12. Carefully slide the lower sail battens in their pockets and secure them within the triangular
openings.
13. Place the two straight carbon battens of the wing tips on the plastic lug attached to the tube of the
leading edge, and tighten the upper surface with the clasps.
14. Mount the wing tip fins by introducing them between the upper surface and the lower surface, as
well as between the straight carbon batten and the upper surface fabric. Push upwards the 3 Dart
locking pins to ease the positioning of the tip fins, then return them to their slots and secure them
by turning clockwise. (Figure 5-3). Tighten the under surface of the wing tip by means of its
bungee that should encircle the clasp of the upper surface (Figure 5-3).

15. Close the two zippers of the neoprene central link. Insert the trailing edge tensioning batten in the
nylon slots at the ends of the two central battens by pulling back (Figure 5-4).
16. When connecting the trike, slip the security fastening cable behind the kingpost, then through the
loop in the security strap aligned with the front of the kingpost, behind the kingpost again, and then
fix it to the beam of the trike. The security cable should pass under the tensioning cables and
between the fine cord of the CORSET and the keel. This operation secures the trike as well as
fastening the crossbar tensioning system.
17. Attach the fairings to the kingpost and the struts of the A-frame. Firmly press the trailing edge of
the fairings all along with the palm of two hands during assembly. Repeat the operation while
pinching the trailing edge with the fingers. Figure 5-5 & Figure 5-6.
