4) steering lines, brake lock loops and toggle attachment
While inspecting the steering lines watch for damage especially at the brake lock loops, the toggle attachment points
and at the attachment points at the canopy.
5) slider condition
Check the slider grommets for any wear (dings, nicks, sharp surfaces). Check the entire slider for holes, burns or
fraying.
6) connector links
Ensure that the link protectors are secure. If no link protectors are present then check to ensure that the omission is
intentional and that the connector link barrels have not loosened.
Rigger Note: Using “Mechanics Loc-Tite” on the barrel threads, and marking the barrel and link with a brightly
colored paint line may help to insure the barrels tightness and speed up link inspection.
