8. Storing and looking after the glider
Always transport your Swing Spitfire in the speed bag provided.
Store your speedriding equipment away from UV light in a dry room which is well-ventilated and has a
constant temperature. Remove it from the convertible harness backpack and open the speed bag so that air
can get in.
Make sure that you do not store the Swing Spitfire while it is wet. It should always be dried out after use,
preferably overnight in a room as described above.
If you do need to clean the speed rider, then use only a soft sponge and clear water.
Important:
• Harsh chemical cleaners, high-pressure cleaners/steamers will destroy the speed rider.
• Clean the speed rider only if it is absolutely necessary.
• Repairs should only be carried out by Swing Flugsportgeräte GmbH or a specialist we recommend.
• Small tears in the wing can be repaired using self-adhesive rip-stop material, provided that they are in
places which do not bear heavy loads, are not at the seams and are no bigger than 3 cm.
• Replace damaged lines immediately!!!
• The Spitfire has to be inspected every 100 flight hours or once a year, depending what comes first. If any
damaged or worn-out parts need to be replaced, use only original parts from Swing Flugsportgeräte
GmbH.
