Main Landing Gear Installation - Retractable Gear.
1. Use a hobby knife with a new #11 blade to remove the covering
to access the landing gear mounts. Leave 1/32-inch (1mm) of covering
around the inside edges. Use a trim seal tool to iron down the covering
around the edges to finish the opening.
2. Place a main landing gear block in the wing. It may distort the
covering slightly during its installation. Make sure it is resting flat on the
landing gear rails.
3. Prepare a 5/64-inch (2mm) drill bit by wrapping a piece of low-tack
tape around the drill bit 5/8-inch (16mm) from the end of the bit. This will
act as a marker so you don’t accidentally drill through the top of the wing.
Place the drill bit in a drill.
4. Use the drill and drill bit prepared in the previous step to drill the
four holes for the landing gear block mounting screws.
5. Remove the landing gear block from the wing. Use a #1 Phillips
screwdriver to thread a 3mm x 14mm countersunk self-tapping screw in
each hole to cut threads into the landing gear rails. Remove the screws
after threading the holes.
