WING STRUTS
Each wing strut is a single lift strut which transmits a part of the wing load to the lower portion of the
fuselage. The strut consists of a streamlined tube bolted to two end fittings which attach to the
fuselage and wing.
WARNING
Do Not Tighten Strut Attachment Bolts. Metal fatigue may result. Bolt must be free to rotate.
7.8.1 REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
See above for the wing removal section relevant to the particular aircraft.
7.8.2 REPAIR
Wing struts are structural components and therefore all repairs must be referred to Jabiru Aircraft Pty
Ltd or our approved local agent.
A dented, cracked or deformed wing strut should be replaced prior to next flight.
