Pre-Flight Inspection And Adjustments; Pre-Flight Paramotor Inspection - Air Conception REVOLUTION 200 Instruction Manual

6. Pre-flight inspection and adjustments

6.1 Pre-flight paramotor inspection

Checking up the paramotor before taking off includes obligatory inspection of the propeller
cage mount and gas throttle performance. The propeller inspection entails checking that it is
mounted securely and inspecting for mechanical damages or cracks.

The propeller should rotate steadily, and silently. Vibrations or whistles indicate blade
damage.
Never put your hands into the propeller space when the engine is on, even if
the propeller does not rotate.
Never turn on the engine without mounted and secured propeller cage.
Never leave the paramotor turned on without supervision, especially with the
gas throttle lying on the ground. If you step on it accidentally it may cause serious
injuries.
 Check harness, tapes, joints and carabiners. Check the condition of all rubber parts of
the paramotor. Check all the accessible screws - whether they are not broken,
missing, loosened. Check the engine power supply system and fuel pipes – whether
there are no leaks that could lead to sucking-in the "fake" air.
 Check the mounting of the engine, the exhaust system, mounting of the airbox,
silencer with its clamp, and pay special attention to the condition of rubber parts.
 Check the propeller cage ropes, speed ropes and footstool. Make sure that starting
the engine will not suck in other objects by the propeller – i.e. gloves, radio cables,
helmet or loose clothing parts. Make sure that turning the engine on will not pose any
threat to other objects or third party.

Monitoring the engine technical state after each flight is strongly advised. By doing this
you can avoid mistakes during the pre-flight as you rush to get in the sky.
Never perform maximum thrust test with the paramotor standing on the
ground. If you want to do this, put the paramotor with the turned off engine on
your back and then turn the engine on.

We advise you to start up the engine while keeping it on your back and then to lean
slightly forward to perform an high speed test (it should take a few seconds). It will help you
to "push" any rest of the air into fuel system and it will warm up the engine to the optimal
temperature. Moreover, it will enable you to evaluate how the engine is running on high
speed.
