TOWING
The Enzo may be tow-launched. It is the pilot’s responsibility to
use suitable harness attachments and release mechanisms and to
ensure that they are correctly trained on the equipment and system
employed. All tow pilots should be qualified to tow, use a qualified tow
operator with proper, certified equipment, and make sure all towing
regulations are observed. When towing you must be certain that the
paraglider is completely above your head before you start. In each
case the maximum tow force needs to correspond to the body weight
of the pilot.
MODIFICATIONS
Your Ozone Enzo has designed and trimmed for high level pilots to
give the optimum balance of performance, handling and safety. Any
modification away from the certified specifications immediately invali-
dates certification and will adversely affect the behaviour of the wing.
The trim of the Enzo will naturally become slower after use. If this is
found to be the case, adjustments of the lines must be made to bring
the wing back to the correct trim. Consult a professional to measure
the lines accurately and to make any necessary adjustments.
Ozone strongly recommends that you do NOT modify your
glider in any other way.
the same strength and the same length. You can check its length
against its counterpart on the other side of the wing, to make sure
that it is symmetrical. Once the line has been replaced, inflate and
check the glider before flying. If you do not have access to an Ozone
dealer you can order individual lines at www.flyozone.com
MAINTENANCE CHECKS
The Enzo, like any aircraft needs to be checked regularly to ensure
proper airworthiness.
Your wing should be checked by a qualified professional for the first
time after 100 hrs or 12 months, whichever comes sooner and
thereafter annually. The checker should inform you about the condi-
tion of your glider and whether or not any parts need to be re-
checked or changed before the next normal service check period.
The sail and the lines do not age in the same way: it will be neces-
sary to change the line set during the wing’s life. This is why it is
also important to do a regularly check up to know the condition of all
of the components of the glider. We recommend that this check up
is carried out by a qualified professional. The lines should be changed
after approximately 150hrs to ensure that they retain their strength
and correct lengths,
You are responsible for your flying kit and your safety depends on it.
Take care of your equipment and have it regularly inspected. Changes
in a wings flying behaviour, are also indicators of the gliders aging,
if you notice any changes you should have the wing checked before
flying again.
IMPORTANT: The line set must be replaced at the recom-
mended interval…150 hrs.
IMPORTANT: Take care of your glider and make sure you
have it checked according to the above schedule.
