If you damage a line:

Any  line  that  is  visually  damaged  MUST  be  replaced  immediately.  Do  not  fly  with  damaged  lines. 
Replacement lines  can be ordered them from your local Ozone dealer or directly from our website http://
www.flyozone.com/paragliders/en/shop/lines.php.  Alternatively,  use  a  reputable  paragliding  service 
centre to make the replacement lines.

It  is  important  that  replacement  lines  are  made  from  the  correct  materials  and  diameters.  You  should 
check lengths against their counterpart on the other side of the wing to make ensure symmetry. In fact it 
is wise to always replace both sides to ensure symmetry. Once the lines have been replaced, inflate and 
carefully check the wing before flying.  

Maintenance  Checks 

Your wing, like a car, should be technically checked to ensure proper airworthiness. Your wing should be 
checked by a qualified professional for the first time after 24 months, or after 100 hours. However, if you 
are a frequent flyer (more than 100 hrs per year), then we recommend, that you get your glider checked 
annually. The checker should inform you about the condition of your glider and if some parts will need to 
be checked or changed before the next normal service check period.

The sail and the lines do not age in the same way or at the same rate; it is possible that you may have to 
change part or all of the lines during the wing’s life. For this reason it is important to do regular inspections 
so  that  you  know  the  exact  condition  of  all  of  the  components  of  your  glider.  We  recommend  that 
inspections are carried out by a qualified professional.

You alone are responsible for your flying kit and your safety depends on it. Take care of your equipment 
and have it regularly inspected. Changes in inflation/groundhandling/flying behaviour indicates the gliders 
aging, if you notice any changes you should have the wing checked before flying again. These are the 
basic elements of the check up (full details and permissible figures can be found on our website):
Porosity is measured with a porosity meter, the time taken by a certain volume of air to go through a 
certain surface of the cloth. The time in seconds is the result. A measurement is done in a several places 
on the top surface along the span of the glider behind the leading edge.

IMPORTANT

Take care of your 

glider and make sure 

you have it checked 

and serviced according 

to the schedule.

The  tearing  resistance  of  the  cloth 

-  A  non-destructive  test  following  the  TS-108  standard  which 

specifies minimum tear strength for sky diving canopies should be made using a Bettsometer. (B.M.A.A. 
Approved Patent No. GB 2270768 Clive Betts Sails).

Strength of the lines 

- An upper, middle and lower A line, along with a lower B line should be tested for 

strength. Each line is tested to breaking point and the value recorded. The minimum value is 14 G for all 
A+B lines, calculated from the maximum certified flying weight of the glider. The added minimum strength 
for the middle lines and for the top lines should be the same. If the breaking strength is too close to the 
minimum  value  calculated,  the  professional  should  give  a  period  after  which  you  will  have  to  test  the 
strength of the lines again.

Lengths of the lines

 - The overall length (riser lines + mid lines + upper lines) has to be checked under 

5Kgs of tension. The difference between the measured length and the original length should not exceed 
+/- 10mm. The changes that could appear are a slight shrink on the B’s and/or a slight stretch on the A’s. 
The consequences of these changes can include a slower trim speed, difficult inflation etc. 

Risers

 - Visual inspection for signs of wear or abrasion. Differences to manual lengths should not exceed  

+/-5mm.

Canopy check

 - A full visual check should be carried out: All the components of the wing (stitching, ribs, 

diagonals, lines, tabs, ...) should be checked for signs of deterioration.

Finally, a 

flight test 

to confirm that the wing behaves normally should be carried out by a professional.

Modifications

Your Ozone Enzo 3 has been carefully designed and trimmed to give the optimum balance of performance, 
handling and safety. Any modification results in the glider losing its certification and will also make the 
wing  more  difficult  and  dangerous  to  fly.  For  these  reasons,  we  strongly  recommend  that  you  do  not 
modify your glider in any way.
