INSTALLATION
13. Attach the trim tab to the right hand elevator as per parts drawing. Safety
wire the attach bolts to the End Ribs. HINT: There are small openings in
each End Rib, at the bend, which works well.
14. Install the hinge lock into the trim tab and slide over the center pivot stub.
Hold the hinge lock tight into position and transfer drill # 30 through the top
two holes in the trim tab into the hinge lock.
15. Rivet the hinge lock in place.
16. Install the bottom rivets previously omitted.
17. Run the servo to the half travel position. You can do this by applying
current to the appropriate wires and moving the servo to its limiting
positions. Make a pencil mark on the servo arm for each limit. Mark half
travel and move the servo to this position.
18. Attach the 2 trim tab horns to the underside of the trim tab as per FIGURE
01D-18 and the parts manual. Use the horns to transfer drill in the tab and
rivet.
19. Secure the trim tab in neutral position and fabricate the push rod from the
supplied all thread rod.
NOTE: The servo must be in its half travel position
and the tab neutral.
