Initials (Refer To Figures As Indicated) Insp. # Fail Initials Pass Disc # Pass Fail Prepare the aircraft for this task in accordance with the prerequisites above. Read all considerations, warnings, and notes above and ensure that each item is addressed as applicable. NOTE: Turnbuckles and terminals are available in different lengths. If a cable has stretched to the point that proper cable tension cannot be obtained, select a turnbuckle or terminal of shorter length. Verify that cable is, in fact, stretched and not off a pulley before changing end fittings. (1) Tension cables between control column and aileron bellcrank as follows: (1a) Engage gust lock. (1b) Move aileron bellcrank (by hand) into locked position. (1c) Install control wheel alignment tool. (1e) Remove clamp on copilot side of control wheel alignment tool. (1f) Disengage gust lock. (2) To ensure the pilot and copilot control wheels are coordinated, adjust the cable section between the control yokes as follows: (2a) Install control wheel alignment tool (clamp installed on and clamp to pilot’s wheel, wheel removed). One side of control wheel will come in contact with copilot’s copilot’s the tool. Measure gap between opposite side of control wheel and control wheel alignment tool. (2b) Adjust turnbuckle to align control wheel to ensure gap between control copilot’s wheel and alignment tool does not exceed 0.030 inch (0.762 mm).
