PACKING / RE_PACKING INSTRUCTIONS
Folding & Packing should be done by a qualified person.
Airing
The canopy should be inflated, and / or aired by hanging it open for at least 24 hours before inspection and repacking.
Tools
The following items will be useful to make packing easier and neater.
4 x Clamps
1 x Bungee Octopus
1x Line Comb
2 x Tie-down straps
2 x Pull-up lines (if installing into harness or external container – not covered by this manual)
Always count all items before and after packing, to ensure that no items have been packed into the reserve.
Checking the canopy
Prior to actual packing, the parachute must be thoroughly checked and in case any defects are found the parachute must not be
packed for use. Inflation in suitable conditions is a good way to check and air a canopy before a repack, but each panel must still
be inspected visually for damage or wear to fabrics and sewing.
Checking lines
Lay the canopy on the packing table and attach bungees to the packing tabs on the top of the canopy and attach them to the end
of the table, attach the bridle to the opposite end of the table and tension the reserve. Now separate the lines into groups and
ensure there are no crossed or tangled lines.
Inspect the condition of each line and sewing of the lines on both the canopy and bridle ends.
