Packing
The reserve parachute must be repacked by a trained professional, a properly
prepared pilot always has a basic understanding of how his or her equipment
functions. To that end, an overview of the packing process is provided here.
These are not comprehensive packing instructions.
The canopy and the lines are to be stretched out on dry and clean surface. Carefully
avoid twisting or wrapping the lines. String a packing line through the loops on the
upper part of the canopy.
When the packing is finished this line must be removed otherwise reserve parachute
cannot be used.

Folding begins at the line without triangle,as shown on the pic3. Picture 4 shows the
line with triangle.

Two neighboring lines are pulled together, leaving the cloth to make a fold in
between. This process is repeated for each panel, making the cloth fold regularly.

Each loop is secured at its end with an elastic packing ring. NEW RINGS SHOULD
BE USED FOR EACH PACKING. The loops are placed into the container. Half a
meter of line is left at the end out of the container.

The elastic ring used to close the container is threaded through the eyelets on the
container,starting from the oposite side eyelet, flaps to draw it closed.
The container is secured closed by making a loop in the remaining lines, and passing
the loop through the elastic holding the container closed. When the container is
thrown, it is this loop that will pull through the elastic and open the inner container,
deploying the rescue canopy.
pict 21-24
The whole canopy is to be packed into the supplied cover or harness. The handle
attached to the loop on the bottom part of the container.
The manufacturer can only attest to the safety and reliability of this system if a
trained professional following the proper processes packs it.
