12 DISPOSAL
When choosing materials, skywalk places high value on environmental
compatibility and the highest quality control. Should your harness some-
day no longer be flyable, remove all metal parts.
All remaining parts can be turned in at a recycling center. The metallic
parts can be turned in at a metals recycling center.
The best solution is to send your retired skywalk harness directly to us.
We will then take care of recycling it.
13 HOMOLOGATION
The CONTOUR is certified to to EN 1651/1999 and additionally to LTF91/09
with PERMAIR protector. The CONTOUR is defined as a lightweight sport air-
craft with an empty weight of less than 100kg in the paraglider category.
The many homologation tests are the last hurdle in the development of a
FLARE harness The homologation tests only take place when the test team is
completely happy with the harness development.
14 MAINTENANCE CHECK
After 24 months of the initial purchase FLARE requires a recurring mainte-
nance. The maintenance check will be carried out by the manufacturer or
an authorized representative.
IF THE HARNESS IS SUBJECTED TO ABOVE AVERAGE WEAR
AND TEAR (EXTREME FLIGHT MANEUVERS, FORBIDDEN ACRO-
BAT FLIGHT MANEUVERS) IT SHOULD BE INSPECTED EARLIER
OR SHOULD UNDERGO AN ADDITIONAL INSPECTION!
LEAK TEST
After a hard landing or fall from a height of more than 0.5m, a leak test
should be performed on the protector in order to be able to detect any
damage before the next flight and to remedy it subsequently.
Follow these steps:
1. Remove the protector from the harness.
2. Inflate the removed protector so that the outer edges of the nameplate
measure 83mm.
3. Store the protector at a constant temperature for 12 hours in a shady room.
4. After the time has elapsed, check the fill level of the protector by measu-
ring the outer edges of the nameplate again. The length must not be less
than 81mm (± 1mm).
5. If the protector meets the requirements under point 4, it can be rein-
stalled.
STORAGE
Ideal is a dry, dark place with a constant temperature. Moisture is an old
enemy of the durability of all paragliding equipment. For this reason, al-
ways dry your equipment before you store it, preferably in a heated and
well ventilated room, so that moisture can evaporate.
Make sure the inflate/deflate valve of the PERMAIR protector remains open
when storing the harness for a longer period.
11 REPAIRS
Repairs should only be carried out by the manufacturer or by an autho-
rized FLARE service center. Exceptions include the repair of small cuts
(up to about 3 cm that don’t affect a seam).
CHANGES TO THE HARNESS
The FLARE CONTOUR is manufactured within the regulated parameters of tol-
erance. These parameters are very narrow and must not be altered under any
circumstance.
UNAUTHORIZED CHANGES INVALIDATE THE TYPE APPROVAL
AND ALL LIABILITY CLAIMS AGAINST THE MANUFACTURER AND
ITS DISTRIBUTORS ARE INVALIDATED.
