Speed System
The U-Turn FREE FORCE 3 is equipped with a very eff ective leg-actuated speedsystem that increases the speed btw. 13
and 17 km/h depending on model and pilots weight area load respectively. During extreme manoeuvers the speedsys-
tem should not be activated, when entering an extreme manoeuvres it should be immediately deactivated. All extreme
manoeuvres (i.e. stalls...) get more dynamically at higher speed.
Because the maximal adjustment of the accelerator is related to the safety characteristics of the canopy it may happen,
that - using certain harnesses - the broad accelerator adjustment is not available.
Suitable Harness
All offi
cially approved harness systems with mounting about the breast height are suitable for the FREE FORCE 3 (they
have to be LTF and DHV rated GH). The lower the mounting, the better is the steering by shifting of the bodyweight. U-
Turn recommends the new IQ4 harness for its highest level of safety and convenience. The positioning of the mounting
also changes the relative brakedistance. If you have any questions about the usage of your harness with the FREE FORCE
3, ask your U-Turn dealer or directly contact U-Turn. We assist you in any possible way.
Suitable Rescue System
It is required by law and absolutely neccessary for safe operation of your paraglider that you always carry a rescue
system with you. When choosing a rescue system, watch out that it is approved and suitable for the intended takeoff
weight. With the innovative rescue systems of the SECURE-series by U-Turn light-weight, convenient and safe reserves
are available. The SECURE rescues off er extremely short opening times and low sink-rates.
Operation
This instruction manual only pays attention to those points of fl ying technique which are important for the FREE FORCE
3. It is not meant to substitute a basic fl ying education in an approved fl ying school! If a fl ying education and the appro-
priate experience is missing, paragliding is dangerous to life.
Range of Operation
The FREE FORCE 3 has been developed and tested for ordinary takeoff s, winching, and is also well suitable for motoized
operations. An unauthorized or unapproved use of the FREE FORCE 3, or operation out of its operational limits is im-
proper and dangerous.
Aerobatics
Aerobatics are illegal and dangerous. There is a danger of unpredictable fl ight conditions that could result in overstress-
ing both material and pilot.
