However
In the event the remaining clear wing is difficult to remove please refer to the steps below

The use of suitable protective gloves is imperative as the clear wings must be kept clean on the inside and outside as well as the edges, do not
conduct the onward procedure without wearing suitable gloves

Once removed from the vehicle the operative must ensure the Flying B assembly is placed on a clean protective surface The use of a suitable countersink drill (3mmx1.6mm) is recommended (Figure 8) the countersink drill must be capable of a
making a hole with a maximum width of 3mm, the tool Must Not contact the mascot or LED

Hint: A standard 3mm drill bit can be used however the drill must be used in conjunction with a drill stop tool to ensure a
depth of 3mm is not exceeded (Figure 9)

Once the hole is drilled use a suitable pick tool to remove the wing

Warning: Take care not to apply excessive heat as damaged can be caused to the Flying B and the LED inside the Flying B, any damage will
not be covered under Warranty
