3.1 Lateral adjustment of the sliding door (Fig. 1 to 5) R 3.1.1 Front section (Fig. 1) To move the front section of the door inward or outward : - Add or remove laminations on the peel shims (6) at the end of R the lower arm of the door (DETAIL A). - Adjust the position in the two elongated holes (4) in the crook (3) R of the upper arm of the door (5) (DETAIL B). R The flushness tolerance is + 3 mm (.12 in). R 3.1.2 Rear section (Fig. 4, DETAIL G) R - Position the door with its rear section flush. - Adjust so that the roller support pin (25) and the roller (12) engage R as far inside the recess (24) as possible : R . No contact is acceptable between the end of the roller support pin (25) and the bottom of the recess (24). R . No interference between the roller support and the end of the middle rail (26). R - Maintain a clearance "J6" of 4 mm (.16 in) between the R middle rail (26) and the cover (27) of the bracket (13). R - Open the sliding door and move it fully aft to check for interference between the door and the structure over the complete travel while maintaining the previous adjustment. - Drill the roller support pin to match the bracket. 3.2 Adjustment of the sliding door in height (Fig. 1 and 2) To move the door up or down, or to orientate it, adjust the rear middle center fitting and the front lower slider : - Adjust the position in the three elongated holes (7) (Fig. 1) in R the ball-ended pin support plate on the lower arm of the door (8) R (DETAIL A). - Adjust the position in the four elongated holes (16) (Figure 2) R in middle bracket support (15) (DETAIL C). R
SAFETY CRITERIA : CLEARANCE "J1" BETWEEN THE UPPER ROLLER (10) AND THE BOTTOM OF THE R UPPER RAIL (1) MUST NOT EXCEED 2 mm (.08 in) OVER THE COMPLETE DOOR R OPENING TRAVEL. Criteria : Clearance "J2" between the ceiling panel (2) and the sliding door (11) R must be 6 + 3 mm (.12 in ; .35 in). R Out of parallelism between the sliding door and its frame must not exceed 1.5 mm (.059 in) over length of 1200 mm (47.24 in). NOTE : The frame structure is made up of the reduced door, the ceiling panel (2), and the two rear bulkheads. R

To adjust the clearance between the bottom of upper rail (1) and the R upper roller (10), add or remove laminations on the peel shims (9) on R the crook (3) at the top of the door (5). R 3.3 Longitudinal adjustment of the sliding door (Fig. 2) To center the sliding door between the rear bulkhead and the front reduced door : - Adjust the position in the elongated holes (14) in the bracket (13) R supporting the center rear roller (12) (DETAIL C). R NOTE : In case of interference between the rear roller (12) and R the structure box, the elongated slots (14) can be enlarged R to increase the bracket (13) adjustment range by 2 mm (.08 in), R (as shown on DETAIL D). Criteria : - Clearance "J4" between the reduced door and the sliding door R must be 6 + 3 mm (.02 in ; .35 in). R - Clearance "J3" between the rear 7° and 15° bulkheads and the R sliding door must be 6 + 3 mm (.02 in ; .35 in). R - Clearances "J4" and "J3" must be distributed evenly. R 3.4 Adjustment of the lower and upper locking systems (Fig. 3) NOTE : Two locking guide profiles, one on the 7° bulkhead (21) and R the other on the 15° bulkhead (22) are provided to: R - Close the door, - Seal the door through compression of the seals, - Ensure correct appearance within the flushness tolerance limits. To adjust the catches (19), the door must be closed, with its rear R section maintained flush in the "locked position" (handle in the "closed" position). Adjust the position at the catches (19) : R - In the elongated holes (18) in the catch (19). R - By adding or removing a peel shim (20) between the catch (19) and R the catch support (17). R
MANDATORY SAFETY CRITERIA : - CLEARANCE "J5" BETWEEN THE LOCKING FINGER (23) AND THE BOTTOM OF R THE SLOT IN THE CATCH (19) MUST BE 1 + 0.5 mm (.020 in ; .059 in). R - NO LATERAL PLAY IS ACCEPTABLE BETWEEN THE LOCKING FINGER (23) AND R THE GUIDE PROFILE. - THE LOCKING FINGERS (23) MUST ENGAGE AT LEAST 10 mm (.39 in) R IN THE CATCHES (19). R

R Criteria : . The locking load at the handle must be 15 + 3 daN (26.98 lbf ; 40.46 lbf) (Use the spring balance). R . The flushness tolerance for the rear section is + 3 mm (- .12 in ; + .12 in). R 3.5 Adjustment of the front lower stop (Fig. 4, DETAILS H and K) R The lower stop (30) both limits the longitudinal door overtravel on R door closure, and takes the door weight off the lower slider when the door is closed. It is adjusted : - Longitudinally at its attachment points. - In height by adjusting peel shims (31). R
SAFETY CRITERIA : . Longitudinally : With pilot's door and sliding door closed and locked, position the lower stop (30) with a clearance "J7" of 1 -0/+0.5 mm R (.04 in ; .059 in) from the ball-ended pin support (28). R . In height : With the door in closed position, the stop (30) is adjusted R to prevent any contact between the ball-ended pin (29) and the R lower rail (32) and between the slider (33) and the rail (32). R 3.6 Adjustment of the central striking plate (Fig. 1 and Fig. 5, Detail L) R The sliding door (11) must be closed in order to adjust the central R striking plate (36). R The central striking plate (36) is adjusted by using the elongated R holes (34). R
SAFETY CRITERIA: R 1) Make sure that there is no lateral play between the reduced door (35) R locking pin and the bottom of the notch of the central locking R bush (36). R 2) Make sure that the locking pin of the reduced door (35) is in contact R with the bottom of the central striking plate (36). R

N 4 FINAL STEPS - TESTS When adjustment(s) is (are) completed, check that the door and its closing system operate correctly. - Open and close the door several times. . Outside the aircraft: .. close the sliding door then the reduced door, .. close the reduced door then the sliding door. . Inside the aircraft: .. close the sliding door then the reduced door, .. close the reduced door then the sliding door. - Check for interference between the middle bracket (15) and the top of R the middle rail. If any interference is found, repeat adjustment(s). - Make sure all the safety criteria are met. - Maintain a clearance of 2 +0/-1 mm (.04 in ; .08 in) between the R upper roller and the positive stop with the door in the open position. - Use the spring balance to check that the normal opening loads are less than : . 1 daN (2.25 lbf) for the sliding load, R . 2 daN (4.50 lbf) for the outward opening load. R - Perform a rain test. If water infiltration is found, repeat the adjustments and check the seals for correct condition. - Make sure that the maximum protrusion between the reduced door and the R sliding door is not more than 4 mm (.16 in).
