USING SKY SPARE LIGHT / SKY SYSTEM II / SKY LITE SYSTEM
Before each flight, check all straps securing the outer container to the harness
(where applicable). Ensure that the container is closed properly, and visually
inspect the safety pins for damage and make sure that they are secure.
Deploying the Reserve Canopy:
1. Find the deployment handle.
2. Grasp the deployment handle. Pull it out of the outer container or harness.
3. Using the deployment handle, throw the inner container forcefully into open
air (AWAY from the paraglider canopy).
4. Throwing the inner container away will seperate it from the canopy.
5. The canopy – thanks to the central line – inflates quickly and easily.
6. The paraglider will collapse by pulling the „B" risers to stabilise the descent.
As with all paraglider reserve systems, the deployment shot must be forceful
enough to separate the inner container from the canopy. The special coating
and design of SKY SPARE LIGHT / SKY SYSTEM II / SKY LITE dramatically
reduce failed deployments, in comparison to other reserve systems. In case
the system does not deploy immediately due to a weak shot, the pilot should
grasp the parachute bridle attached to the harness, pull it back – if necessary
for another, more forceful shot (which is extremely unlikely to occur even when
using systems inferior to SKY SPARE LIGHT / SKY SYSTEM II / SKY LITE, this
is an extremely unlikely occurrence).
WARNING!
The reserve is not allowed to be used for skydiving!
According to EN 12491, the reserve is "not suitable for usage at speeds
above 32m/s (115km/h)".
This guide conforms to requirements specified by Regulation EN 12491.
