ILERON CONTROL
To remove aileron, disconnect one end of push-pull rod and remove pins from
hinges.
Reverse above procedure to reinstall aileron insuring that, with stick vertical, the
aileron’s trailing edge is aligned with wing’s trailing edge.
Through access panels located on wing’s bottom, check that the bellcrank lever
is in neutral position, i.e. the inside arm at right angle with spar axis. To remove a
wing, release pins (4) that secure short bar (3) to main rods (5). The steel cable
system is designed to insure proper cable tension without the need to check
whenever the wings are removed. It is however recommended that periodic
checks be carried out and proper tension applied by acting on the two turnbuckles
(8) located below the two seats.
Also check periodically that pulleys rotate freely and tolerance for entire linkage
is within standards (ref. Section B).
