Task Instructions
1. If ¼-turn fastener is damaged, remove the fastener from the cowling and discard. (Figure 234)
2. If the receptacle is damaged, carefully drill out the rivets securing the affected receptacle.
3. With a bit, carefully deburr and clean the holes.
CAUTION: 
Do not elongate the holes further. If the holes are oversized, contact ICON for assistance.
4. Install the new receptacle with appropriate length blind rivets, ensuring the black tab is visible on the receptacle.
Note: 
Ensure that the locking clip groove on the receptacle is facing outward/upward for ease of access.
Note: 
Do not remove the black tab until the fastener has a proper fit. If there is no black tab on the receptacle, then use a pick tool to pry locking clip out of the groove in the receptacle barrel surface.
