Dudek VOX-25S, User Manual

Page: 18 / 36

All rapid descent techniques should be practised in smooth air and with
sufficient height! Full stalls and spins are to be avoided as wrong recovery
procedures, irrespective of the type of paraglider, may have dangerous
consequences!
BY FAR THE BEST TECHNIQUE IS TO FLY CORRECTLY AND SAFELY,
SO YOU NEVER HAVE TO DESCEND RAPIDLY!
8. Looking after your Paraglider.
Looking after your canopy correctly will prolong the life of your Dudek VOX.
STORAGE
Store the paraglider in a dry space away from chemicals and UV light.
Never pack up or store the glider wet. This shortens the life of the cloth.
Wing gets wet also while it just lays on a green grass in sunlight. Always dry
glider thoroughly before any packing or storage.
To avoid paraglider fabric waste, don not pack it too tight.
While drying never expose your paraglider to direct sunlight.
Please note that if you play often with your wing on a field or a small hill,
fabric of your paraglider will waste. It is caused by frequent rising up and
falling down your glider and dragging it in on a surface.
CLEANING
Clean the paraglider with water and a soft sponge. Do not use any
chemicals or spirits for cleaning, as these can permanently damage the
cloth.
REPAIR
Repairs should only be carried out by the manufacturer, authorised
distributor or authorised workshops.
DETERIORATION: A FEW TIPS!
The Dudek VOX is mainly made of NYLON, cloth which, like any synthetic
material, deteriorates through excessive exposure to UV.
