Pre-Delivery Control; Guarantee; Disposal - SKY PARAGLIDERS KUDOS XS Mode D'emploi

• Do not drag it across the ground when moving it.
• Do not expose it unnecessarily to sunlight.
• Choose a folding technique that does not damage the
leading edge stiffeners or excessively crease the internal
structure. To maximize the life of your glider we do not
recommend the use of stuff sacks (quick packs): the
abrasion of the material can decrease the life expectancy
of the fabric – in particular, its internal structure.
• Always use the protective bag supplied to avoid direct
contact with the harness and buckles or any abrasion
between the wing and the carry rucksack.
• Never store your paraglider when it is damp. If immersed
in seawater rinse thoroughly in fresh water. Do not use any
detergents.
• Dry your paraglider away from direct sunlight in a dry and
well-ventilated environment.
• Regularly empty any foreign bodies from your paraglider.
e.g. sand, stones, animal/vegetable matter (which may
eventually decay). Twigs, sand, pebbles, etc ... damage
tissue in successive folds and organic debris of vegetable
or animal origin (insects) can promote mould growth.

5.2. Pre-delivery Control

The paraglider has undergone a series of tests during the
production process and consequent flight tests before delivery.
It is delivered with the same brake setting as used during
certification.
Periodic Checks & Repairs:
For safety reasons it is recommended that the paraglider be
checked at least once a year or after 100 flights, or if you detect
a change in its behaviour. The manufacturer or an authorized
representative should perform this check. Before sending the
paraglider for an inspection contact your importer or your
dealer. Have your wing additionally checked if you notice
damage or a change in flight behaviour.
Spare parts
Your SKY wing consists of many high quality long-life
components.
When replacing parts, (lines, risers, fabric panels, etc.),
only original parts may be used. In addition to the continued
airworthiness of your paraglider this is important for your safety
as well.

5.3. Guarantee

Your KUDOS is guaranteed for two years against any
manufacturing defect, from the date of purchase. The warranty
does not cover:
• Damage caused by misuse, neglect of regular
maintenance, or glider overload.
• Damage caused by improper landings.
If you have any questions regarding the information in this
manual, contact your SKY dealer.

6. DISPOSAL

Even the best products have a limited service life, and once
your glider reaches this point, it must be disposed of properly.
Please make sure your paraglider is disposed of in the correct
environmental manner or send it back to Sky Paragliders for
correct disposal. In case of any doubts regarding the information
in the manual, contact your SKY dealer.
