System information

Packing the Reserve Container
Thread closing loop and pull up cord through Cypres
cutter and #1 closing flap. Use temporary pin to pin
closing loop in place. [Fig. 24]
Helpful Hint: Placing your foot on the #1 closing flap
while pulling up on the #4 and #5 side flaps, works the
canopy into the corners and away from the closing loop.
This is important for bulk distribution and proper pilot
chute seating and should be repeated often. Main riser
covers may be used after reserve side flaps are closed.
Push freebag into the reserve container, filling the
corners and make space for the reserve pilot chute.

Helpful Hint: Place your knee on the center freebag
grommet while pulling up on the #4 and #5 side flaps,
and work the canopy into the corners and away from
the center grommet. This is important for bulk distribu-
tion and proper pilot chute seating and should be
repeated often.
Starting at bridle line attachment point on freebag, lay
bridle as shown in Fig. 22. While distributing, remove
any twists in the bridle. Fold all but 3-4 ft of the bridle
under the #1 closing flap [Fig. 23].
