- Page 10 Your paramotor has a simple and very effective fuel system which gives you approx 3 hours of autonomy. It has 14 l tank with maintenance-free air valve and priming pump located on the frame. The tank is secured to the frame with 3 bolts (Sky100 Light with 2 bolts). Check them after every 10 flights.
- Page 11 Pre flight check Most incidents, failures, mistakes, etc., on a paramotor could be easily avoided, or at least, minimized if the pilot would regularly go through a pre-flight check. In fact, all other air disciplines go through a COMPULSORY pre-flight check by means of a check-list. This works as a previous procedure against failures and, most important, to avoid accidents.
- Page 12 Bearing check - Place a foot on the lower frame and take the propeller with both hands. Then shake gently the propeller to see if it is well fixed. This is to test the bearings in the reduction casing and also to check that the engine is properly mounted and firmly fixed onto the frame.
- Page 13 Push and hold the membrane on the At the same time squeeze the priming pump 1-2 carburator times Close the choke on the carburator. It should be perpendicular ie. points toward the pilot. Put your feet firmly so you will nave a strong support in order to avoid falling down or unbalancing when you pull the start chord.
- Page 14 Take the start chord handle and pull it very gently till you find a resistance point. This point is called the minimum point of compression. Starting pulling from that point helps to start the engine more easily and also will give a longer life your pull start system. Now pull firmly the start chord.
- Page 15 Your engine should now be running on Tick over. If your propeller is turning it means that the idle is set to high either your clutch is badly adjusted or broken. Set your idle or tick over by firstly switching off your engine. With a small screw driver, turn the idle screw till tick over is reached (For tick over setting turn to page of you engine manual).
