>> Installing the front mounted reserve parachute
For the following procedure :
- Connect the reserve parachute handle to the POD.
- Pack your reserve parachute inside your reserve parachute container.
- Connect the reserve container to the harness.
Carefully and exactly follow the installation procedure provided and recommended by the front mounted reserve parachute container manufacturer.
WARNING !
If you have a front mounted
reserve parachute setup, be
sure to guide the speed-bar
line between the risers and
the harness, not to hinder
the rescue parachute’s
extraction/deployment
sequence.
Check the completed installation during
a hang-test.
Have the installation checked by a professional outfit.
Conduct an extraction test every six ( 6 ) months to assure proper system functionality.
Note : conducting and extraction test does not imply deploying the reserve para-
chute which will stay inside its POD.
