2. Adjust the rear hinges between each enclosure for the desired rear splay angle by sliding the each of
the four hinges into the Hinge Tubes of the upper enclosure. Use the short connecting pin to engage the
hinge using the appropriate one of the three holes provided in the each upper enclosure Hinge Tube.
Top hole = tight packed
Center Hole = 1-1/2¡ splay
Bottom hole = 3¡ splay
Ensure that pins extend fully through the hinges and Hinge Tubes and are fully locked.
3. If Using the Pull-Back Bar (not shown):
If the Pull-Back Bar is to be used, the rear hinges on any splayed enclosures must be locked in position to
prevent the hinges from moving down into their own Hinge Tubes when the pull-back force is applied.
To lock the hinges, insert a connecting pin into the top hole of the each rear Hinge Tube and through the
bottom of the hinge. This prevents the hinge from moving back down into its own Hinge Tube when an
upward force is applied to the rear of the enclosure. When enclosures are tight-packed, the hinge locking
pin is not needed.
4. Ensure that all hinges on the front of the enclosures are positioned and locked so that enclosure fronts
will be tight-packed when flown.
