4.
Take the medium ring (2) and thread it through
the harness ring (1). Bend the riser to make
the medium ring meet the smallest ring (3)
sewn in above.
Proceed with caution to avoid riser
entanglement and/or twisting.
5.
Thread the smallest ring (3) through the
medium ring (2) only, and place it on top of the
medium ring.

6.
Thread the closing loop (4) through the
smallest ring (3) only, and then through the
ring (5) to the other side of the riser.
7.
Thread the closing loop (4) through the eye in
the end section of the protective casing (7) of
the yellow cables (8).
The eye of the casing shall be arranged in a
manner allowing for the yellow cable to remain
on top.
8.
Place the yellow cable in the closing loop and
pull until resistance is felt, taking care to bend
it as little as possible.

9.
Place the remaining section of the yellow
cable in the pouch (13) on the rear riser.
When placing the cable in the pouch make
sure that the cable was threaded into the
pouch stiffener, not under the pouch (13).
ATTENTION!
When assembling new risers and placing the
yellow cable in the pouch, pierce the tape on
which the protective casing is mounted with the
cable.

10.
Repeat the procedure for the other riser.
ATTENTION!
Upon finishing assembly, check whether the
risers and suspension lines are leading to the
main parachute canopy as designed and free
of any twists and/or interweaving, and whether
the system itself has been assembled correctly.
3.2.
RELEASE SYSTEM MAINTENANCE CHECK
The release system material has capacity for “shape recall” if kept in one position for an extended period. This is why the
three-ring system should be disconnected, “loosened”, and reassembled every 3 months. Should the procedure not be
followed, it may be difficult to disconnect risers from the harness under little tension during a malfunction (such as a snivel, or
prolonged canopy deployment).
