GENERAL

Dear MAC PARA pilot

We congratulate you on your purchase of a MAC PARA paraglider. Extensive development
work and numerous tests make the Eden 5 a very high performance paramotoring glider
with maximum possible safety. The Eden 5 is constructed for thermal and cross-country
flying, and will enable pilots to get maximum enjoyment. The Eden 5 offers very easy
inflation and simple ground-handling characteristics by take off, excellent handling in flight
and easy landing. Please read this manual carefully before you start, this way you will get
the most out of your glider. MAC PARA wish you many pleasant flights with your Eden 5.

Please read this manual carefully and note following details:

Paragliding is a sport, which demands, besides the optimum equipment, a high degree of
attentiveness, good judgement, and theoretical knowledge. Paragliding can be a
dangerous sport, which may lead to injury and death. This paraglider meets at the time of
delivery requirements of the EN (European Norm) 926 or LTF (German Certificate of
Airworthiness). Any alternations to the paraglider will render its certification invalid! The use
of this paraglider is solely at the user’s own risk! Manufacturer and distributor do not accept
any liability. Pilots are responsible for their own safety and their paraglider airworthiness.
The paraglider carries no warranty! The author assumes that the pilot is in possession of a
valid paragliding licence for glider’s category, insurance etc.

Before delivery, as well as during production, each paraglider goes through a strict visual
inspection, and is test-flown by your dealer. Stamps on the placard, together with a
completed test-flight certificate, confirm this. Check that the paraglider has been test-flown
before your first take-off. If it has not, consult your dealer.

Any inadequate use or misuse increases the risks considerably. The Eden 5 must not be
used outside the certified weight range. The Eden 5 must not be used during rain or snow-
fall. The Eden 5 must not be used in high or gusty winds. The Eden 5 must not be used in
cloud and fog. The Eden 5 must not be used by pilots without sufficient knowledge or
experience.

If, after carefully reading this handbook, you still have questions, suggestions or criticism
regarding this product do not hesitate to contact your dealer or us. We will be glad to help
and advice.

MAC PARA wish you many pleasant flights with your

Eden 5
