Section 12: Assembling & Mounting
the Wheel Pants
Step 4. Slide the wheel pant assembly onto the left landing gear
strut until the strut is seated firmly against the slot in the wheel
pant. Secure the wheel and wheel pant to the strut using a 5/32''
wheel collar. The wheel collar should be pressed against the
wheel pant so that it remains seated in the landing gear strut.
Apply Blue Locktite 242 to the wheel collar screw and securely
tighten. It may be necessary to gently "squeeze" the wheel pant
when tightening the wheel collar screw.
Note: The wheel must rotate smoothly.
Step 5. Repeat this procedure for the right side of the landing
gear and for the nose gear.
