Release the trike brake and roll the trike forward with the front wheel rolling through the A
frame and over the control bar. Make sure that the trike is aligned with the centre line of
the wing and the pylon top is directly under the hang bracket.
4.
Take the hang bolt and remove the nut, then centre the hang bracket.
Note: You may find it convenient to fashion two wooden wedges and jam them one each
side of the hang bracket between the hang bracket and the uprights; these will hold the
hang bracket firmly in a central position. Ensure they are removed immediately after the
hang bolt has been fitted.
Keeping hands and fingers clear gently lift the pylon top to engage into the hang bracket.
When the holes are aligned push the hang bolt through the hang bracket and pylon top
assembly from the port (left) side. Engage and fully tighten the nut onto the hang bolt and
clip the safety pin onto the hole in the toggle bar attached to the nut.
4.1 Connect the electric trim cord shackle to the keel at this stage.
5.
Go to the front of the wing and lift it to a horizontal position. Remove the nose extension,
inspect the nose plate and cross boom hinge areas, attach the nose cone.
Lift the nose further while rolling the trike rearwards until the wing keel engages with its
stop. The nose wheel of the trike will now be behind the control bar. Engage the trike
parking brake. Check that the over centre catch on the wing top rear wire is fully home in
the closed position and take a look inside the rear keel pocket to inspect the tensioning
cables securing pin, correct tensioning cable run, rear keel, king post and fin tube
attachment.
The nose cone must be attached to the wing
and fully in place on its Velcro fixing. The wing
stability and flying characteristics are adversely
affected by flight without the nose cone fitted
and could cause injury or death through loss of
control.
Do not lean over the pylon or place any part of your body between the
pylon and the wing. The gas strut (if fitted) is powerful and if the pylon
inadvertently starts to raise it could cause injury.
Keep hands and fingers out from between the
hang bracket and the A frame uprights as injury
could result the hang bracket swinging to either
side.
Keep fingers and hands clear of the sides of the
hang bracket at all times. The hang bracket
operates on an overcentre system. If
inadvertently let go, particularly in windy
conditions, it could trap your fingers and cause
injury.
