Figure 5 - Trigger locked off
Note
The rubber band is not needed to retain the locking strips or seal the DPV. It is
there solely to keep sand, silt or other debris out of the joint, which may get
into the o-ring groove when the DPV is opened. At the end of the diving day,
the rubber band should be slid forward so fresh water can flow around the
joint when it is rinsed and left clear of the joint until the next dive.
The recharge plug cover should only be installed when you are ready to dive. It contains a circuit
that enables the motor controller and should be thought of as an ignition key for an automobile.
When the cover is installed the batteries will begin discharging slowly, so do not leave the cover
installed when storing the scooter, or the batteries may be damaged by over discharge. Remove
the cover at the end of the diving day or after exiting the water if the DPV is run until battery
cutout. The recharge plug cover is rather expensive, so do not lose it.
Before entering the water, install the recharge plug cover and test that the DPV operates normally
by depressing the trigger and operating the variable speed up and down with the propeller speed
tracking the commanded speed. Always lock the trigger OFF and adjust the speed lever to OFF
while entering and exiting the water.
