Hangar 9 Jackal 50 ARF



 

5. Slide the adapter on the axle. Use a felt-tipped pen 

to mark the location for the setscrew and the outside edge 

where the axle will need trimmed.



 

6. Use a rotary tool and cutoff wheel to trim the length 

of the axle. Use a flat file to make a 1/4-inch (6mm) wide flat 

where the setscrew from the adapter will rest.



 

7. Place a drop of light machine oil on the axle before 

sliding it into the wheel so it rolls smoothly during takeoff 

and landing.



 

8. Assemble the axle and wheel as shown. Use 

threadlock on the setscrew before tightening it on the flat 

area made in the previous step.



 

9. Tighten the wheel assembly to the main gear 

strut. Use the setscrews provided with the axle adapters 

and a 5/64-inch hex wrench to tighten the setscrews. The 

setscrews will leave a mark on the strut where you will file in 

the next step.

hint

: With the retract mechanism in the up position, 

hold the retract frame and wheel flat on your work 

surface. This will set the wheel to the correct alignment.



 

10. Use a flat file to make a flat on the strut for the 

setscrews. This will provide an area for the setscrews to be 

tightened on, and prevent the wheel from rotating during 

takeoff and landing.



 

11. You can now attach the wheel assembly to the 

strut using the setscrews and a 5/64-inch hex wrench. Make 

sure to use threadlock on the setscrews to prevent them 

from vibrating loose. Make sure the wheel is perpendicular 

to the retract actuator before tightening the setscrews.
