Upturn.
Speed up.
Slow speed riding (propeller pitch = 2 or 3 ; throttle position = 4 - 6)
Making turns using the body to help steer is not as effective when riding at low-speed.
To make a left or right turn, lean the upper body while in an up upright angle / position in the direction of the turn,
and the SAV-7 itself will begin to move in that direction.

Pay attention of
clearing ears !
Riding at the water's surface is also possible with the SAV-7. By wearing equipment designed for skin-
diving (mask, snorkel, and fins, and appropriate amount of weight on the hips), the diver can easily move around
the water's surface.

When riding at slow-speed, it is necessary to adjust
your buoyancy slightly using a buoyancy
compensator

.
In doing so, the diver's legs will sink due to the
weight of the SAV-7, making the upper body rises
up slightly.
In order to balance out the upward force caused
by the lowering of the scooter and the diver's
negative buoyancy, the revolution speed of the
propeller and the angle of the scooter must be
adjusted.
