After care
To clean the body of Trident use mild detergents (dish soap works) diluted in freshwater and a soft, clean cloth.
Dielectric grease can be used to protect the tether connector pins.
WD-40 or other hydrophobic spray can be used to remove particles and moisture from inside the moving parts
of the motors.

Maintenance & care
37.
Leave the tether connected to protect the contacts for now.
Immediately after a dive, thoroughly rinse and/or submerge Trident in freshwater. The tether, tether reel, and
topside (with USB cover in place) can all be rinsed in this way.
Remove the rear motor covers with a #1 Phillips screwdriver and flush both motors with freshwater. Make
sure there is no foreign material in this area such as seaweed or sand.
Flush the vertical motor. No cover removal is necessary.
Towel dry Trident and remove the tether to turn off Trident and carefully dry the tether connector. Make sure the
connector and connector port stay dry and free from sand and grit.
Allow any excess water to drain completely by holding Trident vertical with the camera facing up.
Make sure Trident is completely dry before storage. If you must travel immediately, make sure to open the
carrying case and motor covers as soon as you arrive at your destination to allow everything to dry adequately.
