WARNING: The connection between the
reserve handle and the deployment bag must
not be too short. The connection must be long
enough to allow the pins to release before the
handle comes under tension. Ensure this is the
case with a practice deployment.

RESCUE HANDLE ATTACHMENT
Thereserveparachutehandlemustbeattachedtothecentralloopofthedeploymentbag.Ifyourdeploymentbagdoesnothave
acentralloopthenyoushouldchangeitforonethatdoes.Attachingthehandletothesideloopmaymakethesystemineffective,
andpreventtheparachutefromdeploying.
Toinstallareserveparachuteyoushouldrstpacktheparachutesothatitmatchestheshapeanddimensionsofthedeployment
bag/container.
Attachthehandletothecentralloopusingalarksfoot.
1. Passthehandlethroughthecentralloop.
2. Loopthehandlebackthroughitselftomakealarksfoot
connection.
BRIDLE CONNECTION
Ifyouhaveaparachutewithashortbridle,thenyouneedtoattachittoanOzoneYbridle(not

directlytothecarabiners,ordirectlytotheshoulderparachuteattachmentsifyourharnessfeatures
them.IfyouareorderinganAngelparachutethatisintendedtobeusedwiththefrontcontainer

CONNECTION TO THE HARNESS
Thefrontcontainercanbeusedwithalmostanyharness.Werecommendthatthebridlesareattacheddirectlytothemaincarabiners
asthisistheneatestsolution,alternativelyyoucanattachthebridlestodedicatedshoulderattachmentpointsifyourharnesshasthem
andyourbridlesareofsufcientlength.Ensurethecarabinergateswillnotinterferewiththebridleloops,youmayneedtoreversethe
carabiners’orientationonthehangpointtoachievethis.

Eitherattachthewing’srisersrstandthentheparachute’s,keepingtheloopsabovethecarabinergate,oralternativelyreversethedirectionofthe
carabinersandattachtheparachutebeforetherisers.Red=Left,Blue=Right.
ThePPGLitecontainershouldbesecuredtoasuitablepositionontheharnessusingthestraps.
IMPORTANT: Ensure the bridles are installed correctly on the carabiners.
WARNING: Ozone strongly recommends that the reserve parachute system is installed by a qualied professional.
Always seek experienced advice if you have any doubts.
Makesureyouperformapracticethrowfromastatichangpoint.Notonlydoesthisensurethecorrectfunctioningofyourdeploymentsystemitalso
allowsyoutobecomemorefamiliarwiththenecessarydeploymenttechniqueandtheinstallationprocess.
