1.Locate your center strut on the trailing 

edge of your kite. Sewn on the strut end is 

a pigtail attachment where you will first at-

tach the leach line. Form a larks head in the 

end of the leach line that is sleeved like you 

kite flying line and secure over knot. 

2.Now attach the other end of the leach 

line to the end of the tool by tying a basic 

overhand knot or half hitch. 

3.Insert the tool into the leach line 

pocket through the hole as pictured.  

If your kite doesn’t have a hole, you will 

have to make a small incision into the 

scuff guard.  

5.Push the tool through the pocket to-

ward the wing tip. 

6.Once you reach the strut you will have to guide 

the tool so that it follows the stitching line under 

the scuff guard. You will feed the tool through a 

hole, over the strut, and through another hole 

leading back into the trailing edge leach pocket. 

The leach line is never exposed and is covered by 

the scuff guard if installed properly.

7.Work the leach line and tool through 

the pocket toward the wing tip. You will 

have to repeat step 5 each time you 

encounter a strut. 

8.Once you reach the end of the leach 

pocket at the wing tip, you will have to 

make a small cut in the patch that covers 

the grommet. 

9.Feed the tool out of the leach pocket, 

through the freshly cut whole in the 

grommet. While holding the tool/leach 

line in your hand, pull the kite’s trailing 

edge tight to fit the line properly.
