Test fit the retract unit into the aircraft nose
gear mount. Remove any interference
material as necessary.
Note:
There should
be approximately 1/8” between the front of
the wheel well and the nose strut.
Once satisfied with the fit and location of the
retract unit, drill the required mounting holes
into the retract mount using #4 x ½” sheet
metal screws.
Note:
It is easiest to mark and
drills these holes with the nose strut in the
retracted position.
Install the required airlines onto the retract
unit and install the nose gear into the aircraft.
19.
Assemble the main retracts by dismantling
the cylinder bracket.
Note:
Remove the rear
screw and twist open the two brackets.
Remove from the cylinder the existing pivot
brackets to expose the pivot hole.
Place the cylinder into the retract bracket by
sliding the cylinder hole onto the pivot shaft
and screwing the cylinder actuator arm onto
the threaded shaft on the retract locking
mechanism.
Reassemble the cylinder bracket by closing
the brackets together and screwing the
assembly together.
If necessary, remove the “e” clip from the
open pivot rod. Remove the rod and slip the
retract gear slider into place. Reinsert the
rod and reapply the “e” clap to hold the
assembly together.
20.
Install the main retracts into the aircraft by
installing 4 ea. 4-40x3/4” screws from the
rear of the main retract bulkhead through the
retract mounting flanges exposed through the
front pivot brackets.
Install 4 ea. 4-40 lock nuts from the front and
tighten each assembly in place.
NOTE:
For the ducted fan version, clear away as
required the bottom of the intake duct at the face
of the fan to clear the main wheels so that they
fully retract into the wheel wells.
