ADG Handle
1. ADG Release Handle
This handle deploys (by cable) the ADG. The handle is safety wired in the
stowed position. Pulling the handle aft will break the safety wire. A swift
upward motion will unlatch and deploy the ADG.
When the ADG is fully out, an overcenter link locks the ADG in the deployed
position and locks the handle in the up position.
The handle operates in one direction only, to deploy the ADG. The ADG can
only be retracted on the ground by maintenance personnel.
