STOWING THE CANOPY
Stow the canopy over the suspension line free bag deployment pouch on the inside bottom of the pack
tray as follows:
NOTE
Canopy skirt will be placed at the right side end of the pack tray.
Attention will be given so that the air channel separating each
canopy line group is centered during the completion of the
accordion folds. Failure to do so could cause the ejector spring to
shift.
1. Release tension on the canopy and disconnect the tension device from the vent lines. Locate the
apex sock on the bridle line and straighten.
NOTE
The elastic portion of the apex sock must be positioned below the
upper lateral band. Attention must be given so that both canopy line
groups are centered during accordion fold. Failure to do so could
cause the ejector spring to shift out if position.
2. Grasp the upper lateral band and slide the apex sock, elastic end first, over the upper lateral band.
