2 Procedure
2.1 If it is not possible to complete all the instructions in this service bulletin
because of the configuration of the aircraft, speak with a CRC representative
at 1 866 A220 CRC (1-866-222-0272) or 1-450-476-7676 or e-mail at
A220_crc@abc.airbus for analysis and to get an approved disposition to
complete this service bulletin.
Applicability: 50010-50019, 55010-55015, 55018-55033, 55035-55037, 55040, 55044-55049, 55056-55057
2.2 For Galley G1, adjust the tie-rod assemblies as follows:
Refer to Fig. 1
2.2.1 Open the locking clip at the top end of all the tie-rod assemblies.
2.2.2 Turn the center part of all the tie-rod assemblies to loosen them until
the attachment pin at the top end of the all tie-rod assemblies can be
easily moved out.
2.2.3 To make sure that there is no load applied on all the tie-rod
assemblies, remove the attachment pin at the upper end of all the tie-
rod assemblies.
2.2.4 Install the attachment pin at the top end of all the tie-rod assemblies.
2.2.5 With your hand, slowly turn the center part of all the tie-rod assemblies
until you hear one click sound. This will prevent the tie-rod assemblies

Refer to Fig. 9
2.10.1 Open the locking clip at the top end of all the tie-rod assemblies.
2.10.2 Turn the center part of all the tie-rod assemblies to loosen them until
the attachment pin at the top end of the all tie-rod assemblies can be
easily moved out.
2.10.3 To make sure that there is no load applied on all the tie-rod
assemblies, remove the attachment pin at the upper end of all the tie-
rod assemblies.
2.10.4 Install the attachment pin at the top end of all the tie-rod assemblies.
2.10.5 With your hand, slowly turn the center part of all the tie-rod assemblies
until you hear one click sound. This will prevent the tie-rod assemblies
to move freely and make noise.
Note
Tie-rod assemblies have an internal ratchet system.
2.10.6 To prevent pre-loading of all the tie-rod assemblies, make sure that
you hear only one click when the center part of each tie-rod assembly
