(f) Attach outboard rail/roller assemblies, stations
373.469 to 487.000 (5 and 6, Figure 3-2) to 10k fitting
assemblies (22) at stations 400.00 and 481.780. Refer to
Figures 2-5 and 2-6).
NOTE
Due to possible irregularities in aircraft,
pallet, and/or cargo system, the main deck
outboard rails may have less than the
required lateral spacing which must be not
less than 88.00 inches. Use spacers in
pairs where relief is necessary in order to
maintain required separation, i.e., one
spacer should be used on either side when
required. Do not use two spacers together
on a side. Use of more than one shim at a
location can jeopardize adequate grip
length of the 10k fitting and outboard rail
attachment bolts and is not permissible.
(g) Measure lateral spacing of outboard rails at
(stations 240.000, 320.000, 400.000, 481.78). If spacing
is less than the required 88.00 inches, a 0.060 inch thick
spacer (P/N 18049C545) is to be inserted between the
10k fitting and the outboard rail to maintain required rail
clearance.
(h) Make splice connections between outboard
rail/roller assemblies, stations 158.500 to 274.000 (1 and
2, Figure 3-2), and rail/roller assemblies, stations 272.531
to 374.000 (3 and 4) on both left and right sides. Use two
hex head bolts (29) and flat washers (43) per splice.
Refer to Figure 2-7.
(i) Make splice connections between outboard
rail/roller assemblies, stations 272.531 to 374.000 (3 and
4) and rail/roller assemblies, stations 373.469 to 487.000
(5 and 6), on both left and right sides. Use two hex head
bolts (29) and flat washers (43) per splice. Refer to
Figure 2-7.
(j) If floor patches cause interference problems with
outboard rail/roller assemblies (1 through 6, Figure 3-2),
modify as follows. Mark the area on the rail/roller
assembly. Remove rail/roller assembly. Machine or
relieve the area as necessary to ensure adequate
clearance of rail/roller assembly and patched area. In
modified area, remove all sharp edges. Have 0.13 inch
(approximate) radii where needed (Figure 2-8). Repaint
as specified in Chapter 3.
(k) Connect twenty-six floor-mounted tiedown rings
in the helicopter to the outboard rail/roller assemblies,
stations 158.500 to 274.000 (1 and 2, Figure 3-2)
outboard rail/roller assemblies, stations 272.531 to
374.000 (3 and 4), and outboard rail/roller assemblies,
stations 373.469 to 487.000 (5 and 6). Use 5k tiedown
fitting assemblies (21). There are thirteen symmetrical
locations per side. Refer to Figure 2-9 for details.
CAUTION
Ensure conical washer (6, Figure 3-16)
has flat down when installing 5k tiedown
fitting assembly (21, Figure 3-2). (See
Figure 2-9 for correct position).
CAUTION
At station 360.000, use tiedown fitting
assembly, station 360.000 (23) and not 5k
tiedown fitting assembly (21). (See
Figure 2-10.) Tiedown washer (1, Figure
3-18) should have the flat down.
(1) Connect two floor-mounted tiedown rings
on the left and right sides at station 360.000 (23, Figure 3-
2) to outboard rail/roller assemblies, stations 272.531 to
374.000 (3 and 4). Use tiedown fitting assemblies, station
360.000 (23) as shown in Figure 2-10.
c. Inboard Guide/Roller Assembly. Install inboard
guide/roller assembly, stations 157.750 to 272.188 (9,
Figure 3-2); inboard guide/roller assembly, stations
272.313 to 377.188 (10); inboard guide/roller assembly,
stations 377.313 to 427.188 (11); and inboard guide/roller
assembly, stations 427.375 to 487.000 (12) as follows:
(1) Position inboard guide/roller assembly,
station 157.750 to 272.188 (9) on B.L. 0.000. Make sure
the forward end is aligned at station 157.750 as shown in
Figure 2-11.
(2) Connect three tiedown assemblies (9
through 16, Figure 3-7), as shown in Figure 2-11, to 5k
tiedown rings on the helicopter floor. Use centerline ring
plug assemblies (24, Figure 3-2).
(3) Position inboard guide/roller assembly,
stations 272.313 to 377.188 (10) on B.L. 0.000 directly
behind inboard guide/roller assembly, stations 157.750 to
272.188 (9).
(4) Connect three tiedown assemblies (45
through 60, Figure 3-8), as shown in Figure 2-11, to 5k
tiedown fitting assemblies (21, Figure 3-2) on the
helicopter floor. Use centerline ring plug assemblies (24).
(5) Position inboard guide/roller assembly,
stations 377.313 to 427.188 (11) on B.L. 0.000 directly
behind inboard guide/roller assembly, stations 272.313 to
377.188 (10).
