Installation Requirements
Before a certified FAA Rigger or foreign equivalent begins installation, be sure the risers, toggles,
freebag, pilot chute, harness, container and other items are compatible with this reserve canopy.
All components must fit and work properly. The use of incompatible components makes it illegal
to assemble the system and voids the manufacturer’s responsibility.
10.11.
Installation Procedure
The connections between the canopy and the container system consist of four links and 2
steering lines.
At the factory, the links are assembled onto a card identifying each link and steering line. This is
to be used as a guide only. It is the responsibility of the assembling/inspecting rigger to verify
that each link is connected to the proper riser and each steering line is connected to the proper
steering toggle. Before securing the links fully, check line continuity. Ensure that each line
group passes through the correct slider grommet and there are no twists, tangles, or knots in
the lines.
To lock the metal connector links, tighten the barrels completely by hand, until the thread is fully
covered. Then tighten them with an additional ¼ turn using an adjustable wrench or similar
tool. Mark the position of the barrel. This mark can be used in future inspections to insure that
the barrel has not loosened.
It is permissible to substitute connector links as long as they are compatible with the container,
all four connector links are of the same type, and they are all certified for use under TSO C23d
to operational limits exceeding the operational limits of the reserve parachute. If substitute links
are used, they need to be installed in accordance with the instructions of the manufacturer of
the links.
