 Deployment Instructions

2016 Bambi MAX Service Manual

Models 1518-3542 

(Version E)

We Engineer Solutions

For this style of head, if using a swivel hook, we recommend that you always operate in the locked position
to assure that the ballast is always facing forward in flight.

In some cases, where the cargo hook is too large for the standard shackle, a ring larger than the shackle can
be used.

Important Note

If you are using a swivel with an electrical connection, then it is acceptable for the Bambi MAX
to  be  flown  without  the  ballast  facing  forward.    The  Bambi  MAX  has  been  tested  with  some
aerospace swivel arms and performs very well despite rotating in flight.  The swivel also prevents
the suspension lines from twisting up after dipping the Bambi MAX.

Warning

When a ring is used to turn the bucket 90 degrees, choose a ring that is the same size as the shackle
on the head.    

Ring not supplied.  Please use a load rated link.
