 F. Measure the Sensor Gap (Jack Procedure)
 NOTE: This is the preferred method for measuring the sensor gap.
____ S 492-052
 (1)  
Make sure the downlocks are installed on the nose and main landing gear (AMM 32-00-20/201).

 S 492-053

 (2)  
Make sure the chocks are below the wheels.

 S 862-040

 (3)  
Lift the nose of the airplane until the wheels are off the ground (AMM 07-11-02/201).

 S 862-041

 (4)  
Make sure the steering for the nose landing gear is in the center position.

 S 222-042

 (5)  
Measure the clearance between the sensor and the sensor target (refer to Fig. 201).

 S 862-043

 (6)  
If the distance is not the same, do the task to adjust the sensor gap.

 G.
Measure the Sensor Gap (Alternate Procedure)

 NOTE: Use this method when you cannot use a jack on the nose gear
____ and both the primary and alternate gaps are questionable. You should remeasure the sensor gaps when the airplane can be lifted on jacks.
 S 862-058
 (1)  
Make sure the steering for the nose landing gear is in the center position.

 S 032-059

 (2)  
Disconnect the nose gear upper torsion link from the lower torsion link at the apex bolt (AMM 32-21-09/401).

 NOTE: Do the steps in the removal task which removes the apex bolt
____ that connects the upper and lower torsion links.

 (3)  Attach the inclinometer to the nose gear upper torsion link
 (Fig. 202).

 NOTE: Attach the inclinometer to the upper outer section next
____
 to the pivot pin.

 S 982-061
 (4) Adjust the nose gear upper torsion link so the inclinometer shows
 58.5 degrees from vertical.
 NOTE: Use the torsion link shim to hold the weight of the
____
 torsion link. (Fig. 202)

 S 222-062
 (5)  
Measure the clearance between the sensor and sensor target.

 S 832-063

 (6)  
If the sensor gap is not within tolerance (Fig. 201) do the task to adjust the sensor gap.

 S 092-064

 (7)  
Remove the torsion link shim.

 S 432-065

 (8)  
Connect the upper and lower torsion links (AMM 32-21-09/401).

 NOTE: Do the steps in the installation task which installs the apex
____ bolt to connect the upper and lower torsion links.
 H. Measure the Sensor Gap (Alternate Procedure)
 NOTE: Use this method when you cannot use a jack on the nose gear.
____ This method can be used when only one sensor has indication of being out of tolerance.
 S 862-066
 (1)  
Make sure the steering for the nose landing gear is in the center position.

 (2)  
Attach a tag to the sensor which may need adjustment.

 S 932-067
