Tail / Tube tail
The tail is made to keep the
windmill facing into the wind at
any time.
The tail is made of two different
pieces: a polyethylene vane and
a steel boom. They are put
together with three M-6 x 80
bolts,
six
wide-series
M-6
washers on both sides of the
vane, and three M-6 self-locking
nuts.
Tail tube / Alternator
The tail is attached to the
alternator at this point. Before
bolting the tube to the alternator,
pass the protective casing through
the tail tube. (Once the tube is
bolted, you will not be able to
install the casting).
This joint has two different systems to secure, one has a bolt going through the
tube, and the other one is a flange system. We first introduce the tail tube into
the back side of the alternator, and match the holes in both pieces. We use now
a hexagonal M-8 x 60 bolt, with two M-8 washers, one in each side and an self-
locking M-8 nut. Tighten both to 2,5 Kgr.
