Narrative:

I did not rig the actuators and did not safety the rod end on four of our B767s. The next aircraft I work will be rigged and safetied correctly. Did not follow the paperwork properly regarding rigging the actuator because of hurry up attitude and assumed it was similar to the 757 winglet auto stow. When I experienced a problem because of different steps that needed to be taken that are different than the paperwork; I saw that I had missed a safety on the actuator and that led me to go back and investigate what I had done. I saw that I had not left the rig pin in the auto stow assembly like the paperwork said; which in turn would have led me to adjust the actuator and I would have then saw the safety on the rod end that would have needed adjustment. I missed this step on the previous aircraft I had worked the auto stow on. Slow down. Read slower and more completely. Being complacent because of prior experience on 757 aircraft auto stow caused me to assume factors. Not checking paperwork properly and hurrying myself to produce to keep the base open.

Original NASA ASRS Text

Title: A Mechanic reports she did not follow the paperwork properly regarding the rigging of speed brake control rod actuators and safetying of their rod ends on five B767's. The control rods were installed as part of the winglet installation to protect the flight spoilers from an overspeed condition.
