2. Install the threaded jury strut fitting in the wing
so the threads are flush with the wing surface.
Important
: When threading the jury strut
fittings in the wing, make sure not to thread
them in too far as they can protrude through
the top of the wing.
Important
: The jury strut fittings are threaded
so they can be adjusted once the jury struts
and wing struts are installed. The correct height
of the fittings will allow the wing struts to be
straight between the wing and fuselage. This
alignment is described in step 7.
3. Slide the aluminum wing tube into the fuselage.
Guide the flap and aileron extensions into the
fuselage. The wing panel will fit tight against the
fuselage as shown.
4. Secure the wing to the fuselage using a nylon
wing bolt.
5. Temporarily attach the front and rear wing struts
to the wing and wing strut tab. The airfoil of the
struts will match the airfoil of the wing and the
fitting on the wing strut will face toward the wing
as shown in step 7. The longer strut is placed closer
to the trailing edge and the shorter strut toward the
leading edge. Use 4-40 x 3/8-inch socket head cap
screws and #4 washers to attach the strut. Two 4-40
lock nuts will need to be used at the strut fitting. Use
a 3/32-inch hex wrench and 1/4-inch nut driver to
tighten the hardware. Leave the hardware slightly
loose so the strut position can be adjusted when
installing the jury struts.
