7.5 Trigger does not function properly
1. Remove dirt or foreign objects from the Trigger by rins-
ing it off with fresh water and / or blowing it out with air
from a low-pressure hose.
2. The Trigger may freeze in frosty weather, causing it to
stick. Place the SEABOB in the water so that frozen com-
ponents can thaw off.
A damaged or sticking Trigger should be repaired or re-
placed immediately. Contact the manufacturer or your
specialist dealer.
7.4 Impeller does not turn (no thrust)
Check whether any foreign objects such as aquatic
plants, pieces of rope or plastic wrappers have entered
the SEABOB jet channel and jammed the impeller or sta-
tor. If this is the case, proceed as follows:
1. Switch off the SEABOB, take it out of the water and
place it on a dry and sturdy surface that will not dam-
age any components.
Never attempt to remove foreign objects while the
SEABOB is in the water and / or switched on. Never reach
in between the protective lamellas of the jet channel.
Rotating parts may cause injury.
2. Always ensure that the SEABOB has been switched
off completely (Off mode) to prevent inadvertent acti-
vation of the motor, causing injury.
Tip: An active and connected charger is required to
switch the device to the Off mode.
3. Remove foreign objects from the jet channel, stator
and impeller by rinsing the components with fresh
water (from a low-pressure source such as a garden
hose or watering can) and / or blowing them out with
air from a low-pressure hose.
4. Switch on the SEABOB with the charger (see Chapter
5.3.5 "Off mode") and check that the motor and im-
peller can move freely.
Never run the motor out of the water for longer than
approx. 10 seconds. The seals of the motor and the hard-
coated motor shaft are designed exclusively for use in
the water. Operation out of the water can cause over-
heating due to the lack of water to cool the device, there-
by causing irreparable damage to the seals and motor
shaft. Danger of short circuit!
Should the impeller still fail to turn, contact the manufac-
turer or your specialist dealer.
