12. Maintenance and care
Rinse the scooter with fresh water after every dive, especially after using it
in salt water or brackish water. The outside of the scooter can be cleaned
with mild soapy water. A toothbrush can also be used to get into
inaccessible places. After being used several times the aluminium housing
should be sprayed with a thin viscous silicone spray. This closes the fine
pores and protects against dirt and corrosion.
The propeller should be removed after using in salt water. While watching
from shroud side, turn the prop nut clockwise to release it. Wash the
propeller and drive shaft with fresh water and spray with a silicone spray.
After longer use, the spring of the sliding ring seal should be removed and
its O-rings greased.
