speed 1. On your 1
st
dive, get used to this speed for a few minutes, and adjust the tow rope,
and tighten the sliding knots, before attempting the use of speed 2 or 3.
Once speed 1 is engaged, turning the trigger off and back on quickly (<0.5 seconds) shifts the
scooter up 1 speed to speed 2, and another quick twist off/on will kick the scooter into high
gear/speed 3.
To slow down, turn off the scooter for 1 second and the scooter will then start off in gear1.
From a standstill you can click the trigger quickly 2 or 3 times and the scooter will skip speed
1 or 2 and go directly to you chosen speed.
During the dive: We recommend to use speed # 3 sparingly, as it cuts down your run time by
at least 50% compared to speed #2. For the majority of your dive time, USE ELECTRONIC
SPEED #2 TO OPTIMISE THE SPEED-RUNTIME TRADE-OFF.
Matching speeds with your dive partner: We recommend matching speeds on Electronic
speed#2, which is your cruise speed for technical diving. Have the faster diver start off at a
medium pitch setting (eg, #6 or 7) and the slower diver can then set his scooter to run on
pitch #8 or 9.
General notes:
Be careful when disconnecting the motor from the electronics, as the wires can be broken.
(requiring new electronics)
When installing the hull, be careful that all wires kept inside the hull.
Opening the battery canister voids all warranty on the battery pack. The battery pack is high
voltage (50 volts) so use caution at all times.
Plugging in the electronics with the wrong polarity will destroy the electronic speed controller
(and possibly the battery BMS).
Minimum recommended propeller pitch setting #5 (lower setting produce cavitation/prop stall
at high rpm's) If you want to go slower, use the electronic speeds.
