Allen Key Batten Adjuster - Neilpryde Rs:racing Evo9 Bedienungsanleitung

ALLEN KEY BATTEN ADJUSTER

We are introducing a new batten adjuster that will allow you to add the sufficient amount
of batten tension without having to worry about damaging your Bat-Cam or struggling to
get the right pressure on the cams. The Allen key actuated system will keep the design
benefit found in the unique NeilPryde Bat-Cam system where you can adjust the batten
tension without the need of a tool. While actuating with a tool is an option to help you
tune the sail even more precisely.
You will find this system on all NeilPryde RS:Racing EVO9 sail on the bottom 2 battens
where the tension is the highest and there is the most need for this mechanism.
Please find a user guide on the mechanism below.

1. Using the Allen key actuated batten
tensioner without a key
a. To use the mechanism without the key
you need to open the Bat-Cam and
simply pull the tensioner out of the tube.
In the far end of the part you pull out
you will see a silver shaft.
b. Turn the shaft to lengthen or shorten the
tensioner, (longer for more tension, shorter
for less tension).
c. Slide the piece back into the batten
and close the Bat-Cam. If it's too
hard to close easily then please
make the mechanism a little shorter
to prevent possible damage to the
Bat-Cam.
d. Reduce the length till the bat-cam
pushes onto the batten and sits around
a 90 degree angle to the sail or until
it seems easy enough to close. If you
need more tension then please close
the Bat-Cam and go to the next step
in this guide where you will see how
to tension the batten with the key and
what to look for to make sure you don't
over tension your battens.
