See below. Step 3 says “#12 final drill the 3 holes at B…”
The diagram only points to two holes at B, where the pushrods connect. There is a third similar sized hole, which I believe to be a tooling hole.

I don’t see an issue with minimally enlarging the tooling hole to #12. Mainly wondering if I am missing something, or if the KAI intended to say “2 holes at B”

Anyone done this step yet?

Don't drill it, it is likely to be a rigging hole. I don't have a kit yet but this is what I thought when reviewing these plans. There should be similarly aligned holes in the bulkheads this part bolts into so a #10 or 3/16 bolt can hold the bell crank fixed wile you adjust rod lengths.


I think step three has an error which you can report at the link below.

Thanks for that input.
I just put the bellcrank in place in the mixer box, and that hole does align with holes in the mixer box so a rigging hole makes sense.

Thanks!
