Java Comp 150
Owner’s Manual
You can sometimes do this accidentally if rigging quickly. If you have pushed the batten in a long way,
you may have to totally de-rig to remove it.
In future always work in from the tip with the under surface battens i.e. put the shorter battens in first. In
this way if you get the wrong batten it will be too long and easy to remove from the pocket.
The nose cone is lost
YOU SHOULD NEVER FLY WITHOUT A NOSE CONE. Check that the nose cone is not down the
leading edge pocket of the glider. Hold the leading edge up to the light and look for the silhouette of the
nose cone.
The leading edge pocket appears to have black marks or other dirt on the inside
This is usually grass or other debris which has got down the leading edge pocket. Try and get is out as best
you can. The problem is usually caused by the storage of the battens in the leading edge pocket which
tends to fill the pockets with debris and encourages mildew. DO NOT STORE YOUR BATTENS IN THE
LEADING EDGE POCKET.
The under surface appears to have black marks around the keel and centre junction
This could be caused by some leakage of lubricant from the cross tube centre junction. Clean around the
area with a dry rag. Wipe marks off the inside of the sail.
