SPECIFIC PRECAUTIONS FOR THE FOI ALLVATOR
The fuselage of your ALLVATOR foil is made of aluminum. The screws and inserts of the carbon mast are
made of metal. So they will be subjected to a normal phenomenon called galvanic corrosion. Phenomenon all
the more important in a salty environment.
The ALLVATOR foil therefore requires a rigorous maintenance.
It is imperative to completely dismantle and scrupulously rinse its ALLVATOR foil after each use and store it dry
in its cover between each session.
Failure to comply with this recommendation will result in premature and irreparable wear of the foil. Seawater will
stagnate in the mast and accelerate the process of internal corrosion.
If corrosion does not appear externally, aluminum can corrode from the inside and eventually lead to a clean

break. GONG SUP 1 will not be responsible in case of accident due to poor maintenance of the equipment.
To preserve your foil ALLVATOR, GONG SUP 1 recommends that you regularly apply a galvanic anti-corrosion
lubricant in the areas of interlocking and screw inserts.
As for the carbon parts of your foil, regular maintenance and checking of their condition are necessary.
Carbon is a noble and efficient material if it is well maintained. However, it is sensitive to shocks, especially
on the tips and trailing edges. A hitch in the carbon can be particularly hurtful and considerably impacts the
performance of the foil. Consult your local repairer/shaper promptly for repair of your equipment if you notice
that it is damaged.
Make sure that sand can never get into inserts or boxes before screwing. If sand has penetrated: rinse with
plenty of water. Otherwise it could cause irreversible damage to the threads.
Remember to check the tightness of all the elements of the foil before each use.
