6.69.1 Description
 The elevator trim control system comprises a Trim Cable connected to a lubron block, so that the
cable is able to move the block fore and aft approximately 35mm. An aluminium rod is free to slide
through this lubron block and is centred by 2 compression springs. The output end of the rod is
connected to the Elevator Horn.
 This assembly allows a spring-loaded connection between the elevator trim lever and the elevator.
This spring loading force is used to trim the aircraft.

to ensure it has been correctly installed.
