To prevent fouling between the trailing edge of the elevator hinge beam shroud and the elevator skin lap joint, accomplish the following:
(a) Visually inspect top and bottom shrouds on elevator hinge beam assemblies to unsure that clearance between trailing edge of shroud and forward edge of elevator skin lap joints or rivet heads is not less than 0.20 inch throughout full range of elevator movement.
(b) If clearance is less than 0.20 inch, cut back trailing edge of hinge beam shroud to provide clearance of at least 0.20 inch but less than 0.25 inch throughout full range of elevator movement.
