The Naish Foil System utilizes M6 stainless steel bolts throughout. Remember that foils are (3) M6 30 mm Mast Screws utilized in a very corrosive marine environment; here are three important tips to maximize the life of your foil: BASE 1) Whenever possible, apply anti-seizing compound to the screw threads before assembling. C (4) M6 T-nuts 2) Always use the correct screwdriver (Phillips #3) to avoid damaging the screw slots. 3) Always rinse off with fresh water after use.

It’s easiest if you assemble your new foil for the first time in the order below: MAST A) ATTACH THE ADJUSTABLE STABILIZER (REAR WING): With the fuselage upside down, insert the mini T-nuts on the non-countersunk side at the back of the fuselage. Slide the back (4) M6 25 mm Screws wing into the slot in the back of the fuselage from underneath and position it so the front hole in the wing is aligned to the forward hole in the fuselage. Insert the 15 mm front screw (red); you will need to use a screwdriver, as the front hole in the wing is a tight fit. Tighten the screw Attaching the Base to the Board until it is engaged with the mini T-nut and is hand-tight. Do the same with the back screw—it’s a looser fit, so be careful not to cross thread. For the “factory setting”, match the notch on the back of the wing to the notches on the back of the fuselage and tighten both screws.

B) ATTACH THE MAIN FOIL (FRONT WING): Keeping the fuselage turned bottom up, position the front wing (with logo down) to the scarf joint. Thread the 25 mm center screw (blue) until hand-tight. Do the same with the other two screws.

C) ATTACH THE BASEPLATE TO THE MAST: Using the (3) 30 mm screws, tighten beginning B with the center screw first, then the front and finally the back screw. (Note: both normal and Deep Tuttle Baseplates are available as accessories.)

D) ATTACH THE MAST/BASEPLATE ASSEMBLY TO THE FUSELAGE: Insert the mast into the D fuselage, then thread (3) 45 mm (gold) screws until hand-tight. As before, the final tightening BACK WING order is center screw first, followed by front screw and then back screw. (2) M6 Mini T-nuts
