FLIGHT SURFACES
1. Ailerons (Refer to Figure 1.)
CAUTION: CONTROL SURFACE SKINS MUST BE REPLACED IF THEY SUSTAIN DAMAGE OR
EXHIBIT CRACKS. LIMITED REPAIRS TO AILERON SKINS ARE AUTHORIZED ONLY AS
PROVIDED IN THIS MANUAL.
A. Removal
(1) Disconnect the aileron control rod at the aileron attachment point by removing the nut,
washers and bolt from the rod end bearing. To simplify installation note location of washers
removed.
(2) Remove the attaching nuts, bolts and washers from the hinges at the leading edge of the
aileron, and remove the aileron.
B. Installation
WARNING: ALL CONTROL SURFACES THAT HAVE BEEN REPLACED, REPAINTED, OR
REPAIRED AS AUTHORIZED IN THIS MANUAL, MUST BE BALANCED BEFORE
INSTALLATION. SEE INSTRUCTIONS IN BALANCING, BELOW.
(1) Move the aileron into place and install attaching bolts, washers and nuts. Ascertain that the
aileron is free to move with no interference.
(2) Attach the aileron control rod with bolts, washers and nut, dividing the washers so that the
aileron is free to rotate from stop to stop without the control rod binding or rubbing on the
opening in the aft spar. Be certain that the rod end bearing has no side play when tightening
the bolt and that the rod does not contact the side of the bracket.
(3) Actuate the aileron controls to insure freedom of movement.
