Safe flying rules
 Observe UL aircraft regulations.
 Do not overestimate your pilot s ills and never show off. Use open areas for emergency
landing training.
 Watch the weather forecast carefully. Do not plan long flights, when storms, fogs or
frost are forecasted.
 Watch fuel level (flight time and real consumption).
 When Choosing the direction and height of your flight always consider possibility
of emergency landing.
 Always fly with reserve of speed, particularly during all start and landing manoeuvres.
 Do not ma e any ind of aerobatics (e.g. total wingovers), even if you thin , your s ills
and flight characteristics of your MPG can manage it.

Line hol ers an frame string instalation
The line holder is installed on the bac arch (in the flight direction) of the protective
paramotor frame. The purpose is to protect the lines from damage by propeller, and the
frame itself from the pressure in the lines running around the frame during ta e off.
Instalation:
1.Gripping of wire in the s eleton
2. Gripping of wire in the frame
3 . Drill two holes, upper hole is 10cm far from the
connection of frame strut, holes / =3mm
10 cm

TAKE OFF
Ma e front start in front wind. Use the line holders for easy ta eoff without emergency of
damaging the frame or propeller. Chec the canopy filling and line condition. Apply full gas
and start the tri e without brea ing the paraglider. Keep the direction against the wind. Do
not bra e after ta eoff and climb with full speed. This minimises the danger of speed loss.
LANDING
Carefully chec the landing place, possible barriers and wind direction. Do always land
against the wind.
Press and hold the engine switch off button on the throttle till the engine stops in high min 15
m above the ground. Land on wheels and put the canopy on the ground to avoid the contact
with hot engine parts.
ENGINE TUNING AND MAINTENANCE
tyres - Chec the tyre pressure regularly. If required, inflate up to 2.5 Mpa.
bra e - We recommend replacing the bra e-shoe lining as soon as the bra es
become less effective.
The Cruise Carbon landing gear requires a regular pre-flight chec and an annual chec by
the manufacturer or technician authorized to extend the validation of the technical capability
(SLZ)
In the event of any damage to the (SLZ) part, the repair or replacement must be
carried prior to the next flight.
