2.8 - Replace the radome - CTS v2
- James Eadie
Lower the radome onto the body of the radar unit, ensuring that the new o-ring remains fully within its recess. As you do so, align the pen marks for radome orientation and also ensure the bolt holes coincide with those in the chassis (rotating the radome once fitted is difficult).
Insert the six new bolts and washers from the service kit and using a T20 Torx® driver, tighten the bolts to a torque of between 140 and 160 cNm or until the washers are just held in place without movment.

If cracks are seen running down from the radome mount holes then before the radome is fitted the area should be cleaned with IPA or an equivalent. Then the provided radome stickers can be applied to support the area around the mount holes. This should prevent the cracks extending further while also improving the cosmetic look of the radome.
