NAVIGATION LIGHT MOUNTING INSERT
Instructions for A650 or W1285 Light installations

NOTE: Dimensional measurements are based from the dimples in the navigation light mounting area to the indicated edges. Use a square to measure from edges. Wash off mold release film with water.
STEP #1
Tape navigation light mounting insert on fiberglass wingtip according to dimensions A, B, and C. This is the ideal location from the master insert. Due to manufacturing irregularities between wingtips and inserts small adjustments may be necessary. After any adjustments have been made check to see the insert touches the wingtip uniformly.
STEP #2
Some additional trimming may be required to achieve STEP #1. Use extreme caution when trimming inside of the line on the insert, this is the tangent line between the wingtip and the insert. (Body filler will be required to blend the two components should you trim beyond this line).
STEP #3
After trimming, outline the insert onto the wingtip.
STEP #4
Cut out the area 1/16” to 1/8” inside the line in STEP #3.
STEP #5
Bevel the edge of the insert and the wingtip opposite each other.
STEP #6
Place a bead of body filler or fiberglass resin on the beveled edges and bond the components together. Alternative Method: Aluminum duct tape applied to the exterior will hold alignment until completing step #7.
STEP #7
Place one or two layers of fiberglass on the interior overlapping 1” to 2” on either side of the bonding joint
STEP #8
If necessary fill any exterior irregularities with body filler.
