A. Removal of the Actuator Eye-End of the Aileron Servo-Control
(2) Remove the screws (1), the washers (2) and the lockplate (8).
(3) Use the 0U144765 WRENCH - AILERON SERVOCONTROL ADJUSTMENT and 0U144768 HOLDING WRENCH - AILERON SERVOCONTROL ADJUSTMENT to release the eye-end (13) from the actuator body.
(b) Remove the lockwasher (9) from the end of the actuator body.
Subtask 27-14-51-220-054-A WARNING:
USE PROTECTIVE GOGGLES AND GLOVES WHEN YOU REMOVE OR INSTALL LOCKWIRE. EACH TIME YOU CUT LOCKWIRE, REMOVE AND DISCARD IT IMMEDIATELY. LOOSE LOCKWIRE CAN CUT YOU OR MAKE YOU BLIND, AND/OR CAN CAUSE DAMAGE.
(1) Remove and discard the lockwire from the two screws (1). (2) Remove the screws (1), the washers (2) and the lockplate (8).
(3) Use the 0U144765 WRENCH - AILERON SERVOCONTROL ADJUSTMENT and 0U144768 HOLDING WRENCH - AILERON SERVOCONTROL ADJUSTMENT to release the eye-end (13) from the actuator body.
NOTE: A torque force of between 6 m.daN (44.2 lbf.ft) and 7 m.daN (51.6 lbf.ft) will be necessary to release the eye-end.
NOTE: There is a Linear Variable Displacement Transducer (LVDT) in the servo-control block. The core of the LVDT is attached to the eye-end. When you remove the eye-end, the LVDT core is also removed. The coil of the LVDT stays in the actuator body.
(4) Remove the eye-end (13): CAUTION:
DO NOT CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE LVDT CORE WHEN YOU REMOVE THE ACTUATOR EYE-END. THE CORE AND THE COIL ARE A PAIR. IT WILL BE NECESSARY TO USE THEM AGAIN.
(a) Remove the eye-end (13) from the actuator body, together with the LVDT core (7). (b) Remove the lockwasher (9) from the end of the actuator body.
B. Dimensional Checks
(1) Measure and write down dimension 'X' (the length from the end of the LVDT core to the rear face of the eye-end flange).
Subtask 27-14-51-020-057-A (1) Measure and write down dimension 'X' (the length from the end of the LVDT core to the rear face of the eye-end flange).
