, couldn't resist. )

Hardware stores will also have plastic thumb knobs that you can press into/onto socket headed cap screws to 're-create' the original part.

I'd recommend that you get the stainless steel replacement instead if you get your detector wet. The zinc will crude and the steel below will rust

My plastic arm cuff started to crack around the hole for the screw I ended up buying a metal arm cuff ...

Yup, lost mine too. I know, I have a detector so go find it right, I tried. Called minelab and asked how I could order a new one and they sent me one free of charge. So ya, good advice, now I check mine before every trip.

Thanks for the upgrade suggestions as this cap screw worked in a pinch. No problems yet with this arm cuff cracking but I did replace the safari cuff with a metal one, years ago.....
