1. Full solder Sn 50 Pb should be used for soldering of assembly conductors to the clamps and cable
terminals of finished products for normal temperatures. Use of other solder type must be specified in the
drawing. Soldering with the acid or acid paste is strictly forbidden (except Al-Cr Conductors soldering).
As a soldering flux for soldering of assembly conductors to the clamps of finished products and cable
terminals, the spirit-colophony mixture (40 % spirit, 60 % of colophony) should be used. The soldering
flux must be stored in an air-tight package.
2. Use the spirit for degreasing of insulation-free assembly conductors ends, contact terminals, clamps of
finished products as well as surfaces to be soldered. The spirit must be stored in airtight package.
3. Before soldering the conductors to the claps of plug-socket connections, terminal boxes and to elements
previously preserved, their de-preservation with the spirit, used for cleaning of soldered connections,
should be carried out.
4. For stripping of conductor ends, required for the length of soldering, special strip pliers should be used
or the insulation should be burned. When stripping the conductors, no more wires are allowed to be
damaged as mentioned below:
•
2
10 % up to conductors of cross-section 10 mm
•
2
5 % up to conductors of cross-section 16 mm
5. When soldering all types of applied conductors it is not allowed to melt the insulation. Insulation softening
and distortion is allowed to the distance of 2 mm from the soldering point. Insulation light coloring is
allowed unless this is thermally distorted (must be not sticky and must not show rubber contact).
Insulation distortion up to the distance of 6 mm from the place of soldering is allowed for conductors

having the cross-section 10 mm and more. Damaged section has to be bundled with thread in tree
shape harness.
6. Sockets and plunges designed by drawings of harness are filled with rubber cold vulcanized paste
LUKOPREN N 1522, mixed with catalyst C 21.
When dismantling the connection, the LUKOPREN should be removed from the connection and filled
again into the connection after connection assembly. Internal surface of the hollow of the connection has
to be properly degreased before filling the paste. Fill the connections with LUKOPREN after checking
the soldering and proper interconnection. When filling the connections with LUKOPREN, make sure the
paste does not penetrate into the socket jacks. For this reason the jacks must be protected by plugging
lither piece (plug) or individual jacks. When the connection is filled with LUKOPREN, the LUKOPREN
inside the hollow must not be damaged anyhow. No bubbles on the surface are allowed. The connection

• Label the Alodin agent bottle (preferably PVC with volume max. 20 ml) properly, due to the
fact it is a very strong oxidant with limited efficiency the agent has to be used up as soon as
possible (preferably for disposability), do not hold for later use!
• Only properly skilled workers can work with Alodin agent, who are cognizant of work with
this type of chemiacl agent (see Safety measures in the Chap. No. 2 of the Manual).
(2) Repaired area should not exceed 5% of the total area. If the repaired area exceeds
approximately 5%, the method of repair must be consulted with metallurgical engineer.
(3) Areas expected to be treated with Alodin preparation must be clean with no presence of oxide
coatings, impurities etc. To get a clean surface use clean cotton rubber either dry or wetted in
pure denaturated alcohol or it is possible to neaten the repaired area with soft emery paper or
Scotchbrite cotton rag.
(4) It is possible to apply the agent immediately after the edge has been chamfered at newly
machined areas - e.g. at clipped skin edges. Generally, the surface after its treatment or a
damage starts to oxidate very soon and then the Alodine agent must be applied as soon as
possible. Rising oxide coating by the time more and more protect the surface against the
Alodine agent breakthrough instrusion. Therefore the surface can not be prepared in advance.
(5) Applying – after the surface has been treated para point (3) dash the small amount of Alodine
solution by means of a nylon brush uniformly and evenly to prevent its trickling down. Dash the
surface until an irridiscent golden to golden yellow coating is obtained. Let it act on for 3 to 10
minutes. Dashed area of the element should be situated vertically. If it is not possible to secure
the vertical positioning, the solution should be dashed from the center area towards outside.
Remove excess Alodine from the surface by gentle swabbing with a soft sponge (foam).
NOTE: In case a larger area is necessary to repair, then it is possible to apply the agent
directly with help of a sponge wetted in the solution.
CAUTION: DO NOT TOUCH THE PAINT AS LONG AS THE PAINT IS WET. ANY
OTHER ORGANIC COATINGS MAY BE APPLIED AFTER AN
APPROPRIATE DRYING.
(6) It is necessary to use always clean utilities for the work (brush, cloths, gloves etc.). After the

compartment floors. Areas expected to be treated with the REVAX 30 agent must be clean with
no presence of mechanical impurities etc. Perform the spray application through the assembly
holes. After the assembly, installation and sealing works have been performed using Hermetic
putty, perform 2x spray application of areas under the passenger compartment floors.
CAUTION: DO NOT DILUTE THE REVAX 30 AGENT, THE VISCOSITY VALUE MAY
BE LOWERED BY MEANS OF WATER BATH HEATING UP TO
TEMPERATURE 35°C.

E. Procedures
(1) Inspect the corroded element, determine the reason of the corrosion and mark the attacked places.
Take into account that corrosion may occur also under the paint, which will cause blisters.
(2) Remove the paint from corroded places by means of special paint removal, applied in layers of
about 1 mm thickness.
Preparation of paint removal: 500 g of old paint removal P 8201 to be carefully mixed with 200-250 g
of degreaser P 8500, than add 25 g of 25 % ammonia water and mix carefully again.
NOTE: After about 30 minutes it is possible to disturb the paint with a knife or a spatula in order
to speed up the removal effect. Apply another removal layer if needed.
(3) Corroded surface has to be cleaned with fine emery paper and pumice.
(5) Check the treated place with a magnifying glass. Taking into account the check result proceed
in accordance with para 6 or 7.
(6) If the treated place shows no corrosion inside the metal (pitting), paint or spray the coat according
to work procedure "Repair of aircraft outer paint" or "Repair of aircraft internal paint" (depending
on what is concerned), mentioned in this section.

(7) In case the corrosion is in the form of dark color spots with rough surface (intercrystalline
corrosion) it means, that the corrosion penetrates inside the metal. In such a case the corroded
skin part or connecting elements must be replaced or repaired. Method of replacement or
repair should be agreed upon with the aircraft manufacturer.
D. Referenced information -
E. Procedures
NOTE: This procedure can be used only in case when the perforated place is accessible from the
internal side too.
(1) Cut out the perforated place into the form of regular geometric figure (square, rectangle, circle) with
rounded edges and when needed, level the adjacent skin by means of hammering with wooden
mallet.
(2) Cracks going behind the cut-out opening are to be drilled on the ends with a drill ∅ 2.1 mm.
NOTE: Drilling of cracks ends should be used in extraordinary cases only. If possible, include
all cracks into the cutout.
(3) Measure and prepare an overlapping sheet, which must overlap the cut-out ends at least by 15 mm,
or drilled crack ends, respectively. The sheet thickness must be the same as the skin thickness
in the place of repair.

(6) Overlap metal sheet to be riveted over the perforated place (cut-out). Use dural rivets of diameter
3 - 5 multiple of individual metal sheets thickness. The rivet before riveting must be of 1.5 dia
longer then all sheets to be riveted. Rivets pitch has to be selected according to pitches on the
circumference of repaired skin, max. 30 mm.
The rivets distance from the metal sheet edge (on internal as well as external side) must be
min. 7 mm at rivet diameter 3 mm.
(7) Coat the repaired place with a coat in accordance with work procedure "Repair of aircraft outer
paint" specified in this section.
D. Referenced information -
E. Procedures
NOTE: This procedure can be used on joints only, where the riveting support from the internal
side can be applied.
(1) Center-punch the loosen rivets in the head center (if the access to the "basic" head is possible).
(2) Drill-off the head of loosen rivet with a drill having the diameter of 0.2 mm greater then the dia of
loosen rivet. When the drilling has been performed properly, the head will separate and remains
on the drill. If not, it is possible to remove the head with the help of a punch by light knocking with
a hammer. The punch diameter must be by 0.2 mm smaller then the diameter of drilled-off rivet.
Use the punch also for eventual knocking-out the rivet shank after drilled-off rivet. When the drill
cannot be centered, drill the hole for the rivet to the nearest higher diameter and use the rivet of
relevant higher diameter (diameter sequence of applicable rivets is: 2.6 - 3 - 3.5 - 4 mm).
(3) Clean the holes after drilling and perform riveting. Use the dural rivets with the strength
2
min. 25 kp/mm of the same type as were the original.

during riveting. Washers are to be inserted under the nuts to avoid damage of the surface treatment.
Holes which do not coincide must not be forced together. The hole is to be redrilled to a suitable
larger diameter, and a bigger rivet used. If, for any reason, it is not possible to enlarge the rivet
hole, it is permissible to use a strap plate made of D 16 ATV material long enough to enable at
least two rivets to be placed on each side of the wrong hole.
(15) Planishing of deformed airframe skins. In case of permanent deformation they lose their strength
and stability after they have been planished, even though no cracks appear. It is therefore
necessary to stiffen the repaired (planished) parts of highly stressed components in a suitable
way.
Slightly buckled skins are to be planished by means of a wooden mallet or hammer, with a block
of hard wood laid under the area being planished. If the deformation has larger extent, the damaged
part is to be cut out and replaced with a new one.
Distorted cracked sheets must be replaced with new ones. This can only be done in an approved
repair shop equipped with assembly pigs.
(16) Stopping of cracks in the skin and blinding of small holes - they can be stopped by drilling a hole
with the help of a drill of diameter 2.1 mm to 3 mm. After a certain period, however, the crack can
continue to propagate. In such a case a new hole is to be drilled. During scheduled
maintenance, check that the crack was stopped.

In case the crack propagation continues or it is a major crack, or in case it is located near an important
structural member, the affected part is to be cut out. There must be a distance of at least 5 mm
between the end of the crack and the edge of the cut-out. A patch of the same material and the
same or greater thickness as the original skin is to be used for repair.
(17) Small holes drilled by mistake or drilled incorrectly are to be blinded by button-head rivets.
The following applies to holes drilled by mistake in important load bearing members:
• If the hole center is located at a distance of min. three diameters of the hole from the free
edge of a load bearing member (a flange or a spar), or from the centers of the nearest rivets,
the hole is to be blinded as instructed above.
• A reduction in cross section due to the hole is to be compensated by means of a strap piece
(refer to para. 7 above).
(18) Major skin damage is to be repaired by means of (anodized) patches. Refer to Chapter 053 of the
Maintenance Manual for patch design. Mark the damaged part and cut out the most suitable
geometric shape (a circle, square, or rectangle). Care must be taken to cut out sufficient part of
the skin with all cracks and adjacent corroded spots. Corners of the cut out openings must
have a radius of not less than 15 mm and edges filed down. The edge of the cut-out must be at
least 5 mm from the end of a crack.
A patch overlap depends on the area of the cut-out:
•
2
A patch of less than 50 cm is to be fastened with a single row of rivets. The patch must
overlap the cut out opening by a margin equal to 4 to 5 times the diameter of the rivets used
for attachment. (Refer to paras 7 through 13 for rivet and pitch).
•
2
A patch with the area of more than 50 cm is to be fastened with a double row of rivets,
and a minimum patch overlap must be equal to 8 times the diameter of the rivets used.
Refer to paras 7 through 13 for rivet size and pitch).
If a damaged area is situated near the spar flange, spar, rib or frame, the patch must be sized
so that it overlaps the adjacent structural members and can be riveted to them.
A patch must fit perfectly to the original structure to prevent a decrease in the ultimate strength
of riveted points, and their loosening due to varying load.
Therefore the patch is to be bent slightly around its border to that it fits on to the original skin
when riveted on.
(19) The following types of patches are used according to the part of the structure to be repaired:
(a) Surface patches. The most common type which can be used in all places where smooth
surface is not a concern, i.e. anywhere except on the wing, stabilizer and fin leading edges.
After a patch is cut to shape, rivet holes are to be marked and rough-drilled using a drill of

the next bigger size than the rivets used. Locate the patch on the skin and drill four holes
through the holes in the corners of the patch using a drill size corresponding to the rivets to
be used. Attach the patch by means of temporary bolts (agraffes) and drill the remaining holes.
Use more agraffes as necessary for a large patch. Rivets in the corners are to be riveted first,
then the middle rivets between the corners and finally the remaining rivets.
(b) Flushed patches. They are used for repair of the wing, stabilizer and fin leading edges.
A damaged skin is to be cut out to receive a regular-shape opening with rounded corners.
Deburr the cut out opening and rivet a stiffening plate (frame) on the inner side of the skin.
Refer to the Maintenance Manual, chapter 53. The stiffening frame is to be riveted by means

Flush patches are also to be used for repair of parts which are not accessible for riveting from
the inside.
The cut out opening in the skin is to be adapted so as to allow insertion of the stiffening frame.
It means that the diagonal of the opening must exceed the width of the stiffening frame.
After the stiffening frame has been riveted on the inner side of the skin, fit on a patch and rivet
it to the stiffening frame by means of special rivets, or other rivets accessible from one side.
It is also possible to use rivnuts located on the stiffening plate and attach the patch to the frame
by means of countersunk-head bolts.
(c) Surface patches over spars, frames, and ribs. Having cut out a damaged skin over a spar or
a frame, fill the resultant gap between a patch and the spar or frame with a strap plate of the
same thickness as the skin.
The strap plate is to be fastened to the spar or frame by means of 2.6 mm dia. countersunk
rivets speed at 60 mm to 100 mm so that the rivets are located between the original rivet
holes. The patch is to be attached at a few points and then rivet holes drilled from the inside.
The original rivet holes in the spars and frames are to be used for riveting.

(1) When the control surfaces and trim tabs are repaired in a servicing plant, new mass balancing of
control surfaces is performed in accordance with technological procedures - spare parts storage -
- in section 020.50.00.
(2) When the control surfaces, trim tabs, and their paint are repaired, or the trim tabs and their controls
replaced in field conditions, the following must always be carried out:
a) check of mass balance of the control surfaces (in accordance with the following procedure)
b) adjustment of mass balance, if necessary (based on the results of the mass balance check).
Perform mass balance according to instruction mentioned in subsection 020.50.00 page 501
(3) When the mass balance is adjusted, a new Balance Record is to be made out in two copies.
This new Balance Record supercedes the preceding one (having a lower ordinal number).
One copy of the Balance Record is filed by the department carrying out the check and adjustment
of mass balance, the other copy is filed by the aircraft operator (like the Leveling and Rigging
Record). The operator must also file the preceding Balance Record showing reasons for their
cancellation as well as the numbers of the superseding Balance Records.
This file provides a chronological survey of interventions in the control surfaces.
NOTE: If the original (SIN 1) Balance Records is not included in the aircraft documentation,
the first Balance Record made out after a repair and subsequent adjustment of mass
balance is given the ordinal numbers. In this case it should be stated in the Note that
No. 1 Balance Record was not included in the aircraft documentation. (The Balance
Records are being included in the documentation starting from the year 1996).

NOTE: This method can only be used if there is a Balance Record for the elevator showing its
condition before the repair. If such Balance Record (usually S/N 1) is not included in
the aircraft documentation, the mass balance of the elevator is to be checked and/or
adjusted in compliance with para (2) subpara (b).
This method is applicable for small repair (e.g. repair of elevator fabric covering by
patches) when additional mass ( GR) and perpendicular distance of its C.G. from the
elevator axis of rotation (XR) can be reliably determined by calculation and/or weighing.
Procedure:
(a) Before the repair, weight the complete elevator and compare the weight with the value of
Ge (bal) (kg) indicated in point 5 of the Balance Record for the elevator before the repair.
If the two values are not coincident, check and/or adjust the mass balance of the elevator

archived. Chronology is indicated by ordinal numbers of Balance Records for each particular control
surface on a particular aircraft. The Balance Records delivered by the manufacturer together with
each aircraft are marked with serial number 1.
When a control surface is repaired, or its paint coat is repaired, or any trim tab is replaced, the
authorized department must carry out a repeated mass balancing of the control surface, and make
out a new Balance Record (Part A).
When this control surface is reinstalled on the original aircraft (or installed on another aircraft),
the operator (or the Quality Control Inspector of final assembly) will fill in Parts B and C of this
Balance Record, and mark the Record with the next higher ordinal number compared to that of
the preceding Balance Record (for the control surface installed on that aircraft before).
If a new (spare) control surface is installed on the aircraft, the operator (or the Quality Control
Inspector of final assembly) will fill in Parts B and C of the Balance Record delivered with the
replacement control surface. Part A of the Record is already filled in by the aircraft manufacturer.
The Balance Record is marked with the next higher number following that of the preceding Record
(for the original control surface).
Validity of the preceding Balance Record must be cancelled by the operator who will fill in Part D
showing the date, the reason for cancellation (repair or replacement of a control surface), and the
ordinal number of the Balance Record superseding it.
NOTE: a) The operator is responsible for obtaining new forms of the Balance Records

(b) Balance the elevator by means of the balancing device to σe = 0 %, using balancing weight GB
see para (13) subpara (b)
(d) If the value of σe is within 4.3 % and 4.7 % Ce, no change in mass balance is required, and
a value of G1 = 0 kg is to be entered in the Balance Record (item No. 5).
(e) Should the center of gravity position be outside the permissible range, it is necessary to change
the weight of the inboard mass balance (B 033 562 N) by the value of G1 (calculated by
means of formula No. 5 given in the Balance Record No. 1, 2) in order to mass balance the
elevator σe = 4.5 % Ce (behind the axis of rotation)
• If the value of G1 is negative (corresponding to σe < 4.5 % Ce), the weight of the inboard
mass balance is to be reduced by this value by drilling out (or milling out) the appropriate
amount of material as shown in the Figure on page 1222 (table No. 1).
• If the value of G1 is positive (corresponding to σe > 4.5 % Ce) the weight of the inboard
mass balance is to be increased by this value by drilling holes as shown in table No. 3
and then filling the holes with lead rollers of 15.5 mm in diameter and not more than 20 mm
in length in order to receive the prescribed value. Clinch the rollers (B 270 129 N) when
inserted in the holes to secure in them in position.

2. Instruction for alternative Mass Balancing of the Aileron suspended on the wing
(in OPERATING CONDITION)
A. Fixture, Test and Support Equipment Not applicable
D. Referenced information -
E. Procedures
(1) General
(a) Mass balancing on prescribed value must be accomplished after the ailerons suspended
on the wing have been assembled completely (including installation of electrical
equipment, controls, etc.) and painted (including coloured signs and markings).
(b) During the mass balancing of the aileron suspended on the wing the aircraft must be
located in closed hangar and positioned in horizontal position (levelled) on hydraulic lifting
jacks.
(c) Mass balancing of the aileron should be carried on the wing which enables deflecting the
aileron with minimum friction in hinges. The aileron (disconnected off the control rod) must
be therefore suspended on two hinges (onto wing ribs No. 21K and No. 27K). The
suspension bearings must be at mass balancing free of dust collectors, cleaned and
greased.
End suspension of the aileron on the rib No. 31a must be removed. Aileron tie rod must be
inserted into the wing as much as possible and tilted as much as possible towards the side
of aerodynamic cover to not hamper to free deflection of the aileron. Fix the tie rod in this
position by some kind of soft material (e.g. rag, foam rubber).
(d) The aileron suspended on the wing can be considered as statically balanced, if the aileron
end rib is in side alignment with the end rib No. 31a on the wing.
(a) Part A of the Balance Record is filled in by the person who carried out mass balancing and
then confirmed by the Quality Control Inspector. Parts B and C should be filled in by the
Quality Control Inspector when the aileron has been installed on a particular aircraft.
Part D of the Balance Record (information concerning its validity) should be filled in only
after the new Balance Record (marked with the next higher ordinal number) is elaborated

after new mass balance of the aileron has been performed (because of an aileron repair,
repair of the finishing coat, after replacement of the trim tab, after replacement of the
aileron with another one etc.)
(3) The operator of the particular aircraft is obliged to archive the Balance Records for all the
ailerons being ever installed on this aircraft in chronological order, showing every intervention
in the mass balance (see item 2-a). This means that both the “valid” and the “cancelled”
Records should be archived.
The chronology is indicated by the ordinal number of Balance Records for each particular
aileron on the particular aircraft. (The Balance Records delivered by the manufacturer together
with each new aircraft are marked with ordinal No. 1).
After any intervention in the mass balance (see item 2-a) mass balancing of the aileron must be
accomplished again and then the new Balance Record should be elaborated (Part A).
When the aileron is installed back on the original aircraft (or on another aircraft), the parts B
and C of the Balance Record should be filled in. The Record must be marked with the next
higher ordinal number compared to the ordinal number of the Balance Record of the aileron,
which has been installed on that aircraft before it.
In case that the new (spare) aileron is suspended on the aircraft, fill in Parts B and C of the
Balance Record delivered with the substituted aileron. Part A of the Record should be filled in
by the new (spare) aileron supplier.
The Balance Record is marked with the next higher ordinal number compared to the Balance
Record of the aileron, which has been suspended on that aircraft before it.
The validity of the precedent Balance Record should be cancelled (in Part D of the Balance
Record), showing the date, the reason for cancellation (see item 2-a), and the ordinal number
of the Balance Record replacing it.
NOTE: Balance Record forms are available in Appendixes of this Instruction, see Balance
Record forms No. 4 and No. 5 enclosed.
(4) Any repeated finishing paint of the aileron is forbidden. If it is necessary for any reason to
change the original painting, the original paint layer must be removed before the new finishing
paint is applied.
(5) Should during usage of this Instruction the condition occur which cannot be re-solved while
observing the instruction herein, it is necessary to consult any deviation with the manufacturer -
AI, a.s. Kunovice.
(6) During the flights and before the putting the aircraft into the service, all the requirements of this
Instruction must be met.

mass necessary for balancing of the aileron into balance position.
• If this balancing mass (lead rollers) can be put completely in the inboard
mass balance bushing, no other balancing mass is required for mass
balancing.
The following values must be entered in the Balance Records No. 4
and/or No. 5:
GB1 (kg), ∆GB2 = 0 kg,
GM = 0 kg, GA [kg] = GA (0) + GB (1), and σA = (%CA).
(b) If the required balancing mass can not be put completely into the inboard

• Put as much balancing mass GB1 (kg) as possible into the inboard mass
balance bushing.
• Fix the lead rollers by means of a rubber insert, screw in the plug and
lock it.
• Realize the remaining balancing mass ”to the axis” on outboard mass
balance. Proceed in the same way as indicated above for the inboard
mass balance.
The required balancing mass, ∆GB2 (kg), is added to the “basic”
outboard balancing mass of GB2 = 0.325 kg providing dynamic
overbalance to -2% CA .
• Fix the balancing mass in the centre mass balance bushing, screw in the

The aileron centre of gravity is forward of its axis of rotation
/ XT < 0 m/, that means the aileron is statically overbalanced
/ σA < 0 % CK / and therefore no balancing mass must be added.
Determine the value of static overbalance σA (% CA) as follows:
(a) Suspend the aileron on the wing (onto suspensions on ribs No. 21A and 27A).
(b) Attach the hook connected to string directly to the skin edge in the suspension
