swing properly, making sure that the suspension string is unwound
smoothly.

1.

Tie the radar reflector to the balloon with a string of approximately
50 cm in length.

2.

Attach the rubber plate (RS46158) to the radar reflector.

Non-Totex Parachute

If you are using a parachute that has no firm objects to prevent the
unwinder from twisting, you have to use a hanger board (Vaisala code
RS46157).

1.

Tie the parachute to the balloon with a string.

2.

Tie the hanger board to the parachute with a string of
approximately 20 cm in length.
