1. Locate the flat area on the nose gear. This area
will be where the screw will be positioned in the
following step.
2. You will need to back out the screw in the nose
wheel steering arm before sliding in the nose
gear wire. Slide the nose gear into the nose gear
bracket. Use a #1 Phillips screwdriver to tighten
the screw that secures the nose gear. Make sure the
screw is tightened against the flat area as indicated
in Step 1.
You may need to push the cowling out of
the way slightly to access the screw. The
cowl material is flexible enough to bend a
little during this step without damage.
3. Locate the main gear and press it into the slot in
the fuselage that is behind the battery compartment
on the bottom of the fuselage. You may need to flex
the landing gear wire inwards towards itself to get
it to fully seat inside the slot.
