Adjustment of the Door Opening Angle
CAUTION:
IMMEDIATELY AFTER YOU OPEN THE CARGO COMPARTMENT DOOR, RECORD ON THE WORK CARD ON THE DOOR, THE DATE AND TIME WHEN YOU OPENED IT. IF THE CARGO COMPARTMENT DOOR STAYS OPEN FOR 12 HOURS OR MORE, YOU MUST BLEED THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM RELATED TO IT. IF YOU DO NOT OBEY THESE PRECAUTIONS, THE DOOR CAN CLOSE SUDDENLY WHEN YOU SET THE DOOR TO "CLOSE". THIS CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE DOOR AND TO THE AIRCRAFT STRUCTURE.

A. Adjustment of the Door Opening Angle
(1) Close the cargo door (Ref. AMM TASK 52-30-00-860-001).
(2) Hold the CLINOMETER in position at the actuator attachment fitting with the cargo door in the locked position.
(3) Measure and write down the number of degrees.
(4) Open the cargo door to a vertical position (Ref. AMM TASK 52-30-00-860-001).
(5) Disconnect the eye-ends (93) of both door actuator (90) as follows:
(a) Remove the nuts (89), the washers (87), the bolts (86) and the bonding jumpers (88) from the eye-end (93).
(b) If necessary, remove and discard the cotter pin (81) from the bolt (85).
(c) Remove the nut (82) and the washers (83) from the bolt (85).
(d) Support the door actuators (90) and remove the bolt (85) with the washer (84) from the door fitting.
(e) Disconnect the eye-end (93) from the actuator attachment fitting.
(6) Open the cargo door with the crane to an opening angle of 136 deg (Ref. AMM TASK 52-30-00-860-005) .
(7) Install the 98D52307524000 STRUT-SUPPORT,CARGO DOORS to safety the opened cargo door.
(a) Cut and remove the lockwire from the locking devices (91) and the nuts (92).
(b) Loosen the nuts (92).
(c) Turn the eye-end (93) until you can install the bolt (85) freely.
(e) Install the bolts (85) with the washers (84) in the actuator attachment fitting.
(12) Remove the 98D52307524000 STRUT-SUPPORT,CARGO DOORS and disconnect the crane from the cargo door.
(13) Close and lock the cargo door (Ref. AMM TASK 52-30-00-860-002).
(16) If the door opening angle is less then 135 deg. adjust the length of the both door actuator as follows:
(b) Turn the piston rod (90) of both door actuators with the same quantity of rotation to get the correct opening angle.
(c) Open the cargo door and make sure that the door opening angle is between 135 deg. and 136 deg.
(17) TORQUE the nut (92) to between 14.5 and 12.5 m.daN (106.93 and 92.18 lbf.ft )
.
(18) Safety the nuts (92) and the locking devices (91) with14QFB1 Wire-Locking Dia: 0.8 mm CRES Nickel Alloy - .
(19) TORQUE the nuts (82) to between 1.35 and 1 m.daN (119.47 and 88.50 lbf.in )
and safety it with the new AIPC 52-36-02-03-080 COTTER PINS (81) or AIPC 52-36-82-03-080 COTTER PINS (81).
(20) Install the bolts (86), the washers (87), the bonding jumpers (88) and the nuts (89) on the eye-end (93). (Ref. AMM TASK 20-28-00-912-802).
5. Close-up(1) Close the cargo door (Ref. AMM TASK 52-30-00-860-001).

(7) Install the 98D52307524000 STRUT-SUPPORT,CARGO DOORS to safety the opened cargo door.
- Make sure that the length of each support strut is correctly adjusted so that the related pip pin goes in freely into the cargo door.
- Make sure that the pistons of the door actuators do not damage the aircraft structure.
NOTE: The bores are align if the bolt (85) goes in freely.
(10) If not, adjust the length of the door actuators (90) as follows: (a) Cut and remove the lockwire from the locking devices (91) and the nuts (92).
(b) Loosen the nuts (92).
(c) Turn the eye-end (93) until you can install the bolt (85) freely.
- Make sure that the bonding angle at the eye-end (93) show downside.
(e) Install the bolts (85) with the washers (84) in the actuator attachment fitting.
- Make sure that the bolt (85) goes in freely.
(12) Remove the 98D52307524000 STRUT-SUPPORT,CARGO DOORS and disconnect the crane from the cargo door.
(13) Close and lock the cargo door (Ref. AMM TASK 52-30-00-860-002).
- Make sure that the two door actuators disengage at the same time.
- Make sure that the distance 'a' is more than 7.6 mm (0.2992 in.).
(16) If the door opening angle is less then 135 deg. adjust the length of the both door actuator as follows:
NOTE: A full rotation (360 deg.) of piston rod (90) increases the opening angle to 1 deg.
(a) Close the cargo door until it is in the vertical position. (b) Turn the piston rod (90) of both door actuators with the same quantity of rotation to get the correct opening angle.
(c) Open the cargo door and make sure that the door opening angle is between 135 deg. and 136 deg.
(17) TORQUE the nut (92) to between 14.5 and 12.5 m.daN (106.93 and 92.18 lbf.ft )
. (18) Safety the nuts (92) and the locking devices (91) with
(19) TORQUE the nuts (82) to between 1.35 and 1 m.daN (119.47 and 88.50 lbf.in )
and safety it with the new AIPC 52-36-02-03-080 COTTER PINS (81) or AIPC 52-36-82-03-080 COTTER PINS (81). (20) Install the bolts (86), the washers (87), the bonding jumpers (88) and the nuts (89) on the eye-end (93). (Ref. AMM TASK 20-28-00-912-802).
