4.9. Spread the wings all the way and check all cables
for any twisted thimbles or tangled cables. At the rear of
the keel find the shackle of the sweep wire. Pull the
shackle out the rear end of the keel pocket, and check
that the sweep wire is not wrapped around the keel.
Attach the shackle of the sweep wire to the hook on the
keel tube (
Fig. 10). Close the zipper of the keel tube
cover.
WARNING
An in-flight disengagement of this attachment will cause a complete loss of structural support of
the glider and a total loss of control. Never attach the pull handle of the shackle to the hook, even
temporarily.
4.10. Remove the protection bags from the wing tips and install the last four outboard top surface battens.
4.11. Install the tip battens (Fig. 11):
The adjustable tip lever batten is fixed to the LE # 3 with one end and to the sail with another end.
To install the adjustable tip lever batten proceed as follow:
- bend one part of the batten (fixed to the LE tube) in its joint for necessary angle and slide another part of the batten
in it (the one that fixed to the sail);
- pressing on the joint, push the partly folded batten towards the keel section, straightening the batten completely.
When de-rigging the glider simply reverse the procedure written above.
The adjustable tip lever batten is fixed to the LE # 3 tube with the threaded adjuster, giving a possibility to adjust the
sail tension and to correct a light asymmetry in the glider with VG off, if necessary. For example, correcting the light
left turn can be done by increasing the tip lever batten tension on the left wing and (or) decreasing the tip lever batten
tension on the right wing.
To increase the tip lever batten tension rotate the batten with the threaded adjuster counter clockwise.
To decrease the tip lever batten tension rotate the batten clockwise.
NOTE
The excess tensioned tip lever battens will worsen the handling.
