OVERHAUL MANUAL
1. Description
The main gear is an inward retracting telescopic cantilever unit. The port and starboard main gear is
identical with the exception of being ’handed’ for installation purposes and form the principal load
supporting members of their respective single wheels.
The general construction of the main gear is illustrated in Fig.1,2,2A,3 and 4.
The cylinder of each main gear contains a sliding tube in its bore and at the upper end is web formed and
transverse bored. Two radially drilled tubular spigots are located in the transverse bore and are provided for
attachment purposes. The retraction pin is supported by a bushed integral lug at the upper end of the
cylinder and is secured in position by a dowel pin and locked nut. Further integral lugs on the cylinder, some
of which are bushed, accept the uplock pin, the toggle pin supporting the upper toggle and where required,
the equipment used for ground towing the aircraft. A junction block with internally---threaded fluid
connections is located on an integral platform on the front face of the cylinder and is secured in position by
bolts and slug nuts.
A cap, seated within the upper end of the cylinder, is retained in position by a pressure sealed inflation
adaptor and extended bleed screw.
For Type B00A702850A and B00A702851A: The sliding tube moves axially within the bore of the cylinder
supported at the upper end by a piston sleeve and upper bearing assembly and at the lower end by a
bottom bearing assembly turned into the open end of the cylinder. Glands, interposed between spacers,
are located within a seal housing which abuts the counterbore of the cylinder.
For Types B00A702925A, B00A702926A, B01A702925A and B01A702926A: The sliding tube moves axially
within the bore of the cylinder supported at the upper end by a piston sleeve and an upper spherical bush
and at the lower end by a bottom spherical bearing. The bottom spherical bearing is located in the spherical
bearing housing together with the bottom bearing retaining seal, scraper ring and associated parts. The
spherical bearing housing is retained in the cylinder by the bottom bearing retaining nut.
A piston installed into the end of the sliding tube and locked by set screws houses a spring loaded flap valve
and a separator piston moves axially within the bore of the sliding tube to isolate hydraulic fluid and nitrogen
gas during operation.
A stop ring, movement of which is limited by a stop nut installed on the sliding tube, contacts the inner end
face of the seal housing/spherical bearing housing.
The stop nut is locked in position on the sliding tube by means of a set screw. The axle is located to the base
of the sliding tube by a pin and secured in position by a dowel tie rod and dowels. A lug on the axle accepts a
toggle pin which supports the lower toggle. A jacking pad is installed in the integral bracket of the axle to
secure the axle bracket plug in position. Adaptors which provide the required nitrogen and fluid
connections of the main gear are installed in the axle bracket plug.

2. Operation
Selection of undercarriage UP results in hydraulic release of the internal mechanical lock incorporated in the
appropriate radius rod assembly, retraction of the radius rod inner cylinder, inward retraction of the main
gear within the airframe structure, and automatic engagement of the relevant spring-loaded uplock
mechanism. Selection of undercarriage DOWN results in hydraulic release of the uplock mechanism,
extension of the radius rod inner cylinder, subsequent lowering of the main gear, and re-engagement of the
internal mechanical lock embodied in the radius rod assembly.
Compression of the sliding tube under the influence of external loads, initially forces fluid pressure through
the central orifice of the spring-loaded flap valve, against the full area face of the separator piston. Subject to
the compressive load applied, and subsequent opening of the spring-loaded flap valve, the increased fluid
pressure displaced forces the separator piston against the nitrogen pressure existent in the lower section of
the sliding tube.
Reduction of the external compressive load permits reversed axial movement of the separator piston,
closing of the flap valve, and the passage of fluid pressure at a restricted rate through the central orifice of
the closed flap valve, thus eliminating the possibility of any immediate recoil action, which may occur during
landing of the aircraft, or dynamic braking conditions.

(a) To detect cracks 0.10 inch (2,54 mm) or greater in length originating in the yoke pintle bore.
Refer to Figure 509.
(2) Clean the end faces and pintle bores that are to be inspected. Refer to Figure 509.
(3) The following equipment is required to perform this inspection. Any comparable eddy current
equipment may be used provided that it satisfies the requirement of this instruction and is
capable of resolving the 0.020 inch (0,5 mm) slot at the required level of sensitivity.
(4) Calibrate the equipment using the following settings and procedure.
(a) Place the probe on the surface of the calibration standard away from the slots and balance
the instrument.
(c) Slide the probe over the 0.020 inch (0,5 mm) slot in the calibration standard and adjust the
settings to obtain a display similar to Figure 512. Ensure that the 0.020 inch (0,5 mm) slot
produces a vertical displacement of 60% full screen height (FSH).
NOTE: Where the surface to be inspected is painted the lift--off, zero and sensitivity adjustments
should be carried out with a non--conducting shim of similar thickness to the paint, placed
between the probe and the calibration block.
(5) Use the following procedure and inspect the cylinder.
(a) Place the probe on the surface to be inspected and re--set the lift off as required.
(b) Balance the equipment, refer to Figure 512.
(c) Scan the end faces and internal walls as detailed in Figures 510 and 511 and observe all

(6) Interpretation of results.
(a) Cracks and other discreet surface damage can usually be identified by a rapid vertical spot
displacement which once the crack or damage has been crossed returns to the balanced
position.
(b) Smooth gradual spot movement is a common occurence and can happen for many
reasons, such as paint thickness variations (lift--off), edge effect and conductivity
changes.
(7) Acceptance criteria.
(a) Any indication with a rapid vertical displacement having an amplitude of 20% FSH or
greater that cannot be attributed to probe handling or component geometry shall be
considered as a crack.
(8) Examination standard.
NOTE: The word discontinuity is a generic term for faults such as cracks, corrosion and
mechanical damage.

each detailed part contained in the illustration. An item number prefixed by a dash (--), indicates that the
item is not illustrated.

shown as a dash. Blank spaces between part numbers are closed up.
D. The forth column, Nomenclature, lists the description of the component and its attaching parts. The
keyword always preceeds the full description of the component or item. If items are obtainable from
another source, then a vendor code is given in parenthesis, together with the original manufacturer’s part
number.

F. The fifth column, EFF CODE, is left blank in all cases where items apply to all assemblies.
