ACCESS 2 AIRBAG

Product catalog summary

Introduction
The ACCESS 2 AIRBAG harness is designed for paragliding enthusiasts, emphasizing quality and durability. It meets European and German safety standards (EN 1651: 2018 and LTF Nfl II 91/09). Users should adjust the harness on static hang-posts before the first flight.

Technical Specifications
The harness is available in three sizes (S, M, L) for pilots between 155 cm to 195 cm in height and 55 kg to 120 kg in weight. It features an AIRBAG impact damping system and is compatible with tandem and towing setups. It includes a reserve parachute pocket with a 6-liter volume.

Size Choice
Choosing the correct size is crucial. A height/weight table is provided to assist in selection, and testing under a hanging device at a retailer is recommended.

Components List
The harness includes a reserve parachute handle, polypropylene seat plate, self-locking carabiners, and optional accessories like a mini bump and speed-bar system.

Harness Overview
Features adjustable leg buckles, chest straps, shoulder straps, and a backrest angle. It includes storage pockets and a reserve parachute pocket.

Accessories Assembly
Instructions are provided for assembling the seat plate, carabiners, mini bump, and speed-bar system, with specified compatibility.

Installing the Reserve Parachute
Detailed steps for connecting and installing the reserve parachute are provided, including riser connections. Professional assistance is recommended for initial setup.

Adjustments
Proper adjustment of the harness is essential for safety and comfort. Instructions cover adjusting the chest strap, shoulder straps, backrest, and leg straps.

Flight Phases
Guidance is provided for pre-flight checks, take-off, in-flight behavior, speed-bar use, and landing procedures.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance includes cleaning, storage, and checking for wear and tear. Conduct extraction tests for the reserve parachute every six months.

Warranty and Disclaimer
The product comes with a warranty, and users are advised to adhere to guidelines to ensure safety and product longevity.

Adjusting the Harness
Adjust the chest strap based on the distance between carabiners. Tightening increases stability but reduces efficiency, while loosening increases efficiency but can be dangerous in turbulence.

Connecting the Wing to the Harness
Connect risers to harness loops using self-locking carabiners, ensuring they are untwisted and properly positioned. Install and adjust the accelerator with no tension when relaxed.

Flight Behavior
The harness is stable and comfortable, suitable for beginners. Initial flights should be in stable conditions. Ensure all settings and connections are secure before flight.

Flight Phases
During takeoff, maintain a vertical posture. In flight, adjust carabiner distance according to conditions. During landing, maintain airspeed and land upwind in a standing posture.

Using the Reserve Parachute
Check the handle location frequently. Deploy only in emergencies, pulling the handle strongly and throwing it towards a clear area.

Towing
Use a quick release for towing, connecting the tow bridle to the wing riser loops with a Dyneema adaptor. Follow manufacturer's recommendations for safety.

Care and Maintenance
Clean with a brush and mild solvents, lubricate zippers, and regularly check carabiners and buckles. Store in a dry, cool place, protected from UV exposure. Inspect and replace carabiners every five years or after 500 hours of use.

Warranty and Disclaimer
SUPAIR offers a five-year limited warranty against manufacturing defects. The harness is designed exclusively for paragliding.

Airbag Shock Absorber
The AIRBAG shock absorber complies with EU regulations and provides impact protection. Inspect regularly and ensure proper installation before each flight. It has a five-year lifespan under normal use conditions.
