Required Tools

Phillips screwdriver: #1

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.

Note: 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.
