Disposal: 

 

The  synthetic  materials  used  in  a  paramotoring  glider  need  professional  disposal. 
Please send disused canopies back to MAC PARA for proper dismantle and disposal. 

 

The Colorado 2 is delivered with a stuff-sack, Mac Pack, repair kit and user manual. 

What to do if you break a line 

Breaking a line or multiple lines on your glider is unfortunate but can be fixed. Most of the 
time  lines  can  be  easily  replaced  with  your  glider  being  restored  back  to  factory  settings 
within a short time. Depending on the extent of the damage, the line repair can be done by 
you  or  a  qualified  professional  MAC  PARA  approved  facility.  Consult  your  closest  
MAC PARA dealer or MAC PARA directly with the type of line you may need.  
Identifying which line you require to replace the broken line can be found by laying out your 
glider outside, looking at where the damage line is and referencing the line plan guide near 
the end of this manual. The better you know what you need and how many, the faster you 
will get help with the correct advice. Not all lines are made from the same material or are 
the same thicknesses. 

Damage to the Canopy 

Paramotoring  involves  fast  moving  parts  like  a  spinning  propeller  and  hot  engines. 
Sometimes those parts come in contact with your glider and can quickly cause damage to 
your  glider.  Do  not  fly  your  glider  that  has  sustained  any  damage.  Any  damage  to  your 
glider needs to be professionally repaired before your next flight.  

ATTENTION: Do not risk your life by flying a damaged glider. 

If the rip, tear or damage is small and you have consulted with your dealer first, then the 
repair may be performed by yourself with proper adhesive repair cloth. To avoid confusion, 
it  is  recommended  to  send  detailed  pictures  to  your  MAC  PARA  dealer  or  MAC  PARA 
directly. Do not attempt to repair or fix the glider yourself without the proper advice from a 
qualified professional. Failure to do so will void your warranty and put you at risk. 

 

Warranty: 

MAC PARA guarantees free of charge repairs caused by the material or production faults 
according to the following scheme: 
For  powered  flying  the  MAC  PARA  warranty  covers  24  months  (2  years)  or  100  flight 
hours. With intensive use an annual check is needed, after the first 2 years check.  
Warranty does not cover:  

 

canopy colour fading  

 

damage caused by chemicals or salt water  

 

damage caused by incorrect use  

 

damage caused by emergency situations  

 

damage resulting from accidents (airborne or not)
