11 MAINTENANCE
The skywalk PEPPER CROSS LIGHT rescue should be repacked at least every 12 months,
as detailed in the packing instructions. We always recommend that this rescue parachute
is inspected and repacked by a trained professional repacker. Additional inspections should
be performed if there is any suspicion of damage or undue wear.
The rescue parachute has to be checked after deployment by a professional. Always seek
professional advice whenever in doubt.
The materials used in the rescue have been carefully selected for maximum durability.
Nevertheless, maintaining your rescue following the guidelines below will extend its lifetime.
It is recommended that a rescue is replaced after 10 years, even if it has never been used.
12 CARE
> Avoid direct sunlight with the associated UV exposure, as well as heat and moisture.
> Store your harness and rescue equipment in your rucksack when you are not using it.
> Keep your paraglider equipment in a cool, dry place and not near solvents, greases,
acids, oil and paints.
> Always dry your reserve chute if it gets wet in a well-ventilated, shady place.
> If the reserve chute comes in contact with salt water, rinse it several times with fresh
water.
> A soiled reserve chute can be cleaned with lukewarm water. If necessary, mild neutral
soap can be used, but do not rub the material too much.
> If the material has stains or mold, it must be sent to the manufacturer for inspection
and possible repairs, or to an approved maintenance facility for rescue equipment
as the strength may be impaired.
> If the reserve chute has to be stored for a long time, then it is best to store it open and
loosely rolled up.
13 REPAIR
Any repairs should only be carried out by the manufacturer or by an approved agent.
This will ensure that the correct materials and repair techniques are used.
14 DISPOSAL
When choosing materials, skywalk places high value on environmental compatibility and
the highest quality control. Should your rescue someday no longer be flyable, remove all
metal parts such as screw shackle. All remaining parts can be turned in at a recycling
center. The metallic parts can be turned in at a metals recycling center.
The best solution is to send your retired skywalk rescue directly to us. We will then take
care of recycling it.
