care & maintenance
z
Our HQ kite is very easy to care for and requires no special maintenance apart from regular checking for damage and wear.
z
Using the dirt out opening on the outside of the trailing edge, it is possible to remove sand and dirt out of the close outside cells.
z
Dirt can be removed with luke-warm water. You can use a gentle soap solution, but not aggressive cleaning agents. A sponge may help.
z
Do not wash the foil in a washing machine. The colors bleed and the lines tangle a lot.
z
Your kite is a high quality product and repairs are worthwhile in many cases. Your specialist retailer will be pleased to help.
z
Never leave your kite packed. Do not store the kite packed up for several days if it is damp. The sail will get unattractive mould spots or become discoloured!
z
Protect your material from unnecessarily long exposure to UV radiation from the sun.
z
You should always wind your lines back onto the winder provided.
z
The useful life of your line is also shortened by UV radiation exposure. Avoid getting unnecessary dirt on them by going toward them when winding up rather than dragging them towards
you. Dirt, knots, twists or contact with other lines or objects can reduce the breaking load of your line by more than 10%.
repairs
1. Sand and dirt are easily removed via the open chambers or the “Dirt Outs”.
2. Small tears are easily repaired by applying a piece of self-adhesive spinnaker. The area to which it will adhere should be clean and dry. If possible, repair the tear from
both sides.
3. A loose sewing thread end is easily affixed with a drop of instant glue. This can also be used on the ends of small tears to keep them from tearing farther. Use the
glue very sparingly.
4. You can replace a torn line yourself with a small amount of skill. Your main dealer will be happy to help you choose the right line material. Since each line on the chute
is there twice, the length of the line can be measured against the other, intact line of the same type.
warranty and liability
Our products are developed and manufactured using the highest standards and are subject to continual quality inspections. If, however, one of our products was processed defectively or has
defective material, we will replace it free of charge. This applies in addition to your legal rights.
A guarantee cannot be taken over:
z

z

z
returned to HQ-Invento without a valid receipt
All moving parts are basically wear parts. Check your kite continuously for abrasion and replace damaged parts before you use your kite.
Send products requiring repair or replacement to your HQ dealer. A dealer list can be found under www.powerkites.de.
important information regarding your flying lines
INVENTO will not replace flying lines if they have been used incorrectly, if they are worn from normal use or if they have failed due to knots in the line. If kites are flown with flying lines that have
too low of break strength, the lines will break.
