Inserting the reserve
First, place the correctly packed reserve next to
the harness the way it will ultimately be fitted,
store the connection lines tidily in loops in the
outer container and then slide the reserve itself
into the container. If the inner container is
equipped with a pilot chute, then it should be at
the back, so that the air can stream into it
better if there is an emergency deployment.
Please be sure to follow the packing and fitting
instructions for the reserve as well. The reserve
is placed into the container in the harness with
its handle visible from the outside and the loop
of the handle’s connection line at the top with
the reserve container.
DANGER
It is essential to check that none of the lines
are knotted or twisted up in the reserve.
The deployment handle must be fastened to
the side of the container towards the
opening, failing which deployment of the
reserve could be impeded.
