Harness Cleaning And Maintenance; Storage And Transport - SUPAIR ALTIRANDO LITE 2 Betriebshandbuch

User's manual | ALTIRANDO LITE 2
It is a good idea to clean your harness from time to time. We recommend using a brush and soft solvents only ( soap or mild cleaning agents ). Rinse
thoroughly. Never use aggressive chemicals such as strong solvents which could be harmful to the fabric, webbings, stitching and weaken the overall
integrity of the harness.
The zippers should be lubricated from time to time using a silicon spray.
If you regularly use your harness in a dusty environment ( dirt sand etc... ) we advise you to regularly check and maintain your carabiners and buck-
les : clean them with a mild detergent then blow-dry them fully but DO NOT LUBRICATE !
Prior to using them conduct a thorough carabiners and buckles checkup to insure their full functionality.
If you use your harness in a marine/sandy/salty environment pay particular attention to your gear and follow a regular rigorous maintenance routine.
When not in use, your harness should be stored inside your paragliding backpack, in a dry, cool and clean place, protected from UV exposure. If your
harness is wet, please dry it thoroughly before storing. For transport, protect the harness from any mechanical or UV deterioration (use a bag). Please
avoid long transports in wet conditions.
Once every two (2) years a thorough harness inspection must be conducted :
• Webbing wear and tear (no excessive wear nor rip beginning or unwanted folds).
• Buckles and carabiners ( functionality wear and tear ).
The threads and fabric used to manufacture the ALTIRANDO LITE 2 were specifically selected for their quality and resilience capacities.
However in particular instances such as long term UV exposure abrasion, contact with damaging chemicals, general wear and tear, the
harness will need to be inspected at a professional certified repair facility. Safety comes first!
The self-locking carabiners are NEVER to be used for any activities other than paragliding.
Independently of the pre-flight check-out, you have to open and unfold your rescue parachute once every year.
