REASON (1) HISTORY An operator has reported instances of damage to the rod end of the MLG retraction actuator, found during the aircraft maintenance procedures. Until August 2009, 6 (six) MLG retract actuators from 4 (four) aircraft were found damaged on their rod ends. Further analysis revealed that the MLG retraction actuator eye and bearing may be severely damaged. In a bench test, a damaged retraction actuator removed from the fleet performed 17,000 FC with no additional damage to the MLG retraction actuator rod. Although it is not likely to happen, the analysis revealed that the actuator rod may break, causing a gear extension with no hydraulic damping. In this condition, the lower side stay bolt, which is the mechanical load fuse in the locking assembly, may be damaged causing the unlocking of the MLG. (2) OBJECTIVE To present instructions for doing a visual inspection on the LH and RH MLG retraction actuator rod-end, bolt and anti-rotation pin and, if necessary, replace the MLG retraction actuator, bolt and/or anti-rotation pin. (3) EXPECTED BENEFITS The purpose of this bulletin is to prevent the failure of the retraction actuator. (4) REVISION HISTORY None. D. DESCRIPTION This Bulletin is divided into 3 PARTS, as follows: PART I LH and RH MLG Retraction Actuator Inspection Applicable to: Applicable to 1.A. SB EFFECTIVITY The procedure presented in this PART consists of inspecting the LH and RH MLG retraction actuator rod-end, bolt, cotter pin and anti-rotation pin for the evidence of damage, rod-end stiffness and positioning, and:

All rights reserved.– If a discrepancy is found in the cotter pin, reinstall the washer, nut and cotter pin. – If a discrepancy is found at the other parts during this inspection, replace the affected parts according to PART II or PART III, as applicable. – If there is no discrepancy in the MLG retraction actuator, bolt, cotter pin and anti-rotation pin no action is required. To do this, it is necessary to gain access to the LH and RH MLG area. PART II LH MLG Retraction Actuator Replacement Applicable to: Applicable to 1.A. SB EFFECTIVITY The procedure presented in this PART consists of: – Replacing the LH MLG retraction actuator PN 190-70980-403 with a new one bearing the same part number. For the replacement with PN 190-70980-405 simultaneous accomplishment of SB190LIN-32-0015 - REPLACEMENT OF MLG RETRACTION ACTUATOR is required. – Replacing the anti-rotation pin with a new one bearing the same PN, if necessary, – If a discrepancy is found in the MLG retraction actuator attachment bolt during the accomplishment of PART I, its replacement with a new one bearing the same PN is necessary. To do this, it is necessary to gain access to the LH MLG area. A limited number of units will be placed in a rotable pool for the operator’s use. Coordination of this rotable pool is administered by the Liebherr-Aerospace. Operators should contact Liebherr-Aerospace for scheduling information at the address mentioned in paragraph 2.B.

ACCOMPLISHMENT INSTRUCTIONS NOTE: 1) For the purpose of this Service Bulletin, a General Visual Inspection (GVI) is: “A visual examination of an interior or exterior area, installation or assembly to detect obvious damage, failure or irregularity. This level of inspection is made from within touching distance, unless otherwise specified. A mirror may be necessary to enhance visual access to all exposed surfaces in the inspection area. This level of inspection is made under normally available lighting conditions such as daylight, hangar lighting, flashlight or drop-light and may require removal or opening of access panels or doors. Stands, ladders or platforms may be required to gain proximity to the area being checked.” 2) Obey all of the WARNINGS and CAUTIONS included in the referenced manuals and procedures. 3) The Manuals and other documents are referred to by acronyms or using a simplified form.
