PARAJET ZENITH PARAMOTOR

OWNERS INSTRUCTION & SAFETY MANUAL :: V2.2 :: NOV 2014

Weight-shift harness 

adjustment

The Parajet paramotor harness is a mid/
low hang point system. Parajet has always 
been a strong advocate of the mid/low 
hang point attachment and it has been a 
permanent feature throughout their range 
of paramotors.

Parajet’s innovative design offers 
improved wing feedback and an optimised 
thrust line while removing the normal 
swing or rocking motion found under 
throttle.

This combination of mid/low hang point 
attachment and articulated pivot arms 
culminates in the ability for the pilot to 
control direction without the ongoing 
control input. Known as weight-shift, 
this dynamic feature works through the 
pilot’s weight effecting the orientation 
of the pivot arms, which in turn provides 
input into the wing. Weight-shift enables 
pilots to emanate the agile characteristics 
of free-flight with manoeuvrability so 
precise, that the paramotor feels like an 
extension of their body.

To achieve the 

best flying characteristics of the 
harness it is important that you 
spend time to fully understand the 
adjustment system and set it up for 
your optimum weight setting. Failure 
to do this accurately will result in 
poor handling, an uncomfortable 
flying experience and could lead to 
a potentially hazardous accident.

The harness should be adjusted to suit 
both your physique and flying style. It is 
important to adjust it correctly to ensure 
you can easily slide into the sitting 
position after take-off.

While we have endeavoured to provide 
concise and accurate instructions for 
harness adjustment, we recommend that 
these be tested before your first flight by 
hanging in a simulator with the aid of a 
qualified paramotor instructor.

Due to the dynamic nature of the harness, 
additional fine-tuning of adjustments 
maybe required during your first few 
flights to ensure optimum comfort.

NOTE: 

The above pilot weights are for 

reference and as a starting point only. We 
highly recommend you undertake a hang-
test with a qualified instructor to finalise 
your preferred settings before flight.

Adjusting the harness

offset pins

The Parajet paramotor harness is shipped 
with the offset pins already attached to 
the pivot arms. Always ensure the offset 
pins are installed on the correct side of 
the pivot arm for your engine.

To adjust the offset pins, unfasten 
the 6mm attachment bolts from the 
pivot arm. 

Locate the offset pin to the desired 
position on the pivot arm based 
on your weight range (see guide 
above).

Secure the offset pin in place using 
the  attachment bolts, tightened to 
20 Nm.

Adjusting the harness straps

The Parajet paramotor harness has been 
designed to offer maximum adjustment to 
give you many hours of comfort, freeing 
you up to enjoying your flying. The harness 
should be adjusted to suit your physique 
and flying style. It is important to adjust 
the harness correctly to ensure you can 
easily slide into the sitting position after 
take-off. Before making any adjustments, 
loosen all straps and webbing.

Leg Straps

Correct adjustment of the leg straps 
enables you to easily deploy the seatboard 
and reach the sitting position after take-
off without using your hands. In the 
standing position, use the quick-release 
buckle to secure each strap around the 
thigh. Symmetrically adjust the leg straps 
using the handle loops so that they fit 
comfortably without being tight.

Waist Strap

The waist strap adjusts to give you 
a variable  level of movement within 
the harness. The waist strap may also 
be adjusted in flight according to the 
conditions; for example, it may be 
tightened in turbulent air and flown at a 
looser setting in less turbulent conditions 
to allow for easier weight shift.
