INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
FOR
COMMANDER 112/114
Installing your Rosen NSA Sunvisor System is easily performed and should
take approximately 1 to 2 hours.
Please read these short instructions COMPLETELY before starting.
Installation Hardware included:
Quantity - (1) 7/64 Alien Key for #6-32 cap screw
Quantity - (1) 9/64 Alien Key for #8-32 cap screw
Quantity - (1) 5/32 Alien Key for #10-32 cap screw
Quantity - (1) 11/32 Flat Closed End Tightening Wrench
Quantity - (2) Plastic Nut Cap
Your Rosen Sunvisor System is very easy to install but needs a few tools
to complete the job.
- A short Phillips tip screwdriver
- Allen wrenches (included in installation package)
- A 3/16 drill
- A 3/8 drill (for some models) to enlarge the trim hole for the visor mounting stud
- A tool to remove the "C" Clips on the trim of some models
- A 5/16" open end wrench
- A 3/4" open end wrench
- Remove the original visors from your aircraft with a Phillips tip screwdriver.
- Starting on the pilot's side remove the trim exposing the existing visor
mounting flange.
- Position the new bracket support to the existing lock-nut and flange and
restrain in this position with a #10-32 screw.
(*Note: the beveled edges mark the upper end of the bracket.)
- Use the slot to provide the best fit condition between the new support bracket
and the "C" channel flange.
- Mark the center of the upper bracket flange slot on the structural channel
flange.
Remove the temporarily installed bracket.
- Check behind the structural channel flange to clear any wiring or other
materials that may be disturbed. Reposition anything that may be damaged.
If necessary add additional protection for any wiring in the vicinity of
the fastener.
- Drill a 3/16" diameter hole at the marked location in the channel flange. (Be careful
not to penetrate the structural outer surface.)
- Using the #8-32 x 3/4 hex head cap screw, #8 washer, and the #8-32 nv-lock nut, install the bracket.
Check the alignment of the bottom flange slot in relationship to the existing mounting flange hole and lock nut
prior to tightening the cap screw fastener on the new bracket support. Use the 11/32 closed end tightening wrench
(provided) to tighten the screw/nut.
- Fit the plastic cap over the nyloc nut to protect the wiring.
- Remove the Rosen mounting stud and locking washer from the hardware packet and verify the raised
internal threaded section of the washer fits into the trim clearance hole prior to installing the trim.
- Use a 3/8 inch drill to enlarge the hole in the trim and reinstall the trim covering the visor mounting bracket
you have just prepared.
- Screw the locking washer on the mounting stud until the flat surface of the washer is in contact with the base
of the stud. Install the mounting stud through the trim hole and new bracket into the original mounting nut. Tighten the
stud using a 5/16 open end wrench. Be sure the raised diameter of the locking washer is located through the hole in the trim piece.
After the stud is tightened use a 3/4" open end wrench to tighten the locking washer against the bracket system.
- Install the Rosen Visor Assemblies as appropriate. When installed the red tensioning knob should be towards the
windscreen. The visor mounting hole is pre-lubricated from the factory so you may need to wipe off the excess grease
when installed.
- Repeat this procedure for the co-pilot's side.
- Place the FAA STC and AML (if appropriate) in the Aircraft Maintenance Log and make an installation entry in the Log.
- Congratulations, you have now completed the installation procedure.
- Your new Rosen Sunvisor System has been designed to cover all those areas the factory system missed, especially the complete side of the face.
For the first time you will be able to see your traffic while still cutting the suns glare reducing pilot fatigue.
