INSTALLING ALUMINUM ARMS ON METAL GEAR SERVOS

Tools Needed

  1. 2.5mm Allen Wrench
  2. 5.5mm or 7/32” Open End Wrench

 

 

 

 

Procedure

    Thread the 3mm nut onto the 3mm x 22mm bolt. Slide the #4 washer on the bolt.

      Set up the servo in the aircraft using the radio to determine the arm location.

    When setting up, use the plastic arm to locate the correct spline.

    Locate the aluminum arm on the correct spline. Screw
    3mm bolt with the nut and washer finger tight.

Approx. 12 turns – JR NSE 791

Approx. 16 turns – JR DS 8611

Approx. 15 turns – JR DS 8411

Approx. 14 turns – JR DS 8711

 

 

    Tighten nut enough to lock arm to the servo spline.

NOTE: Confirm the location, as it is very hard to remove the arm after it is installed.

 

    With the radio on, the 3mm bolt with the 2.5mm Allen wrench and
    tighten the nut. This will press the aluminum arm on to the splines. 

 

 

    Remove the 3mm bolt, nut, and #4 washer. Replace with the factory
    3mm Phillips screw and lock washer.
