5.21. Install the tip lever battens (fig.38). 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;
- pressing on the joint, push the partly folded batten towards the keel section, straightening the
batten completely (fig. 39).
When de-rigging the wing 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.
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.
5.22. Install the inner and outer washout struts, just swing them to the right place underneath
the corresponding top surface battens through the access zipper in the bottom surface (fig. 40
and fig. 41).
