Care, Maintenance and Repairs

The Gin rescue parachute should be repacked at least every 6 months, as detailed

in the packing instructions. We always recommend that this rescue parachute is

inspected and repacked by a trained professional repacker. Additional inspections

should be performed if there is any suspicion of damage or undue wear.

After a deployment, the rescue should be checked by the distributor or

manufacturer. Always seek professional advice whenever in doubt.

The materials used in the GIN rescue have been carefully selected for maximum

durability. Nevertheless, maintaining your rescue following the guidelines below

will extend its lifetime.

It is recommended that a rescue is replaced after 10 years, even if it has never

been used.

Care and Maintenance

Unnecessary exposure to UV rays, heat and humidity should always be avoided.

Keep your harness and rescue in your rucksack when not in use.

Store all your paragliding equipment in a cool, dry place, and away from solvents

such as grease, acid, oil and paint.

Never put your rescue away while damp or wet.

If your rescue parachute does ever get wet (i.e. water landings or snow) you must

remove it from the harness, dry it naturally in the air, and repack it before putting

it back into the container.

A dirty rescue canopy or container can be cleaned with lukewarm water. Mild, neutral

soap may be used if necessary, but do not rub the fabric. Rinse the canopy thoroughly and

allow it to dry naturally. If the canopy shows signs of mildew or mould, it must be sent to

the distributor or manufacturer for repairs, as the strength could be compromised.

If the rescue is to be stored for an extended period, the canopy should be opened

and loosely rolled.

Repairs

Any repairs should only be carried out by the manufacturer or by an approved

agent. This will ensure that the correct materials and repair techniques are used.
