PROCEDURE (REMOVAL)
Note: The procedure below describes removing the main gear with the main wheels attached. That would
necessitate disconnecting the brake pipes from the brake assembly and separating the lines from the strut. The
main wheel assemblies (wheel, brake assembly and axle) can be removed (from the strut) before the strut is
dropped out from the aircraft, which does not require the disconnection of the brake pipes at the brake
assembly, but do require the separation of the brake lines from the strut. Refer to paragraph 4.4.1.3.
Retain any bolts, nuts (except lock-nuts) spacers, screws and washers (with the exception of lock-washers) for
reassembly.
1.
Hoist the aircraft onto supports. If necessary, balance the sideways movement of the aircraft by placing
padded stands under the wings at the hard points (the main spars).
2.
Remove the front seats (refer to paragraph 4.3.2.1).
3.
Remove the floor inspection panels (by unscrewing the button-head screws that retain them) to gain
access to the bolts / nuts retaining the main gear to the fuselage.
4.
Release the brake pressure and drain the brake fluid (refer to paragraph 9.1).
5.
Disconnect the brake lines (1) at the break assembly (2).
6.
Carefully separate the brake lines from the glue securing the brake line to the grooves in the
undercarriage legs.
