The pulling-up help shortens the A-risers during take-off as long as the paraglider is behind
the push rods. During biking the stainless steel hook of the orange rising line can be hooked
into the eyelet of the push rod, and the rising line can be shortened by pulling the 6mm
bungee cord out of the rear side of the push rod. This bungee cord has a plastic hook which
can also be put into the eyelet of the white steel cables.
For flying this rubber cord must be unhooked and the rising line
must be completely pulled out of the push rod. The stainless steel
carbine has to be hooked into the A-line carbine. Please check that
the riser is running free! This means, that it doesn’t run accidentally
around the throttle cable or so.
The throttle cable must be outside the white steel cable during flight!
It is more comfortable to unbutton the brake line handle from the
risers and to put it over the push rod before taking off. There you can easily pick it up after
taken seat and having buckled up.
The recovery system can be mounted on the safety belt on the breast
or on the head rest behind the head. Most important is that its handle
can be reached easily. The V-Line is attached into the main carbines
where the paraglider is attached as well. It must run free of other
parts, but it may run under the 8 mm rubber cords which are used to
hold the push rods upright.
The paraglider is hooked into the main carbines so that the A-lines
show to the front and the D-lines to the back, if the risers are in the
upright flight position. This is the same as flying without any motor.
In order to keep the lines sorted we recommend to tape a big plastic
cable binder on to the outside of the cage as shown in the picture.
Then the lines can be clamped into this place.
Take-Off
In this manual we only describe how to operate the Flyke. You should be already familiar
with your motor.
