OWNERS INSTRUCTION & SAFETY MANUAL :: V2.2 :: NOV 2014
Weight-shift harness
adjustment
The Parajet paramotor harness is a mid/
low hang point system. Parajet has always
been a strong advocate of the mid/low
hang point attachment and it has been a
permanent feature throughout their range
of paramotors.
Parajet’s innovative design offers
improved wing feedback and an optimised
thrust line while removing the normal
swing or rocking motion found under
throttle.
This combination of mid/low hang point
attachment and articulated pivot arms
culminates in the ability for the pilot to
control direction without the ongoing
control input. Known as weight-shift,
this dynamic feature works through the
pilot’s weight effecting the orientation
of the pivot arms, which in turn provides
input into the wing. Weight-shift enables
pilots to emanate the agile characteristics
of free-flight with manoeuvrability so
precise, that the paramotor feels like an
extension of their body.
To achieve the
best flying characteristics of the
harness it is important that you
spend time to fully understand the
adjustment system and set it up for
your optimum weight setting. Failure
to do this accurately will result in
poor handling, an uncomfortable
flying experience and could lead to
a potentially hazardous accident.
The harness should be adjusted to suit
both your physique and flying style. It is
important to adjust it correctly to ensure
you can easily slide into the sitting
position after take-off.
While we have endeavoured to provide
concise and accurate instructions for
harness adjustment, we recommend that
these be tested before your first flight by
hanging in a simulator with the aid of a
qualified paramotor instructor.
Due to the dynamic nature of the harness,
additional fine-tuning of adjustments
maybe required during your first few
flights to ensure optimum comfort.
Pilot weight
adjustment guide
NOTE: The above pilot weights are for
reference and as a starting point only. We
highly recommend you undertake a hang-
test with a qualified instructor to finalise
your preferred settings before flight.
Adjusting the harness
offset pins
The Parajet paramotor harness is shipped
with the offset pins already attached to
the pivot arms. Always ensure the offset
pins are installed on the correct side of
the pivot arm for your engine.

To adjust the offset pins, unfasten
the 6mm attachment bolts from the
pivot arm.
Locate the offset pin to the desired
position on the pivot arm based
on your weight range (see guide
above).
Secure the offset pin in place using
the attachment bolts, tightened to
20 Nm.
Adjusting the harness straps
The Parajet paramotor harness has been
designed to offer maximum adjustment to
give you many hours of comfort, freeing
you up to enjoying your flying. The harness
should be adjusted to suit your physique
and flying style. It is important to adjust
the harness correctly to ensure you can
easily slide into the sitting position after
take-off. Before making any adjustments,
loosen all straps and webbing.
Leg Straps
Correct adjustment of the leg straps
enables you to easily deploy the seatboard
and reach the sitting position after take-
off without using your hands. In the
standing position, use the quick-release
buckle to secure each strap around the
thigh. Symmetrically adjust the leg straps
using the handle loops so that they fit
comfortably without being tight.
Waist Strap
The waist strap adjusts to give you
a variable level of movement within
the harness. The waist strap may also
be adjusted in flight according to the
conditions; for example, it may be
tightened in turbulent air and flown at a
looser setting in less turbulent conditions
to allow for easier weight shift.

OWNERS INSTRUCTION & SAFETY MANUAL :: V2.2 :: NOV 2014
Chest Strap
The chest strap can be moved up and down
the shoulder straps. Adjust the position of
strap to fit across the upper part of your
chest. Then fasten the quick-release
buckle and adjust the length to take some
lateral tension off the shoulders.
Shoulder Straps
The optimum setting for the shoulder
straps depends on your height. Stand
upright with the chest and leg straps
fastened and symmetrically adjust the
shoulder straps using the handle loops
until the straps are a snug fit, but not over
tight. To confirm correct adjustment squat
down into the harness, the seatboard
should deploy automatically.
Lateral Comfort Straps
The lateral straps adjust to stabilize the
weight of the paramotor when not in the
seating position. Symmetrically adjust
the comfort straps using the handle loops
until the paramotor rests comfortably on
your torso.
Seatboard Straps
The seatboard straps change the depth
of the seat. Adjust to find a comfortable
position. Lengthening the straps helps
you to slide easily into the harness at take
off, while shortening the straps helps you
to be in the standing position for landing.
Fueling your paramotor
The Parajet Zenith paramotor uses a
2-stroke petrol engine that requires a
mixture of oil and fuel in the ratio of 1:50.
Therefore you need to add 20cc (or ml) of
synthetic oil for each litre of fuel.
Your engine has been designed to use
regular unleaded gasoline with a pump
octane number [(R+M)/2] of 95 or higher.
We recommend the use of Castrol Power
1 Racing 2T and Mobil 1 Racing 2T or
equivalent fully synthetic 2-stroke oil.
Please check your engine manufacturer’s
usermanualfordetailedfuelrequirements.
NOTE: The nature of the carbon deposits
on the cylinder head, spark plug and
exhaust port give important information
about the fuel mixture burning in your
engine. Remember that mixes that contain
too much or too little oil do not extend the
engine’s life.
Gasoline and
gasoline vapors are extremely
flammable. To avoid fires and
explosions and to reduce the risk of
injury, never re-fuel while smoking,
or while in the vicinity of sparks,
open flames, or other sources
of ignition. Carry out re-fuelling
operations in a well ventilate place
and with the engine switched off.
Always make sure that the fuel cap
is properly fitted after re-fuelling.
Carburettor Settings
The engine utilises a carburettor which
atomises the fuel, controlling its mixture
with air, and regulating the intake of the
air-petrol mixture into the engine.
The carburettor can be effected by climatic
conditions causing it to behave differently
and therefore will require adjustment in
order to ensure a smooth running engine.
The engine is shipped with the carburettor
set to a default factory setting suitable
for general use and will ensure plenty of
fuel is entering the engine. If the engine is
performing well under this factory setting,
then it is possible you will not need to
make any adjustments.
NOTE: It is important to thoroughly read
and understand the carburettor settings
and adjustment, as outlined in the engine
manufacturer’s user manual.
Failure to understand these procedures
may lead to incorrect or dangerous
settings and can cause irreparable engine
damage and invalidates the engine and
paramotor warranty.
Getting into the harness
Before getting into the harness,
attach hand control to the pivot
arm, loosen the shoulder straps and
ensure leg, waist and chest buckles
are unfastened. Ensure straps are
untangled and positioned to aid
you in locating them once in the
harness.
Drop onto your knees with the
harness behind you. Shuffle
backwards until the seatboard is
pressed against your upper legs.
Fasten both leg straps using the
quick-release buckles. Slip both
arms into the shoulder straps before
fasthening the waist and chest
straps.
Lean forward onto both hands.
Bring your left knee to your chest so
that your foot is flat on the ground.
Repeat the same with the right foot,
using your hands to steady yourself.
Keeping your body tight, straighten
yourself upright while driving
through your heels, keep the balls of
your feet on the ground as well, until
you are in the standing position.
Tighten the shoulder straps using
the handle loops until the straps
are a snug fit, but not over tight.
To confirm correct adjustment
squat down into the harness
- the seatboard should deploy
automatically.
Prior to starting the engine
We recommend that you do not run your
Parajet Zenith paramotor while placed on
the ground. Be sure to choose a flat area
of ground which is well ventilated. Do not
start the engine indoors or in other poorly
ventilated areas.
NOTE: Experience has proven that it is
much safer to carry out all pre-flight
power checks with the paramotor firmly
strapped on your back.

Parajet Zenith Paramotor
‘Harness to Hub’ Pre and Post-Flight Safety Checklist
Flying your Parajet Zenith paramotor is renowned for its safety due to the meticulous assembly procedures and small batch production,
which ensures the highest level of quality control. However, it is good practice that you carry out a thorough check of your equipment
both before and after EVERY flight.
The Harness to Hub Safety Check should only take around 15 minutes to complete. These checks will help you familiarise yourself with
your paramotor and enable you to identify wear and tear or any potential mechanical problems while safely on the ground.
Should any issues occur during your Harness to Hub Safety Check it is highly recommend that you DO NOT start the engine or attempt
to fly your paramotor until you have had the chance to make adequate repairs or fit replacement parts. You do so at your own risk.
