MAINTENANCE MANUAL
GENERAL.
\
The flight control systems are operated by movement of dual pilot controls. A series of push-pull mechan-
ical linkages connect the pilot controls.to the control surfaces. Electrically actuated trim tabs are mounted on the
elevators and rudder. Trim tab position is electrically displayed on the instrument panel. A fixed position trim tab
is mounted on the right aileron. Coordination of rudder and aileron movement is provided by an interconnect
pushrod and spring assembly at fuselage station 146.80. . j
A ventral rudder has been attached to the rudder torque tube if Kit 764 969v has been installed.
On Model 60rP, 602P and 700P, pressure sealing boots are fitted to the flight control pushrods and bulk-
head, fuselage station 176.88. The cabin pressurization force acting on the pressure sealing boots is balanced
(compensated for) by two separate boots, pushrods, and bellcrank assemblies linked to the aileron and elevator
pushrods fonward of bulkhead fuselage station 176.88. These assemblies transmit equal and opposite pressuriza-
tion force on the control systems pushrods. ' .•«
The flaps are actuated by separate hydraulic cylinders which are connected to two flow control valves per
cylinder. The rate of hydraulic fluid flow through the valves provides synchronized movement of the flaps during
extension and retraction. The flap control lever is linked by cable to a flap control valve under the cabin floor,
which directs main hydraulic system fluid to the flow control valves.
All airframe models can be fitted with auto-pilot systems. These systems are linked to the aileron and ele-
vator pushrods under the fonward floor panel in the baggage compartment.

TROUBLESHOOTING.

Troubles which are peculiar to Flight Controls are listed in Chart 2701.
Abnormal operation of a flight control system, or ran out of rig condition is usually caused by damage,
excessive wear, or incorrect maintenance on affected system components.
The "clocked" positions referenced, for certain bellcranks and idler arms, in their "installation" procedures,
are of primary importance when troubleshooting a control problem, or when rigging a control system.

RIGGING AND ADJUSTMENT OF AILERON CONTROLS. (Refer to Figure 27-2.) . .v j

Thte ailerons' neutral position and ttieir up and down travel limits are ctiecked witti a rigging template. See
Chapter 91 for rigging tool fabrication. Both aileron control surfaces are designed to droop down when the con-
trols are in neutral position. When control-system linkage has been installed in accordance with installation proce-
dures, both ailerons can be rigged by adjusting the pushrods connected to the control surfaces, and adjusting the
travel stops under cabin floor, fuselage station 146.80. Correct aileron droop position must be established prior to
checking/rigging control surfaces travel limits.
- 1. ' Checking/adjusting aileron neutral (droop) position.
A. Secure control wheels in center (neutral) position.
B. Place rigging template on top of left wing, wing station 156.00, over rivet row from wing
' . leading edge to aileron center hinge poinL
C. • Note and record droop angle degrees on template opposite aileron trailing edge. For rig-
ging purposes, aileron droop angle is -2° ± 1° down from 0°. Adjust pushrod (12) as
required.
D. Repeat Step C for right aileron.
2. Checking/adjusting aileron travel limits.
A. Accomplish steps under paragraph 1 above. - . . . v ..
B. Release control wheels and roll left aileron full down. For rigging purposes, down travel is
15° ± 1° down from droop setting. Adjust travel stop under cabin floor on aft side of idler
arm, fuselage station 146.80.
C. Roll right aileron full down. For rigging purposes, down travel is 15° ± 1 ° from droop set-
ting. Adjust travel stop under cabin floor on front side of idler arm fuselage station
146.80.
D: Check each control surface for freedom of movement as follows. Roll control surface full
down with control wheels. Apply upward hand force on aileron trailing edge and push
aileron to neutral position. Controls should move smoothly without binding or roughness.
E. Aileron up travel is controlled by the geometry of linkage bellcranks, provided their neu-
tral clocked positions are in accordance with installation procedures. For rigging check
purposes, aileron up travel is 25° ± 1 ° up from neutral droop position.

—NOTE—
If aileron up travel is not within limits, all system bellcranks must be
checked for their neutral (clocked) positions per tiellcrank installation.

3. Checking/adjusting aileron trim tab.


A. Rigging adjustments are made on right aileron "fixed position" trim tab by bending tab.
Tab adjustment will provide minor changes to control surface neutral position in flight.

—NOTE—
Control wheels may have to tie re-rigged, for inflight center position, after
adjusting aileron trim tab.

RIGGING AND ADJUSTMENT OF RUDDER CONTROLS. (Refer to Figure 27-9.)

1. Torque tube (18) free play check.


The rudder is connected to a torque tube assembly, incorporating one universal joint. The free
play across the universal joint should be checked with a dial indicator, prior to rudder
rigging/adjustment.
A. Install airplane tail stand per Chapter 7.
B. Gain access to torque tube connection with pushrod (17) by removing aft curtain in bag-
gage compartment.
C. Disconnect pushrod (13) from arm on torque tube. Install a "C"-clamp and block fixture
. device on torque tube arm to prevent tube from rotating.
D. Set up a dial indicator measuring arrangement on rudder trailing edge. Applying approxi-
mately five lbs. of force at trailing edge, measure free play indication. If measurement
exceeds 0.050 inch, replace the torque tube, per 'Torque Tube Assembly (18)
Removal/Installation", this Chapter. Refer to Figure 27-15, for free-play check.
E. Remove holding fixture from torque tube, and connect pushrod (17) to torque tube.
2. Rudder travel check/adjustment (Figure 27-9).
The mdder rigging check is made with a rigging template placed on the right hand side of the
vertical stabilizer and extending around rudder trailing edge. The template may be fabricated
from the dimensions given in Chapter 91.

—NOTE—
Adjustment to change the fore and aft static neutral position of the rudder
pedals is not recommended. Pedal alignment, static neutral position, and
freedom of pedal movement is determined by the pushrods nominal lengths
which are set prior to installation.

B. Place and hold rigging template bn right hand side of vertical fin, positioning it perpendic-
ular to the rudder hinge line. Refer to Figure 27-9 for location.
C. Measure rudder neutral position on template scale opposite trailing edge. For rigging pur
poses, rudder neutral (flush) position with stabilizer is 0°. Perform Step D, if adjustment
is required.
D. With airplane tail stand in place, remove aft curtain from baggage compartment, and
adjust length of pushrod (17) to set rudder angle 0°.
E. Release rudder controls, and by pushing pedal controls full forward against right and left
stops, measure oidder travel on template scale opposite trailing edge. For rigging purpos-
es, the rudder travel should be 30° ± 1° left and right from 0°, unless the tail modification
kit (Kit No. 764 969v) has been installed. If this kit has heen installed, the rudder travel
should be 30° ± 1 ° left and 35° -^1 °, -0° right.
F. Adjust mdder travel stops (20). Two travel stops are located on fonward side of bellcrank (9),
fuselage station 97.00. Gain access to bellcrank by removing first access cover aft of
console from aisle floor.

—NOTE—
Due to tfie geometry of rudder linkage system, tfie thread exposure on stop
bolts will not be the same when adjusting rudder travel stop limits. See
"Note" in figure 27-12.

A flap selector lever on instrument panel is linked by cable to a hydraulic control valve under cabin floor.
Positioning the control lever to extend or retract the flaps, allows main hydraulic system pressure to activate the
flaps' hydraulic system. Flap movement can be stopped at any mid position by placing selector lever in "neutral".
The flaps are operated by separate hydraulic actuating cylinders connected directly to each flap. The flaps' rate
of movement during extension is synchronized by two flow control valves which are installed/as a "matched set".
A matched set consists of two valves having the same rate of flow, within .008 gallons per minute (GPM) of each
other. The flow rate for each flow control valve is noted on the valve's data plate. An additional matched set of
flow control valves provide synchronization of flaps movement during retraction.

' , H. . Tum screws (2) and (7) as required to'bring gauge pressure arm (8) to bear on surface of
vane (9) within .032 inches of tip.
I. Apply pressure to aft surface, of vane (9) for negative (-) tipgrams and forward surface for
positive (+) tipgrams. ..."
J. " Turn screw (7) to adjust force (tipgrams) as required.. .
3.... Turn on the airplane DC power. Ensure that tfie stall warning circuit breaker is pushed in.

—CAUTION—
Ensure that the stall warning heat switch is not activated.

4. Place airplane flaps in up position. , • • .


5. Apply a forward force of -11 tipgrams slowly to the tip of the lift transducer vane. The stall warn-
ing should actuate when the -3 gauge reads -11 ± 1 tipgrams.
6. Repeat steps 5 and 6 for 20 degree and 45 degree flaps position. Use the -3 gauge (2.0 to 15.0
tipgram range) to check that the stall waming actuates at -6.5 ±1 tipgram for 20 degrees of flaps.
Use the -1 gauge (0.3 to 3.0 tipgram range) to check that the stall warning actuates at -1.5 ± 1 tip
gram for 45 degrees of flaps. •

V ^ —NOTE—
When changing the trip point, always measure the point at which the stall
warning just turns on, not off, to avoid error.

7. If the previous calibrations were not met, the computer will havie to be recalibrated per the follow-
.', ing steps: ~ •; • • '•*
J A. Place flaps at 45°, gain.access to the lift computer adiustments and apply a force of -1.5
tipgrams (on the -1 gauge) to the lift transducer with the 990 Force Applicator.
B. Lift up the access cover on the front of the lift computer and slowly adjust the poten-
tiometer labeled R3 so that the stall warning horn just comes on.

^ —wore— - .„

. Turning R1, R2 and R3 cloclmise will cause the stall warning horn to come . .
'on. Turning them counterclockwise will cause the horn to go off. '

C. . Check the calibration by rerribving the fdrce from the vane to turn off'the horn. A force of
plus 5 tipgrams from where the stall waming actuator will be is required to turn off the
horn". Apply a minus force slovyly until the stall warning horn actuates. The gauge should
read -1.5 tipgrams. " J "

-—NOTE— ' :

Tap the gauge lightly while making the reading.'

b. Repeat the procedcire o'f steps A, B and C for 20 degree and 0 degree flap position per
the following steps. . ^ "
E.. Place flaps at 20 degrees and apply a force of -6.5 tipgrams (using the -3 gauge) to the
lift transducer vane.-Adjust the R2 potentiometer slowly so that the stall waming horn just
. comes on. . .
F. Place flaps at 0 degrees and apply a force of -11 tipgrams"(using the -3 gauge) to the lift
transducer vane. Adjust the R1 potentiometer slowly so that the stall warning horn just
comes on. " '^z
