Using the Arva Guide 260 Avalanche Probe is easy. First, pull the handle to deploy the probe. Thanks to the RACK LOCK system, you can quickly get the tension cable tight. The pull handle is convenient for deployment and can be snapped onto the tube when you start shoveling after finding the victim. When assembling the tube segments, the cone inserts will help you put them together easily.
When using the probe, make sure to handle it with care. Don't use excessive force that might damage the aluminum tubes or the tension cord. Also, be careful when inserting the probe into the snow to avoid bending it.
For maintenance, after each use, wipe the probe clean to remove any snow or debris. Check the tension cord and the locking system regularly for any signs of wear. If you notice any issues, get it repaired or replaced as soon as possible. Store the probe in a dry place to prevent rusting of the stainless - steel parts and damage to the aluminum tubes.
