fundamental, do take an important part in the use, transport and storage
of the paraglider:
- The large capacity kargo rucksack, ideal for packing the harness as
well as the glider.
- An inner folding bag making the glider folding process easier.
- An adjustable folding strap for quick and easy packing.
- speed bar
- A small fabric repair kit with self-adhesive ripstop nylon (matching the
wing’s colour scheme) and replacement maillon blockers.

2.1 CHoosiNG THe riGHT loCATioN
We recommend unpacking and packing your wing on a school slope or a
flat obstacle free area and in low wind speed. it will help you to carry out
all the recommended steps required to check and inflate the koYoT 3.
We recommend having professional supervision during the initial
unpacking and assembly procedures.
2.2 proCedure
Take the paraglider out of the rucksack, open it and spread it with the
lines on top of the intrados. position the wing as if you were to inflate it.
Check the condition of the fabric and the lines for abnormalities. pay
attention to the maillons connecting the lines to the risers to make sure
they are fully closed and tightened. identify and if necessary disentangle
the lines from the A, B and C risers, the toggle lines and corresponding
risers; they must be tangle and/or knot free.
2.3 HArNess AssemBlY
The koYoT 3 risers come with different colours:
- right side in green
- left side in red
This feature helps the pilot to better identify each side during the pre-
flight phase and in flight.
Correctly connect the risers to the harness carabiners. The risers and
lines cannot have any twists and must be in the right order. Check for the
harness buckles to be properly fastened and securely locked.
2.4 HArNess TYpe
The koYoT 3 can be flown with most of the harnesses found on the
market today, including the cocoon style models.
We strongly recommend adjusting the distance between the chest
strap carabiners according to the settings used during the certification
procedure. The distance will vary according to the size of the chosen
harness model.
incorrect chest strap adjustments can affect glider/harness behaviour
and thus glider handling. Too wide a distance between the carabiners will
provide greater feedback from the wing but less glider stability. Too narrow
a distance will not bring as much feedback in addition to increasing the risk
of experiencing a riser twist during a collapse.
in any case, it is appropriate to refer to the harness’s instruction manual
and the certification test report outlining the chest strap length adjustments
used for these tests.
