10. Verify that the brake setting measurements are correct. Tighten the overhand knot at the toggle once more. It is<br />
generally not a good idea to cut off the excess steering line, as you may want to adjust the steering toggles after the<br />
canopy has been jumped.<br />
11. Repeat the procedure for the other toggle.<br />
12. Inspect the installation. Ensure proper routing of the steering lines.<br />
METHOD B—SPECTRA STEERING LINES<br />
1. Ensure the steering lines are correctly routed (i.e. they should not wrap around any suspension lines). This is<br />
accomplished by starting at the tail of the canopy. Trace the upper steering lines down to the lower steering line.<br />
Check that the right hand steering line passes through the right hand rear slider grommet and the left hand steering<br />
line passes through the left hand rear slider grommet.<br />
2. Locate the mark on the steering line that<br />
indicates the correct toggle location. Verify correct<br />
location of this mark by referring to the reserve<br />
canopy owner’s manual.<br />
3. Thread the steering line through the guide ring<br />
that is located on the riser.<br />
4. Starting from the hook and loop fastener<br />
(loop side), thread the end of the steering line<br />
through the Vector 3 steering toggle grommet.<br />
Wrap the steering line around the outside of<br />
the toggle and then over the grommet. The<br />
mark on the steering line that indicates the<br />
correct toggle position should be 1 ¼ inches<br />
(3cm) from the side of the toggle.<br />
5. Slide the line off the looped end of the toggle<br />
and tie a loose overhand knot in the folded line.<br />
6. Now slide the line back over the toggle.<br />
Adjust the knot until the mark is just outside<br />
of the knot away from the toggle. The loop<br />
should fit closely around the toggle. Tighten<br />
the knot.<br />
note<br />
The mark on the<br />
steering line that<br />
indicates the correct<br />
toggle position<br />
should be 1 ¼ inches<br />
(3cm) from the side of<br />
the toggle.<br />
