The  more  turbulent  the  weather  conditions  and  when  near  the  ground,  the 
less acceleration should be used. Using the accelerator decreases the angle 
of attack and can make the glider more prone to collapse.  

Do  not  use  the  acceleration  system  and brakes  at  the  same  time!  It  is  very 
dangerous to use both simultaneously as it can result in serious collapses. 

Trimmspeed Optimizer 

 

It is forbidden to open the TSO more than 20 mm because a paraglider with 
a setting of more than 20 mm has no declaration of conformity.  

 

To fly with a setting of more than 20 mm is forbidden because it

 

may occur 

that  a  portion  of  your  glider  deflates,  especially  when  using  the 
acceleration system and flying in turbulent conditions. 

 

If  the  TSO  is  damaged  (e.g.  it  is  broken)  the  rear  riser  is  protected  with  a 
backup  riser.  In  this  case,  you  will  have  to  correct  the  drift  by  leaning  on 
the opposite side, carefully and safely fly to the nearest landing place and 
do  not  pull  too  hard  on  the  brake  lines,  there  is  an  increased  risk  of  the 
wing to stalling or negative turn being initiated. 

 

Its  also  important  for  your  safety  that  you  never  change  recommended 
settings  for  the  TSO  to  obtain  a  higher  speed  without  any  adjustment 
would be necessary. 

 

Both sides must always be set to the same length! 

 

Depending on whether a glider is flown at the upper or lower limit, the trim speed is 
different. With increasing age, the A-and B-lines stretch in proportion to the C / D 
level a bit more.  Even with the temperature changes the trim speed and extreme 
flight  behavior  of  modern  gliders  but  therefore  it  is  not  necessary  to  adjust  the 
TSO. The TSO is protected by a neoprene cover on the rear riser, can only be set 
on the ground and is unchangeable in the air. For adjusting put back the neoprene 
covering,  than  the  safeguard,  adjust  TSO  by  5  mm  steps  (=  distance  between 
adjustment  notches)  and  place  back  the  safeguard.  Total  value  of  the  TSO  is 
limited with a safety belt.  

When all risers have the same length the original trim exists. The lengths of 
the  risers  can  be  combined  (add  correction  of  wing  loading,  aging  and 
temperature).  

Adjustment range 

               max. 20mm
