WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT THE FLIGHT CONTROL SAFETY-LOCKS AND THE WARNING NOTICES ARE IN POSITION.
WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT THE GROUND SAFETY-LOCKS ARE IN POSITION ON THE LANDING GEAR. THIS WILL PREVENT UNWANTED MOVEMENT OF THE LANDING GEAR, AND THUS POSSIBLE INJURY TO PERSONS AND DAMAGE TO THE AIRCRAFT AND/OR EQUIPMENT.
WARNING: BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU USE CONSUMABLE MATERIALS. OBEY THE MATERIAL MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS AND YOUR LOCAL REGULATIONS.
CAUTION: THIS PART IS A REMOVABLE STRUCTURAL COMPONENT (RSC), WHICH CAN BE MOVED BETWEEN AIRCRAFT. THUS IT CAN HAVE DIFFERENT OPERATION CONDITIONS AND A DIFFERENT LIFE RECORD (FLIGHT HOURS/FLIGHT CYCLES/CALENDAR) FROM THE AIRCRAFT IT IS INSTALLED ON OR REMOVED FROM. THE OPERATOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SPECIFIC TRACKING AND CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS OF REMOVABLE STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS. INCORRECT MAINTENANCE OF THESE COMPONENTS CAN CAUSE A RISK FOR THE FLIGHT SAFETY.

  • on the RH wing, install the TOOL-BACKSTOP SLAT (2) on the outboard side of the track.
   (2) Push and hold the rear stop (4) away from its locked position. Install the track (1) into its correct location.
   (3) Release the rear stop (4) and make sure that it is correctly engaged in its locked position.
   (4) Remove the 98D27804014000 TOOL-BACKSTOP SLAT (TRACKS 1, 2, 3, AND 4) (2) from the track (1).
   (5) For track 1, do the electrical bonding test (Ref. AMM TASK 20-28-00-869-002).
   (6) Do a check of the position of the side-rollers at the track:
     (a) Move the applicable track (1) through its full range of travel and make sure that:
  • for tracks 1, 2 and 3, the side-rollers (25) touch the track (1) at some point of its travel
  • the points that touch do not stop the smooth travel of the track (1)
  • for track 4, the forward side-rollers (25) have a clearance (DIM. X) of between 1.25 mm (0.0492 in.) and 1.45 mm (0.0571 in.) at their nearest point to the track (1).
   (7) If necessary, adjust the non-datum side-rollers (25):
