FITTING THE WEIGHT-SHIFT HARNESS

The weight-shift design enables pilots to control flight direction purely by shifting centre
of gravity in the harness. To do this simply lean in the desired direction and swing one
leg over the other to aentuate the turn. This creates a very efficient smooth turn which
requires no brake input.
Fitting the weight-shift harness:
1. Start by locking the harnesses upper
retaining bar onto the chassis as shown
below. NB. Ensure Button Clip locates
properly and pops into hole as arrowed..
2. At the base of the harness on the
reverse side there are 2 steel rings
pressed into the webbing tabs. These
line up with 2 corresponding M6
threaded inserts located in each chassis
upright approximately 10cm from the
base.
WARNING!!! Use of the powered paraglider is at your own risk.
3. Using the two M6 x 12mm socket screws
and large flange washers tighten the harness
webbing into position against the chassis
uprights.
4. At the front of the harness are 2 webbing
loops. Using the stainless steel shackles
attached to the swing arms attach the
webbing loops to the first hole in the swing
arm.
5. Attach carabiner connection points to the
corresponding weight setting on the swing
arms. (See next page)
