LOOKING AFTER YOUR PARAGLIDER
Storage:
Store the paraglider in a dry space at ambient temperature away from chemicals and UV
light.

Never pack or store the glider wet. This shortens the life of the cloth Always dry glider
thoroughly before any packing or storage.

During transport it has to be considered, that some materials of the paraglider are
temperature sensitive. Avoid subjecting your wing to high temperatures (e.g. the
luggage space of a parked car in the sun)!
When sending your wing as a parcel, take extra care with packing.
Repairs and checks:

Tears in the canopy must be professionally sewn. Adhesive patches are only
adequate for very minor damage.

Repairs should only be carried out by the manufacturer, distributor or authorized
workshops. Only original spare parts may be used!

The lines must be checked after every 50 hours flying time and whenever the flight
behaviour changes

Any changes to the canopy lines or risers, except those approved by the
manufacturer, will void the certificate of airworthiness.

The Eden 5 must be checked as a minimum, after two years or after 100 flying hours
by the manufacturer or authorized workshops.
Disposal:

The synthetic materials used in a paraglider need professional disposal. Please send
disused canopies back to us: we will dismantle and dispose of it.
In Conclusion:
The Eden 5 is a modern paraglider. You will enjoy many safe years of flying with your
Eden 5 if you look after it correctly and adopt a mature and responsible approach to the
demands and dangers flying can pose. It must be clearly understood that all air sports are
potentially dangerous and that your safety is ultimately dependent upon you. We strongly
urge you to fly safely. This includes your choice of flying conditions as well as safety
margins during flying manoeuvres. We recommend once more that you only fly with a
certified harness, reserve parachute, and helmet. Also the certification placard must be
present on the glider. Every pilot should be suitably qualified, have a valid license and 3rd
party insurance. The Eden 5 is delivered with a stuff-sack, Velcro compression strap, MAC
PARA backpack, repair kit and user manual.
