Connecting folded wings to the fuselage
1. Unlock the fairings between the strut and the wing/fuselage and
slide them along the strut.
2. Withdraw the main wing securing bolt from the wing and place it
nearby. Ensure that the bolt stays clean until remounted.
3. Remove the wing support aid bracket while a second person
supports the wing at the wing tip.
4. Now the second person at the wing tip moves the wing slowly
forward while ensuring that the wing does not spin around its
axis. The weight of the wing is supported by its strut, therefore,
the wing must never be lifted or pushed down from the top.
5. When the wing has reached its maximum forward position, the
person at the fuselage position must rotate the wing to align both
connection latches. Care must be taken that the surface of the
wing is not damaged by the fuselage connecting latches.
6. When the connecting latches between the fuselage and wing are
aligned, the wing must be lifted by the person at the wing tip.
The person at the fuselage must ensure that the flap drive
connection fits correctly into the bushing on the fuselage.
7. If all latches have engaged and the wing fits properly to the
fuselage, the main bolt can be pushed into its support tube. To
install the main bolt correctly, please use the special installation
tool which comes with the aircraft. Now secure the bolt with the
securing pin.
The person at the wing tip can now release the
pressure supporting the wing tip.
8. Inside the cabin, the pushrod quick fasteners MUST properly be
connected and secured.
Insecure connection, improper operation of control surfaces
or insecurely locked fasteners will lead to loss of control of
the aircraft!! When in doubt contact your local REMOS
dealer or service center.
9. Proceed in the same order with the second wing.
