Swing Mistral Betriebsanleitung Seite 21

Check the seat and harness: Ensure the leg straps are taut
and of equal length, that the chest straps are taut and that all
are in correct position.
Check the brake handles, risers and seams for faults.
SWING-MISTRAL Speedsystem
The "SWING-MISTRAL" is equipped with a foot-operated speed
bar that is attached to the risers. This system ensures the best
possible efficiency and speed variations. Once you have attached
the foot bar you increase your speed by pressing it down. In the
chapter on "Flying" we will discuss this in more detail.
Arranging the Canopy
We recommend that you arrange the gathered canopy in a
semicircle open towards the way you are going to run. Pull the
lines until they are taut and start disentangling the REAR lines.
Launch
The "SWING MISTRAL" is launched in a conventional manner via
the A-risers. Depending on the gradient of the launch site you
should apply light brake pressure to the "SWING-MISTRAL" as it
accelerates to a point directly above you. When launching the
"MISTRAL" versions that have split A-risers, one must ensure that
both A-risers are held. For strong wind launches it is
recommended that only the inner A-riser is used.
Flight
Your "SWING - MISTRAL" has excellent flight characteristics, yet
we recommend that you get to know your glider very thoroughly.
