Default Std. 2 Jantar - CG Tost hook?

The manual mentions that a CG hook can be mounted on the landing gear.

Does
anyone have instructions from the factory on that process?
Thanks

A long time ago I had a 19m Jantar, and was interested in the same thing.
It did not back release, just started to pitch up and down. I did obtain
some pictures of one in Ireland that had the modification of a hook welded
to the u/c, though I never got round to doing it. I'll have a search round
to see if I've still got them, this was pre-computer storage. Even before
that there was a Std Jantar on site, that may have been modified, one of
the partners in that is one of my partners now in a DG500, so I'll ask
him.
