removed, charged and stored away from frosty conditions or excessive heat. Make sure
that the connectors do not come into contact with metal objects inside the HDV or the

the gasket is in view.
Important note: always remove the battery after the use.
26 Maintenance
OR seal maintenance
Open the HDV, gently remove the lock O-ring (19) (see fig. 5) being careful not to scratch
the O-ring support surfaces, and clean the seating thoroughly (only by means of a clean
brush or soft cloth). Do not use any type of solvent or alcohol. Apply silicone oil to the O-
ring and return it to its place. Do not use any other type of oil!!! We recommend the aerosol
spray type which is usually used for diving equipment. Occasionally, lubricate the lock
knob screw with normal mineral grease. Never lubricate trigger or magnetic piston
movement. They would fill of sand and dirt. Do not lubricate electrical contacts!
Closing knob gasket maintenance
Whenever the closing knob (9) (see fig. 1) comes into contact with sand, rinse with running
water before rotating it. About every 50 uses, remove it, using pliers, clean the gaskets
and lubricate with marine grease, If you are not familiar with this operation, contact an
authorized service centre.
Supplementary maintenance
Every hundred hours of use or at least every two years, we recommend you overhaul the
HDV checking hydraulic seals and electrical circuits.
