Check; Environment Friendly Behaviour; Disposal - Nova MENTOR 3 Manual

Check

We suggest a trim inspection (Nova Trim Tuning NTT) in the first year after the
date of purchase (new glider). In the case that the NTT is done, the next full
check (NFS: NOVA full service) has to be done 3 years after purchase (new
glider).
In the case of commercially used gliders, (tandems or school gliders) the NFS
has to be performed every year.
In the case that the NTT is not done, the wing needs a full check after 2 years.
The check expert can define the next check interval on the basis of the wing's
condition. In areas where conditions are harsh on the material (i.e. by salty air
next to the coast), an annual complete check (NFS) is strongly recommended!
The check has to be confirmed with the check-stamp on the stabilo. All
necessary documents for the inspection can be found on the NOVA homepage
(http://www.nova-wings.com): Downloads: Check.
The date of purchase of the new glider is decisive for any deadline
concerning NTT and NFS, as well as for guarantee.
Independent from the deadlines mentioned above:
A check (NFS) has to be performed not later than after 200 hours of flight, or
after 400 flights. (Depending on what happens first.)

Environment friendly behaviour:

Apart from self-evident things, like not leaving your rubbish behind, we would
like to appeal for a thoughtful behaviour towards animals, like birds of prey or
game animals. If you notice, that your fly by affects those animals (like
causing a shortening reaction) please increase your distance.

Disposal

Disused paragliders need a proper disposal. If you are not sure about the correct
removal, please send your glider to NOVA.
