Checking the risers

The risers have to be checked for abrasion and damage, especially on the main
suspension  loop,  on  the  seams,  and  on  the  shackles.  The  shackles  have  to  be
tightened  properly.  Damaged  or  missing  o-rings  have  to  be  replaced.  Also
check  the  speed  system  for  damages.  Make  sure,  that  the  length  of  the  speed
systems rope is sufficient: The A-riser must not be shortened, if you stretch all
risers.
A damaged riser has to be replaced by a new one.

Measuring the line lengths

The  measurement  of  the  lines  has  to  be  performed  with  a  special  measuring
device (see Necessary documents and devices for performing a check) and our
own  Software.  (see  www.nova-wings.com/english/info_zone/ntt.html).  With
this  software  and  our  computer  online  system  (COS)  all  relevant  data  is
recorded and saved on a server.

To  use  this  system,  you  have  to  get  a  proper  introduction  at  NOVA
International.  Then  you  will  get  the  access  to  our  online  system.  (Find  a  list
with  all  authorized  persons  and  check  centres  here:  (www.nova-
wings.com/english/nova/checkcenter.html )

Documentation

After performing the check,  the check sheet has to be  saved on the computer.
Then  a  protocol  will  be  generated  automatically,  which  has  to  be  printed  and
handed to the costumer.
The NFS has to be entered on the glider. (As well as the date of the next NFS)
