repair:
All repairs must be carried out by the manufacturer or by an authorised skywalk-Serv-
ice-Centre. Amateur repairs can cause more harm than good.
Wear:
The skywalk CHILI 2 mainly consists of Nylon fabric that loses strength and shows
an increase in porosity under the influence of UV-radiation. Unpack the paraglider
shortly before launch and pack away immediately after landing to avoid any
unnecessary sun exposure.
DISPOSal
skywalk places high value on the environmental compatibility and quality control of our
materials. If your glider should reach the point where it is no longer airworthy, please re-
move the metal parts. All other parts such as lines, cloth and risers can be brought to a
waste disposal center. The metal parts can be brought to metal recycling.
If you wish, you can send your glider on to us, and we will dispose of it in a responsible
manner.
line-repairs
The CHILI 2 suspension lines are composed of a Dyneema-core with a Polyester sheath-
ing as well as unsheathed Technora Lines.
Repeated folding or kinking of lines (even the slightest amount) at the same spot reduc-
es their strength.
Any visual damage of a line, even if it is only the line coating, requires a replacement
line. Only acquire new lines from the manufacturer or from an authorised skywalk-Serv-
ice-Centre. Your flying school or your dealer will assist you to change a defect line.
Check the correct length of the line before replacing it. Compare with its counterpart
on the opposite side of your glider. After the exchange a line-check will be necessary.
The best way to this is by unfolding the glider on the ground!
