wash the glider immediately with clean water.
Avoid contact of fabric with sweat.
Do not pull the glider over rough ground; his can damage the cloth at the contact points.
Do not pack the glider too tightly.
The total line length documents for each size of the RISE3 are found in the annex.

Checking the Glider
Even with the best possible care, each glider is subjected to a certain aging which can affect the
flying characteristics, performance and safety.
A thorough inspection of all components, including checking suspension line strength, line
geometry, riser geometry and permeability of the canopy material is mandatory.
2-Years Inspection:
After 24 months or 150 flight hours (whichever occurs first) the glider must be inspected. This
check will be made by the manufacturer, importer, distributor or other authorized persons.
The checking must be proven by a stamp on the certification sticker on the glider as well in the
service book.
In the event that a glider is NOT checked according to this schedule, the airworthiness
warranty of the glider is invalidated.
More information about servicing
and inspections can be found in the document “Inspection
Information” available on the AIRDESIG N website www.ad-gliders.com
Trim-Check:
After around 30 to 50 flight hours we recommend doing a trim-check
– only lines are measured
and if needed trimmed.
In general all kind of materials and all kind of paragliders are affected by forces and other
influences. Especially within the first hours of flights the glider and its materials are setting.
That’s why we recommend doing a trim -check to ensure the best performance and speed on
your wing.
Our experiences have shown us that after this setting time (after around 30-50 hours) lines are
not moving or changing length anymore.
Ground-handling times must be multiplied by factor of 2 due to the greater contact with
abrasive surfaces.
Respecting nature and environment:
Finally, we would ask each pilot to take care of nature and our environment. Respect nature
and the environment at all times but most particularly at take-off and landing places.
Respect others and paraglide in harmony with nature.
Do not leave marked tracks and do not leave rubbish behind.
Do not make unnecessary noise and respect sensitive biological areas.
The materials used on a paraglider should be recycled.
Please send old AIRDESIGN gliders back to AIRDESIGN offices. We will undertake to recycle the
glider.
