The hole n the square end are supposed to be to suit the brackets from the cross tube. So, it's a rogue hole, and if it came from Europa, as I imagine it must of as a fast build kit, with the bearing possibly pre installed as well, get a new one. I don't think you can use it due to the proximity of the wrong hole, compromising the bracket.
I undid my temporary setup and now will use some sort of nylon to avoid the friction scored marks in my setup.
Hope this he's.

Hi Group

Anyone have any idea why both of my FL-16 Flap Hinge Arms have a hole on the square
end?:

From: "rparigoris" <rparigor(at)suffolk.lib.ny.us>


Hi Group

I accidentally burned my starboard foot-well!

I replaced my lanterns alkaline battery (EverReady) ~ Christmas 2010. It hasn't
seen any use since then.

I sit down in front of my Europa XS Mono to study the undercarriage mounting frame,
need some light. No problem, I grab my lantern that I always store with the
lens up (in case it is left on), turn it on and use it for 5 or so minutes

Morning Tony

Why not use some proper jointing compound between the parts. It will also
prevent corrosion. I was given a tin of a yellow paste by my original
inspector. I have just had a look in the garage to see if I could find the
name but I think the tin has been passed on to another builder.

Regards

Pete

Pete
it's called Duralac. Should always be used when bolting things together. As you say it
inhibits corrosion between dissimilar metals.  That should have been in the manual but I never saw it.

That’s the stuff Graham. Certainly anytime I have disassembled anything the mating surfaces have always been in good condition.
