Actuator installation
2.2 ACTUATOR INSTALLATION
If the actuator doesn't have any internal limit switches
it's necessary to install them externally.
To avoid the possibility of mechanical and electrical
damage, the actuator travel must match exactly
with
the flaps travel: with the actuator completely retracted
(limit switch reached) the flaps must be completely
retracted (or completely extracted for inverse
mechanical coupling); with the actuator completely
extracted the flaps must be completely extracted (or
completely retracted for inverse mechanical coupling).
Adjust your actuator travel if it does not coincide with
the flaps travel, for example using an arm/lever with an
appropriate length.
If the condition above indicated is not satisfied the
actuator is not protected against possible overtravel
during flap extension and retraction, therefore a pilot
that drive the flaps manually (for example
using
“Manual” mode of the EFCX) can cause mechanical
damage if he don't stop exactly when the flaps have
reached the up and down positions.
