Maintaining your Vulcan

Your Ozone Vulcan will be looking after you in the air, but it's up to
you to look after it on the ground.
Inspecting Your Vulcan
Your Vulcan has undergone thorough checks by skilled inspectors at
every stage of manufacture. However, we still advise you to make a
lengthy pre-flight check before your first flight and then again at the
start of every flying day.

Pre Flight Check List

It is important to perform regular maintenance checks on your
Vulcan especially before and after heavy usage or long periods of
storage.
To avoid forgetting points it is helpful to always use the same proce-
dure:
• Check all stitching on your harness, rescue bridle and risers.
• Check all quick links, maillons and karabiners.
• Check all lines - from handles to the wing, look for knots and
damage.
• Check all line attachment points to the wing.
• Check all surfaces and stitching, look for damage and ageing.
• Check all the internal ribs for damage or fatigue.
If you find any signs of damage or abnormal wear, consult your deal -
er, school or OZONE for advice.
