B. Adjustment of the Release Shaft Assembly
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) Measure the dimension "P" between the override-clutch release lever (218) and the release lever pin (217). The distance "P" must be between 0.5 mm (0.020 in.) and 1.5 mm (0.059 in.).

     (b) Tighten the nut (216).
   (3) Install the rigging pin (202) into the shaft lever (201) and make sure that it engages also into the door structure.
NOTE: The rigging pin (202) is part of the 98D52208282000 PIN-RIGGING,DOOR MECHANISM.
   (4) If you cannot install the rigging pin (202), adjust the length of the link rod (215) as follows:
     (a) If necessary, cut and remove the lockwire and loosen the jam nuts (213).
     (b) Turn the rod (214) until you can install the rigging pin (202) into the door structure.
     (c) Tighten the jam nuts (213) and safety them with 14QFB1Wire-Locking Dia: 0.8 mm CRES Nickel Alloy - on the locking devices (212).
   (5) Make sure that the clearance between the target of the actuation lever (207) and the proximity sensor 5WN or 6WN is correctly adjusted (Ref. AMM TASK 52-71-00-820-009).
   (6) Measure the dimension "N" between the head of the stop bolt (203) and the actuation lever (207). The dimension "N" must be between 0.2 mm (0.008 in.) and 0.4 mm (0.016 in.).
   (7) If the dimension "N" is out of tolerance, adjust the stop bolt (203) as follows:
     (a) Remove the nut (206) and the stop bolt (203) together with the washers set (204) from the stop fitting (205).
     (b) Prepare the thickness of the washers set (204) so that the dimension "N" is correct.
     (c) Install the stop bolt (203) together with the washers set (204) and the nut (206).
   (8) Pull up the slide control handle (187) in the DISARMED position and safety it with the 98A52107632000 PIN - SAFETY SLIDE.
   (9) Measure the dimension "R" between the forward edge of the override-clutch release lever (218) and the release lever pin (217). The dimension "R" must be between 10.0 mm (0.394 in.) and 14.0 mm (0.551 in.).
   (10) If the dimension "R" is out of tolerance, adjust the length of the connection rod (211) as follows:
     (a) If necessary, cut and remove the lockwire and loosen the jam nuts (208).
     (b) Turn the rod (210) until the dimension "R" is correct.
     (c) Tighten the jam nuts (208) and safety them with 14QFB1Wire-Locking Dia: 0.8 mm CRES Nickel Alloy - on the locking devices (209).
   (11) Make sure that the release travel between the release lever (233) of the door damper and the operation lever (231) is correct (refer also to Para. C.).
F Adjustment of the Release Travel ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
   (12) Measure the dimension "S" between the rivet head (219) of the override-clutch release lever (218) and the stop (220). The dimension "S" must be between 1.4 mm (0.055 in.) and 3.4 mm (0.134 in.).
   (13) If the dimension "S" is out of tolerance, add or remove the washer of the washerset (221) as necessary.
NOTE: If necessary, use a new universal AL-rivet, dia. 4.8 mm (0.19 in.) (219).
   (14) Do the subsequent clearance check after a "simulated emergency opening":
NOTE: In the "simulated emergency opening"
  • the override-clutch release lever (218) is in the energized position
  • the door is in the fully open position.
     (a) Make sure that the aircraft is in the maintenance configuration as described in the functional test (Ref. AMM TASK 52-22-00-720-001).
     (b) Measure the clearance "T" between the rivet end (219) and the stop (220) which must be 1.0 mm (0.039 in.) minimum.
NOTE: This makes sure that the door moves freely from the open to the closed position after a "simulated emergency opening".
     (c) If the clearance "T" is less than 1.0 mm (0.039 in.), remove the material from the rivet end (219) to get the correct clearance.
   (15) Remove the 98A52107632000 PIN - SAFETY SLIDE and push down the slide control handle (187) in the armed position.

  • the 98A52107632000 PIN - SAFETY SLIDE is removed and the slide control handle of related door is in the armed position
  • the percussion mechanism of the door damper is blocked with the related stowage pin (239)
   (2) Measure the dimension "U" between the lower edge of the release lever (233) and the top of the stop bolt (234) as follows:
     (a) Pull up the inboard handle to the OPEN position until the door lifts in its fully up position.
NOTE: The door must be flush with the opening of the door frame lining and not opened.
     (b) Loosen the knurled screw (232) and carefully extend the release lever (233) until it touches the stop bolt (234).
     (c) Put a mark on the stop bolt (234) to show the position of the lower edge of the release lever (233).
