Wings disassembly
First of all, drain off the fuel from both wing tanks.
Disconnect ailerons pushrods from the control stick and flaps pushrods (in the central tunnel) inside the
cockpit.
Release and remove the locking nuts of the wing pins bolts. Screw the bolts out by approx. 2cm.
Beat out the bottom pin by slight tapping on the head of the bolt by the hammer. Unscrew the bolt and
remove the bottom pin.
If necessary, the assistant (holding the wing by the wing tip) can slightly lift the wing up to enable pins to
be pulled-off more easily.
Beat out the upper pin by the hammer with a help of any metallic rod of Ø 18mm.
After the pins are removed, the assistant holds the wing by the wingtip and you hold it by the root. (the
third person can hold the wing by the flap).
Partially pull the wing out of the fuselage to reach the space between the wing and fuselage and so to
reach enough access to disconnect the equipment. All persons keep holding and supporting the wing to
avoid its fall.
You can support the wing by your knees at the area of wing root (or the third person can assist with) to
disconnect the rest of the equipment:
- static and dynamic pressure hoses of Pitot tube (just on the left wing)
Note: Pay attention not to interchange the hoses of Pitot tube during their next re-assembly.
- quick couplings of the fuel hoses
- cable connector of the fuel gauge
- cable connector of the strobes/position lights (if equipped with)
Store the wings on any safe and dry place with stable temperature. Wings need to be properly secured
and prevented from structural and surface damages.
