4. Procedure
Subtask 32-11-11-420-079-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. Preparation for Installation
   (1) Use a Textile-Lint free Cotton - (Material No.14SBA1) made moist with Non Aqueous Cleaner-General - - (Material No.08BAA9) to clean the components and component interface.
   (2) Make sure that the parts retained from the removed component are clean and in the correct condition.
   (3) Apply Non Hardening Jointing Putty-High Temp. Area - Structure (Material No.06LDG2) to:
  • the interface of the uplock pin assembly and the MLG attachment lugs
  • the shanks (but not the threads) of the bolts (1)
  • the shank (but not the thread) of the static discharge connector (2)
  • the washers (4).
Subtask 32-11-11-420-080-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
B. Installation of the MLG Uplock Pin
   (1) Put the uplock pin (3) in position on the MLG attachment lugs.
   (2) Install the bolts (1), the static discharge connector (2), the washers (4) and the nuts (5).
   (3) TORQUE tighten the nuts (5) to 1.6 m.daN (11.80 lbf.ft ) T.
   (4) Loosen the nuts (5).
   (5) Do steps (3) and (4) two more times.
   (6) TORQUE tighten the nuts (5) to 1.6 m.daN (11.80 lbf.ft )
T.
   (7) If the cotter pin holes are not aligned, tighten the applicable nut(s) (5) until the subsequent slot in the nut aligns with the hole.
   (8) Install the new
AIPC 32-11-11-82-170 COTTER PINS (6).
   (9) Do an electrical bonding test between the MLG pintle pin bearing and the static discharge connector (2) (
Ref. AMM TASK 20-28-00-720-005):
     (a) Make sure that the bonding resistance value is no more than 10 milliohms.
NOTE: If the uplock pin (3) is replaced because of damage or the uplock position is possibly incorrect, check the uplock adjustment (Ref. AMM TASK 32-31-00-820-003).
Subtask 32-11-11-390-050-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
C. Sealant
   (1) Apply Polysulfide Sealant-General Purpose Fillet - (Material No.06AAB1) to:
  • the area around the interface between the uplock pin assembly and the MLG attachment lugs
  • the heads of the bolts (1)
  • the washers (4)
  • the nuts (5).
