If your aircraft has the original automotive-type visors, please remove the visors and brackets (2 machine screws beneath canopy seal) from your aircraft with a phillips screwdriver. Carefully lift up the rubber seal that covers the screws to provide access. If your aircraft does not have the visors or did not have that feature, go to installation option A (below) for canopy mount type visors, or Installation option B (page 3) for windshield mount type visors.

Using the /S-32 x 7/16 (AN507C#8-32R8) flat head machine screws included in your hardware packet, install the new Rosen NSA Visors. Use Loc-Tite on machine screws during installation (found in a small zip-lock bag in the installation packet). Install each visor, marked either pilot or co-pilot, in the same location as your old visors, using the same mounting points as shown in Fig. #1.

Reseal rubber canopy seal over mounting screws. The installation is now complete. Please refer to the General Information on Page 4 for care and stowage procedures of your new visors.

Installation Option A: (canopy mount)

Loosen the front rubber canopy seal at the location shown below. If the two factory holes are present, use a #18 drill (.170 D) and drill clear through to the plastic molding, using the factory holes as guides. If the factory holes are missing, use the metal template included in the installation packet and see Figure #2.

Clamp the template provided to the canopy bow as shown in the above figure (Figure #2) from the forward side, with the rubber seal moved to reveal the metal frame. Drill through the metal flange/bow clear through the plastic molding. After the holes have been drilled, a 100° countersink will need to be added under the flange/bow rubber seal for the AN507C#8-32R8 screws.

Locate the drill holes that have penetrated through the plastic molding, place the template against the inside molding, aligning the holes. When every thing is lined up, trace the outline of the template on to the molding, scoring the plastic. When the outline has been transferred over, cut out the area inside the marks. Note: only remove the top layer of the plastic molding. (See Figure #3)

Using the #8-32 x 7/16 (AN507C#8-32R8) flat head machine screws included in your hardware packet, install the new Rosen NSA Visors using Loc-Tite found in the small packet. Install each visor, marked either pilot or copilot, in the cut out area that you have just completed.

Reseal rubber canopy seal over mounting screws. The installation is now complete for option A. Please refer to the General Information section.

Installation Option B : (windshield mount)

Carefully lift up the rubber seal at the location specified in Figure #2. If there are existing screws or holes in the flange/bow at that location utilize one of them as a guide for mounting your new Rosen visors.

Clamp the template provided to the windshield bow under the seal as shown in Figure #2 from the outside, with the rubber seal moved to reveal the metal frame. Using a #18. Bit (.170 D) Drill through the metal flange/bow clear through the windshield mounting flange. After the holes have been drilled, a 100° countersink will need to be added under the flange\bow rubber seal for the AN507C#8-32R8 screws.

Using the #8-32 x 7/16 (AN507C#8-32R8) flat head machine screws included in your hardware packet, install the new Rosen NSA Visors using Loc-Tite found in the small packet. Install each visor, marked either pilot or copilot, using the mounting points you have just completed. (See Figure #4.)

Reseal the rubber windshield bow seal over mounting screws. The installation is now complete for option B.

General Information:

Your new Rosen NSA Sunvisor system has been designed to cover all those areas the factory system missed, especially the complete side of the face. The visor slides, or extends, towards the rear of the aircraft by holding onto the thumb tension screw which is spring loaded to insure that the visor does not move even when the aircraft is climbing or descending. (Refer to Figure #5) When the visor has been moved to the side window, simply slide it to the position most desirable and rotate it into the window area for more clearance.

Tension in the rotating axis can be adjusted to give the desired stiffness of movement. An Allen wrench of appropriate size is included for adjustments as desired. The tension has been preadjusted at our factory, but any drooping can be eliminated by tightening that particular set screw. Location of set screws for this purpose are shown in the following figure.

Stow the visor in the front forward or side position during takeoff and landing to clear canopy release handle. (See Figure #6)

IMPORTANT! (canopy mount only): Visor must be stowed correctly during operation of canopy (exit) to avoid hitting the rear cabin roof frame when the canopy is slid to the rear optimal open position.

Clean visor lens with mild detergent and a soft linen cloth.

For the first time you will be able to see your traffic while still cutting the sun's glare, reducing pilot fatigue. The
visors are designed to cut more than 99% of the ultra violet in the harmful range and 75% of the infrared light, which is the heat you feel.

Your system has a one-year warranty, you must complete and return the enclosed warranty card within 30 days of purchase.

We welcome your comments and suggestions relating to this product or other improvements you may wish developed for your aircraft.
