operation. Movement of the flaps is by a torque tube located below the cockpit floor and rotated by an
electric motor-driven jackscrew. Push rods attached to the arms of the torque tube move the flaps to the
de
sired position. The flaps have been completely sealed against chemical spray.

and locations for installation reference.
D. Remove one attach bolt at the motor end, loosen the other bolt slightly and remove the four bolts
connecting the jackscrew to the flap torque tube.

new hardware. NOTE: Rigging must be checked after installation of new jackscrew or pushrods.
Refer to flap rigging.
F. Reconnect the electrical wires and test flap motor for proper operation.
G. Connect pushrods and after flaps are rigged properly ensure that all bolts are tight and wires are tied
off.
