When the paramotor is running with a damaged, unevenly balanced or not

correctly routed propeller, the gear unit components and rubber parts wear off
very quickly. The gear unit damages due to the use of inadequate, damaged,

unevenly balanced and incorrectly routed propeller are not covered by the
warranty.

6. Pre-flight check-up and adjustments

6.1 Pre-flight paramotor check-up.

Checking up the paramotor before taking off includes obligatory propeller cage mounting
check-up and the gas throttle performance check-up. The propeller check-up means

controlling its mounting and checking for mechanical damages or cracks.



The propeller should rotate steadily, whistles or whizzes indicating blade damage should

not be heard.

Never put your hands into the propeller space when the engine is on, even if

the propeller does not rotate.

Never turn on the engine without mounted and secured propeller cage.

Never leave the paramotor turned on without supervision, especially with the

gas throttle lying on the ground. If you step on it accidentally it may cause serious
injuries.

•

Check harness, tapes, joints and carbines. Check the condition of all rubber parts of
the paramotor. Check all the accessible screws - whether they are not broken,

missing, loosened. Check the engine power supply system, filter and fuel pipes –
whether there are no leaks that could lead to sucking-in the „fake” air.

•

Check the mounting of the engine, the exhaust system, mounting of the suction
murmur silencer, and pay special attention to the condition of rubber parts.

•

Check the propeller cage ropes, speed ropes and footstool. Make sure that starting
the engine will not cause sucking in other objects by the propeller – i.e. gloves, radio

cables, helmet or loose clothing parts. Make sure that turning the engine on will not
pose any threat to other objects or third party.



Monitoring the engine technical state after each flight is strongly advised. By doing this

you can avoid mistakes during the pre-taking off rush and you can shorten the preparations.
