Warning:
Do not move stopper below safe-line
marked on locking tube.
NOTE: Locking the Bar Stopper below this
line will prevent the kite from depowering
and could lead to serious injury or death.
THE R3 FORCE TENSIONER SYSTEM
The tensioning system allows the user to depower their kite when there is no tension on the
back lines.
To keep the tensioning system free from sand and debris, rinse it regularly. This can be
achieved by simply dunking the bar in the water as you start your session.
Storing the bar with the tensioning system fully depowered will increase the life of the
springs and prepare you for your next launch.
To increase the life of your lines and bar floats, flush the floats out with fresh water regu-
larly. To do this:
�
Make sure the winder is set to minimum power by winding the line all the way out.
�
Remove the spring cap from the top of the bar float (1) & (2).
�
Flush the float from the base with fresh water so that it flows out the top of the float (3).
�
Replace the spring cap in the top of the bar float.
