Harness Set-Up

1) Reserve Parachute Installation
The initial installation of the reserve parachu-
te should be carried out by a qualified pro-
fessional.
We recommend that the initial installation of the
reserve parachute be done by a qualified
professional. Ask your paragliding equipment
supplier or instructor to do the initial installation
of the reserve parachute, and familiarise yourself
with the process. The size of the reserve pocket
on SKYLIGHTER is suitable for most current
reserve systems. The size of the SKYLIGHTER
reserve pocket is designed for light reserves.
We strongly recommend using SKY LITE or SKY
SPARE light because of their low volume. We
strongly discourage the use of a steerable
reserve. If it is not possible to connect
the harness reserve handle to loops on
the parachute deployment bag inside the pocket,
please consult your supplier who may be able
to supply an alternative deployment bag. Loops
can be sewn at an appropriate place on any
deployment bag, but this must be carried out by
a qualified person only.
WARNING!
After installation of a reserve parachute in the
harness, it is absolutely essential to do a simulated
deployment under a static swing, ensuring that
the parachute release system operates correctly
and the parachute comes out easily.
Before each flight, check that the pin and handle
are located correctly.
