WARNING
PARACHUTING IS A HAZARDOUS ACTIVITY
THAT CAN RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH
Even though the parachutes described in this manual are
intended to be life saving devices, there is no guarantee
that they will work if needed.
There are so many factors, both human and natural,
beyond our control that we want you to clearly
understand that by using or intending to use our
parachutes, you are assuming a considerable risk of
personal injury or death.
DISCLAIMER
There are NO WARRANTIES which extend beyond the
description of the parachutes in this manual, and neither
the seller nor any agent of the seller has made any
affirmation of fact or promise with respect to the
parachutes except those that appear therein.
The liability of the seller is limited to the duty to replace
defective parts found upon examination by the
manufacturer to be defective in material or workmanship
within 7 days after purchase and found not to have been
caused by any accident, improper use, alteration,
tampering, abuse or lack of care on the part of the
purchaser.

Introduction
NOTE. We require that the rigger packing these canopies be completely familiar with ram-air
type parachutes. Although we do not require a special rating, the owner/jumper should be sure
that the rigger thoroughly understands a ram-air parachute. Having a square reserve on
backwards would be a serious matter!
Lay the harness and container on a smooth clean surface as if the wearer were face down, head
toward the canopy. Lay the canopy out and straighten the line groups. The front first and second
line groups go to the front risers, the third and fourth line groups go to the rear risers. The
smooth side of the grommets in the slider goes toward the harness.
Attach the connector links to the corresponding risers temporarily and do a complete continuity
check on each link to insure proper sequence, and then tighten the links. Clear each set (left and
right) of upper control lines (steering lines). Lower control lines should pass through the rear
grommets of the slider (clear of the suspension lines) then through the Type I webbing guide
loop located on the rear riser just below the L-link and then through their respective guide rings
on the rear risers. Attach the steering toggles to the lower control lines by inserting the looped
lower end of the lower control line through the grommet in the toggle from the Velcro® side,
and then passing the bottom end of the toggle through the loop and cinching the loop snug
around the toggle. If practical, the rigger should then carefully inflate the reserve as a final
continuity and assembly check.
Pass the long bridle webbing through the deployment bag’s loop, then pass the large loop end of
the webbing through the smaller loop end and cinch snug. Next pass the large loop end of the
bridle through the pilot chute’s loop, and then pass the entire pilot chute through the large loop
of the bridle.
WARNING! This bag assembly must not be attached to the reserve canopy.
