PRE FLIGHT CHECK.
Check the tightness of all bolts and screws on the engine. Nothing should be loose in flight as it can come off and go through
the propeller causing extensive damage.
Check the welding especially where the engine is fixed
Check that the safety net is fastened tightly, and that the paragliders speed trim system does not have spare lines hanging,
as these can get into the propeller.
Check the condition the anti-vibe rubber mounts
After flying, clean the engine and the propeller with a cloth (it’s the best way to find abnormalities)
BEFORE STARTING IT IS IMPORTANT TO DO A
SECURITY TAPE TO LOCK THE PROPELLER IN THE COLD START.
ONLY FOR ENGINES WITH CLUTCH
A new security measure to avoid the possibility of the engine falling towards
us when starting in cold giving gas.
We start with the covers of the propellers on, as the tape has been stitched on
to the covers (fig 11) and its function is to block the propeller (fig 12) should we
not give enough gas when the engine of transmission with centrifugal clutch.
Has already started.
ATTENTION: DO NOT USE THIS TECHNIQUE TO WARM UP THE ENGINE
This security measure is intended above all to minimize risk and nerves of those
who are new to the paraengine and aren’t familiar with the manual startup.
It is a good option to get used to using this system which would also block
the propeller in case we do not notice that the roulette of the gas lever is
blocked (1) or that the gas lever does not return correctly
(remember that
it is very high importance to methodically perform these checks before
starting)
We must fix the Ribbon on the principal outside ring of the frame so that the
propeller moves as little as possible See photo. Remind you that all engines with
centrifugal pivoted clutch turn to the right depending on the position of flight.
There are other techniques that exist in the world of the paramotor for long time
for this purpose. We have incorporated it as simple and efficient without using
other elements.
This TAPE (fig 13) is included in all
the PAP engines with big cylinder to
counteract the engine torque effect .
