Operating instructions Kite
(As of April 2009)
General
With the Kite you have purchased a very powerful kingposted device of the newest
generation with integrated swivel tips. The perfect sail position, the low weight and the
balanced flight characteristics of the Kite will make you delight. The structural elasticity
of the device was designed so that even with fully strained VG good controllability is
maintained. That mediates in the fast gliding in the crowd, or close to the slope a secure
feeling. At the start a spring system integrated in the cross tube clamps the lower
sidewires and thus facilitates the alignment of the device before starting.
The classic structure of the Kite with aluminum tubes and steel cable suspensions has
proven itself for decades in hanggliding. Everything opens up to check any damage
well and easily, and the first official check is only due after 60 months.
Thanks to many clever construction details the set up and break down of this glider is
exemplary simple, and without effort.
Before the first time set-up, it is necessary to read this manual thoroughly.
The enclosed “Air sport equipment certificate” is part of this manual.
Assembly from the short pack of 3.8 m. (Combi cover bag long / short required,
