Page 9: Care And Maintenance
CARE AND MAINTENANCE If you used a packing line, now completely remove it from the loops. Your Angel SQ is relatively maintenance-free, however there are several practices that need to be adhered to: Failure to do so will most certainly result in a deployment malfunction. • Keep your parachute free from exposure to UV, moisture, dirt, dust, chemicals or any other contaminates. • Always store all of your flying equipment in a cool dry room and protect it from direct heat such as radiators or sunlight. • Moisture, heat and humidity are the worst elements for damaging your parachute. • Your Angel SQ should be re-packed, preferably by a qualified packer every 6 months. The more often the reserve is repacked the better the chances of it opening quickly. -
