RISK OF EJECTION OF OBJECTS OR FRAGMENTS
IN THE FLOW OF WATER EXPELLED FROM THE PROPELLER, SHARP OR
ABRASIVE SOLID FRAGMENTS MAY BE PRESENT: THE DIVER MUST WEAR
APPAREL SUITABLE FOR PROTECTING THE BODY, HANDS AND EYES FROM
POSSIBLE CUTS AND ABRASIONS.
THE USE OF PROTECTIVE GLOVES IS ALWAYS MANDATORY
NEVER leave the SCOOTER unattended specially near CHILDREN. Always turn it
off before exiting the water and disconnect the battery as soon as possible (see
previous chapters).
20.1. SCOOTER FLOODING, SINKING
The flooding of the SCOOTER and consequently its sinking is a hypothesis that could occur mainly as a result of:
•
un uso improprio,
•
un forte urto,
•
una chiusura scorretta dello SCOOTER,
•
un'inefficiente manutenzione.
In the event of flooding, the scooter will start to tilt downward and thus sinks.
In the event of total flooding, the situation could become POTENTIALLY
HAZARDOUS since the SCOOTER becomes negative and will start to SINK,
DRAGGING THE DIVER DOWN and therefore the scooter MUST BE IMMEDIATELY
ABANDONED.
20.2. EXITING THE WATER WITH THE SCOOTER
Exiting the water is another delicate moment in the dive and, in this case too, the addition of the SCOOTER could be
an extra task loading.
Depending where the dive started, always make sure the SCOOTER is the last
piece of equipment to recovery. Always put diver own safety first.
Pay particular attention when exiting rough sea since waves could lift and launch
the SCOOTER against the diver with even fatal consequences.
HEALTH PROTECTION - LEAD
In spite the contact whit the ballast elements is rare and therefore minimal the
exposure of humans and environment, the ballast elements contain metallic Lead
(inorganic).
