into the clevis pin in the front leading edge. When the rear leading edge is fully engaged, you will not be
able to rotate it.
4. Tighten the sail along the leading edge by putting the sail mount webbing into the slot in the end cap of
the leading edge # 3.
NOTE
The sail mount screws on the front part of the leading edge tubes # 1 must be unscrewed, otherwise the
excess sail tension will not allow tightening the sail.
The sail mount screws have to be screwed back after you accomplish all steps in section “Fox set-up
procedure” from item 1 through item 9.
5. Secure the sail mount webbing to the leading edge # 3 with the sail mount webbing Velcro.
NOTE
When spreading the wings with the sail mount screws been unscrewed check that the sail mount webbing
is in proper position in the slot of the end cap of the leading edge # 3
.
6. Install the wing tip bags.
Put battens on top of the glider between Mylar pockets in the front part of the glider.
Place Velcro ties around the glider.
Put the speed bar between leading edges in the rear part of the glider.
Put the glider bag back on and zip it up.
3. FOX BREAKDOWN FOR SHIPPING PROCEDURE
This process will basically be the reverse of reassembling after breakdown for shipping. Before beginning,
read through the section above on how to re-install the rear leading edges.
1. Lay the glider on the ground or floor, unzip the bag and remove the Velcro ties. Remove the speed bar
and battens from the glider. Remove the protection wing tip bags.
2. Check to see that the leading edges are marked “Left” and “Right”. If they are not, mark them with an
indelible marker.
3. Unscrew the sail mount screws from the leading edges # 1.
4. Undo the sail mount webbing Velcro and remove the sail mount webbing from the leading edges end
caps. With the outboard sprog folded towards the nose pull the rear leading edge straight aft and slide it
backwards carefully out of the sail. Tape or pad the edges of the front end of the leading edge tubes # 3,
and the rear of the leading edge tubes # 2 to prevent sail damage during transportation.
5. Carefully fold the rear of the sail over against the front, place Velcro ties around the glider and put on
the glider bag, turning the bag 180 deg (i.e. matching the front part of the bag to the rear part of the
glider)
.
6. Zip up the glider bag zipper.
