Congratulations on buying your

and welcome to the family
of

RO
- pilots!
Before you get to know your glider please read the
manual, there is important information inside.
•
Your
TWICE TE
is
pattern tested in B
1
and therefore a “paraglider with good
passive safety and forgiving flight characteristics. Relatively resistant to
abnormal flight conditions. Appropriable for all pilots including pilots of all
training levels.” Additionally
TWICE TE
size S is homologated for single flying.
•
It is valid using any harness which has been categorized by “GH” and may be
only used for those purposes described in this manual.
•
It is strictly prohibited to fly the
TWICE TE
•
under the influence of drugs or alcohol,
•
without guilty license,
•
beyond the minimum and maximum recommended Take Off-
Weight,
•
The glider is not checked at regular intervals or checked by not
authorized personal
•
with damaged glider, lines, risers or harness
•
in the rain, in snow, in the clouds and fog and in turbulent
weather conditions.
•
Our products are made with great care and state of the art. Each paraglider
before it is delivered to the dealer or flight school is checked by ICARO
paragliders but test flights are made only on a random basis.
•
On that score an approved ICARO dealer or teacher of the flight school must
inflate a new ICARO paraglider in the wind or should carry out the first flight
before the wing is handed over to you. This date is entered in the identification
plate and as well guarantee as the first 2-year-check period starts.
•
The use of this paraglider is entirely at your own risk. Every pilot bears
the responsibility of his/her own safety.
•
In order to get to know your glider, we recommend that you practice with your
glider on the ground. Pulling up in flat gradients is great practice for fine tuning
your launch techniques. Here you can get to learn the reactions of your glider
without any stress and hectic. Ground practice pays off in the air.
•
All technical data and instructions were drawn up with great care.
ICARO paragliders cannot be made responsible for any possible errors
in this manual.
