Subtask 78-31-03-420-050-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. Installation of the TRAS Locking Actuator
NOTE: These procedures are for the left TRAS locking actuator. The right side is opposite.
   (1) Removal of the protection covers
CAUTION: REMOVE THE PROTECTION COVERS FROM THE OPENINGS AS NECESSARY TO PREVENT ENGINE DAMAGE.
     (a) Make sure that you remove all the necessary COVER - PROTECTION to prevent damage to the engine.
   (2) Extend the locking actuator (1).
CAUTION: REMOVE THE PROTECTION COVERS FROM THE ACTUATOR BEFORE YOU MANUALLY EXTEND IT. IF YOU DO NOT OBEY THIS INSTRUCTION, THE ACTUATOR CAN OPERATE INCORRECTLY AND CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT.
     (a) Remove the protection covers from the locking actuator (1).
     (b) Turn the locking actuator (1) manual lock drive to the unlocked position.
     (c) Install the 636-3000-28GSE TR ACT. PRIM. LCK PIN in the locking actuator (1) through the manual lock drive to hold the manual lock drive in position.
     (d) Extend the locking actuator
CAUTION: DO NOT APPLY A TORQUE OF MORE THAN 70 LBF-IN (0.79 m.daN) WHEN YOU ADJUST THE ACTUATOR. TOO MUCH TORQUE CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE ACTUATOR.
       1 Carefully extend the locking actuator (1) to the length that you recorded when you removed the locking actuator (1). Use the DRIVE 0.2 IN - SQUARE and the WRENCH - TORQUE.
     (e) Install the COVER - PROTECTION back on the locking actuator (1).
   (3) Put the actuator seal (16) on the locking actuator (1).
     (a) Move the actuator seal (16) to the base of the locking actuator (1).
     (b) Make sure that the metal plate of the seal touches the actuator seal backing plate.
   (4) Put the locking actuator (1) in position on the thrust reverser.
     (a) Carefully put the locking actuator (1) through the TRAS fitting.
     (b) Turn the locking actuator (1) approximately 90 degrees until the locking actuator (1) rod end can fit through the cascade ring bumper.
     (c) Turn the locking actuator (1) back 90 degrees when the locking actuator (1) rod end is through the cascade ring bumper.
     (d) Put the locking actuator (1) in position as follows:
CAUTION: MAKE SURE THAT THE ACTUATOR ROD END ALIGNS WITH THE TRANSLATING SLEEVE ACTUATOR FITTING. DO NOT USE FORCE TO PUT THE ACTUATOR ROD END INTO POSITION. IF YOU DO NOT OBETY THIS INSTRUCTION, DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT CAN OCCUR.
       1 Carefully move the locking actuator (1) aft until the locking actuator (1) rod end aligns with the translating sleeve actuator fitting.
   (5) Apply a thin layer of anti-seize compound (Material No.PU5-0005) or equivalent (Ref. AMM TASK 70-30-00-918-803) to the two gimbal pins (11).

   (9) Apply a thin layer of anti-seize compound (Material No.
PU5-0005) or equivalent (Ref. AMM TASK 70-30-00-918-803) to the shank and threads of the bolt (2).
   (10) Attach the locking actuator (1) to the translating sleeve fitting with the bolt (2) and bushing (3).
   (11) TORQUE the bolt (2) to between 420 and 370 lbf.in (4.75 and 4.18 m.daN ) T.
   (12) Attach the grounding strap (14) to the locking actuator (1).
     (a) Clean the surface where the grounding strap (14) attaches to the locking actuator (1) with a clean lint-free cotton cloth (Material No.
PU1-0001) and PU2-0001alcohol, isopropyl.
     (b) Remove the PU2-0001alcohol, isopropyl from the surface with a clean lint-free cotton cloth (Material No.PU1-0001) before it dries.
     (c) Attach the grounding strap (14) to the locking feedback actuator (1) with the bolt (15) and washers (12) and (13).
     (d) TORQUE the bolt (15) to between 35 and 31.5 lbf.in (0.40 and 0.36 m.daN ) T.
     (e) Measure the resistance between the grounding strap (14) lug and the lower torque box with an OHMMETER MULTIRANGE. Make sure that the resistance is 0.0100 ohms or less.
     (f) If the resistance is more than 0.0100 ohms, remove the bolt (15) and washers (12) and (13) and do steps 4.A.(12)(a) thru 4.A.(12)(e) again.
   (13) Remove the COVER - PROTECTION from the locking actuator (1), Manual Drive Unit (MDU), stow tube, return tube, track lock return tube and track lock valve supply tube.
   (14) Connect the track lock return tube and track lock valve supply tube to the locking actuator (1) (
Ref. AMM TASK 78-31-50-400-801).
   (15) Connect the stow tube and the return tube to the locking actuator (1) (Ref. AMM TASK 78-31-50-400-801).
   (16) If you removed the clamps and hardware on the hydraulic tubes, install the clamps and hardware back on the hydraulic tubes and torque box (Ref. AMM TASK 78-31-50-400-801).
   (17) Connect the flexible drive shaft to the locking actuator (1) (Ref. AMM TASK 78-31-07-400-801).
   (18) If you removed the clamps, clamp assemblies and hardware on deploy tube, install the clamps, clamp assemblies and hardware back on the deploy tube and torque box (Ref. AMM TASK 78-31-07-400-801).
   (19) Attach the MDU to the locking actuator (1) (Ref. AMM TASK 78-31-05-400-801).
   (20) Connect the TRAS monitoring harness to the locking actuator (1).
CAUTION: MAKE SURE THAT THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR IS CLEAN BEFORE YOU CONNECT IT. DIRTY ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS CAN CAUSE THRUST REVERSER PROBLEMS.
CAUTION: USE PLIERS THAT HAVE TEFLON JAWS TO TIGHTEN THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS. DO NOT USE PLIERS THAT HAVE METAL JAWS. METAL JAWS CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS.
