II. Place the instrument
1. Syride suggests to place your
instrument on the risers. 2 velcros
ables you to place it on any existing
riser. Take care not to « lock » your
rope or pulley accelerator.This position
ables you to manipulate the instrument
while flying without releasing the
brakes.
We recommend you to insert a
protection between the velcro and
your riser in order to avoid the
abrasion of it.
2. Velcros also allow placing the
instrument on a cockpit in thigh (with
extension) or on the wrist.
3. You can secure your instrument by
using the strap provided for this
purpose.
