21.4. IN CASE OF INTERVENTION OF THE CUT- OFF
In case of intervention of the cut-off system, proceed as follow:
• Follow the SCOOTER opening procedure;
• Disconnect the battery motor power connector;
• Remove tre battery from SCOOTER;
• Leave the battery at rest for at least two hours, minimum time needed to allow the battery to cool down and return
to the charging standby status;
• Connect the battery charging connector to the battery charger;
• Proceed with the recharge as per the battery charger instruction manual.
IMPORTANT NOTE!
It should also be remembered that when the cut off device intervenes, the
SCOOTER inevitably stops working.
This event must in no way be a source of danger for the diver, who will have
planned the diving activity, taking into account that the use of the SCOOTER
cannot be considered as a system to safeguard one's life or to remove oneself
from difficult situations.
SUEX s.r.l. declines all responsibility following the intervention of the cut off
system, in any situation, in dangerous situations or in dives for which the diver
has (at his complete risk) entrusted his return to the surface to the SCOOTER.
The SCOOTER must be considered as an aid to diving and not as a means of
rescue.
21.5. MAIN SWITCH
The main switch, already described earlier in this manual (see chapter "SCOOTER CONTROLS"), plays a main role,
from the point of view of safety, as it separates the battery from the electronic engine control. The switch in the OFF
position prevents the possibility of accidental activation of the SCOOTER.
21.6. MECHANICAL CLUTCH ON THE PROPELLER
See Chapter "Prop lock propeller".
21.7. TRIGGER GUARD
The trigger is imprisoned by a guard that forces the diver to insert a finger in the handle to press the trigger and start
the SCOOTER: in this way the start can only occur after a voluntary action from the user.
21.8. BY PASS DEVICE
The device called "BY PASS" is a device (50) (fig. Below) which electrically connects the battery directly to the electric
motor, excluding any other component normally used for the electric operation of the Scooter: trigger, speed
adjustment, electronic control.
This device is made with the aim of giving the possibility to use the Scooter even
with a possible anomaly to the electronic control or to the command sensor, only
and only in that case. The use of this device is potentially dangerous as, once
activated, it starts the engine continuously and the only possible control is to
switch it off via the main switch or via the same by-pass knob.
Remember again that a specific training course is absolutely essential to be able
to use the Scooter in absolute safety.
Use the by-pass knob ONLY when absolutely necessary.
For the purposes of the operation of the SCOOTER, it is important that the user is
aware of the existence of the Cut-Off, since his intervention determines the
immediate stop of the vehicle.
