INSPECTION
REPAIRS
Your paratrike wing has strictly to follow the required inspection intervals. The first
inspection check is mandatory completing 24 months or 100 hours flights, whichever
comes first.
After the first inspection any paratrike wing must be checked yearly or at each 100
hours flights, whichever comes first. In any of these inspections may occur that a shorter
period for the next inspection will be defined (f. ex. 6 months or 50 hours flights).
Without performing the mandatory inspections, the paratrike wing loses its certification
and the warranty becomes null and void.
After any kind of accident or a long period without use: sent the paratrike wing for
inspection to an authorized dealer’s workshop or to the manufacturer. It’s for your own
good.
Minor repairs (see below) you could do by yourself, but all other repairs must only be
made by an authorized dealer’s workshop or the manufacturer.
Repairs must only be made by an authorized dealer’s workshop or to the manufacturer.
In case of minor repairs you are receiving with your paratrike wing a basic repair kit. It
contains adhesive labels in case of minor tears and quick link sealing.
Small tears up to 10 cm away from the line suspension points may be fixed by yourself.
Beyond that the maintenance must be made by an authorized dealer’s workshop or the
manufacturer.
-
Clean the spot where the adhesive label will be applied with a humid cloth.
-
The adhesive label has to be at least 2,5 cm larger than the tear.
-
Round the edges, otherwise the adhesive label could loosen after the aplication.
-
Apply on both sides of the tear.
In case of a line crack we recommend to contact your dealer, an authorized dealer’s
workshop or the manufacturer. After the repair test the paratrike wing on the ground
and check if everything is alright.
Along with your kit you’re get sealing for the quick links. Don’t leave your risers without
them, because they avoid the movement of the screw nut, making it impossible to open.
