Step 1
Use a file to create a flat area on the main and nose gear
wires for the wheel collar setscrews. This helps in keeping
them secure on the landing gear.
Step 2
Attach the 5/32-inch wheel collar to the landing gear
using a 3mm setscrew and the included 1.5mm hex
wrench. Use threadlock on the setscrew to prevent it from
vibrating loose.
Step 3
Slide the wheel onto the gear and secure it with a final
wheel collar and setscrew.
Important: Use threadlock on
any metal-to-metal fasteners.
