6.2.e Linking the wind turbine to the safety line
•
Attach the omega (130) located at the top of the vane to the safety line (96). The distance between the
kite and the wind turbine is thus to be defined by you according to the wind conditions. We recommend 10
to 30m in small wind, and 2 to 10m in strong wind.

Pass the safety line through the distance screw (45) located at the end of the fin (32) in order to guide
its trajectory and prevent it from being entangled with the blades.

6.3 Wind turbine manual launch
The KiweeOne can be deployed semi-automatically or manually. The semi-auto mode is preferred
when internal battery level is sufficient. Manual mode requires unwinding the entire rope belt using
the manual crank.
The semi-automatic mode is described in the section “How to use the electrical box” p19.
The following section describes the unwinding process of the rope belt in manual mode.
