 Step 9
Once all the cables have been attached, go back and
tighten the bolts holding the tabs at the stabilizer. Do
not crush the wood of the stabilizer by over-tightening
the screws.
 Step 10
Adjust the flying wires so there is equal and light tension
on each wire. Make sure that the stabilizer and
fin have not been twisted during the tensioning of the
flying wires.
 Step 11
To keep the rudder and elevators from moving, and to aid
in the installation of the linkages, use low-tack painters
tape to tape the rudder to the fin, and the elevators to the
stabilizers, at this time.
 Step 7
Connect the rigging to the tabs on the stabilizer.
 Step 8
Attach the remaining cables to the fin using two
4-40 x 1/2-inch socket head bolts and two 4-40 lock
nuts. Connect the clevises to the tabs on the stabilizer
at this time.
