Open And Inspect - Pro Built GILES 202 Assembly Instructions Manual

1. Open and Inspect contents
This section should be fairly self explanatory.
In the large box you should have a fuselage with hatch., wing tube and dual stab tubes, the
elevator/stab assemblies, the rudder, cowl, wheel pants, canopy, and a package with the land-
ing gear, tail wheel bracket and miscellaneous nuts and bolts. Use some acetone on a rag to
clean the glue off the tubes. Under all of this is a false floor, and under that you will find the
wings with ailerons attached. The hinges are installed in the elevators and ailerons, but they
are not glued, you have to do that. The hinges for the rudder are in the hardware pack. We
have had good luck with two part Epoxy glues, as they fill any voids hinges and their sockets
.Wipe off any excess with Methalyted spirits before epoxy sets. The wings and ailerons are
made of sheeted foam, so be sure not to use any type of glue which might dissolve the foam.
Check everything for shipping damage and/or manufacturing defects. If there is a problem,
report it to us NOW, not after you start building the plane.
Read the quick start guide at the end of this manual first. It has
helpful hints and any errata corrections that may be available.
Before proceeding to any assembly, now is a good time to go over the whole plane and fix
any cosmetic flaws. Some cosmetic flaws are to be expected, this fact is reflected in the price.
