    INTRODUCTION This manual has been prepared to provide pilots and instructors information to contribute safe and efficient operation of this paramotor trike. It contains important legal information, additional information from the manufacturer of the trike. To fly this aircraft a licens for paramotor trike is required and the authorization for two-seater flying when a passenger is on board.

Shall subsequently equipment installed which increase the empty weight, the load must be reduced. The pilot is responsible for compliance with the maximum takeoff weight.

  • Page 16 OPERATION AND FLYING PARAGLIDER UNFOLD AND PRE FLIGHT CHECK Unfold Place the paraglider with the top surface to the bottom and spread so that the leading edge is draped in a big curve Carefully separate all the lines and make sure that no lines are underneath the canopy, tangled or somewhere to hang.
  • Page 17 6-POINT CHECK Just before the start we recommend the 6-point check: Is the canopy arranged in a half round, and all entry ports are open? Are all the lines untangled there are no lines under the canopy? Are the clothes and the helmet closed , the seat belt is applied ist die Lehne des vorderen Sitzes gesichert? Trimm´s closed, Brake handle ready to hand? Wind strength and direction in order for safe flight?
  • Page 18 Adjusting Bake Lines Note! The main brake lines must be checked by an expert before the first test of the paraglider. Correct Adjust Properly installed brake lines have almost no flow. This means you have to pull the brakes down a little until the trailing edge of the canopy starts to move downwards and start braking.

  • Page 19: Start Up Device

    TRIMMS Accident risk! With increased speed disorders (collapses) affect more drastic than in unaccelerated flightIn turbulent weather conditions do not fly close to the ground when the trim´s are open. The trim´s are operated by the lever The trim´s should be adjusted so that the X-Light in cruise flies straight. Start Up Device The glider starts easier when the start up device is activated.
  • Page 20 ROLL The nose wheel steering is easy to learn. Do some taxi tests at yourself. Get familiar before your first flight. When rolling get control by means of pedals. If the glider is in the air, you have the control coordinates as well by using the brake lines. START AND CLIMBING Start agianst the wind.

  • Page 21: Ground Handling

    CRUISE The torque effect can be compensated by means of the trimmer (Pic. Page 13 ) . Speed control maintains the travel speed constant ((Pic. Page 8 ). LANDING The landing should always be against the wind. Close the trims and reduce the engine speed. Take the brake handles, Start with the braking in 5-8 m height If the brakes started too early can be landed with engine support The glider should after landing fall behind the Trike PARK...

  • Page 22: Flights Under Special Conditions

    FLIGHTS UNDER SPECIAL CONDITIONS Rain Basically belongs to every conscientious flight preparation the look of the weather situation, so that "really" no flights in rain should be necessary. Nevertheless, each pilot can fall into worse unpredictable weather conditions. In general: No flights in the rain, as soon as possible to land! In very light rain the flight can be continued at first.
  • Page 23 Start,Flight,Landing: Here are some supplements that goes beyond the description of the first flight If the glider falls too far on the side, do not continue the take off procedure. It is better to cancel two times the start than one time to get up side down. If the glider is already collapsed while pulling up try to get clear by pumping the brake lines.
  • Page 24 FLYING UNDER TURBULENT CONDITIONS Note! Take care crossing your own vortexes! Though the tendency to collapse is significantly reduced due to the high wing load of the X-LIGHT, in turbulent air you should fly it with the trim system set to slow. The stabilizing effect of the increased pressure inside the wing at higher speeds is more than counteracted by the smaller angle of attack.
  • Page 25 LANDING WITH ENGINE SHUT OFF In principle landing with the engine shut off is the same as if it is still running – always facing the wind. But the speed should be kept up high enough for a prop flaring. So hold the brake lines up until you are roughly 2 m high. You should win them 1x around your hand to have more brake travel.

  • Page 26: Rapid Descents

    RAPID DESCENTS There are many situations when you need to lose altitude rapidly to avoid potential dangers e.g. pulled up from a cumulus cloud, an approaching cold front, a storm front etc. Below we explain various ways to make a rapid descent which can be carried out safely with the X-LIGHT if the pilot has the necessary knowledge and if they are correctly executed.

  • Page 27: Deep Stall

    INSTRUCTIONS FOR EXTREME FLYING AND DANGEROUS SITUATIONS DANGEROUS SITUATIONS Extreme flying with a motor trike and full gas are extremely dangerous and therefore cannot be tested. They must be avoided at all costs. Problems do not arise during a normal flight. However, pilot error during the flight or extreme wind conditions may force the wing into an unusual flying position.

  • Page 28: Full Stall

    Caution! Accident risk! Counter-braking too strongly can result in a stall on the inflated side. FULL STALL A full stall could occur if full brake is applied during the flight. The paraglider slows down, surges backwards and deflates. If the brakes are held down, the canopy comes up over the pilot again.

  • Page 29: Break-In Phase

    Break-In Phase The engine should no longer run at full load for the first 2 hours of operation Revolution The engine is set so that the maximum engine speed is 6300 rpm. If the maximum speed is higher or lower, this can be adjusted via the pitch on the propeller.
  • Page 30 Before the engine can be started, the ball pump # 1 must be used to pump gasoline from the tank to the carburettor. At the same time the tipper # 2 is pressed on the carburettor. Pump each per carburetor for one second.

  • Page 31: Daily Inspection

    DAILY INSPECTION The safety of an aircraft depends on his regular, diligent inspection and maintenance. Engine: Pay attention to leaks Check propeller for tightness and damage. Check the frame and cage for cracking, paying particular attention to the areas of the belt and the engine mount.

  • Page 34 The Boxer is equipped with 2 diaphragm carburettors WB 37. The carburetors do not need to be synchronized because both cylinders are seated on a non-separated crankcase. Nevertheless, the adjusting screws 1, 2 and 3 should be as synchronous as possible. 1 = Throttle valve stop for idle adjustment 2 = partial setting (basic setting 1 turn) 3 = full setting (basic setting 1 turn)
