We had studied the market and seen what was already available. We improved the jib furling concept in a number of ways. Furlex quickly became the market leader, a position it still occupies today. The first systems sold are still functioning well.

3.5 Calculating the length of the rod forestay 1. Determine the rake of the mast with the fore-/backstay tensioned. 2. Slacken backstay as much as possible. But make sure that any rigging screw is not unscrewed so far that the threads are no longer visible "on the inside". The forestay setting should not be adjus- ted. -

4 Assembly of the Furlex system 4.1 Assembly of the rod forestay Assembly is carried out by the rod supplier. Apart from the actual rod forestay, only the joining sleeve pack is required. 1. Measure the length of the rod forestay. (The WL measurement and corrections for the length of the top terminal and the cold-headed head at the lower end have been calculated in "Calculation Table 1".) 2. -

4.2 Assembly of the luff extrusion Assembly should be carried out on a horizontal surface. Connect the extrusions after each other as follows: 1. Unscrew the eye part of the upper terminal. Wind tape around the exposed thread of the male part to protect it. - Page 17 Fig. 4.2.d Insert the locking pin together with the locking fluid. Secure the pin with a piece of adhesive tape. (The tape is removed when the lower bearing assembly is slid on.) NOTE: Do not allow locking adhesive to come into contact with the skin! Fit a slotted distance tube on the rod forestay and push it into the 2400 mm (94 1/2") luff extrusion.

Feed the furling line through the hole in the line guide fitting and then through the hole in Fig. - Page 21 Push the locking block in until it rests against the lower bearing assembly. Fasten the line guide fitting in the line guard and bring this up into the assembly position. Tighten the screws in the stainless steel housing. Tighten the screw lightly. Adjust the line guide vertically so that it is mid- way between the line drum flanges.
