joiner wire and hinges and check the align-
ment. Both should be level. If not bend the
joiner wire till they match.

wire fits. Reinstall the elevators.

Deflect the elevator to it full travel in one

direction and make sure to hold the elevator

elevator in the other direction and apply a
drop of glue to each hinge.
