ASSEMBLY MANUAL

Steps

Description

Mast floating device (option)
This device prevents the mast from sinking in case of capsize thus allows easy righting.

As serial or optional equipment, the mast float devise is already mounted. You just need to fit it on your mast head (see

step 3). If it is not mounted, follow steps 1 to 3 below.

Unscrew the four screws that are on the device.

Adjust the alu plate so that the

holes fit the four holes on the

device and fix it with the screws.

Fix the device on the mast head using the bolt and

the two washers as shown on the photo.

Safety line
While sailing, the safety cord on the trampoline

(blue line on the photo, that may be of a different

colour) prevents the crew from falling off of the cat,

and allows easy righting in case of capsizing.
