Congratulations on your purchase of the Miniplane Minari Paramotor - The powerful paramotor for heavier pilots and tandem operations!

Minari ParamotorIMPORTANT!!! Please Read This:

This is a 2-stroke engine and it MUST have oil mixed with the fuel!

As for fuel, we recommend the use of Avgas 100LL aviation fuel or premium ethanol free gasoline (see Fuel Tips), mixed with a good fully synthetic 40:1 2-stroke oil. Minari has stated that Avgas is OK to use with their engine, and this is our recommendation of fuel for so many reasons.

Failure to mix the proper Synthetic Oil with your fuel even once at the proper ratio will cause your engine to seize and void the warranty of your machine!

 

Breaking in your new Minari engine

New engines generate a lot more heat and this is what can cause them to seize unless they are carefully broken in. When you start the engine for the first time, run it at a fast idle until it reaches normal operating temperature (when the cooling fins of the engine are too hot to touch) and then for at least an additional 10 minutes. Readjust the carburetor at this time (see the “Basic Carburetion” instructions on page EN 15 and page IT 8). Readjustment is required whenever there is any change in the engine operating conditions such as ambient operating temperature and/or changes in altitude.

During the first 20 liters of fuel use, do NOT run the engine at full throttle/maximum RPM for more than a few minutes. If you have a CHT, keep the operating temperature below 390-420 degrees Fahrenheit until the engine is fully broken in.

 

Maintenance Schedule

Your new Miniplane Minari Paramotor has a schedule of regular maintenance that needs to be done as early as 10 hours of run time. Most things are easy and quick, such as to re-torque the head and check belt tension. Please refer to the Minari Manual for these important service recommendations for your machine.

DISCLAIMER: Please read and be sure you thoroughly understand this disclaimer before flying an ultralight aircraft. Paramotors, Powered Paragliders, PPG, PPG Trikes, Hang Glider Trikes, Weight shift Control Trikes - any of these small aircraft that weight less than 254 pounds and have a tank less than 5 gallons are considered Ultralights. These are single-place (solo) flying machines for sport aviation only during daylight hours. Ultralight flying is an extremely demanding sport requiring exceptional levels of attention, judgment, maturity and self discipline. It is unlikely that you will be able to participate in it safely unless you make a conscious and continual commitment to your own safety. Ultralight aircraft flying is an inherently dangerous sport and may result in injury and death even when practiced by a competent pilot using proper equipment. Ultralights are not covered by product liability insurance, nor have they been designed manufactured or tested to any federal or state government airworthiness standards or regulations. Do not fly them unless you are willing to assume personally all risks in the sport of ultralight flying, and all responsibility for any property damage, injury, or death which may result from your use of this activity. Safe operation of any ultralight aircraft requires a pilot proficiency equivalent to that of a Novice Solo Pilot or in some cases a BFI (Basic Flight Instructor), as well as an equivalent level of knowledge and understanding of those wind and weather conditions which may compromise the pilot's safe control of the ultralight. In particular, be advised that gusty winds or turbulent conditions may interfere with even an expert pilot's ability to safely control an ultralight aircraft, and may cause it to crash. Never take anything for granted in aviation. If you are in doubt about anything, stop and figure it out immediately. By purchasing this item, you assume sole responsibility for your safety and hold harmless the retailer and manufacturer for injury or death resulting from your use of this item.
