We are delighted that you have chosen

ADVANCE! Like all ADVANCE quality pro-

ducts the LIGHTNESS 2 is the result of

painstaking development, from the rst idea

right up to the nished production model.

By choosing ADVANCE you have selected

a manufacturer that has ranked among the

leading and most creative developers of

paragliders and harnesses since 1988.

For us, perfection always means the combi-

nation of ideal functioning and looks.

Welcome to ADVANCE

This guide gives you a brief look at dealing

with the LIGHTNESS 2, but does not re-

place the ocial manual in which you can

nd detailed information about setting

up, use in ight, care and maintenance,

and service.

The manual can be downloaded on

www.advance.ch/lightness.

www.advance.ch/warranty, so that you will

receive product updates and safety– related

advice about the LIGHTNESS 2 direct

from us. This information is always available

to download from our website on

www.advance.ch/safety.

Getting Started

The contents of the LIGHTNESS 2 Package

are made of lightweight materials, and

should be handled with care. The harness

and rucksack will give long and faithful ser-

vice – but only if treated carefully.

LIGHTNESS 2 products should never be

dragged over the ground. All the zips are

intended for light loadings and should never

be closed against high tension. Pointed and

sharp objects should never go in the har-

ness back compartment, the rucksack or

its side pockets: they can damage the

material. When accelerating make sure your

feet stay centred in the speedbag and

squarely on the carbon footboard, so that

your shoes do not strain and damage the

speedbag material.

Delivery

You can prepare your LIGHTNESS 2 for

its rst ight in only 5 quick and easy steps.

To do this we recommend that you hang

the harness up and proceed as follows:

1. Check the basic settings as your

start point

Make sure that all the harness and

speedbag lines are at their basic set-

tings ( loop bases at the white marks).

2. Adjust the speedbag length

Correct setting of the speedbag length is

fundamental. When this setting is correct

the seat surface ts you like a second skin;

there’s no slipping around – this is the foun-

dation stone of great comfort and long

ights.

The length of the speedbag (and therefore

the body centre of gravity position) sets the

speedbag (and harness) pitch attitude in

ight. When this is correct the underside of

the speedbag should be horizontal.

Adjusting the Harness

To adjust these lengths rst loosen the top

speedbag lines completely and then set

the lower speedbag lines ( heels) as re-

quired. Now the upper speedbag lines can

be pulled in as necessary to obtain a com-

fortable foot-on-the-board angle. Find

your settings in very small steps. Accurate

speed bag setting is everything.

3. Upper body angle

Set the recline angle of the back using the

back straps . Then you can adjust the

shoulder straps – not too tight. They

can be reasonably loose, or apply light sup-

port to the shoulders – but without applying

pressure on the shoulders.

4. Overall check

The lower surface of the speedbag should

be horizontal. If this is not the case change

your own centre of gravity position on the

harness by adjusting upper and lower

speed bag lines equally. It’s best to have an

observer check this speedbag angle. The

front edge of the harness seat shell should

not press into the backs of your knees.

5. Fine adjustment

Set the lower back strap to give you the

lumbar support you need. In addition this

strap helps you nd the best position if the

speedbag underside is still not horizontal.

By pulling in the thigh straps you can

increase the seat shell support under your

thighs, so that they lie relaxed.

Repeat the setting procedure after any ight

if you feel it necessary. A perfect t is best.

Installing a Reserve

Fitting a reserve should be done by a com-

petent person; your safety may depend on

it. Each step is described in detail in the

LIGHTNESS 2 manual.

Make sure that your reserve is within the

approved volume range for your

LIGHTNESS 2: Size S 3 – 5.5 litres, Size M

3 – 6 litres; Size L 3 – 6.5 litres. A very ap-

proximate volume estimate can be made

using the reserve weight in kilos and the fol-

lowing formula (kgs x 2.7 = litres).

Depending on packing skill and style it

could still be that a reserve of theoretically

acceptable volume (using this formula) may

not release properly from the harness. In

every case a compatibility check is the only

way to conrm that the relevant reserve/

harness combination will work safely and

reliably.
