4. OPERA TING LIMITS
Sky System 3 has been specially developed for use as a
reserve parachute for paragliding and hanggliding. Use for other
flying sports such as base-jumping, parachuting etc. was not
designed for such alternative uses and is therefore prohibited.
According to EN 12491:2001 Sky System 3 reserve parachutes
may be only used up to maximum speeds of 32 m/s or 115 km/h.
Sky Paragliders impose a one-year repacking of your parachute
reserve as mandatory. To air out and repack your rescue more
often than the minimum limit helps out to keep your rescue in
good condition.
After a deployment, the reserve parachute must be inspected
by the manufacturer or authorized maintenance personnel.
The reserve parachute must be replaced after 10 years, even in
the case that it has never been deployed or used.
Sky System 3 parachute system has been tested and found
compliant using their original manufacturer´s inner container.
Using any other inner container can produce different results,
including failures.

6. CONNECT THE
RESERVE
P ARACHUTE TO
THE HARNESS
%
To connect the reserve parachute to the bridle, you must use a
shackle with at least 2200 daN ultimate strength. The shackle
has to be secured on both sides with rubber bands by means
of Larks Head knot, with fixing tape or a neoprene socket to
protect against fraying and abrasion. Direct connection between
the main riser and the harness bridle is not recommended, as
a wrongly installed knot or shock opening could significantly
weaken the system depending on the configuration!
It is important to ensure that the connection is centred, that
is, the two connecting lines leading to the shoulder straps are
of the same length. If the harness does not have an integrated /
designated attachment points for the reserve chute on the
shoulder straps, then the reserve chute connecting line can,
alternatively, be attached to both main carabiners. If using the
main carabiners, again ensure that the connection is centred
(equidistant connecting lines).
7 . COMP A TIBILITY
TEST
Sky System 3 rescue system is appropriate for integrated
reserve parachute containers. The very first installation of the
reserve parachute into the harness should be carried out only
by an expert or compatibility-testing authority. This requirement
is necessary to make sure that no unsuitable harnesses with
integrated outer containers are used in combination with our
reserve.
