Rucksack
Your wing is supplied with a specially designed bag that is light in weight and comfortable. It features
a padded hip belt, adjustable ergonomic shoulder straps and extra pockets to store keys, accessories
and all those extra bits. Its large volume allows you to store all of your equipment whilst distributing the
weight for comfortable hiking.
Brake Lines
The brake line lengths have been set carefully during testing. We feel it is better to have slightly long
brake lines and to fly with a wrap (one turn of line around the hand). However, if you do choose to adjust
their length please keep in mind the following:
• Ensure both main brake lines are of equal length.
• If a brake handle has been removed, check that its line is routed through the pulley when it is replaced.
• When the brakes are fully released in flight, the brake lines should be slack. There must be a substantial
bow in them to guarantee no deformation of the trailing edge when accelerated.
• There must be a minimum of 10cm of free play before the brakes begin to deform the trailing edge.
This prevents the trailing edge from being deformed when using the speed system.
Risers
The Zero 3 has been designed with 4 risers per side. The A riser is covered with coloured webbing, to
allow for easy identification.
Trimmers & Accelerator System
Your Zero 3 is equipped with trimmers and an accelerator system. They should be used independently,
and are essentially meant for different scenarios.
• Use the trimmers in calm conditions when you want more speed and a higher sink rate.
• Use the accelerator system (speed bar) when you need a momentary or temporary acceleration, or in
more active / thermal conditions.
• Do not use the trimmers and speed bar at the same time. If you have any questions or are unsure
about these points, seek guidance and instruction from your local instructor with mini-wing
experience.
IMPORTANT
In the unlikely
event of a brake line
snapping in flight, or
a handle becoming
detached, the glider
can be flown by
gently pulling the rear
risers (D-risers) for
directional control.
WARNING
Never fly with your
trimmers released in
turbulent conditions.
IMPORTANT
Do not use the
trimmers or speed bar
at the same time.
