MAINTENANCE & CHECKS
1) Advice on Maintanance
The life of your paraglider depends largely on the care with which you maintain
and use it.
Avoid dropping it on its top surface or on its leading edge during inflation and
ground handling.
Don‘t drag it across the ground when moving it.
Don‘t expose it unnecessarily to sunlight.
Choose a technique that doesn‘t damage the stiffeners and that doesn‘t
crease the internal structure excessively. To maximise the life of your glider
we do not recommend the use of stuff sacks: the abrasion of the material will
decrease the life expectancy of the fabric – in particular its internal structure.
Always use the inner bag to avoid any direct contact with the metalwork on
the harness and the rucksack.
Never store your paraglider when it is damp. If immersed in sea water then
rinse in fresh water. Do not use any detergents. Dry your paraglider away from
direct light in a dry and well-aired place.
Empty any foreign bodies from your paraglider regularly, for example sand,
stones or animal or vegetable matter which may eventually decay.
2) Checks
The paraglider has undergone a series of tests during the production process
before delivery.
Periodic Checks & Repairs:
It is recommended that the paraglider be checked regularly or if there is
a change in its behaviour. Have your wing additionally checked if you notice
any damage.
3) Guarantee
EOLE is guaranteed for two years against any manufacturing fault from the date
of purchase.
The guarantee does not cover:
Damage caused by misuse, neglect of regular maintanance, or if the glider is
overloaded or misused.
