When using the product there is always the risk of unpredictable overstress in flight, for example caused by flying
conditions or a surprise bump in the air. In rare cases the product could suffer damage. This is especially
disappointing in that, usually, neither the manufacturer nor the pilot can be held responsible. Light products tend to
be more susceptible to damage due to overstress.
Info
In the event of damage, please contact your dealer and they will contact us. We strive to
be accommodating in such cases and work together to find the best possible solution. This
is individual and depends on the assessment of each case.
8.5. Repairs harness
You should never carry out harness repairs yourself. The various seams are prepared with the greatest precision.
Only the manufacturer or an authorised Service Centre should carry out repairs with original materials.
8.6. Removing & replacing components
Legpad nitinol wire
The nitinol wire is located in a pocket under the legpad and helps to stretch the legpad for comfort. It can be
replaced if damaged. To remove the wire, grasp it with two fingers and pull it out slowly (A). When installing,
squeeze the circular wire into an oval (B) and push it into the pocket on one side. Always check that the connection
is on the outside of the legpad (C). Now bend the nitinol wire so you can push it into the pocket on the other side
(D).
Info
Check the nitinol wire from time to time for kinks or deformations.
8.7. Disposal
Environmental protection plays an important role in the selection of materials and the manufacture of an ADVANCE
product. We use only non-toxic materials and fabrics that are subjected to continuous quality and environmental
impact assessments. When your equipment reaches the end of its useful life, please remove all metal parts
