About this Manual

This manual can not substitute for the knowledge and training you get in a proper riggers course.
The scope of this manual is also not to enable you to pack this reserve container without any basic
skills.
It is in the responsibility of every trained and licensed rigger to assemble, inspect
and pack to the manufacturers instructions, recommendations and his best
knowledge and ability before he seales and signs any packjob.
It is also in the resposibility of every user to stay within the limitations set by the
manufacturer regarding maintenance cycles, wing loadings and pack opening
speeds to not endanger himself nor his fellow skydiver friends !!
This manual is rather a guideline and a source of compact information, both for the owner and the
rigger.

Read Before Assembling

Since parachute components are manufactured and inspected by people, there is
always the possibility of human error in terms of defects.Therefore, inspect the
entire parachute system, Reserve, Harness/Container, Main Parachute and all
other functional components, before you beginn to assemble, pack or use any
parachute system.
Your NEXT should be assembled by a properly certified Rigger ( or equivalent
rated person in your country ).
Before assembling, be sure that the parachutes are compatible with this rig.
To check for compatability, refer to the chart on page 30 in this manual. Should
the pack volume of your parachute not fall under the figure in this chart, then
contact us immediately for further assistance.

parachute manufacturer's manual.
