Attention
•
The use of the trimmer simultaneously with the accelerator makes your power
glider more vulnerable for closings. We recommend not to use both in turbulence.
•
In case of closing the reaction of the power glider could be aggressive if the pilot is
using the trimmer or the accelerator or both. Avoid using them with little space
over ground.

S - Adjusting your speed system
The majority of the latest harnesses have pulleys for assembling the Foot Speed
System. In the eventuality the pulleys are not there, it is important to attach such
pulleys (sewing them) in such way to make the operation of the speed system softer.
The little chord on the speed system must be firmly attached (by a non-slippery knot)
to the stirrup (aluminum bar). The other end of the cable is fed through the harness'
pulleys and comes out vertically, and firmly attached to a Quick Link with a strong coil,
a quick hook-up or preferably closed by a nut. In order to adjust the Speed System, we
suggest that you connect the harness and the risers together, suspended from the
ground. Ask a friend to pull the risers 'A' upwards. At this time, adjust the length right
to the bar in such way to be easily reachable with your feet in flight and by stretching
the legs, make sure to allow for a clear path to maximize the accelerator usage.

Attention
•
An incorrect system assembly, that allows for different measurements other than
the indicated could cause accidents!
•
Remember that when using the speed system, the angle of attack decreases which
may result in the collapse of the paraglider, consequently, the use of the speed
system close to the ground should be avoided. We do not recommend the use of
the speed system in turbulent conditions.
•
Never use the speed system in extreme maneuvers.
•
In the event the canopy collapses, release the stirrup immediately and make the
appropriate corrections.
•
Never let go of the toggles!
