9. Repacking of reserves
The following tips are only brief suggestions.
Please contact the harness/container manufac-
turer for advice and detailed packing instruc-
tions for riggers (packers or equivalent) in
relation to the CYPRES AAD installation and
rigging specifications.
General:
The reserve closing loop must be under tension,
caused by the pilot chute spring, of no less than
10 pounds (5 kg approximately).
Please check the grommets closely during each
repack.
Grommets with rough edges will ultimately destroy
any loop. Replace damaged grommets immedi-
ately. Use original CYPRES loops/loop material,
pull-ups, and discs when a CYPRES 2 is installed
in the container. Even if you do not have an AAD
in your container, a CYPRES loop will markedly
improve your safety. The use of CYPRES acces-
sories (loops, discs, setups) in combination with
AADs from other brands is prohibited as we have
• Don‘t forget: After water contact shut your
CYPRES 2 off immediately and change the filter.
• Make sure that the reserve closing loop passes
through the cutter’s passing hole.
• The maximum allowed altitude for a civilian
CYPRES is 26,000 feet above sea level.
For civilian CYPRES manufactured or main-
tained after October 2021 the maximum allowed
altitude is 65,000 feet above sea level.
If you need to exceed these hights just give us
a call at 49 2953 98990
Although the maximum allowed altitude for a CYPRES
is 26,000 feet or even higher we recommend strongly
to not jump from higher than 15,000 feet.
There are so many risks increasing so rapidly that it is
not at all worthwhile to accept these risks.
