Plexiglas canopy:
Small scratches on the exterior surfaces of the canopies can be removed by the
"Schwabbel" procedure (see above). Lock the canopies to the fuselage!
Metal parts:
The pins and bushes for rigging the aircraft are not surface protected and must
be covered with grease all the time (see section 3.3). The other metal parts,
especially the control stick and all handles, should be preserved with metal
polishes occasionally.

3.2 Maintenance of the airframe

The sailplane is service free except for the care of the surfaces (see above) and
greasing and oiling of the control system and all pins (see section 3.3).
After a landing in a soft field, the undercarriage box and tow hook should be
thoroughly cleaned.
