Most harnesses have a handle for the harness containers. This handle must be
connected to the inner container. The inner container of ICARO rescue systems
has two loops, in which the handle of the harness can be attached (center, side).
Handles for front and back containers are generally suspended in the central loop,
container on side or under the seat, the side strap used.
If there is no handle of the harness or it does not fit with
your inner container, please ask the dealer of your
harness or your paragliding school.
Attachment of the connection belt with the harness
For connecting the two belts use a fixable 24 KN- snap hook
with a diameter of 8 mm. It is very important that the snap
hook cannot twist to prevent traverse stress of the snap
hook.
Therefore use cable fixer, adhesive tape or strong rubber bands and pull it
above
and below the snap hook
around the belts.
Another fixing method is to
put the belt of the rescue
system through the
connection belt of the
harness and than the rescue
system trough the harness
belt as shown in the photo.
t is just as very important
that the knot is very tight
fastened. Therefore use
cable fixer, adhesive tape or
strong rubber bands and pull
it
above and below the
knot
around the belts.
Please pay attention to the symmetry of both lines. Neither side of the loop
must be longer than the other.
Closing the container
Now put the rescue system in the container under
the seat.
First insert the delivered rubber bands with knots in
the eyelets of flap (flap with smaller eyelets, Nr.1).
Then fold the flap inwards.
The rescue connection handle must be threaded
through the loops so that the connection line can be
tightened without difficulty.
The packing cords are threaded through the eyelets
of the flap Nr.2
Then pull the lines through the last remaining flap 3
(with transparent window) and fix the splint with the
now visible rubber bands.
