Go to the other end of the runway. Before you do anything more you will want to back off
the nut for the runway bolt and drop the approach ramp bracket. This will allow you to
turn the safety linkage rod handle clockwise until the spacer is flush with the runway or
the handle is tight. (remember that the nuts on the safety linkage rod under the runway
should be threaded all the way on to rod). Once the spacer is tight with cross beam or
you are tight to threads under the runway, back off slightly to position the safety linkage
rod in the 11 o’clock position. Repeat the same step to attach the crossbeam linkage
rods to the safety linkage. Remember to tighten all connections including each end of the
crossbeam linkage rods.
Using a 19mm open end wrench and a pair of vise grips tighten the 19mm nut against
the welded nut on the linkage rod. Clamp the vise grip tightly to the linkage rod before
using the 19mm wrench. Once clamped tightly, use the 19mm wrench to tighten
completely. This will be slightly more difficult on the WF9000XLT as the window is small
and makes it a tight area to work. Repeat this on both ends of the runway. (make sure
that the unit is sitting on the main locks and not the secondary locks)
