• 

Secure the axle and wheel spat assembly to the    
landing gear with the Nyloc style nut.

With the wheel spat level, install a self tapping screw 
through the pre-drilled hole in the alloy landing gear to 
prevent the wheel spat from rotating 

 

STEP 2:  Landing Gear & Wheel Spat Assembly (Nose Gear) 

• 

Remove the upper scissor arm from the nose leg     
assembly. 

• 

Fit the lower leg section through the wheel opening of 
the wheel spat. 

• 

Position the nose leg fork in the pre-installed plywood 
support in the wheel spat. 

• 

Position the axle hole so that it is approximately 16mm 
(5/8”) from the bottom of the wheel spat. 

• 

Drill a 4mm (5/32”) hole. 

• 

Fit the axle through the wheel spat assembly and the 
wheel using one of the 4mm nylon spacers on either 
side of the wheel. 

• 

Take care not to over tighten the Nyloc nut which 
could cause the wheel to jam. 

• 

Re-assemble the nose leg.  

• 

Install both the main landing gear and 
nose gear assemblies using the 18mm 
long cap screws and washers provided.
