Rigging/De-rigging Guide

This Guide should be treated only as an aide-memoire—it is no substitute for a
briefing and demonstration. Rigging the Sport Vega from its trailer is very easy
and needs only two people.
This Guide covers the details special to the CSGC trailer.

Rigging

Preparation

To open the trailer the rear needs to be raised (ie. the front lowered). Lower the
tailgate and re-jack the front of the trailer so that it doesn’t rock fore-and-aft.

Having opened the trailer place the wooden wedge in position to ensure the
main wheel has a smooth transit:

Remove the cushions out in place for the tailplane.
