Notes about normal unfold:
• Inner wings unfold first. The outer wings are
constrained by the wing latches (page 46).
• Outer wings unfold last. The wing latches release just
before the inner wings are level.
• Wings do not unfold to below wings-level.
Machine Damage Risk:
Set the switch to UNFOLD. If set to PARK or FIELD, the
wings may unfold to below level and drag inward on the
ground.
