AUTHORISED PERSONNEL
Any person performing maintenance of any kind on the aircraft or any component thereof must do so in
accordance with national legislation. This is the responsibility of the aircraft owner and any person who is to
perform any maintenance on the aircraft.
PROCEDURE
The procedure is identical for the port and starboard flaps.
1.
Flaps retracted to full up position.
2.
Take a straight edge and place it flat underneath the wing against the 3rd hinge bracket
(from the root) and along the rib rivets (but not on the rivets). If correctly adjusted the flap
should just touch the straight edge.
3.
To adjust, remove the flap inspection panel under the wing, lower the flaps and undo the
locknuts on both end of the flap pushrod. Retract the flaps.
4.
Take the straight edge and place it flat underneath the wing against the 3rd hinge bracket
(from the root) and along the rib rivets (but not on the rivets). Clamp the straight edge to the
bracket in this position, such that it stays flat underneath the wing.
5.
Turn the pushrod until the flap just touches the straight edge.
6.
Remove the straight edge.
7.
Lower the flaps to gain access to the flap side pushrod connection.
