Hook the swan catch onto the nose plate and place the securing pip pin into position with
its securing washer on the ball end. Give the washer a tug to ensure that the ball is
locking the washer in place.
Fit the rigging tool into the nose of the wing to provide a support foot to rest the wing on.
In light winds, the helper can now release the keel and you can lower the wing nose with
it’s support foot to the ground.
Note: The following paragraphs 16 and 17 will normally be carried out after the trike has
been attached to the wing, but is detailed here for continuity.
17.
After inspecting all parts visible through the nose aperture, securely fit the nose cone
upper Velcro to the wing top side Velcro and, ensuring symmetry, pull the lower part of the
nose cone around the lower front rigging cables. Join the nose cone rigging cable slot
edges with the Velcro’s provided and attach the nose cone underside to the wing
undersurface Velcro.
18. Adjust either the upper or lower wing attachment Velcro patches to give the smoothest
and most symmetrical fit.
19.
In light winds the nose can again be lowered and the wing allowed to rest on the nose
extension.
20.
Push fully home the undersurface ribs so that the curved aluminium section is facing
rearwards and downwards. Fit the single elastic to each undersurface rib rear.
From now on the wing will be at the mercy of
any wind gusts. Do not leave it unattended or
damage, personal injury or death could result.
Nose cone must be fitted before flying. Failure
to do so may adversely affect stability and
control.
The helper must keep the rear wires tight and
the wing horizontal until the swan catch is
latched in place at the nose of the wing or
injury may occur.
CAUTION
In turbulence or strong winds it is best to have an
assistant hold the wings level at the nose whilst the
under surface ribs are located.
