4.2.4
Derigging
Derigging follows the reverse of rigging.
Waterballast must be dumped first.
Transfer the fuel from the wing tanks (Option) to the fuselage tank or empty the
wing tanks using the electric pump system in reverse. Disconnect the connectors
from the wing fuel tanks.
Lock the airbrakes.
4.2.5
Rigging and derigging the wing tip extensions (Option)
1. Insert the wing tip extensions into the wing.
Press in the locking pin with your finger.
Insert the wing tip until the flaperon connector starts to slide into the flaperon
slot.
Strike firmly with the palm of your hand on to the wing tip to lock in the wing
tip extension.
2. Disassembling of the wing tip
Use a 6 mm diameter pin (e.g. tool W36) for pressing in the locking pin on
the wing's upper surface.
3. The rigging of the 15 m wingtips with winglets (Option) has to be done in the
same manner as the wing tip extensions.
4.2.6
Rigging and derigging the 18 m winglets (Option)
To assemble the winglets pull off the wingtips and slot in the winglets. The
winglets are secured to the wings by means of a quarter turn fastener. With a
screw driver turn the fastener a 1/4 turn in clockwise direction until it engages.
Removal is the opposite of that described above.
To fly with wingtips instead of winglets, secure the wingtips to the wings by
taping the gap.
