TRIMER
AUXILIARY COMMAND
The HERCULES 380 has an auxiliary control, this item helps to perform small steering corrections when the
trimmer is released, or to execute more closed turns by activating the break handle with the auxiliary control
when the trimmers are closed, resulting in lighter controls
.
With the trimmer released the Risers A and B are aligned and C
and D are misaligned, increasing the speed and resulting in heavier
controls. This position is ideal for takeoffs and Cross country.
Pulling the red trigger (A) down you will be closing the trimmer and
pressing the black trigger (B) you will be releasing the trimmer.

The regulated distance between the large clips (adjustable at the chest) is 50cm for the Hercules 380.
Variations of more than 5 cm above these ones will alter the fundamental characteristics of the canopy and
are potentially dangerous.
Warning
•
Trimmer activation makes the wing more vulnerable to collapse, reactions can be aggressive. Avoid use
at low height. Never drop the brake handle!
•
In case of rainfall during the flight we suggest opening the trimmer fully and landing as soon as possible;
•
It is not advisable to fly with the HERCULES 380 on rainy days or with the wet Paratrike wing, as the
paraglider becomes more sensitive and a parachute may occur.
