at this stage; it must be possible to adjust the position of the annular clamp on the boom.
•
Screw the main boom to the main boom swivel
bracket using two screws (part 68) and two retaining
nuts (part 69).
•
Fit the jib hanger (part 70) on the mast and glue it in
place at a point about 95 mm from the top of the
mast. The masthead fitting (part 71) can now be
glued to the top of the mast.
IMPORTANT:
check
that the masthead fitting is exactly in line with the jib
hanger.
•
Cut the backstay (part 72) from the white polyester
cord supplied. Cut a piece from the large loop of one
wire hook (part 73), as shown in the drawing, and
apply a drop of cyano to the point where the two
loops meet.
NOTE:
this ensures that the cord will not
slip out of the loop. Tie the cord to the masthead, and
run it through the small loop of the wire hook.
Connect this to the ring-screw (part 34), thread the
cord through a tensioner (part 46) and tie the end as
shown. Adjust the tensioner to place the backstay
under light tension.
•
Tie the shrouds (part 74) to the inner hole of the jib
hanger, leaving both ends of the cord approximately
the same length. Make up two wire hooks as
described earlier. Thread one of the cord ends
through the small loop of the hook, and connect the
large loop of the hook to the ring-screw. Slip the cord
through a tensioner, then loop it around the fillister-
head screw (part 33) in the deck and tie it to the
tensioner again. Repeat the procedure with the
shroud on the other side of the boat. Place the
shrouds until light tension, so that the mast stands up
straight.
•
Rub the black stickers firmly onto the sails using a
scrap piece of wood. Heat a needle or pin (caution:
burn hazard!) and use it to pierce 1 mm Ø holes in
the sail at the positions shown. The hole in the clew
must be opened up to 2 mm Ø. The position of the
holes is shown on the plan.
NOTE:
the hot needle
melts the sail material cleanly, and prevents it
fraying.
•
Glue the carbon fibre sail battens (part 76) to the sail
following the dimensions stated on the plan. The
ends of the battens must be secured using the
circular stickers (part 77) to prevent them coming
loose. Apply the stickers centrally round the leech
(trailing edge) of the sail.
•
Tie the mainsail luff stretcher (part 78) securely to the
throat of the sail. Tie the mainsail halyard (part 79) to
the headboard (top corner) of the mainsail, and slip
the halyard through the hole in the masthead fitting.
Position the cord in such a way that the mainsail is
located about 4 mm above the main boom swivel
bracket, and tie it to the masthead fitting. Slip the
cord of the luff stretcher through the two holes in the
main boom bracket (part 59), run it through a
tensioner (part 46), wrap the cord round the ring-
screw, and tie the end to the tensioner again. Adjust
the tensioner to place the mainsail under light
tension.
•
Fit the mast rings (part 80) over the mast and
through the sail.
