Towing and tie-down instructions
Towing
It is easy to tow the airplane a short distance by holding the blade
root because the empty weight of this aeroplane is relatively low.
Suitable surfaces to hold the airplane airframe are the rear part of
the fuselage before the fin and wing roots..
Parking
It is advisable to park the airplane inside a hangar or eventually in-
side other weather proof space (such as a garage) with a stable tempera-
ture, good ventilation, low humidity and dust-free environment.
It is necessary to tie-down the airplane when parking outside.
When the plane must be tied-down outdoors for extended periods,
it is advisable to cover the cockpit canopy, and if possible, the entire air-
plane using a suitable cover.
Caution
Avoid excessive pressure at the airplane airframe - especially
at the wing tips, elevator, rudder, trim etc.
Caution
Handle the propeller by holding the blade root - never the
blade tip! If starting the engine manually - always handle the
propeller on a blade surface i.e. do not hold only an edge
