TEAR DROP 1 PIN OWNERS MANUAL
Because of the size range of square reserve canopies available today, this manual does
not contain instructions on inspection, assembling and flaking. Please follow the
packing instructions of your reserve manufacturers' manual.
TOOLS REQUIRED
1 X T Bar
1 X Pull up cord
1 X Packing paddle

Thoroughly inspect the pilot chute bridle,
deployment bag, canopy, lines, links, loop,
risers, container and harness.
2.
Follow canopy manufactures instructions
for
A.
Attaching the canopy to risers.
B.
Attaching toggles to steering lines.

Flaking canopy.
D.
Folding the nose of the canopy.
E.
Setting deployment brakes.
F.
Splitting the tail.
G.
Stowing the slider.
H.

3.
Prepare the free bag so that it is ready to
be packed. To do this, insert one end of the
pull up cord through the grommet in the top
and bottom of the bag, and tie it to the other
end so that it won't slip out during
the packing procedure. NOTE; Some
riggers prefer to use a T bar instead of a
pull up cord. Insert the T bar through the
bag from the bottom. The T bar or pull up
cord will be used later to pull the loop
through the bagged canopy.
