The fabric and the lines do not need to be washed, if they become dirty,
clean them gently with a soft damp cloth.
If your wing becomes wet with salty water, immerse it in fresh water and
dry it away from direct sunlight.
The sunlight may damage the materials of your wing and cause
premature aging. Once you have landed do not leave the wing in the sun,
store it properly.
If you use your wing in a sandy area try to avoid the sand from entering
the cell openings of the leading edge. If sand is inside the wing remove it
before folding.
8.2 STORAGE
It is important that the wing is correctly folded when stored. Store your
flying equipment in a cool, dry place away from solvents, fuels or oils. It is
not advisable to store your flying equipment in the trunk of your car.
Temperatures inside a car parked in the sunlight, can be very high. Inside
a rucksack in the sunlight temperatures can reach 60ºC. Weight should
not be laid on top of the equipment.
8.3 CHECKS AND CONTROLS
You should ensure that your LINK is periodically serviced and checked
at your local repair centre every 100 hours of use or every 12 months
(whichever happens first). This will guarantee that your LINK will continue
to function properly and therefore continue fulfilling the homologation
certificate results.
8.4 REPAIRS
If the wing is damaged, you can temporarily repair it by using the rip stop
found in the repair kit, so long as no stitches are involved in the tear. Any
other type of tear must be repaired in a specialized repair shop or by
qualified personnel. Do not accept a home repair.
