The only admissible repairs done on lines are those where the damaged lines are changed for
new ones. Lines must be exclusively supplied by Gradient, an authorised dealer or authorised
service centre. When ordering new lines use the codes in the aached line diagram. Use the
code “G4” (Golden4) and tell us the size your glider followed by the line code. For example,
the outside long line in row A for a Golden4 28 is: ‘G4 28 A 1.3.’
An excepon to this is an emergency repair while out ying. For this purpose Gradient
encloses a spare line with every Golden4 with a prepared loop on one end. To get the right
length adjust it according to the same line on the opposite side of the canopy and then, if
necessary, aach your brake handle. As soon as you can, change the line for an original one
from your authorised Gradient service centre.
Aer changing any lines a thorough pre-ight check must be done. Don’t hesitate to ask your
instructor or an experienced colleague for help. If you’re not sure, entrust the job to either
the manufacturer or an authorised Gradient dealer.
9. Enjoy your ying
Even though the Golden4 has outstanding performance and stability it must be understood
that even the safest paraglider is an aircra and that all air sports can be relavely dangerous.
Remember that your safety lies in your own hands and that “lucky pilots are well prepared
pilots”.
Never underesmate weather condions. And never forget that you are ying for pleasure
and not to become a ‘fallen hero’. Remember this and the fun that only free-ying can bring
will be yours.
We believe that your sensible atude and the ight characteriscs of your Golden4 will
combine to ensure you have many hours of fantasc ying.
GRADIENT wishes you many fabulous ights and happy landings.
