File a flat on the wheel axels perpendicular to the axel
wrench flats.
Install a wheel on the axel with a wheel collar. Position
the collar set screw over the flat you filed.
(You may prefer to install the wheels and wheel pants
later as a final assembly step. They may get in the way
when handling the fuselage during assembly.)
Insert the wheel and axel into the wheel pant, then into
landing gear. Align the wheel pant indentation with the
landing gear. Add a nylon lock nut and tighten.
Predrill a 5/64” hole into the wheel pant then add a wood
screw to secure the wheel pants.
Install the tail wheel after the rudder installation.
Install the tailwheel using 3 wood screws. Position the
joint of the tail wheel assembly directly over the rudder
hinge line and mark the position of the screws. Turn the
screws into the fuselage and rudder. Remove the screws,
add a drop of thin CA glue to each hole to strengthen the
wood, and reinstall the screws. (Do not fully tighten the
tiller arm screw. The slot in the tiller arm allows the
screw move accounting for any misalignment between
the assembly & rudder.)
