Polini Motori and the distributor decline any and all responsibility
whatsoever - either direct or indirect - for the use of the engine,
above all in the case the engine is modified or manumitted by
third parties. Polini Motori doesn’t assume responsibility for
damages caused by little servicing or wrong assembly, excluding
the pieces from the warranty. Any technical modification may be
introduced by the buyer, who assumes all the responsibilities for
possible damages; spare parts for any modification are not under
warranty. We advice you that any engine modification made by
the buyer or the removal of original parts may make the engine
dangerous to be used!
The user is invited to respect and follow what written in the use
and maintenance manual for his own and third parties safety.
When you use this engine you are making a very dangerous
action, so you may have the maximum care before, during and
after flying, in order to avoid serious accidents. We invite you to
be careful to prevent accidents or damages and to keep always in
mind that:
- the engine can’t solve all the flight problems, so it is important
to avoid dangerous maneuverings. One of the most common
errors is to fly over zones where it is not allowed to land; you
have always to take into consideration the possibility of engine
failure or the need to make an emergency landing. It is forbid-
den to fly over built-up areas, urban centers, to drop things or
liquids when flying.
- the lack of engine power can disturb the flight stability: the
engine could stop suddenly and you may be obliged to make an
emergency landing on a safety area.
Before using it, for your own and third parties safety, it is neces-
sary to be sure that the weather conditions are good, or anyway
adequate for a safety flight, in order not to compromise the good
engine work. Rain or unfavorable weather conditions, besides
being dangerous, could also damage the engine, prejudicing its
normal working. It is not allowed to use the paramotor when
raining or with strong wind. Only fly if the wind speed, its direc-
tion and the conditions grant a safety flight. It is important to
check the weather forecasting for the hours close to the flight
and to know the taking off and landing areas.
Because of the
risks inherent to the paramotor use, and the flight,
Polini doesn’t give any warranty against accidents,
breakings, injuries or death. To fly with a paramotor
always needs great attention. Be aware that you fly at
your risk. Before every use check the good condition of
your paramotor. This engine is not covered by any
responsibility insurance. By using it you automatically
assume all the risks inherent the paramotor sport or
the personal responsibility towards damages to
yourself or to third parties, accidents, injuries or death.
We invite you to carefully read the instructions contai-
ned in this manual since they are helpful for a better
knowledge of the products and the use itself and useful
to prevent and contain the risks.
