It  is  essential  to  ensure  that  the  shackles  or  carabiners  are  firmly  closed 
after connecting the rescue to the paraglider harness. 

Another  fixing  method  is  to  put  the  belt  of  the  rescue  system  through  the 
connection  belt  of  the  harness  and  than  the  rescue  system  through  the  harness 
belt. 

It  is  just  as  very  important  that  the  knot  is  very  tightly  fastened.

 

Therefore, use cable fixer, adhesive tape or strong rubber bands and pull it 

above 

and below the knot

 around the belts. 

Pay attention to the symmetry of both lines. Neither side of the loop must be 
longer than the other. 

Compatibility- check 

A control of every new combination of rescue system and harness/outer container 
must be carried out by either the producer of the harness or the rescue system or 
an  authorized  person  (dealer  or  flight  instructor).  The  activation  of  the  rescue 
system  in  flight  position  must  be  correct  and  in  conformity  to  the  construction 
guidelines.  

The  pulling  force  for  triggering  must  not  exceed  70N.  The  throwing 
movement  should  be  practiced  under  conditions  that  are  as  realistic  as 
possible each time the rescue system is repacked. 

IMPORTANT POINTS TO LOOK OUT FOR: 

 

  Check (regularly) 

 

connection of the rescue system to your harness 

 

connection of the harness and deployment handle 

 

the closing splint must be held with a special thread.  

 

Packing line from the fixing loops is removed (after each packing) 

 

Check compatibility of rescue system and harness 

 

Before each start with your glider, you must check the container is closed!
