4.
Visually inspect the entireness of the thread of the screw pn 044;
5.
Visually inspect the entireness of the base of the inner thread of the coupling gear pn 045.
6.
If there are radial cracks at the base of the gear pn 045 or damages to the sliding screw of the gear pn
044, contact Magni Gyro or the Area retailer for the replacement of the part(s).
7.
If there are no visible damages, put a little of grease on the gears and re‐install the Bendix unit GR03.
3.6.3
INSTALLATION OF BENDIX GEAR
(See Fig. 3.6/1 ‐ 3‐6/3)
1.
Insert the complete Bendix gear in the tube of the fork pn 046. Fit the fastening seats together with the
tube's threaded holes;
2.
When placing the cup pn 039, take care to correctly align the holes as to the tube of the fork pn 046 with
the sheath (pn 119) fastening holes, which must be in line with the longitudinal axis of the gyroplane;
3.
Tighten the three bolts M5x12 that fix the cup pn 039;
4.
Insert the sheath pn 119 in the cup;
5.
Use an Allen wrench M6 (1) to turn the Bendix unit GR03 clockwise, thus facilitating the insertion of the
flexible shaft pn 118;
6.
Once the insertion is done, place the sheath pn 119 against the cup pn 039 and fasten it by tightening the
bolts M6x16.
WARNING:
If there are no damages to the Bendix coupling gear unit, cleaning it may solve some of the operation
problems. The grease may reduce the sliding of the gear on the shaft because of its aging and of its
emulsifying with water and thus hinder the coupling of the pre‐rotation. This kind of problem can be
avoided by cleaning the parts on a periodical base and especially after permanence in very humid
situations or rain.
