IMPORTANT -> carried out inspections
1)
Before you carry out your own tests and/ or repairs on your paraglider, we ask you to
carefully read the following pages attentively. You inform yourself about the terms and
conditions of a two-year examination/ check manually and carried out by yourself.
2)
According to the new DHV regulation, the customer (glider owner) can carry out the 2-
year inspection of the paraglider with his own responsibility with the help of the
inspection instructions and all necessary equipment and documents. The paraglider does
not have to be sent to the manufacturer for it
3)
The 2-year inspection/ check may only be carried out personally by the paraglider
owner if he/ she meets the requirements, or by the manufacturer and his authorized
inspection bodies. Contact and advise with the manufacturer for any authorized test
centres/ dealerships
4)
The owner of the glider must be aware of the responsibility that he assumes with a
personally and manually carried out 2-year inspection. The single-handed 2-year check is
only legally effective if it is confirmed after the test with the date, printed name (in
capital letters) and signature on or next to the seal of approval
5)
Packing interval for rescue equipment: Repacking every 12 months. Permissible
operating time: 10 years with an annual inspection
6)
You should inform your insurer in good time/ advance about the legal effects of your
own two-year review and check
7)
An inspection is only valid if the inspection report is completely filled out. Also inform
yourself about possible changes to the inspection instructions from the manufacturer
before executing the check
8)
Important: If the necessary expenses/ resources for the maintenance check are
insufficient or cannot be made entirely (see necessary equipment and documents), the
glider should be sent to the manufacturer
