46-3, Steps 6, 7, & 8
Split the Nose Wheel Assembly by removing the bolts holding the two Wheel Halves together.
Remove the nut and washers from the valve stem of the U 5.00X5-6IT Tube. Dust the tube and the inside of the U 5.00X5-6 Tire with talcum powder, then mount the tube and tire on the Wheel Halves. As before, the red dot on the tire is installed next to the valve stem. Bolt the wheel halves together.
Inflate the tire to 25 psi. Deflate it fully and re-inflate it a couple more times to work out any wrinkles in the tube. Inspect for a good seat around the wheel rim. The final inflation pressure is 40 psi.
46-4, Steps 1, 2, 3, & 4
Slide the U·1 001-L Main Gear Leg into the WD-1 021-L Left Landing Gear Mount. A holes is drilled through the upper end of the landing gear mount socket. The hole on the top side of the socket is drilled to final size while the corresponding hole in the bottom side is drilled undersize. Align the hole in the main gear leg with the hole in the top side of the socket.
Remove the U-1001-L Main Gear Leg from the WD-1021-L Left Landing Gear Mount and deburr the holes.
Apply a film of wheel bearing grease to the surfaces of the U-1 001-L Main Gear Leg that are not powder coated and that will contact the WD-1 021-L Left Landing Gear Mount socket. Slide the main gear leg into the left landing gear mount socket. then secure the main gear.
Slide one of the U-1003 Brake Mounts onto the U-1001-L Main Gear Leg axle. The hole on one side of the brake mount is still undersize and needs to be final-drilled. Align the holes in the brake mount with the holes in the axle, insert a 3/8" drill bit through the assembly, and final-drill the smaller hole. Remove the brake mount and deburr the holes.
