Feel the locking knobs on the rails for looseness. If the knobs become too loose,
they come off and so does the rocket. Tighten loose knobs with a wrench.
During setup, make
sure the locking pin for
the landing leg is fully
inserted. If the pin is
missing or it works out,
the leg can collapse.

Test the strength of the
launcher locking pins by
gently pulling on them. If a
pin's spring is worn out, the
locking pin will come out. A
weak pin lets the launching
arm fly out of position during
firing. That's dangerous.
Hope we
cleared up
your mine-

problems!

Before the MICLIC goes to the
paint shop, cover the markings for
the hydraulic control selector
valve. If the markings are painted
over, you'll be guessing what
you're selecting. The settings are
already painted over? Have your
repairman stencil them on. See Fig
1.29 in the TM for the settings.
