Nose Gear Installation - Seagull Models SEA12 Assembly Manual

3) The landing gear wire is held in place
using two nylon landing gear straps and four
3mm x 12mm wood screws.
The straps should be located equal dis-
tance from the inside and outside ends
of the wire.
4) Using the two landing gear straps as a
guide, mark the locations of the four 3mm x
12mm mounting screws onto the wing sur-
face.
5) Remove the two straps and the gear
wire. Drill four 3/32" pilot holes into the wing
for the wood screws.
Be careful do not to drill through the
top of the wing!
6) Reinstall the gear wire and install the
straps using the four 3mm x 12mm wood
screws. Tighten the screws completely to se-
cure the gear wire in place.
7) Slide one wheel collar with 3mm x
6mm set screw onto each axle. Push the
wheel collars on as far as they will go and
tighten the set screws.
Be careful not to overtighten the set
screws. Overtightening may cause the
threads to strip.
8) Slide one 60mm diameter wheel onto
each axle and push them up against the wheel
collars. Slide the remaining wheel collars with
3mm x 6mm set screws onto the axles. Push
them up against the wheels and tighten the
set screws. The wheels should spin free and
not bind in any way. If they do bind, loosen the
set screws in the outer wheel collars and move
the collars out a small amount. Retighten the
set screws.
