Keep fingers, hair, loose clothing and other objects away from VideoRay's propellers and other
pinch points.
Monitor weather and sea conditions and heed any warnings or alerts.
Be aware of and follow any legal ordinances or regulations in your area regarding operation of
vessels and underwater equipment in the water.
Before setting up for or commencing any dive, it is a good practice to make sure there are no
hazards to people or the equipment on land or in the water. If there are other people in the water
nearby, you should advise them that you are going to be operating the ROV. As the owner/operator, it
is your responsibility to ensure the safety of those around you as well as that of the equipment and

topics.
