The correct installation of the reserve must essentially be tested by a trial release. Put the harness on, close it
completely and then clip yourself with the AXESS 5 by the two main carabiners into a harness hanger. Then pull
out the reserve as if in flight.
Info
A successful compatibility test carried out by a pilot can greatly increase confidence in the
reserve system.
Operation of the reserve handle must take place in a normal flying position, and work without hindrance, in
accordance with the requirements of this manual. You therefore must be sitting in the harness. If you are not sure
of this procedure you should contact a qualified person or your ADVANCE dealer.
Here are some factors that could make a reserve deployment difficult or impossible:
Reserve too big for the compartment or inner container.
Reserve not packed to the dimensions of the inner container.
Reserve not pulled out with the correct technique. A pull then throw to the side is correct.
The volume of the reserve worked originally in the new harness, but after a repack it has become too big.
Pilot dimensions and arm length may have a significant effect on reserve-throwing success. Small pilots
with short arms can have difficulties.
Conditions such as high G-loading (3G +, as in spiral dive).
Warning
A combination of these factors could make a reserve deployment impossible.
Info
Occasionally reach to the reserve handle after launch to memorize the position.
