INSPECT
Do not drive rig pin in rigging hole.
Damage to component will result.

will cause accumulation of dust at
rigging hole.
Do not move cockpit controls with
rig pin installed. Damage to pin and
component will result.
Do not stand, kick, or induce lateral
loads to the thrust idler. A cracked
arm will cause in-flight failure resulting
in disconnecting the thrust cockpit
driver actuator (CCDA) and the
droop eliminator potentiometers
(Without 74 ) or thrust control position
transducer (With 74 ).
