with the arm furthest from the steering arm. The steering servo requires a strong servo
arm at least 18mm between centres, using your radio set the servo arm neutral position
parallel to the steering arm fixed to the nose leg, with the wheel straight. Assemble the
linkage from two plastic ball-Links and a single length of M3 x 30 all-thread. Fix the
ball-links to the steering and servo arm with M3 x 16 Allen screws and M3 loc nuts. The
mounting plate is notched to clear the up line air connection nipple. Some units have
been assembled with the nipple on the opposite side, you can either notch the mounting
plate or switch the cylinder over. There are six mounting holes in the retract frame, but
only four are required. Before drilling the mounting holes place the nose leg in the
down position and check there is 2-3mm clearance between the back of the leg and
nose former. Drill four holes ø 4mm adding a screw into each hole as you drill, this
helps ensure the holes all match. Remove the nose unit and open each hole to ø5.5mm
ready for M4 T-nuts. The position of the rear fixing close to the nipple notch may break
into the cut-out, in this case the T-nut will require part of the flange removing. Install the
T nuts with some slow setting epoxy glue, pull them partially home with an M4 screw
and washer before installing the nose unit and tightening until fully seated. Installation of
the nose unit is made easier if you remove the rear nose former cross link section of
wood.
