:: CARING FOR YOUR MOJO
Many paragliders are damaged by careless ground handling. Here are
some things to avoid in order to prolong the life of your aircraft :
• DO NOT drag your wing along the ground to another take-off
position - this damages the sailcloth. Lift it up and carry it.
• DO NOT try to open your wing in strong winds without untangling
the lines first - this puts unnecessary strain on the lines.
• DO NOT walk on the wing or lines.
• DO NOT repeatedly inflate the glider and then allow it to crash
back down. Try to keep this movement as smooth as possible by
moving towards the glider as it comes down.
• DO NOT slam your Mojo down on the ground leading edge first!
This impact puts great strain on the wing and stitching and can
even explode cells.
• FLYING in salty air, in areas with abrasive surfaces (sand, rocks
etc.) and ground handling in strong winds will accelerate the
aging process.
It is recommended that you regularly CHECK your MOJO, especially
after a heavy period of use, after an incident or after a long period of
storage.
Storage
Always store all your flying equipment in a dry room, protected from
the direct heat.
Your wing should be dry before being packed away. Heat and
humidity are the worst factors in damaging your glider. (Storing a
damp glider in your car under the sun would be terrible for example).
Dry your wing preferably out of the sun, in the wind. Never use a hair
dryer, etc.
If you land in the salt water, you must clean it with fresh water first
and then dry it.
Take care that no insects get packed away with the wing they may
eat the cloth and make some holes in a bid to escape, they can also
leave acidic deposits if they die and decompose.
Cleaning
Any kind of wiping/scratching can damage the coating of the cloth.
We recommend for cleaning your MOJO, you use a soft cloth
dampened only with water and to use gentle movements little by
little across the surface.
Never use any detergent or chemical cleaners
Wing Repairs
Amateur repairs can do more harm than good. Always let a
registered dealer or the manufacturer carry out major glider repairs.
If you damage the sail:
If the rip is small, you can fix it yourself. You'll find all the materials
in the repair kit you need.
On the Gelvenor fabric, because of the silicon coating, the sticky
ripstop will not stick. You will have to use a very thin coat of silicone
glue, available from DIY shops, to stick a piece of Gelvenor cloth on
the tear.
The Porcher Marine fabric can be simply mended with the sticky rip
