8 Aircraft Ground Handling and Servicing<br />

8.6 Folding Wing System<br />

The REMOS GX is manufactured at highest quality standards, all<br />

components are highly accurate and provide a maximum<br />

aerodynamic quality. It is therefore strongly recommended to be<br />

most careful when assembling or disassembling components like the<br />

wings, stabilizer and other parts. To fold or atta<strong>ch</strong> the wings, two<br />

persons are required. The following instructions will provide you with<br />

all the necessary information.<br />

8.7 Preparation for Assembling and Disassembling<br />

For assembling and disassembling the wings a special tool for<br />

atta<strong>ch</strong>ing and removing the wing and stabilizer bolts is provided with<br />

the basic equipment for the aircraft. Furthermore a screwdriver is<br />

needed to lock/unlock the camlocks of the strut joint fairings.<br />

To prepare for assembling the stabilizer, place the stabilizer behind<br />

the aircraft on an appropriate foam support (take care to avoid<br />

scrat<strong>ch</strong>es and dents). Remove both stabilizer bolts from their bushes<br />

on the stabilizer and place them nearby (prepare with grease).<br />

If you intend to move the aircraft by trailer or to store it with wings<br />

folded, we recommend using our wing securing aids (ask your local<br />

dealer). With these supports mounted, wings are secured properly<br />

and the handling of the aircraft will be mu<strong>ch</strong> easier.<br />

When the aircraft has to be moved by trailer, please ask your<br />

authorized REMOS dealer for advice. When placed on a trailer in a<br />

wrong way, serious damage could result.<br />
