Brief Description: Routing Elevator Trim Cables
|
|
8-7, Step 4
Cut a hole in the web of both nose ribs using the dimensions in the figure. The hole is used for routing the trim cables. Apparently I skipped this step when I assembled the horizontal stabilizer four years ago. It wasn't all that difficult cutting the hole with the stabilizer mounted on the empennage.
11-7, Steps 1, 2, & 3
Secure the elevator in the "trail" position by placing strips of duct tape over the gap between the elevator counterbalance arm and the horizontal stabilizer.
Transfer the template shown to a piece of stiff cardboard or wood. Adjust the rod end bearings on the F-1091 Elevator Pushrod until the angle ofthe F-635 Bellcrank Assembly matches that of the template.
Tighten the jam nuts against the threaded inserts.
11-10, Step 2
Loosely place the F-1095 Elevator Trim Actuator Sub-Assembly in the aft fuselage. Route the CT Q-43 Elevator Trim Cables through the holes in the Horizontal Stablizer Inboard Nose Ribs, then through the snap bushings installed in the Horizontal Stablizer Front Spar and Horizontal Stablizer Rear Spar, through the Elevator Leading Edges, then through the snap bushings installed in the Elevator Front Spars, and finally through the openings in the bottoms of the elevators. Progressively move the elevator trim actuator sub-assembly into final position while routing the elevator trim cables.
I couldn't finish this task without some assistance. I needed three hands to route the cable through the horizontal stabilizer. I also put an adel clamp on to hold the trim cables.
