Check the clearance between the top of the foil and top

terminal.

WARning: It is critical to have clearance between the top

foil and the top rigging fitting when the stay adjuster is in

the fully closed position. If the fittings touch, the unit will

jam or in the case of a Sta-Lok fitting, the terminal may

become unscrewed. This could cause catastrophic

failure to the spar and a life threatening situation
It is the responsibility of the rigger to check clearance.

TIP: Check clearance when the unit is on the ground,

before raising the headstay into position.
