Stage 15: Port mainwheel hydraulics..
Stage 15 Contains: Port landing gear wall, Port mainwheel hydraulics mount, Port mainwheel hydraulics shaft, Pivot, Cylinder and 2x HM Screws.
Insert the pins on the port mainwheel hydraulics mount into the holes in the hydraulics cylinder, pushing both parts together. These go in at a slight angle, so make sure you get them aligned correctly.
With the cylinder at the bottom relative to the two pieces just put together, fit the pivot into the end of the cylinder with the lug uppermost. You might find it easier here to pre-thread the screw into the hole before assembling to ease the passage of the screw through the pivot.
Carefully insert the hydraulics shaft into the open end of the cylinder. Because it is a tight fit, thread something like a cocktail stick through the eyelet and use a screwing motion to ease it into place. Test that the shaft can move in and out of the cylinder.
This completes Stage 15, and Pack 3. Store any unused or left-over parts in a stage-labelled bag for future use.
