To remove the rear leading edges for shipping follow these steps
This process will basically be the reverse of installing the rear leading edges after shipping. Before
beginning, read through the section above on how to reinstall the rear leading edges. While following
the instructions below, refer to the photos in the section above for reference, if necessary.
1. Lay the glider on the ground or floor, unzip the bag and remove the velcro ties. Remove the tip
bags and lay the tips out flat. The sprog access zippers should be fully unzipped.
2. Working through the opening at the tip of the sail, slide the sail forward exposing the end of the
leading edge tube and locate the clevis pin which secures the sail mount strap to the leading edge.
Remove the safety ring from the sail mount clevis pin and remove the pin from the leading edge
and from the tang on the sail mount strap. Reinstall the clevis pin in the leading edge tube and
reinstall the safety ring.
3. Check to see that the rear leading edges are labeled “Left” and “Right.” If they are not, mark
them with an indelible marker. Remember that left and right are reversed if the glider is lying “on
its back”, upside down.
4. Fold the sprog towards the nose, and make sure that it is positioned so that it will slide into the sail
through the sprog zipper opening when you remove the rear leading edges. Working through the
opening of the sail at the tip, pull the rear leading edge straight aft to disengage it from the front,
and then continue to slide it carefully out of the sail through the sail opening at the tip. Tape or pad
the edges of the front end of the rear leading edge tubes, and the rear of the front leading edge
tubes to prevent sail damage during transit.
5. Roll up the sail, and the tips of the sail and reinstall the tip cover bags. Carefully fold the rear of
the sail over against the front, and replace the bag on the glider.
