2.1.3- Inserting the reserve parachute into the VOYAGER PLUS harness
Insert the reserve parachute into the pocket of the harness, so that the handle is visible and facing outwards, and the loop connecting the handle to the
deployment bag is facing upwards.
Thread a thin cord (such as paraglider riser cords) through each elastic loop. This will help close the pocket.
Thread the elastic loops into the smallest of the eyelets on the pocket flaps. Close the flaps following the order shown in the photographs below.
Push the metal pins on the handle into the elastic loops and under the transparent cover. It is essential to remove the cords after this operation. The cords should
be pulled out slowly in order not to damage the elastic loops by excessive friction. Lastly, the handle should be positioned under the elastic cover.
IMPORTANT:
Every new combination of reserve parachute and harness or the external container assembled for the first time should be tested by an official harness or reserve
parachute dealer, or by a flying instructor. Deployment of the reserve parachute should be perfectly feasible from the normal flying position.
