ADJUSTMENTS
5
ENGLISH
All adjustments can be made in the air, but it is a good idea to sus-
pend the harness first to make the initial adjustments.
Shoulder straps – these should be ad-
justed whilst standing with the harness
buckles engaged so that they are comfort-
ably snug. If the shoulder straps fall off
your shoulders, adjust by tightening the
tabs (pulling them down). If they restrict
you from standing up straight, release the
tabs.
Lumber support – Adjust so that it is
comfortable for your style of flying.
Fully tightened will give an upright posi-
tion, for a more reclined (supine) position
release the lumber support straps.
Chest strap – The maximum setting is
44cm which is ideal for most pilots and
is the distance Ozone recommends. It is
possible to reduce further by tightening
the strap in the air.
Under seat Support -There is a strap
under the seat and between the legs that
when tightened, adds to the comfort of
the harness in flight. This should be left
completely slack before take off so that
it does not restrict your run. It can be
tightened after take off when you are fully
established in flight and free from other
traffic and/or turbulent air.
SPEED SYSTEM
To fit a speed bar, route the lines though the pulley and then the
guide loop (located on the side of the leg support) ensuring that the
line passes on the outside of all straps and adjustments.
Ensure the speed bar lines are of equal
length, double check that they are not too
short as this may inadvertently activate
the speed system when under tension in
the air.
Check on the ground before flying. Once in
the air, and when it is safe to do so, check
for alignment (speed bar lines are of equal
length), that you can reach full speed and
that the system operates smoothly.
RESERVE PARACHUTE
The Oxygen1 does not have an integral reserve parachute container.
To fit a reserve parachute you must use a separate front mounted
reserve container (not supplied). The reserve bridles should be at-
tached to the main karabiners, use the same karabiners as used for
the paraglider risers, using extra karabiners for the reserve bridles
can put extra load and strain on the suspension points during deploy-
ment and is therefore not recommended.
CONNECTING TO THE WING
The Oxygen1 harness can only be attached to the risers of your
paraglider via karabiners using the main hang points. The suspension
points are coloured RED to be easily identified, there are no other
hang points available.
