10-20-00 TIEDOWN
If you must put the aircraft into storage outdoors for a long time, do the tiedown procedure.
Strong winds or gusts can cause damage to the aircraft when it is not tied down.
Only use the tie-down points that are shown in this chapter.
The tie-down points of the aircraft are at the outer aileron hinge on each side of the wing.
You can also use the tailwheel axle to tie down the tail. Tie down the aircraft as follows:
1
Park the aircraft, refer to chapter 10-10-02.
Make sure that the ropes do not have too much tension to prevent damage.
2
Attach a rope to each mooring point and to the ground anchor point. We
recommend that you push the aileron control to one side to get easy access to the
aileron hinges.
3 Make sure that the canopy is closed and that the canopy cover is installed .
