1.)
The ATOS-VRS LIGHT should not be laid directly on rocky surfaces, as this can lead to
pressure points and damage the carbon fiber structure. If setting up on rocky terrain, try to
place the ATOS-VRS LIGHT so that it does not rest in one spot in the middle, but rather rests
on supports at each end. The load is then distributed over 2 points. In very rough terrain, the
nose end
should be placed on top of your harness.
4.)
Put the ATOS-VRS LIGHT on the basetube by reaching into the hole at the nose of the spar
with one hand and guiding the control frame with the other. Make sure that the control frame
does not tilt to the side. This can damage the first rib on the spar. Be sure the wing is stable
resting on the control frame. If the glider falls over, the upper control frame bracket
connection or the basetube can be damaged.
In principle, the same principles of transport by car apply to transport by railway. Point loads on
the spar must be avoided. Strips of foam mat can be placed inside the bag to cushion the spar
from hard metal beams. The transport shells designed for car racks can also be used as cushions
for railwaytransport. Before flying, these shells can be hooked together and placed as far back as
possible on the keel inside the sail and secured there.
5.)
If using two transport bags:
attach the right spar, insert and secure the main bolt.
Attention
: Close the linch pins and place the safety bungees under the lynch pins.
Take care not to drop the control frame as it could damage the sail, spar or rib 1. Stand behind
the control frame and first thread the flap cord into the guide on the basetube. Connect the
downtubes to the basetube using quick pins.
6.)
If using two transport bags:
connect the safety string from the right spar to the keel.
7.)
If using two transport bags:
connect
the control cables, close the snap shackle and
secure the threaded quick link
.
8.)
Take the outer aluminum wing tubes out of the D-spar.
9.)
From a wing tip, spread the wings until the keel touches the ground
.
10.)
Insert the GRP rod on the nose fitting into the guide on the right D-spar.
11.)
Insert the connector into the metal stud, then the stud into the plastic guide
