a) Assembling - Dismantling
•
Open the wing bag, make sure that the control 'A' frame is on top, remove fastenings and packing.
•
Assemble the 'A' frame with a push-pin. Cables must not pass through the inside.
•
Turn the wing over and centralize the 'A' frame underneath. Carefully open the two halves to their maximum
extend. Take care not to snag cables.
•
Fit the king post into its locating lug, taking care that the tensioning cables do not entangle and pass naturally to
each side of the king post.
•
Carefully slide the top sail battens in their respective pockets, and secure them with the retaining rubber bands
or with strings for those situated at back-up ropes level. Do not use force during the initial assembly and start
from the keel outwards.
•
Ensure the end of the smallest batten is located on lug on leading edge.
•
Ensure side flying wire connections at leading edge are not twisted then pull the cross-bar swan catch tensioner
to the back of the keel. Restrain the wing moving back by kneeling behind the 'A' frame.
•
Fasten the swan catch on its locator situated on the end of the keel and secure with a push-pin. To simplify the
operation carefully position the keel in the middle of the 'A' frame and again ensure that the heat shrink
coverings of the lower lateral cables do not get stuck in the sail opening at the level of the cross-bar/leading
edges link.
•
Pull down the swan catch tension lever and fix it in position with a push-pin.
•
Raise the nose of the wing and lift it on the 'A' frame.
•
Fix the front lower longitudinal cables in the locating rail under the nose plate with the tension device lever and
a push-pin.
•
Lower the wing onto the nose. Place the tip struts in the locating sockets on the leading edges. Push them well
into their sockets and twist. Check that they are firmly locked in position by pulling them to the rear. Lift the
sail to make the operation easier. The wing is now ready for flight.
•
Fix the nose bonnet with the Velcro.
Attaching the wing to the trike
Ensure wing is resting on 'A' frame and nose. Line trike unit with wing keel on nose. Push front wheel over base
bar of 'A' frame. Ensure propeller is horizontal. Remove monopole securing bolt at engine mount. Move rear seat
back rest support forwards. Turn rear seat around. Remove bottom compression strut bolt, washers, keeping and
butterfly nut. Take out compression strut, lower to ground. End of compression strut should be about 300mm from
nose of wing on ground. Lift nose of wing and fix hang point to monopole. Fit hang bolt, washers, nut and split
pin. Fit back up cable through strap, in front of the king post, under tension wires, around the king post, again
through the strap, then fix to other side. Sit on the trike keel. Ensure control bar is about 100 mm from front tire.
Apply tire brake. Lift control bar upwards. Locate compression strut in pocket and fit bolt, wing nut. Ensure all
wing nuts are fitted to R.H.S. of aircraft when sitting in it.
Dismantling is carried out in reverse order of the assembling operations. Before folding up the two half-wings,
make sure that the tensioning device lever does not get stuck in the opening of the keel pocket, slip it as far as
possible to the front of the pocket, then pull out the king post.
Put wing in bag. Half zip up to keel. Fit keel protective bags. Undo 'A' frame and extend down wing bag. Put all
push pins in nose plate. Ensure flying wires are not snagged. Position swan catch lever by 'A' frame. Fit padding
under and around hang bracket. Put battens in wing back, tips to middle of bag. Zip up. Air Creation logo on
