(iii) The front rudder control can be disconnected
by removing the retaining split pins and dis-
connecting the rod (38) to the rear rudder bar.
(iv) The rudder pedals (35) in both cockpits are adjust-
able for leg length by removing the safety
locking pins.
6. Control Locks
(i) Provision is made in the rear cockpit for a jig
which locks the elevators and ailerons in the
central position.
(ii) The rudder is locked by a V shaped wedge
placed between the fin and the rudder.
7. Elevator and Rudder Trim
(i) Longitudinal trimming is effected by spring
loading the elevators. The required tension is
obtained by a lever and quadrant situated on
the left of each cockpit. These trimming springs (39)
are both adjustable for tension in the rear cock-
pit.
(ii) Directional trimming is assisted by a tension
spring (32) fitted to the rudder bar on the right
hand side of the rear cockpit. This spring
should be adjusted so that no pressure is re-
quired on either rudder pedal when the engine
is operating at cruising R.P.M.
8. Automatic Slots
(i) Auto slots (7) are fitted to the top mainplanes
and are provided with a locking gear. The
operating lever and quadrant are situated on
the right hand side of the rear cockpit below
the instrument panel.
(ii) The operating lever (33) should be near the rear-
most position when the slots are locked. With
the lever in the forward position the slots should
be quite free.
