Landing Gear Installation
The Apprentice S 2 1.2m includes hardware options for wheel installation as
well as the necessary wire struts for the optional float installation (floats are
not included).
1. Install the main landing gear assembly into the slot on the bottom of the
fuselage.
2. Install the two landing gear retainers over the landing gear assembly as
shown, securing them with four 2.5mm x 8mm Phillips screws and a PH#1
screwdriver.
IMPORTANT:
Do not overtighten the screws in the plastic. Only tighten the
screws until the retainers are firmly seated and the landing gear is not loose.
3. Install the optional float set strut retaininers, securing them with four
2.5mm x 8mm Phillips screws and a PH#1 screwdriver, to ensure the
retainers do not become lost. These retainers are required for installation of
the optional float set mount wires.
1. Insert the two pins on the base of the vertical stabilizer through the holes in
the horizontal stabilizer as shown.
2. Guide the tail assembly under and between the control linkages, and insert
the vertical stabilizer pins into the corresponding holes in the rear of the
fuselage.
3. From the bottom of the fuselage, using a PH#1 screwdriver, install two
2.5mm x 8mm Phillips screws through the holes in the fuselage and into
the vertical stabilizer pins.
IMPORTANT:
Do not overtighten the screws in the plastic. Only tighten the
screws until the vertical and horizontal stabilizers are firmly seated.
4. Attach the clevises of the rudder and elevator control horns by gently prying
open the clevis, inserting the clevis pin through the outermost hole of the
control horn, and closing the side of the clevis over the clevis pin, capturing
the control horn between it.
5. Slide the retaining sleeve over the clevis to keep the clevis sides from opening.
