To reinstall the protector in the harness, proceed as follows:
1. Remove the back pressure valve from the valve base.
2. Make sure that there is almost no air left in the protector.
3. Install the protector by sliding it all the way inside the harness between the
zipper compartment and the outer wall.
4. Find the valve base inside the harness and then insert it into the opening
of the zip compartment.
5. Fix the back pressure valve on the fixing loop and fill the protector halfway.
6. Bring the protector into the shape of the outer shell and make sure that it
is not twisted inside or on the valve base. Fill the protector completely and
check the position of the protector in the harness again.
8 FLYING SAFE
PREFLIGHT CHECK
It is important to check all paragliding equipment thoroughly before every
flight to see if it has any defects. Also check the harness after long flights and
after long storage.
Check thoroughly that:
> no visible damage to the harness or carabiners is present that can affect air-
worthiness.
> the reserve parachute container is correctly closed and is connected to the
harness, and that the splints are threaded completely through the loops and
that the rescue handle is correctly mounted.
> all buckles, straps and zippers are shut and secured.
> the parakite/paraglider is correctly hooked to the harness and that both
carabiners are correctly closed and secured.
> all pockets are closed and that no loose items are hanging around.
> your backpack doesn´t inferfere with the harness closing system.
> the leg loops are closed before you launch!
DO NOT LAUNCH IF YOU FIND ANY DEFECTS, EVEN SMALL
ONES! IF YOU FIND ANY SIGNS OF DAMAGE OR ABNORMAL
WEAR AND TEAR, CONTACT YOUR FLIGHT SCHOOL OR FLARE
DIRECTLY.
BEHAVIOR IN THE EVENT OF A RESERVE CHUTE DEPLOYMENT
> Locate the rescue handle in front of you and hold it tightly with one hand.
> Pull the handle firmly away from the harness in a continuous and forward
movement to release the split pins and pull out the reserve chute.
> Make sure that you throw the reserve chute in the deployment bag into free
airspace.
> If possible, throw it in the opposite direction of any rotational movement
and let go of the handle!!
> Once the reserve chute is open, try to keep it from tangling and swinging.
It is best use the B-, C- or D-lines or the brake lines to pull the glider
symmetrically toward you.
> When you land, straighten up as much as possible and use the parachute
landing fall (PLF) technique to minimize the risk of injury.
