18 STORAGE
When the glider is not in use, the glider should be stored in a cool, dry place. A wet glider
should first be dried (out of direct sunlight). Protect the glider against sunlight (UV
radiation). When on the hill keep the glider covered or in the bag. Never store or transport
the glider near paint, petrol or any other chemicals.
Do not leave your paraglider in the trunk of a car or exposed to the sun.
Temperatures on a hot summer’s day in a closed environment: car, etc. can easily reach
over 60ºC
At these temperatures Nylon permanently changes its characteristics which may alter the
behavior and shape of the wing.
It will cause permanent damage to the paraglider, rendering it non-airworthy. APCO’s
warranty will not be applicable.
19 DAMAGE
Using spinnaker repair tape (for non-siliconized cloth) can repair tears in the sail (up to
5cm). A professional repairer should repair greater damage.
20 GENERAL ADVICE
A qualified person or agent of the company should check the glider every year.
The glider is carefully manufactured and checked by the factory. Never make changes to
the canopy or the lines. Changes can introduce dangerous flying characteristics and will
not improve flying performance.
Do not put the glider in direct sunlight when not necessary. In order to protect the glider
during transportation or waiting time we recommend one of our lightweight storage bags.
If you have any doubts about flying conditions - do not begin.
If you have any questions, please contact your dealer or us.
Lastly, be equipped with a certified emergency parachute and helmet on every flight.
