UNCOILING INSTRUCTIONS 

CAUTION: READ BEFORE OPENING 

Coiled luffs have a lot of stored energy and can spring open 
with force when restraining tape is cut. It is recommended to 
wear face and eye protection. Please refer to instructions 
below. 

The sooner you begin the uncoiling and straightening process, 
the faster and easier it will be to straighten the luff.  

*

The luff should remain coiled for no longer than 2 weeks 

 

Instructions for uncoiling the luff:  

Note

: it’s best to have one person cutting the bands with at 

least one other person holding onto the luff firmly, ensuring it 

doesn’t spring out

 

1) Stand the luff on its side with the tail at the top 

2) Have one person stand with one foot on the inside of the 
luff while holding onto the tail firmly 

3) The second person should then cut the band of tape near 
the tail, while the first person is firmly holding onto the tail 
and gently letting out the luff 

4) Proceed to cut the next bands one at a time using the same 
process
