AZARDOUS AREA AND RESIDUAL RISKS
The propeller is protected by an external radial circular band. Therefore it is exposed
on both the suction and expulsion sides. Additional protections were not installed in
these areas
since they would significantly reduce fluid passage in the conduit
,
drastically reducing propulsion system performance
and thus vehicle autonomy.
A
protection grill on the flow suction side can be easily clogged when near aquatic plants
or algae normally suspended in the water, forcing the diver to frequently stop to clean
the grill which is not always possible in safety conditions underwater. A grill placed on
the flow output side would prevent any cords or lines caught in the propeller to be
removed, inhibiting ADV operations. This would frequently distract the diver and cause
him to forget that the greater hazard is represented by the surrounding environment and
diverting the his main focus away from the dive. For the above reasons and, considering
that the propeller is protected by a safety clutch, we believe that the natural behaviour of
being careful not to place hands or other body parts between propeller blades is safer
for the diver (who in correct use, is always behind the propeller) than being distracted by
cleaning and untangling any objects from the grills around the propeller.
Entanglement and cut hazards
Do not insert any object or body part inside the flow duct, that could
obstruct the rotating propeller blades. When in use, besides the hand
on the trigger, a safety distance of at least 40 cm must be maintained
between the diver’s body and the propeller assembly.
A CAP OR OTHER HAIR RESTRICTION DEVICE MUST BE WORN BY DIVERS
WITH LONG HAIR. LONG HAIR MAY BECOME ENTANGLE IN THE PROPELLER IN
THE EVENT OF IMPROPER USE.
ALSO BE CAREFUL OF ANY OBJECTS SUCH AS FISHING LINES, DIVING
EQUIPMENT, FLOATING TOYS OR ANYTHING ELSE THAT MAY COME NEAR THE
PROPELLER.
PROTECTIVE GLOVES MUST ALWAYS BE WORN
Crushing risk
Be careful not to place fingers between the two parts when closing the
maid body or head cap.
NEVER LEAVE THE ADV UNATTENDED ESPECIALLY NEAR
CHILDREN OR AMATEURS. ALWAYS TURN IT OFF BEFORE
EXITING THE WATER AND DISCONNECT THE BATTERY AS
SOON AS POSSIBLE
(see previous chapters).
