PARAJET VOLUTION 3 PARAMOTOR
OWNERS INSTRUCTION & SAFETY MANUAL
Weight-shift harness
adjustment
The Parajet paramotor harness is a low
hang point system. Parajet has always
been a strong advocate of the low hang
point attachment and it has been a
permanent feature throughout their range
of paramotors.
Parajet’s innovative design offers
improved wing feedback and an optimised
thrust line while removing the normal
swing or rocking motion found under
throttle.
This combination of low hang point
attachment and articulated pivot arms
culminates in the ability for the pilot to
control direction without the ongoing
control input. Known as weight-shift,
this dynamic feature works through the
pilot’s weight effecting the orientation
of the pivot arms, which in turn provides
input into the wing. Weight-shift enables
pilots to emanate the agile characteristics
of free-flight with manoeuvrability so
precise, that the paramotor feels like an
extension of their body.
To achieve the
best flying characteristics of the
harness it is important that you
spend time to fully understand the
adjustment system and set it up for
your optimum weight setting. Failure
to do this accurately will result in
poor handling, an uncomfortable
flying experience and could lead to
a potentially hazardous accident.
The harness should be adjusted to suit
both your physique and flying style. It is
important to adjust it correctly to ensure
you can easily slide into the sitting
position after take-off.
While we have endeavoured to provide
concise and accurate instructions for
harness adjustment, we recommend that
these be tested before your first flight by
hanging in a simulator with the aid of a
qualified paramotor instructor.
Due to the dynamic nature of the harness,
additional fine-tuning of adjustments
maybe required during your first few
flights to ensure optimum comfort.

Adjusting the harness
offset pins
The Parajet paramotor harness is shipped
with the offset pins already attached to
the pivot arms. Always ensure the offset
pins are installed on the correct side of
the pivot arm for your engine.

To adjust the offset pins, unfasten
the 6mm attachment bolts from the
pivot arm.
Locate the offset pin to the desired
position on the pivot arm based
on your weight range (see guide
above).
Secure the offset pin in place using
the attachment bolts, tightened to
20 Nm.
Adjusting the harness straps
The Parajet paramotor harness has been
designed to offer maximum adjustment to
give you many hours of comfort, freeing
you up to enjoying your flying. The harness
should be adjusted to suit your physique
and flying style. It is important to adjust
the harness correctly to ensure you can
easily slide into the sitting position after
take-off. Before making any adjustments,
loosen all straps and webbing.
Leg Straps
Correct adjustment of the leg straps
enables you to easily deploy the seatboard
and reach the sitting position after take-
off without using your hands. In the
standing position, use the quick-release
buckle to secure each strap around the
thigh. Symmetrically adjust the leg straps
using the handle loops so that they fit
comfortably without being tight.
Waist Strap
The waist strap adjusts to give you
a variable level of movement within
the harness. The waist strap may also
be adjusted in flight according to the
conditions; for example, it may be
tightened in turbulent air and flown at a
looser setting in less turbulent conditions
to allow for easier weight shift.
