Using the Sea Scooter for Diving
– Adjusting the Buoyancy
Your sea scooter can be used for diving up to 30 meters but will need to be adjusted for neutral buoyancy. The sea
scooter must never be adjusted for negative buoyancy to avoid it from sinking if accidentally released.
To adjust the neutral buoyancy, follow these instructions.
1.
Make sure the sea scooter Master Switch is in the OFF position.
2. Remove the sea scooter from the water, give a half turn to turn the Latches, remove them
– see Figure 4 –
and remove the Buoyancy Control Chamber.
3. Open the Buoyancy Chamber and add a small amount of rocks or a lead weight
– see Figure 5.
4. Replace the Buoyancy Chamber, Nose Cone and Latches and place the sea scooter in the water. If the sea
scooter is neutrally buoyant it will just float in the water.
5. If the sea scooter sinks, remove rocks until it is neutrally buoyant. If the sea scooter is still positively buoyant
repeat step 3 until it is neutrally buoyant.
CAUTION: If the sea scooter is later used for swimming or
snorkeling be sure to remove the weight from the Buoyancy Chamber
so the sea scooter has positive buoyancy.
