grip the air drive in one hand, holding a blade with the other to prevent
rotation offer the air tenon up to the yaw arm socket
align the holes in the yaw arm and the air tenon, and insert the mortice
pin and lock with the beta pin.
once the tenon is located in the socket, tie a short piece of line around
the blades and the yaw arm to prevent blade rotation
extend the telescopic drive shaft until the conical connector boss mates
with the air drive
rotate the drive shaft until the holes align and insert the drop nose pin
Note that the 5 mm bolt which holds the conical connector to the drive shaft can
be used as an alignment aid. Simply align the head of the bolt with the hole in
the air or water drive, and the drop nose pin should pass through easily.
Ensure that you rotate the drop nose tab through 90° and push backwards so that it forms a ‘T’ -
this is the lock position for the pin as the tab is retained by a ball spring.
