Assembly: ABM Harness (Harness Parts)

The ABM Harness is a unique paramotor harness allowing the use of weight-shift (seat steering) during flight. Free flight pilots will appreciate not only this feature, but also the lower hangpoint of the carabiners, giving their head much more space away from the risers during kiting and launch.

Assembly:

Position the harness near the frame. Look at the top of the harness for the attachment straps and hardware. Use the locknut and washer to attach the Harness straps to the frame as shown:

Position the ABM Arms (there should be no straps over the arm), then remove the locknut, washer and spring from the bolt on the ABM Arm. Make sure that the beveled spacer is on the ABM arm and insert it in the ABM Arm Receptacle on the Miniplane Frame.

Fasten the ABM Arm using the washer, spring and locknut in that order. Tighten about half of the spring's space between coils to ensure that the spring will hold tension against the arm.  Do not tighten all the way down on the spring! If you over tighten this - even once, you will need new springs!

Attach the side straps to the Frame, then attach the lower buckles to the frame under the lower Fuel Tank support with a Lark's Head loop. Clip the buckle from the shoulder strap into this. This strap should hold the weight of the paramotor when standing, but will be without tension during flight. 

(NOTE: Above photo is the APCO SuperLight Paramotor Harness, an optional harness available for the Miniplane Paramotors that offers an optional Reserve Container Pocket that can be put on either side of the harness)

Work with your trusted Miniplane Dealer and do a good Hang Check before considering flight.

Harness Adjustments

To properly adjust the ABM Harness, have a look at Hadley Robinson's page at Southwest Airsports describing the adjustments and settings that work well for this style of harness.

The next step in the assembly is the Propeller.
