assembly and tighten the cable by drawing the free end through the sleeve and running the
sleeve up against the thimble.
d. Verify that the cable is tight around the thimble, the sleeve is hard against the thimble and
the mark on the cable is located on the center apex of the thimble, then use a swaging tool
to swage the sleeve. Use a go-no-go gauge to very a correct swage.
e. The length of the free end of the cable beyond the edge of the swage fitting should be.
125-.50” when finished.
f. Repeat steps c-e with the extension end of the cable.
18. Use adhesive tape to attach cable end to the appropriate string used earlier and sue these
strings to pull the cable ends up to the retraction actuator and spring.
19. Ensure that the cables are not twisted and that the “retraction” end will connect to the water
rudder actuator and the “extension” end to the extension spring.
20. Attach the retraction turnbuckle assembly by inserting the clevis pin through its forward eye,
connecting it to the cheek plates attached to the actuator. Install an NAS1149CN616R washer
under the cotter pin. Insert and bend a new MS24665-151 cotter pin in the clevis pin per standard
practice.
21. Attach the extension turnbuckle assembly by slipping its forward eye onto the aft hook end of
the extension spring.
22. Adjust the turnbuckles per rigging procedure. (See “Inspect Yaw Rigging” on page 9-85.)
