To remove twists, grasp the top and bottom inside lines (lines 1 and 14 left group) or ( 28 and 15 right
group) at the skirt of canopy and trace them to the connector links.
Remove twists from one group at a time by rotating risers until lines are in proper location on the
connector links. Do not remove suspension lines from connector links. If in doubt, perform a line
continuity check.
LOCATING SUSPENSION LINES
NOTE
Suspension lines are divided into two groups, 1 thru 14 are in the left group and 15 thru
28 are in the right group.
1. Group separation. With left group (figure 10, item 1) in left hand and right group (figure 10, item 2)
in right hand, trace from the connector links to the anti-inversion net (figure 10, item 3).
2. Locate the top center gore (figure 11, item 1) of the canopy.
3. Check the suspension lines for proper layout. Left group (figure 11, item 2) should have line number
1 on the inside of the top connector link and line number 14 on the inside of the bottom connector
link. The right group (figure 11, item 3) will have line number 28 on the inside of the top connector
link and line number 15 on the inside of the bottom connector link. Ensure the control lines are routed
to the inside of the risers and are not routed around any of the suspension lines.
