ACCOMPLISHMENT INSTRUCTIONS Compliance with this Service Bulletin requires complying with Steps 2.D. and with either Step 2.A. or 2.B. or 2.C. Refer to Table 1. A. Control Column Pivot Bearing Inspection (1) Remove cockpit furnishings and fl oorboards as required to gain access to Pilot's and Copilot's control column roller bearings and elevator control rod end(s) as indicated in the SA26 Maintenance Manual, Section II. (2) Layout and enlarge Pilot's and Copilot's cutout as shown in Figure 1. Deburr and surface fi nish bare metal with alodine and epoxy polyamide primer. (3) Using a calibrated torque wrench, apply 60.0 inch/pounds (+5.0 / -0.0 in-lbs) torque to the MS21044N4 nut securing the Pilot's and Copilot's control column roller bearings to the 26-21352-001 or -005 doubler assemblies. No movement is allowed. (4) If nut movement occurs, remove and replace components and hardware per Step 2.B. B. Control Column Pivot Bearing Replacement (1) Remove cockpit furnishings and fl oorboards as required to gain access to Pilot's and Copilot's control column roller bearings and elevator control rod end(s) as indicated in the SA26 Maintenance Manual, Section II. (2) Layout and enlarge Pilots and Copilots cutout as shown in FIGURE 1. Deburr and surface fi nish bare metal with alodine and epoxy polyamide primer. (3) Remove the CF-5/8-S bearings, MS21044N4 nuts and associated washers and the 26-21352-001 or -005 doubler assemblies and associated hardware indicated in Figure 1.

# SERVICE BULLETIN SA26 SERIES

(4) Destroy or permanently mark the removed CF-5/8-S bearings to ensure no future use of the bearings. (5) Install new CF-5/8-S bearings (or acceptable alternates listed in Step 3) with MS21042L4 nuts and associated washers per Figure 1 using a calibrated torque wrench to apply 70.0 in-lbs (+5.0 / -0.0 in-lbs) torque to the nut and bearing. Install 26-21352-007 doubler assemblies or 26-21352-007P doublers per Figure 1.
NOTE : The 26-21352-001 doubler assembly is attached to the airplane structure using MS21042L3 nuts, AN3-5A bolts, and AN960-10L washers. The 26-21352-005 doubler assemblies incorporate MS21073L3 nutplates in place of the MS21042L3 nuts. P/N 26-21352-007P doubler is available with only the roller bearing stud hole drilled and may be used to replace either the -001 or -005 doubler assemblies, but requires match drilling of the 26-21352-007P doubler to the airframe or removed doubler for the AN3-5A attach bolt hole locations (4 places). MS21073L3 nutplates may be installed or MS21042L3 nuts and AN960-10L washers may be used. (6) Proceed to Step 2.D. C. Control Column Pivot Alternate Design This step offers an alternate method of compliance to Steps 2.A. and 2.B. (1) Comply with the latest FAA approved revision of Service Bulletin 26-27-30-047. (2) Proceed to Step 2.D.
NOTE : Compliance with Step 2.C. removes the pivot bearing 10,000 hour replacement requirement outlined in Table 1 for Steps 2.A. and 2.B. D. Elevator Control Rod (1) Remove the elevator control rod attached to the elevator walking beam and control column as shown in Figure 2 and as described in the SA26 MM.
CAUTION : PAY PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO SA26 MAINTENANCE MANUAL WITH REGARDS TO BLOCKING WHEN DISCONNECTING/WORKING WITH ELEVATOR CONTROL CABLES DUE TO SPRING TENSION ON CABLES. (2) Inspect rod end bearing retainer/dust covers for evidence of creasing or other damage as shown in Figure 2. If any creasing or other damage is found , remove and replace rod end(s). (3) Check elevator control rod ends for excessive wear. Grasp the control rod fi rmly in one hand and with the other hand attempt to move the inner ring radially backIssued: December 11, 1996 Revised: December 5, 2014 

# SERVICE BULLETIN SA26 SERIES

26-27-30-046 R2 Page 8 of 12 and forth in the bearing face. Any perceptible radial play between the inner ring and the race indicates excessive wear and the bearing shall be replaced. (4) If the elevator control rod is disassembled to replace one or both of the rod end bearings, the control rod must be reassembled with: (a) length adjusted to meetelevator control system rigging and travel requirements of SA26 MM, (b) Both witness holes in control rod covered by installed bearings, (c) each bearing installed 90° (+/- 3°) to each other and, (d) control rod jam nuts with 40 in-lbs (+/- 5 in-lbs) torque.
CAUTION : DO NOT ATTEMPT TO TIGHTEN THE CONTROL ROD ASSEMBLY JAM NUTS WHILE CONTROL ROD IS INSTALLED SINCE THIS WILL CAUSE CREASING OF ROD END BEARING RETAINER/DUST COVER. NOTE: To prevent creasing, the rod end retainer/dust covers, the control rod length should be adjusted with the jam nuts tightened fi nger tight and the elevator control system travel checked in accordance with SA26 MM, Section III. Remove the control rod assembly and tighten jam nuts by holding the rod ends with a wrench on the fl at of the bearing housing while torquing the jam nut to 40 in-lbs (+/- 5 in-lbs). Ensure that control rod criteria of Step 2.D.(4) is met. (5) Reinstall elevator control rod. Use hardware and hardware arrangement as shown in FIGURE 2. Replace bolt (P/N NAS6604D31 or previously replaced NAS6604D34 (with more than 10,000 hours TIS) with a new bolt (P/N NAS6604D34) and install a new washer (P/N AN970-4).
NOTE: Use AN960-416 and/or AN960-416L washer(s), shown on either side of rod end bearings, as required for clamp up. Ensure that the AN310-4 nut does not ride on the shank of the NAS6604D34 bolt. (6) Adjust elevator and aileron cable tensions and perform elevator and aileron control system travel/adjustment as described in SA26 MM, Section III. (7) Replace all cockpit furnishings and fl oorboards removed to accomplish this inspection/replacement. E. Complete aircraft records according to 14 CFR 43.9. F.
