4.3 ATTACHING YOUR SONAR FOIL SYSTEM TO THE SENSE AND CHASE USING
THE 4 POINT MOUNTING SYSTEM
1.
Ensure all surfaces are free from dirt or sand prior to assembly. Pay close attention to the
Board Adapter on the foil system.
2.
Use Chase/Sense Screw Pack A.
3.
Position the Board Adapter of the assembled foil system parallel to the base of the board,
above the tracks. The Front Wing of the foil system should be orientated towards the nose
of the board and the Stabilizer should be orientated towards the tail of the board.
4.
Align all four Board Adapter holes with the four inserts on the board and tighten all the
screws firmly using just your hand initially.
5.
Finally, tighten the screws using the Torx 40 tool individually in a diagonal sequence until
the foil system is fully secured and the screws are firmly tight.
4.4 ATTACHING YOUR SONAR FOIL SYSTEM TO A NON-NORTH BOARD
Please refer to the other manufacturer’s user manual for installation.
WARNING:
Use of a non-North board with a North Foil System is at the user’s own risk. North Kiteboarding
does not accept any responsibility.
WARNING:
Ensure you’re using the right length screws on the Scoop, the screws have to be fully engaged to
the bottom of the insert before they can be fully tightened.
WARNING:
Ensure that screws are not too long and will not hit the bottom of the track which could potentially
cause damage. This also applies to the Sense and Chase. The screw length is critical to ensure a
minimum of 8mm engagement but does not exceed the inserts depth.
WARNING:
Do not use power tools for disassembly as it may cause damage as control of torque and power is
limited. Doing so will render your warranty void.
WARNING:
If required, a soft rubber mallet should be used with great care and attention. No sharp or hard
objects should ever be used for disassembly.
5.1 DETACHING YOUR SONAR FOIL SYSTEM FROM THE NORTH SCOOP

completely loose, remove them and separate the foil system from the board.
2.
Once the foil system has been carefully and securely set aside, remove the four T-Nuts
using both sets of track entry openings on the tracks and store in a safe place or leave
them properly fastened to the screws on the foil.

4.2 RIDER WEIGHT POSITIONING GUIDE
When the rider’s body weight is between 75kg
and 85kg, align the Board Adaptor 0 mark up
with the 0 mark on board scale. For rider’s under
75kg slide the foils system further towards the
board tail and for rider’s over 85kg slide the foil
system forward of the 0 mark towards the nose
of the board.
