3. File flat spots on the wheel axle where the wheel
collar set screws will tighten down. A rotary tool with a flat
grinding disc works well for this.
❏ ❏
4. Reinstall the wheel collars and main wheel. Apply a
small amount of thread locking compound to the wheel collar
set screws and tighten them in place. Trim off the excess
axle, leaving 1/8" [3.2 mm] extending past the wheel collar. A
rotary tool and cut off disc or flat file works best for this.

5. Slide the fiberglass wheel pant over the main wheel
and align the holes in the main gear with the holes in the wheel
pant. Using two 4-40 x 1/2" [13 mm] SHCS, #4 lock washers
and #4 washers, attach the wheel pant to the gear leg. Add a
drop of Threadlocker to each 4-40 SHCS. Note the direction of
the gear leg in relation to the pant in the photo.
❏
6. Mount the left and right landing gear assemblies to the
fuselage using six 6-32 x 1-1/4" [32 mm] SHCS, six #6
washers, and six #6 lock washers as shown.
❏
7. Locate the tailwheel assembly, nylon tail gear
bearing, nylon rudder post, tail gear support, and large
wheel collar. If it has not already been done for you, slide
the 1" [25 mm] tailwheel and small wheel collar onto the tail
wheel wire as shown. Grind a flat spot on the wire as you did
with the main landing gear axles where the set screw
tightens down.
