6 Diving safety
6.1 Training
The ADV ca be used for both recreatio al a d tech ical divers. I both cases it is
assumed that divers have received ecessary certificatio from qualified boards. I a y
case, ADV use requires specific training that permits fully safe use, taki g full
adva tage of its pote tial. Do ot forget that the greatest risk is mai ly due to the
u derwater e viro me t where it is used.
6.2 Handling c nfigurati n and settings
The ADV is TOW BEHIND type (thus differe t from the so-called “ride o top” ki d) a d
thus ideal use requires the diver to be towed by the ADV by a tow cord (betwee the
scooter a d diver) or by holdi g o to the specific ha dles.
Warning. Restricti g the ADV to the diver i a way that is hard to u tie,
eve by other divers, is strictly prohibited. Quickly aba do i g the ADV
at a y time must be possible.
We highly suggest gloves (better if padded at least 3 mm thick) be wor
whe usi g the ADV. They preve t the diver from i serti g fi gers
betwee the propeller blades a d protect him agai st the surrou di g
e viro me t.
C rrect equipment settings are crucial to divi g safety a d become esse tial whe
divi g with the scooter. Ge erally, equipme t types a d positio s must guara tee perfect
water dy amics a d ot protrude or ha g from the scooter.
The diver’s p siti n should te d to be horizo tal duri g dives (setti gs a d floati g are
always the co seque ce of correct equipme t setti gs a d appropriate trai i g) for safety,
auto omy, scooter speed a d divi g comfort purposes.
Pay the utmost atte tio whe positio i g equipme t, especially
co cer i g: whips, valves, side ta ks, pressure gauges, co soles,
sire s, flashlights a d cables or reels, preve ti g them from ha gi g
a d thus comi g i to co tact with the propeller or accide tally catchi g
o the sea bed or compa io , creati g eve seriously hazard situatio s.

6.3 Hazard us area and residual risks
The propeller is protected by a flow co veyor a d releva t supports. However, it is
exposed o both the suctio a d expulsio sides. Additio al protectio s were ot i stalled
i these areas si ce they would sig ifica tly reduce fluid passage i the co duit, drastically
reduci g propulsio system performa ce.
Catching and cutting risk
Do ot i troduce a y object or body part i the flow co veyor i co tact
with rotati g propeller blades. Except for the ha d o the trigger, keep at
least 40 cm away from the propulsio group duri g use.
Above water, make sure the battery has bee removed before touchi g the propeller.
Back-lumbar injury risk
Above water, use cautio if the vehicle is ma ually lifted i i correct
positio s.
Crushing risk
Whe closi g the hull, be careful ot to place fi gers betwee the two
parts.
6.4 Safety device
There is a torque limiter betwee the e gi e group a d propeller. Whe the resista ce
applied to the propeller exceeds a certai wi di g mome t, it triggers preve ti g the
propeller from co ti ui g to rotate.
The device emits a rhythmic oise that immediately war s its triggeri g. As soo as this
situatio occurs, immediately release the trigger, tur off power usi g the mai switch a d
free the propeller from the foreig object.
Do ot co ti uously ru over 10 seco ds. The torque limiter is
desig ed for emerge cy use a d prolo ged ru i g could cause
damages.
If use co ditio s permit the foreig body to be removed from the propeller duri g the dive
i total safety, remove it. Otherwise, it is best to aba do the ADV a d recover it later.
