I. Back-Up Landing Gear Extender Actuator Assembly
– NOTE –
PA32R-301 airplanes with s/n’s 32R-8013001 thru 32R-
8613005 and 3213001 thru 3213002, and PA32R-301T air-
planes with s/n’s 32R-8029001 thru 32R-8029110, 32R-
8029121 thru 32R-8629006 and 3229001 thru 3229003 may be
equipped with a back-up landing gear extender. Refer to Piper
Service Bulletin No. 866A
– NOTE–
Beginning with airplane s/n’s 3213003 and up, Piper Aircraft
no longer installs the automatic gear extender system. Piper
kit, P/N 765 199, provides information concerning the removal
of the backup landing gear extension system
(1) Removal of Back-Up Landing Gear Extender Actuator Assembly. (Refer to Figure 6.)
The back-up landing gear extender actuator is located under the center seat floorboard. Gain
access to the actuator by removing center seats and floorboard.
(a) Disconnect actuator electrical leads at quick disconnect terminals.
(b) Disconnect manual override control rod at actuator control arm by removing cotter pin,
washers, and clevis pin.
(c) Disconnect pressure and static hoses from elbows of diaphragm housing by releasing clamps
and sliding hoses from their elbows. Hoses should be tagged for ease of reassembly.
(d) Place a shop cloth under actuator hydraulic valve to absorb fluid. Disconnect hydraulic tubes
from cross and tee. Cover open tubes and fittings to prevent contamination.
(e) Remove the hardware that secure the actuator base to the mountin~ brackets. There are two
mounting bolts at the inboard side of the base and one mounting screw at the outboard side
of the diaphragm housing. Remove the actuator from the mounting brackets.
(2) Installation of Back-Up Landing Gear Extender Actuator Assembly. (Refer to Figure 6.)
(a) Position the gear back-up extender actuator against its mounting brackets and install
attaching hardware. Do not tighten nuts.
1 With the base attached and before installing the attaching screw through the ring of the
diaphragm housing, insure that the attaching holes in the housing and mounting bracket
align without using force. Should they misalign, it may be necessary to reform the main
fuselage mounting bracket.
2 To reform the main fuselage mounting bracket, an aligning tool may be used (Refer to
Figure 29-5.) This tool may befabricatedfrom dimensions given in Chapter 95. When
proper alignment has been accomplished, tighten the attaching hardware.
(b) Connect the manual control push rod to the actuator control arm using clevis pin. Place a
washer over end of clevis pin and secure with cotter pin.
