b. Inspection. Inspect for frayed cable and loose U-bolts. Check main member for bends, or cracks, and
for damaged paint. Check operating shaft for straightness and make sure shaft pawl swings freely on its
mounting rivet. Check threads on bolts and nuts of pickup member.
c. Repair. Replace cable (para. 4-51) if any broken strands are apparent. Tighten U-bolts if loose. Main
member can be reshaped if bent, but should be replaced if it cannot be returned to proper working condition.
If ratchet on operating shaft is broken or damaged, replace operating shaft. If shaft pawl does not swing
freely, replace pawl. Replace any bolts or nuts which have seriously damaged threads.
