4 . Slide the tiller with extension under
the traveler line. Align the pintles over
the gudgeons and press down to secure
(Figure 78). Adjust the spring clip once
the rudder is on to secure in place with
the safety clip and ring. To release press
on the rudder lift stop and lift the rudder
head straight up.
5
. Th e rudder downhaul line locks the
rudder in the down position. Before
launching be sure that the line is loose so
that the rudder can remain in the upright
position. When you are ready to sail, pull
on the rudder downhaul and the rudder
blade will lower into the water. Tie off the
line to the cleat on the tiller while sailing
(fi gure 79).
15. Mainsheet
Standard and Race Models
1 . Locate the mainsheet and large traveler
block from the delivery kit. At the stern
of the boat attach the large traveler block
to the small traveler block by joining the
hooks (fi gure 80).
2
. Take the mainsheet through the becket
of the boom end block and tie a stop-
per knot (fi gure 81). Lead the line down
through the large traveler block and back
through the boom end block (fi gure 82).
Note : Th e use of a stopper knot here is so that maxi-
mum mainsheet tension may be achieved.
3
. Continue the line forward through
the boom bail (Figure 83), through the
forward boom block (Figure 84) and down
to the ratchet block. Lead the line through
the ratchet block making sure you hear a
ratcheting noise when trimming in the
sail. Tie a stopper knot in the tail end of
the line.
Note : Mainsheet block will diff er in appearance
depending on whether you have a Laser Standard
Model or Laser Race Model.

Attaching the
Rudder
When rigging the rudder
it is important to place the
tiller and extension under-
neath the traveler line.
Allow plenty of slack in the
traveler line before sliding
the entire tiller and extension
under only the traveler line
that is connected between
the two fairleads. Slide the
rudder head back and insert
the pintles of the rudderhead
into place. Insert the safety
ring into the bottom of the
pintle. Tighten the traveler
line so that it is taught but
still allows the traveler block
to move freely across the
traveler, clearing the tiller.
Taping the Traveler
Blocks
It is recommended that
you tape the traveler block
brummels so that they
do not become twisted
or disconnected.

16. Sail Number Application
Provided in the delivery kit are 4 red and 8 blue or black sail numbers. In order to participate in Laser
regattas you will need to apply the numbers to your sail for easy identifi cation. Th e sail plaque affi xed
to the cockpit of yout boat indicates your sail number.
Sail Care
Flaking or rolling your sail is highly recommended. Crumpling a sail will crack the fi nish of the
material which quickly reduces the life of the sail (Figure 85).
Figure 83 | Tip : Remove the battens before fl aking the sail.
