FOOT STARTING SYSTEM (F.A.S.)
A foot strap is used to start PAP machines with manual start only. This system allows you to turn off the engine
during flight, and be able to restart using the foot strap fitted on the left foot:
Place the strap on the left foot ensuring the loop is protruding behind your heel.
Then look for a support (such as a person or a car) (fig 18). With the engine on the back and without support, it is
easy to become unbalanced and fall and this may cause physical injury and damage to the paramotor.
Once supported, raise the left heel, take the Starter handle and insert it into the loop of the pedal right at
the heel (fig. 19).
Support yourself adequately then move your foot downwards and forwards in a constant kicking motion. Once
started release the starter handle from the foot strap and allow it to retract back to its initial position.
During flight, with sufficient altitude, you can practice stopping & restarting the engine (this will be easier to do as
there is no balancing required).
