The LongRanger III is a single engine, seven place helicopter designed to taka off and land on
any reasonably level terrain'. Standard configuration provides for one pilot and RX passen-
gers. Passenger seat cushions can be removed or rearranged and approximately 80 cubic
feet of cargo can be carried internally at a floor loading limit of 75 pounds per sql'are foot.
Also, the aft doors may be removed to permit carrying wide loads. In addition, a 16 cU,bic
foot baggage compartment is located beneath the engine compartment with a maximum
cargo weight of 250 pounds and a floor loading limit of 86 pounds per square foot; but this
cargo weight limit is dependent upon the calculated center of gravity limits of tileaircrah for
the flight. Fuel capacity is 112 U.S. gallons distributed within three cells. '

The main rotor is a semirigid, seesaw, two blade design which employs a precOiled and
underslung feathering axis to ensure smooth operation. The blades are a droop snoot airfoil
with swept tips which reduce noise and minimize the adverse effects of the high mach
numbers on the advancing blade tip.

The, tail rotor is a semirigid, delta hinged, two blade design.

The LongRanger III is powered by an Allison turboshaft engine Model 250-C30P that provides
435 shaft horsepower for takeoff and 370 shaft horsepower for maximum continuous opera-
tion. The use of this light weight gas turbine engine, a high strength. to weight ratio bonded
honeycomb constructed airframe, simplified dynamic components, and a nodal beam suspen-
s'.on to dampen main rotor vibrations have produced a precision balance between perfor-
mance, maintenance dependability, and capability.

The 206L-3 can be equipped with various landing gear configurations including: high skid
landing gear, float landing gear (standard), or emergency flotation gear.

AIRFRAME

The fuselage consists of three main sections: the forward section which extends from the
cabin nose to the bulkhead aft of the passenger compartment, the intermediate section which
extends from the bulkhead aft of the passenger compartment to the tailbocm, and the
tailboom section.

The forward section utilizes aluminum honeycomb structure and provides the major load·
carrying elements of the forward cabin. It provides for pilot and passenger seating, fuel cell
enclosure, and pylon support.

The crew (optional) and passenger doors (standard) contain a three component wedge
shaped window of blue tinted plastic with the lower forward section as a sliding window for
ventilation. This sliding window is adjustable and the window handle functions not only as
·a.;handle to open but also as a retainer to keep the window from sliding out of the track. The
windshields are fabricated of tinted acrylic plastic and are supported by formed aluminum
allqy sections. Two blue tinted transparent lower windows fabricated of plastic are located
in the lower cabin nose section. Two cabin roof windows (skylight) are provided in the roof
of forward compartment. The cabin panel window is located on the right side of the helicop-
ter, and it is a fixed window made of tinted plastic.

6
The helicopter is equipped with five entrance/exit doors for crew and passengers, as well as
a variety of hinged doors and panels, which provide access for inspection ami ser.Jicing,
Crew and passenger doors are located on both sides of the fuselage, while a sil'lg\e litter door
and a baggage compartment door are on the left side of the helicopter.

A crew door is installed on each side of the forward fuselage to provide access to the cockpit
area. Each door is equipped with a latch assembly, which may be operated from either side
of. the door, and a lock, installed in the exterior door handle. Each door incorporates a sliding
window and a stationary window.

A passenger door is installed on each side of the fuselage to provide access to the cabin
area. Each is equipped with a latch assembly, which may be operated from either side of the
door, and a lock installed in the exterior door handle. The left passenger door is hinged on
the litter door, so that the two may be opened together to aid in loading the helicopter.

The litter door, located between the crew and passenger doors on the left side of the helicop-
ter, is hinged forward and is opened in conjunction with the left passenger door to provide
_. increased access for loading the cabin area. The door must be closed and latched properly,
or the LInER DOOR OPEN warning light will illuminate.

The baggage compartment door, located aft of the passenger door on the left side of the heli-
copter, is hinged forward and is secured by two pushbutton latches and a keyed lock.

The battery access door, located on the nose of the helicopter, provides access to the
battery,.battery.relay, TOTlight reset key switch, the reset key switch circuit breaker, hour-
meter, and the 10 amp left fuel boost pump circuit breC!ker. The access door is hinged aft,
and two camloc fasteners secure the forward edge of the door to the fuselage.

'J Door locks are installed in the crew, ·Iitter, passenger, and baggage compartment d90rS .to
provide security to the cockpit, cabin, and baggage areas. Locks are similar in construction,
and are keyed alike, except for the baggage compartment door lock.

Doors and panels are provided at various locations in the cowling and fairings for servicing
and inspection of interior areas. The oil reservoir access door and the oil cooler access door
are located on the aft fairing. The engine cowling has side panels which are hinged for easy
access, and the air induction cowling has doors on both sides for inspection of the transmis-
sion area. Most miscellaneous access doors open on piano hinges and are secured with flush
latches and winghead stud fasteners.

The intermediate section utilizes an aluminum semimonocoque construction and provides a


deck for engine instanation, baggage compartment, aria a compartment under the engine
deck for heater and electrical equipment.

A titanium engine pan, located below the engine, acts as both a drip pan and firewail. "it is
curved to provide sufficient clearance to allow for the removal of accessories witho,.!t having
to remove the engine. The engine pan along with the titanium fore and aft firewalls are fitted
within the top part of this section to form the engine compartment. .

Located directly below the engine area is the baggage compartment which has a volume
capacity of 16 cubic feet and can carry a maximum of 250 pounds. The cargo door, located
on the left side of the fuselage and hinged at the forward end, opens the full width and
height of this compartment; and it is secured by means of two pushbutton latches and a
keyed lock. Within the compartment are ten tie-down loops to secure cargo and equipment.
There is space for additional equipment immediately behind the baggage compartment.
Selected items can be installed there without interfering with the baggage area.

The equipment compartment is the area behind the parcel shelf and above the baggage
ccmpartment. It contains the electrical relays and regulators and has space for the optional
heater or environmental control unit - a convenient location near the source of bleed air.

The tail boom is attached to the aft fuselage by means of four bolts. Two end plates, the
horizontal stabilizer, vertical fin, and fairings are provided not only to provide stability but
also to protect and provide a covering. for the tail rotor drive shaft and tail rotor gearbox.
Modification, including installation of antenna, lights or equipment that change the mass or
mass distribution of the helicopter are not permitted without Bell Helicopter TEXTRON
approval.

The end plates or dynamic dihedrals, located on each end of the horizontal stabilizer and off-
set 5 degrees to the left of centerline to provide a 0 degree angle of incidence to the airflow
over the tail boom, improve dihedral (roll) stability of the aircraft in forward flight.

The horizontal stabilizer, a one piece aluminum honeycomb structure, is an inverted airfoil
which provides a downward resultant lift on the tailboom to maintain the cabin in a nearly
level·attitude throughout all cruise airspeeds and to aerodynamically streamline the fuselage
to reduce drag. Along with the leading edge slats that were included to improve pitch stabil-
ity during climbs are controllable trailing edge surfaces that function to increase the center
of gravity range. .

The vertical fin, composed primarily ·of aluminum and honeycomb construction, provides
directional (yaw) stability. It contains a top fairing to mount the anticollision light and on the
lower edge, a rubber bumper and tail skid. It sweeps back, both above and below the end
of the tailboom, on the right side. The leading edge is canted outboard to reduce tail rotor
thrust during forward flight at cruise speed.

The tail rotor gearbox fairing encloses the tail rotor gearbox and is attached to the tailboom
and vertical fin. It incorporates a white position light and three screens. Orie screen is used
for tail rotor gearbox oil level inspection. The other two are for cooling of the tail rotor
gearbox.

9
10
A tubular steel tail skid and bumper are installed on the lower portion of the vertical fin. The
purpose of the tail skid is to warn the pilot of a tail low altitude when landing.

The skid landing gear consists of two skids attached on ends of two arched cross tubes that·
are secured to the fuselage by means of four strap assemblies. Each skid tube is fitted with·
a forward end step, a tow fitting, two saddles with sockets for cross tubes, six separate·
shoes along the bottom, a rear cap, and two eyebolt fittings for mounting of ground handling
gear. The airfoil type skid landing gear fairings enclose the forward and aft cross tubes and
are constructed from white thermoplastic with aluminum alloy stiffeners and supports.

The allowable permanent set of the cross tubes with the weight of the helicopter removed
for the standard gear is1.:.9Jnch per side. High gear with float pans or high gear with skid
tubes is 2.0 inches per side. Also, it is recommend that no components be attached to the
landing gear assembly except as designated by the manufacturer. To do otherwise, could
lead to premature failure of the crosstube.

SWASHPlATE

22
SWASHPlATE

The main rotor controls consist of the swashplate and support assembly, sleeve drive link,
and pitch links.

The swashplate and support assembly transfers cyclic control motions from the nonrotating
to the rotating control system. The swashplate and support encircles the mast directly above
the transmission, and it is mounted on a universal support (pivot sleeve or uniball) that
permits it to be tilted in any direction. Movement of the cyclic control stick results in a
corresponding tilt of the swashplate and the main rotor.

The collective lever and link assembly is mounted to the swash plate support assembly and
transfers collective flight control i.nputs to the swashplate.

Movement of the collective pitch lever actuates the sleeve assembly which in turn raises or
lowers the swashplate and transmits collective control to the main rotor. The cyclic controls
are mixed with collective control through the mixing lever located at the base of the control
column.

The swashplate drive assembly consists of a collar set, idler link, and an idler lever. The
collar set is attached to the mast, and the idler link is attached to the outer ring of the.
swashplate. The idler lever connects between the collar set and idler link.

The pitch link assembly connects the pitch horn on the blade grips to the swashplate which
transmits control input from both the .collective and cyclic controls.

TRANSMISSION

TRANSMISSION MOUNTS
TRANSMISSION MOUNTS

The transmission, mast, main rotor hub, and the blade assembly are supported by and iso-
lated from the fuselage by means of the transmission mounts (nodal beam) and transmission
restraint. This is accomplished through the use of four link attachments and two stop
mounts bolted to the transmission. Attached to these are four link assemblies, which are
secured to the four support and the flexure assemblies. The support assemblies are bolted
to the cabin roof shell and cabin roof beam, and they contain elastomeric bearing and bush-
ing members to isolate and to balance vibration inputs from the rotor into the flexure assem-
blies. These assemblies are the primary vibration isolating component that provide for a
vibration free ride throughout the helicopter's speed range. The transmission restraint
restricts movement of the transmission through the use of <;In elastomeric !;lea ring and bush-
ing member which is secured to the transmisSion restraint support. This support is then
bolted to the cabin roof shell and cabin roof beam along with two drag pins. The two stop
mounts bolted to the transmission are installed over the drag pins. The up stops mounted
on the drag pins restrict the vertical movement of the transmission and all oscillatory
movement. Tuning weights, which are bolted to the arm and flexure assemblies, provide for
the fine tuning and balance of the transmission mounting system.

The arm and flexure assembly is the primary nodal beam component that isolates main rotor
and transmission vibrations from the fuselage. The nodal beam installation develops through-
out the helicopter's speed range a standing wave form to reduce fuselage vibrations. The
arm assemblies are manufactured from aluminum alloy and are bushing mounted to the fore
and aft support assemblies. The flexure assembly, which is contained between the two arm
assemblies, consists of a laminated elastomer flexure, shims, and shear pads bonded into
metal brackets. Tellurium lead tuning weights, which are located on the end of the arm
assemblies adjacent to the flexure, provide a method for tuning the nodal beam instaliatic;m.

The forward and aft support assemblies, which are manufactured from aluminum alloy,
contain bonded elastomeric bearing and bushing members to isolate the arm and flexure
assemblies from the fuselage.

28
TRANSMISSION RESTRAINT

The transmission restraint is an elastomeric spring assembly enclosed in a steel housing. The
restraint is secured in an isolation support that is mounted to the cabin roof beam; and it
restricts forward, aft, and lateral transmission movement. The forward arms of the restraint
contain teflon lined spherical bearings that are attached to the stop mounts which in turn are
secured to the transmission. The transmission is further restrained through the stop mounts
by means of the up stops and drag pins.

The aluminum alloy, isolation support is secured to the upper cabin roof sheil and cabin roof
beam. It provides a fixed structural support for the transmission restraint.

The two steel stop mounts, which are attached to tbe lower aft portion of the transmission
case, limit vertical and oscillatory movement of the transmission.

the two steel drag pins limit the oscillatory movement of the transmission through the stop
mounts. Vertical restraint is limited by the up stops which consist of a bonded upper and
lower disk in contact with the stop mounts.

MAIN DRIVE SHAFT

The main drive shaft consists of flexible splined couplings and a flanged hollow shaft which
are installed between the freewheeling assembly and the transmission input drive adapter
flange. The flexible coupling accommodates movement between the transmission and free-
wheeling assembly. A spring in each coupling assists in the centering of the drive shaft
during operation.

It is designed to transfer power from the engine to the transmission during normal operations
and to transfer from the transmission to the tail rotor system during autorotation. Preflight
inspection consists of observing the outer coupling for discoloration caused by overheating,
signs of damage to the grease seals, or actual grease loss.

HYDRAUliC SYSTEM

The hydraulic system provides pressurized fluid to operate the cyclic and collective flight
control servo actuators.

Operation of the system is electrically controlled by means of the hydraulic system switch.
When the hydraulic system solenoid valve is de-energized (switch on), fluid flows to the
three servo actuators. When the valve is energized (switch off), fluid flows to the reservoir
and bypasses the three servo actuators. In case of total electrical failure, the system is fail-
safe ON.

The hydraulic reservoir and cover, constructed from magnesium alloy, are mounted on a
brace and support forward of the main transmission and above the hydraulic pump assembly.
Fluid is cooled in the reservoir by means of atmospheric radiation.

The hydraulic pump, mounted on and driven through the rotor tachometer generator, is a
variable delivery, self-lubricated type, that is designed to operate continuously, and to
provide a rated discharge pressure of 600 + 25 psi. The pump contains four marked ports:
inlet, outlet, case, and seepage drain.

Each hydraulic filter, rated at 15 microns absolute, incorporate a 70 psid, red indicator
button, which is installed on a bracket on the forward right side of the cabin roof near the
main transmission. One filter is installed in the pressure line and the other in the return line.
The return line filter incorporates a bypass valve, which serves to prevent over pressurization
of the return system if the filter eleme!1t in the return line becomes clogged, and it will open
when pressure drop across the filter element increases to 100 ± 10 psi. When the pressure
decreases to 65 psi minimum, the bypass valve will close. Therefore, if the filter element in
the return line becomes clogged, the bypass valve will open and allow fluid to bypass the fil-
ter and return to the reservoir. Also, the hydraulic pump has an internal pressure compensa-
tor which will prevent application of excessive pressure to the filter in the pressure line;
therefore, no bypass valve is required in the pressure line filter.

The relief valve, installed forward of the transmission in the center work deck area, is incor-
porated in the hydraulic system to control system pressure. It is normally closed; but if
system pressure should exceed the normal pressure range of 600 psi and rise to 670 to 750
psi, it will open to protect the system from damage.

The cyclic and collective servo actuator support, installed on the cabin roof forward of the
transmission, serves as a mount for the three servo actuators and associated bell cranks. The
collective servo actuator is mounted in the center position and the two cyclic servo actuators
are mounted on the outboard positions .

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Controls for the 28 volt direct current electrical system are located on the overhead console
and instrument panel. Power is supplied by a nickel-cadmium battery and a combination
starter/generator. Control relays, power relays, voltage regulators, and circuit breakers
control and regulate the voltage transfer. Malfunction monitoring circuits are located in
individual compartments.

DC POWER SYSTEM

The dc power systems include the battery, external power, starter/generator, and
starter/igniter systems.

BATTERY SYSTEM .

The battery system includes the battery, battery relay, battery switch, and related wiring.

During engine operation a fully charged battery can be determined by moving the battery
switch from BAT to OFF and observing the effect on the generator loadmeter. Ifthe change
in indications is less thaI) 2.5% on loadmeter, the battery is fully charged.

The battery relay, located in the nose section forward of battery, is an electrically operated
switch controlling battery current to the main bus bar. It is actuated by a battery switch,
located in the overhead console, which opens and closes the circuit to the relay energizing
coil.

EXTERNAL POWER SYSTEM

The external power system includes the external power receptacle, external power relay, and
related wiring. (Maximum current limit of the external power source should not exceed 1,000
amperes.)

The external power receptacle, located in front center at the nose section, is a polarized
receptacle used as a contact point for external power plug in.

The external power relay, located in the nose below the battery in the landing light compart-
ment, is an electrically operated switch between the external power receptacle and main bus
bar. It is controlled through the small positive pin from the external power source which
energizes the circuit to the activating coil of the relay.

GENERATOR SYSTEM

The generator system includes the generator portion of the starter/generator, generator
control unit, line control relay, generator reset switch, and generator shunt.

The generator, located on the underside of the engine to the right of the helicopter centerline,
furnishes power at a regulated voltage for all dc electrical components on the helicopter. The

44
generator switches onto the main bus when the generated voltage exceeds the voltage on
the bus by 0.30 to 0.42 volts.

A generator control unit is the heart of the electrical system. It operates the line control
relay, regulates generator voltage, and provides protection against overvoltage and reverse
current. It contains an electronic voltage regulator to control the voltage output of the de
generator and a circuit to energize the line contactor when correct conditions exist.

The line control relay is installed on the electrical panel assembly located on the equipment
shelf above the baggage compartment. It opens or closes the power circuit between the de
bus and generator, and it is controlled by the presence or absence of a proper output voltage
from the generator control unit.

The generator reset switch, located on the overhead console, is a double-pole, triple-throw,
spring-loaded switch with only momentary contact in the RESET position. It completes the
generator field circuit in the ON position, supplies voltage to reset the generator field in the
RESET position, and disconnects generator field circuit in the center OFF position.

The generator shunt is installed on the electrical panel assembly on the equipment shelf
above the baggage compartment and provides a voltage drop proportional to the current in
order to operate the loadmeter.

BEll HELICOPTER HISTORY
Bell Aircraft Corporation, the predecessor of Bell Helicopter Textron Inc. was founded July
10,1935 in Buffalo, New York by Lawrence D. Bell, a man referred to as "America's most
seasoned dreamer."
.'

Bell Helicopter Textron Inc. started from the Bell Aircraft Corporation's early developments
in the helicopter field during World War II, which produced the world's first commercially
licensed helicopter in March 1946. By 1950, the commercial and military helicopter business
had grown to such proportions as to warrant the establishment of a separate Helicopter Divi-
sion, which moved into its new facilities at Fort Worth, Texas, in 1952.

This move was made in order to establish an integrated facility that could concentrate its full
attention on the design, development, and the production of rotary wing aircraft. The
facilities and management techniques that have been developed and continuously updated
represent the most modern capabilities in the United States today for the development and
production of VTOL systems. They provide Bell Helicopter Textron Inc. with a complete in-
house capability to produce VTOL systems including the full range of engineering talents, and
the ability to produce all components required in the manufacture of the basic helicopter
vehicle.

In 1960, Textron Inc. of Providence, Rhode Island bought various Bell Aircraft properties
including the helicopter operation. Textron changed the name of the helicopter operation to
Bell Helicopter Company, and within a few years Bell Helicopter Company established itself
as Textron's largest division. In January, 1976, the name was changed to Bell Helicopter
Textron, and in 1982 to Bell Helicopter Textron Inc. The Helicopter Training Facility was first
established at Buffalo in June 1946, and moved to Fort Worth, Texas with the Helicopter
Operation. Over 41,000 students have graduated from ihe Bell Helicopter Training Academy.

TOday, Bell's Customer Training Academy and Aircraft Delivery Center facilities offer the
most complete training and customer service available. The facilities include an instruction
building housing classrooms, instructor and pilot office space; new aircraft delivery offices
and custome'r lounge. In addition, two hangars and one shop/laboratory are also available.
One hangar and the laboratory are utilized by the Training Academy to teach hands-on
maintenance and overhaul courses. The second hangar provides a maintenance area for
helicopters used in training and as a storage space for new aircraft awaiting delivery.

Over 27,000 military and commercial Bell Helicopters have been delivered to customers.

Bell Helicopter Textron, Inc. (BHTI) commercial model manuals have certain requirements that"':
determine content and format. Some Flight Manual data is required by regulations of the
Federal Aviation Administration, and the Maintenance Manual format is determined by the
A ""(A.~J QO Specification of the ~merjc_antransROr:t Association Cl:f America. Some deviations
to the specification are made to better adapt the ptlblications to helicopter maintenance.

The instructions set forth in the Flight and Ma:ntenance publications, as supplemented or
modified by Alert Service Bulletins and other directions issued by BHT! and Airworthiness
Directives issued by the Federal Aviation Administration, must be strictly followed.

The 206L-4 is a single engine, seven place, utility type helicopter. Standard empty weight
is 2,274 pounds, the maximum internal gross weight is 4,450 pounas and the maximum
cargo hook loading is 2000 pounds. '.

The standard configuration provides seating for one pilot and six passengers. The passenger
seats and doors can be removed to utilize the aircraft in a utility configuration. Removal of
the seats in the cabin area provides approximately 80 cubic feet of cargo area, with a
maximum floor loading of 75 pounds per square foot. An optional cargo hook can be attach-
ed to the bottom of the aircraft to accommodate external cargo operations. Also, the
aircraft has a 16 cubic foot baggage compartment with a maximum floor loading of 86
pounds per square foot.

The aircraft is powered by an Allison turboshaft engine Model 250C-30P, rated at 650 shaft
horsepower. The transmission is limited at 490 shaft horsepower for takeoff, and 370 shaft
horsepower continuous operation. Q ,I
:2- ·3S
The main rotor is a semirigid, seesaw, two blade design which employs preconing and an
underslung feathering axis to ensure smooth operation: The blades are a droop snoot airfoil
with swept ~ips to reduce noise. --- -

The tail rotor is a semirigig, delta,~inged, two blade design.

The aircraft is equipped with a .nod~1 beam suspension system to dampen main rotor
vibrations.

1{several different skid type landing gear configurations are available to better equip the
'j: aircraft for a particular type operation. 1.<", Oi,J'

AIRFRAME SECTIONS '
TheQ06L-4 is divided into three major sections: forward, intermediate, and tailboom.

The forward section of the aircraft begins at the nose of the aircraft and extends aft tothe
rear landing gear attachment point. Included in the forward section of the aircraft is the
main rotor, transmission, cabin, pilot and passenger doors, fuel cells, and the landing gear.
\Ihe forward section is composed primarily of aluminum ho_neyc:.()ID.t> structure. This structure
was utilized due to both the excellent weight to strength ratio and the ability to dampen
noise and vibrations.

The intermediate section includes the engine, the equipment/electrical shelf. the baggage
compartment, and oil cooler assembly. It consists of.semimonocoque constructiQll, and the
~Iuminum skins are of various thickness to accommodate the different dynamic loads.

The tailboom section includes the tail rotor drive shafts, horizontal stabilizer, vertical fin, tail

VENTilATION SYSTEM
Air for cabin ventilation is obtained by opening the sliding windows in each of the entrance
doors. Additional ventilation to the crew area may be obtained through ram air grills located
in nose of the helicopter. When this additional ventilation is needed, it is gained by the pilot
pulling the VENT control knob and positioning DEFCJG Blf)WER. switch on overhead console
to ON position.

RAM AiR SYSTEM

When the vent control knob below the instrument panel is pulled out, ambient ram air will
be forced into the air intake grills and directed through the plenum and turn vane. The turn
vane incorporates a flapper valve assembly which is opened or closed by means of a control
cable and the vent control knob.

PLENUM AND TURN VANE

Plenum and turn vane are constructed of molded polycarbonate and direc"t the flow of ram
ventilation air. The plenum incorporates the flapper valve that Is connected to control cable
and VENT control knob and is controlled by the pilot to regulate the amount of air flow. The
turn vane is attached to the plenum and incorporates a drain tube to drain moisture from the
system.

FlAPPER VALVE

The flapper valve is mounted in the aft portion of the plenum. The opening or closing of the
flapper valve is regulated by the pilot through the use of the"VENT control knob.

DEFOG SYSTEM

Two electrically driven axial flow blowers are installed in the inlet end of the defroster
nozzles. The blowers are controlled by DEFOG BLOWER circuit breaker type switch on the
forward end of the overhead console. The defog system is primarily used for ventilation and
defoggin.g during ground operation of the helicopter. When system is used for ventilation
.or defogging, it is recommended that both VENT control knobs be pulled out and locked to
full open position.

AXIAL FlOW BLOWER

The two axial blowers are the multivane type and are mounted to the defroster nozzles in
an isolator mount clamp.

DEFOGGER NOZZLE

The defogger nozzles are constructed of molded polycarbonate. Outlet slots are located

HORIZONTAL STABILIZER
The horizontal stabilizer, two end plates, and the vertical fin provide stal;lility. The fairings
act to protect and provide a covering for the tail rotor drive shaft and tail rotor gearbox.
Modification, including installation of antenna, lights or equipment that change the mass or
mass distribution of the helicopter are not permitted without Bell_Helicopter TEXTRON
approval.

The horizontal stabilizer, a one piece !?llummwm honeycom5i structure, consists of a fixed
stabilizer, a moveable elevator, a'leading edge slat, .and vertical end plates constructed of
honeycomb panels. The assembly is an airfoil shaped beam with chem milled skins that
support the end plates or auxiliary vertical fins on each end and a movable honeycomb
elevator on the trailing edge. Ihe horizontal stabilizer provides a Q.Qwnw.ar:d.J:e.s.ultan!J.i.f:L9J1
the tail boom to maintain the cabin in a nearly level attitude throughout all cruise airspeeds
and to aerodynamIcally streamline the fuselage to reduce drag. Along with the leading edge
slats, that were added to the leading edge of the stabilizer to improve pitch stability during
climbs, are controllable trailing edge surfaces, know as elevators, ihat function to increase
t.!:!e Center of gravity range.

The end plates or dynamic dihedrals, located on each end of the horizontal stabilizer, are
shaped, flat honeycomb panels with chem milled skins and fiberglass leading edge and tips.
They are attached to the ends of the stabilizer by means of .§Ingle brackets and are offset 5
degrees to the left of centerline·ta provide a 0 degree angle of incidence to the airflow over
the tailboom to improve dihedral (roll) stability of the aircraft in forward flight.

Using main rotor boot tie-down, and tail rotor strap, secure main and tail rotor blades as
necessary. Attach suitable hoisting cable and T1 01897 lifting eye clevis to the eye provided
on the main rotor mast nut. Connect a suitable hoist and take up slack. Station a person
at tail skid to steady helicopter when hoisting. If lifting of helicopter will be beyond arms
reach from ground, secure a safety rope to tail skid. Hoist helicopter slowly with a constant
lifting force.

JACKING
Secure main rotor blades with main rotor boot tie-down. Position three hydraulic jacks under
jack fittings, and simultaneously at three positions, jack helicopter up to desired height. Be
careful to keep helicopter level as it is raised to desired height. When lowering helicopters,
slowly and carefully lower the three jacks simultaneously.

LEVELING
A level plate is located on the cabin floor at fuselage station 117.70 and buttock line -11 14 (
Level plate location is approximately 4.0 inches forward of the aft. seat and left of the
h~licopter center line. The helicopter is level when the bubble in spirit level is centeredfore~

TIE-DOWN AND PARKING
Normal Conditions - When winds are expected up to 50 knots, the tail rotor and main rotor
should be secured with the appropriate straps. The pitot tube, engine exhaust, and inlet
covers should be installed; and all electrical switches should be in the off position.

Turbulent Conditions - When winds are expected above 50 knots, aircraft should face the
direction in which the highest winds are e.xpected. Secure helicopter to ramp tie-d.own
fittings. Secure main and tail fotor with appropriate straps. Install pitot tube, engine inlet,
and exhaust covers. Fuel aircraft to maximum capacity, and secure all loose equipment
which might be blown by high winds.

EXTERNAL POWER

External power may be supplied to the helicopter by means of receptacle located on lower
front section of fuselage. For external power application, it is recommended that a source
of 28.5 volts be regulated from 350 to 450 amps.

WEIGHT AND BALANCE
Why is weight and balance important? SAFETY. To insure that complete flight control
capability is achieved.

There are two basic types of weight and balance:

1. Gross Weight and Balance - The responsibiiity of the pilot in command to ensure the
operating loads are distributed in a manner that will not exceed the most forward and
most aft aliowable limits specified in the Flight Manual. It is also the pilot's
responsibility to insure the maximum gross weight of the aircraft is not exceeded.

2. Empty Weight and Balance - The responsibility of maintenance to ensure and adjust
with ballast, if necessary, the Center of Gravity leg). Obtaining correct Empty Weight
and Balance will give the pilot the ability to load the aircraft as need be and to remain
within the allowable Max Gross weight limits specified in the flight manual.

With respect to maintenance, four basic and necessary functions to check or correct Empty
Weight and Balance:

• Determine the EMPTY WEIGHT of the aircraft.

• Determine WHERE the center of gravity (cg) is located.

• Compare the center of gravity (cg) to the allowable limits specified in the maintenance
manual.

• Correct the empty weight center of gravity using ballast if it is not within allowable
limits.

When must an Empty Weight and Balance calculation be done?

• Whenever a modification or alteration affects the weight of the aircraft.

• Depending on the local Airworthiness Authority.

NOTES

4-2
DEFINITIONS
Reference Datum Line, Station "0", is located one inch forward of the nose of the aircraft.
This is the point where the various locations or arms will originate.

Center of gravity (cg) - An imaginary vertical line through which the helicopter could be
balanced.

A - Forward Arm - Forward point where the aircraft will be jacked/weighed, Station 55.16.

B - Aft Arm - Aft point where the aircraft will be jacked/weighted, Station 204.92 .
..
C - Forward Scale reading (net). Note: there are two forward jacking points, and both are
located at the same arm (station 55.1"6). When calculating Empty Weight and Balance, the
two scale readings will be added together to acquire one (1) forward weight and one (1) arm
(station 55.16)

D - Aft scale reading (net)

AC - Forward Moment (A x C) equals the forward moment (forward arm x forward weight).

BD - Aft Moment (B x D) equals the aft moment (aft anTi x aft weight).

C + D equals the total net weight. Remember the two forward scale reading were added
together to obtain "CO Forward Scale Reading.

Ballast - lead plates of various weights to be removed or installed accordingly to achieve


balanc"e within allowable limits.

Tare weight - If using scales other than Load Cells, this would be the weight of the jacks
on the scales. Also, this weight must be subtracted" from actual weight to obtain "NET
WEIGHT".

When performing physical weighing to calculate the Empty Weight and Balance:

1. Transmission oil, hydraulic oil, and tail rotor gearbox cil serviced to normal operating
levels.

2. Engine oil drained to "undrainable level."

a. MIL-7808 1 .4 Ibs. at station 192

3. Fuel drained to "unusable level."

a. jp-4 7.3 Ibs. at station 94


b. jp-5 7.6 Ibs. at station 94

CALCULATING EMPTY WEIGHT AND BALANCE:

1. Weights and moments can be added but the arms cannot.

2. After removing or installing equipment in aircraft, amend equipment list in flight manual.

NOTE

If the empty weight of aircraft exceeds chart 12,900 Ibs.l. The chart cannot be
extended. Refer to the gross weight center of gravity chart in the applicable flight
manual regarding limits for the forward and aft longitudinal center of gravity at any
specific weight.

NOTE

If the empty weight exceeds the maximum empty weight as set out in the chart, the
helicopter should be placarded to advise the pilot that the most forward and most aft
longitudinal center of gravity for flight conditions should be calculated.

NOTE

Never allow both forward and mid tailboom ballast to be installed at same time.

MAIN ROTOR HUB AND BLADES
The main rotor assembly is a two blade, semirigid, underslung hub with metal blades. The
hub assembly is attached to the mast by means of a splined trunnion which also functions
as the rotor flapping axis. The flapping bearings are grease lubricated roller bearings which
assemble into the pillow block housing. The pillow block housing assembly is attached to .
the yoke and provides hub centering provisions in conjunction with the trunni<>n. The yoke
serves as this pitch change axis C!l)d the grips are attached to the yoke with tension-torsion
~trap assemblies. The straps transfer the centrifugal foads.from the blades to the yoke and
assist to counteract the aerodynamic forces. The pitch change bearings are housed in the_
grips and are grease lubricated. The change in blade pitch angle is accomplished by rotating
the grips on the yoke with an input at the pitch horns. The blades are attached to the grips
by means of bolts with hollow shanks that are used to install weights for static balance of'·
the hub and blade assembly. Biade alignment is accomplished by adjustment of blade latches
which engage the root end of the blade.

hollow spindles which are preconed 2.5 degrees to relieve forces within the hub assembly.
The yoke is a conditional retirement item.

MAIN ROTOR TRUNNION

The trunnion allows the hub to flap on the mast, and it attaches the main rotor hub assembly
to the mast. The trunnion is master splined and has a 2,400 hour retirement interval. he :r
trunnion is centered in the yoke to minimize any lateral vibrations.

MAIN ROTOR GRIP


\
The grip assembly is supported by two bearings on the yoke. It is secured to the yoke by \
,~

. a latch bolt passing through the grip and the tension torsion strap. The grip with the aid of
the blade bolt secures the blade to the hub assembly. The excluder assembly is also housed
in the grip.

FLAP RESTRAINT
The flap restraint, mounted on the main rotor trunnion, is designed to limit the main rotor
flapping to 6 degrees up and down when engaged (12 degree§J:gtal fl_ap). The flap restraint
arms should disengage betweef] 25 and 3J--percent Nr (Rotor rpm) to allow the rotor to flap
the full amount of travel which is 8.5 degrees up and down 07 degrees total flap).

Blade alignment will position the blades 180 degrees from each other. Alignment is perform-
ed by using the blade bolts and the rivet head on the tip cap as references points. The
blades will be swept by either tightening or loosening the blade bolt latch nuts. Once
,
alignment is establish, never sweep a blade forward of the alignment point.

AUTOROTA TION

Proper autorotation is essential to the successful accomplishment of emergency landings.


At low gross weights and/or density altitudes, there is a tendency for the rotor to
un'derspeed; and at high gross weights and/or density altitudes, the tendency is to over-
speed. The main rotor auto rotatIon rpm adjustment chart will. guide the operator to set the
autorotation rpm according to prevailing conditions. Once set, this rpm will remain within
limits throughout the gross weight and density altitude range.

TRANSMISSION GEAR REDUCTION RATIO
The transmission provides a two-stage reduction of 15.23 to 1.0 (6,016 to 395 rpm). The
first stage is the spiral bevel gear arrangement with a 3.26 to 1.0 reduction. The second
stage is obtained by means of a planetary gear train that provides a 4.67 to 1.0 reduction.
The main input spiral bevel gear shaft also drives the accessor.v. gear at a 1 A2 to 1.0 (6,016
to 4,200). The accessory gear in turn drives the transmission oil pump, main rotor
tachometer generator, and the hydraulic pump.

TYPES OF ElASTOMERIC BEARINGS
An elastomeric bearing is a component in which elastomer is used as a lubricant and as a
structural material between two or more moving surfaces. The word elastomer is used
instead of rubber since the material is either a synthetic, a natural rubber or a blend of natural
rubber and synthetics. Elastomeric bearings are fail-safe and capable of taking large, multi-
directional, repeated loads and alternating motion concurrently.

Regardless of the material used, the elastomer is usually formed in thin layers and bonded
to alternating layers of thin metal called shims and to the attaching major metal components.
These major metal components may be considered the bearing races. One of the races
(either the inner or outer race) will be attached to a stationary part and the other race to the
torsional or axial (or combination oftorsional or axial) motion part. The movement within the
bearing will take place between the races and through the elastomer and shims.

There are five basic types of elastomeric bearings. The first type is the Conventional Thrust
Bearing designed to carry high axial loads in compression while accommodating torsional
motions through shear loading of the elastomer. The second type is the Spherical Thrust
Bearing which. permits motion around three mutually perpendicular axes through shear
loading while high loads are carried axially in compression. The third type is the
Radial-Journal Bearing. It carries high radial loads while accommodating torsional and axial
motions in the shear mode. The fourth type is the Rod-End Bearing. It carries high radial
loads while accommodating motions in the torsional and misalignment directions as well as
some axial motions depending on the actual shim geometry. The fifth configuration involves
the Conical Bearing which carry higb loads in both the axial and radial directions while
accommodating torsional motions. Special variations or combinations of any of the above
basic configurations can be incorporated into one bearing depending on need.

General elastomeric bearing failure could be described as gradual crumbling around the
circumference, beginning in the inner most layer of the upper quadrant on the drive side with
uniform progressive deterioration (black eraser dust on surfaces followed by strings on
leading load surface. Fretting, rubbing of metal shims (red dust, steel shims or black dust,
aluminum shims) will occur as the elastomer fails between the shims. A good "rule of
thumb" Ls that the beginnings of measurable elastomer deterioration occur at the bearing'~
half-life. Presence of "eraser dust" or "elastomer strings" is a normal failure mode.

Elastomeric Bearing Inspection Terminology:

1. Sheeting . . . . . Layer of elastomer protruding from bearing.


2. Crumbling. . . . . Small particles of elastomer separating from bearing_
3. Delamination. . . . Bond line failure. use strong light to inspect.
4. Extruding. . . . . String like elastomer being produced by the bearing.

Refer to the Standard Practices Manual, Maintenance Manual or CR&O for cleaning,
inspection, removal or installation of elastomeric bearings.

TRANSMISSION MOUNT - NODAL BEAM
The transmission, mast, and the main rotor hub and blade assembly are supported by and
isolated from the fuselage by the transmission mounts (Nodal Beam) and the transmission
restraint. This is accomplished through the use of four link attachments (two spindle and
two restraint attachments) and two stop mounts bolted to the;transmission. Connected to
these spindle link attachments are four link assemblies that incorporate elastomeric bearings
and are secured to the four support assemblies and flexure assemblies. ~1§Q,_tb.ese_s1lp~rt
assemblies, bolted to the cabin roof shell and beam, contain elastomeric bearing and bushing
m~rni>~i-:S:t9~{Sol?.:I:~ arld to'balance vibration inputs from the rotor into the flexure assemblies,
that function as the primary vibration isolating components in order to provide a vibration
free ride throughout the helicopter speed range.

The transmission restraint limits movement of the transmission through the use of an
elastomeric bearing and bushing member that is secured to the transmission restraint
support. This support is bolted to the cabin roof shell and cabin roof beam along with two
drag pins. The two stop mounts, bolted to the transmission, are installed over the drag pins.
The up stops, mounted on the drag pins, restrict the up movement of the transmission and
all oscillatory movement.

Tuning weights are also bolted to the arm and flexure assemblies to provide_J()rJ.he fine
tun.irJg and balan~_Q.f.t.l1e tr.<'l.rt..s_missiClI1 rl1~lJn_ti.ngsystElrn.

The arm and flexure assembly is the primary Nodal Beam component used to isolate main
rotor and transmission vibrations from the fuselage. The Nodal Beam installation develops
a standing wave form to reduce fuselage vibrations throughout the helicopter speed range
to belo)/V the level of perception. The aluminum alloy arm assemblies are bushing mounted
to. the forward and aft support assemblies. The flexure assembly, located between the tlillQ
arm assemblies, consists of a laminated elastomer flexJI[e, shims, and shear pads bonded
into metal brackets. Telfurium lead tuning weights' are located on the end of the arm
assemblies, adjacent to the flexure, to provide a method for tuning the Nodal Beam system .

TRANSMISSION RESTRAiNT
The transmission restraint is an elastomeric spring assembly enclosed in a steel housing. It
is secured in an isolation support that is mounted to the cabin roof beam; and it acts to limit
both fore, aft, and later,,1 transmission movement. The forward arms of the restraint contain
teflon lined spherical bearings that are attached to the stop mounts which are secured to the
transmission. The transmission is further restrained through the stop mounts by the up stops
and drag pins.

STOP MOUNTS

The steel stop mounts are attached to the lower aft portion of the transmission lower case
to limit vertical and oscillatory movement of the transmission.

DRAG PINS AND UP STOPS

Thetwo steel drag pins are attached to the upper cabin roof shell and cabin roof beam to
limit the oscillatory movement of the transmission through the stop mounts. Vertical
restraint is limited by.the up stops which consist of bonded upper and lower disc in contact
with the stop mounts.

TRANSMISSION OIL FITTINGS

Transmission oil fittings consist of unions, plugs, a reducer, and attaching oil hoses or tube
assemblies to the transmission and oil filter housing.

OIL SYSTEM HOSES AND TUBE ASSEMBLIES

The transmission oil system hose and assemblies comprise the distribution system. The tube
assemblies have sleeves and fittings which are retained by flares on tubes.

BLEEDING TRANSMISSION OIL PRESSURE LINES

Any time transmission oil pressure line is disconnected between the transmission and the
transmission oil pressure indicator, the system should be bled. This will ensure a positive
indication of oil pressure on starts and eliminate sluggish or erratic operation.

TRANSMISSION Oil PRESSURE SWITCH

The transmission oi,1 pressure switch, located below the instrument panel, is connected into
the transmission oil pressure indicator 0;,1 I;"e. During normal operation, the oil pressure
switch contacts open at 38 si maximum .01'; increasing oil pressure and the caution light is
,extingyished. The switch contacts c1os~.at~ 2 psi on decreasing oil pressure to cause
the illumination of the TRANS OIL PRE"'~C':ution hght segment on the pilot's instrument
panel.

TRANSMISSION Oil SYSTEM SCHEMATIC
The lubrication system includes an oil pump, Peessure regulating valve, oil cooler, filter
element, and spray oil jets No.1 and No.2. The oil pump, driven by the accessory gear, is
a constant volume type that delivers oil under pressure through an external line to the oil
filter and housing assembly, and the oil cooler. From thec;ooler it returns to the main
transmission and spray jets to lubricate the internal parts. An oil level sight gage is located
on the right side of main transmission lower case where it can be easily inspected. A non-
vented filler. cap is located on the main transmission top case.

The transmission oil system also provides lubrication for the freewheeling assembly mounted
in the engine accessory gearcase. ~ pressure to lubricate the freewheeling assembly and
for pressure indications in the transmission oil pressure gage, located in the instrument panel,
is taken from a tee fitting installed in the pressure lint(

Oil temperature indications are provided from an oil temperature bulb located in the outlet
side of the oil filter housing and a high oil temperature switch which is connected to TRANS
Oil TEMP caution segment. The TRANS Oil PRESS caution segment light is connected to
the transmission oil pressure switch below and forward of the instrument panel.

MAIN DRIVE SHAFT
The engine to transmission Kaflex drive shaft provides a flexible drive connection between
the freewheeling unit and the transmission. This flexible shaft allows smooth transfer of
torque even though the transmission and freewheeling units are not always in perfect
alignment.

Flexibility of the shaft is provided by rectangular plates, ~ in each coupling. Each plate
flexes providing both a.o.g.uJ.<lLmi.~a.Ij9.iJ.ment and lengtb.,gba!=lg~s. to accommodate movement
of the transmission on its mounts. Each coupling can be considered a trusswork in which
:t,orgue loads are carried as axial loads in straight.membe(§ of each plate.

A fail-safe feature exists which enables uninterrupted drive of the shaft after a failure has
occurred in one of the dual load paths provided by the plate couplings. During normal opera-
tion, a radial clearance exists between the center shaft internal diameter and the internal
protruding hub of the end fitting. ,Upon the unlikely event of a plate failure, the center shaft
shifts to contacts the hub surface to restore hub balance and stable operation. The off-
center operation of the center shaft is sufficient to cause a noticeable unbalance to signal
'that a partial failure has .occurred and the fail-safe mode is in operation with the last remain-
ing load path.

CAUTION
...
.
,~ ~
The drive shaft is not to be dissembled. Disassembly or disturbing fasteners requires
replacement.

The freewheeling unit is mounted within the engine accessory gearbox. Engine power is
directed from the power take-off gear· shaft to splines on the outer race shaft of the
freewheeling unit. A sprag clutch assembly within the freewheeling unit engages the outer
race shaft with the inner shaft: Power is ~ directed from the main output adapter on the
freewheeling unit through the main drive shaft to the transmission. Simultaneously, engine
power is dire.c_te.d from the tail rotor output adapter along the taj\.r9J:pr drive shafts to the tail
/' rotor_control~!:5!er!1. - . ........ - -

During auto··otation the sprag clutch assembly will dJsengage the outer race sb.aftJrom the
inner shaft. This allows the rotor system, transmission, transmission accessories, free-
wheelinginner shaft, and tail rotor drives system to operate independently of the engine.

The freewheeling unit is lubricated with oil supplied from the transmission. This design
allo~s for continuous lubrication to the freewheeling unit in case of engine failure i.e., engine
oil pressure loss. .

T All ROTOR DRIVE SHAFTS
The tail rotor drive shaft consists of the forward short shaft, oil cooler blower shaft, aft short
shaft, and tail rotor drive shaft segments. Steel laminated flexible couplings requiring no
lubrication are used to connect the shaft sections and the tail rotor gearbox.

FORWARD AND AFT SHORT SHAFTS

The forward and aft short shafts are located on either side of the oil cooler blower assembly.
The forward short shaft is constructed of steel- and is connected to the aft end of the
freewheeling assembly and the forward end of the oil cooler blower shaft by means of
splined adapters. The aft short shaft is constructed of aluminum alloy and is connected to
the aft end of the oil cooler blower shaft by means of a splined adapter and to the first tail
rotor drive shaft segment.

CAUTION

After a disc pack has been run on a helicopter, disc should not be changed from original
pack, except as noted in the maintenance manual.

The grain of each disc runs parallel to the indexing flat edges. When assembling disc
pack, it is necessary to alternate indexing flats to obtain alternate grain direction. Disc
should not be changed from original pack, except as noted in the maintenance manual.

Beveled washers must be installed' with rounded edge side contacting disc packs and
quantities must be equal at 180 degree position.

Only the grip portion !unthreadedl.of bolts is permitted to contact disc packs and bolt
lengths must be equal at 180 degree positions.

SEGMENTED TAil ROTOR DRIVE SHAFTS
The segmented tail rotor drive shaft consists of five s~_gmE!l1ts and extends along the top of
the tailboom. Each segment of the drive system is identical and interchangeable with each
other.

CAUTION

After a disc pack has been run on a helicopter, discs should not be changed from original
pack, except as noted in the maintenance manual.

NOTE

New bearings will normally run warm for the first 20 hours of operation. If a rough
bearing is found, but there is no indication of overheating, fly helicopter for an.o.!.b.eL..2..!c:>
20 hours and check bearing again for roughness. Also check proper alignment of the
bearing to the shaft by rotating the shaft and checking for wobble of the hanger at the
attaching bracket, with screws removed.

If there is any question of bearing overheating, check bearing operating temperature by the
use of a cold__c.)!.liJtd.l1! p~()_l;>~. The maximum recommended operating temperature is 1.35 o~
(85°.f). A new bearing may run to.275°F (135°C) for the initial 15 to 20 hours of opera-
tion. If bearing is running hot, inspect at frequent intervals until 20 hours of operation have
- elapsed. If bearing temperature has not stabilized after this time, replace bearing.

CAUTION

After a disc pack has been run on a helicopter, disc should not be changed from original
pack, except as noted in the maintenance manual. The graitl of each disc runs parallel to
the indexing flat edges. When assembling new disc pack, it is necessary to alternate
indexing flats 90 degrees to obtain alternate grain direction (detail c, page 9-14).

Inspect disc packs for cracks, wear, or damage. Old and new discs should not be mixed
together, except that unserviceable discs may be replaced as required. When disc pack is
installed, check for gaps between discs. Gaps of more than 0.005 inch (0.127 mm) are not
acceptable. If any gaps are. excessive, loosen bolts and retorque per instructions in the
maintenance manual. Recheck for gaps. When discs are in an assembly, the thickness is
0.115 to 0.127 inch (2.92 to 3.22 mm). The disc packs vary between 9 to a maximum of
12 plates. Thickness of each plate varies between 0.010 to 0.014 inch (0.254 to 0.355
mm).

CAUTION

Beveled washers must be installed with rounded edge side contacting disc packs and
quantities must be equal at 180 degree positions.

Only the grip portion (unthreaded) of bolts is permitted to contact disc packs and bolt
lengths must be equal at 180 degree positions.

Inspect all disc packs for distortion resulting in gaps between the individual discs. If any
gaps are detected by visual examination, measure gaps with a feeler gauge. Use.caut.ion arid
avoid making gaps wider with the fe.eler gauge. Maximum allowable gap is 0.005 inch
(G. 127 mm). If any gaps are found"which exceed this limit, loosen ·bolts and 'torque per
instructions in the maintenance manual. Check gaps. If gaps still exceed limit, replace disc
pack (14).

Install two bushings (22) into hanger (9) and insert first tail rotor drive shaft segment (1) in
hanger bracket on top of tailboom. Use suitable support to hold aft section of tail rotor drive
shaft segment at approximate alignment.

Install two screws (20) with head forward through hanger bracket and hanger (9) with two
aluminum washers (17) between aft end of hangers and hanger brackets. Install aluminum
washers (191. and.nuts(18)... T.orque.nuts (.18) 30 to 40inch.pounds (3.39 to 4.52 newton-
meters) .

NOTE

Additional aluminum washers may be used to ensure correct nut and cotter pin
engagement.

SEGMENTED TAil ROTOR DRIVE SHAFTS (Cont)

WARNING

Ensure only spacers (24) measuring 0.545 To 0.550 inch (13.8 To 14.0 mm) in length
from flanged end are used in five bearing hangers (9) (detall e).

Do not grasp tail rotor drive shaft segments during ground run or rotor coast down.

Prepare helicopter for ground run and accomplish hanger bearing centering as followS:

CAUTION

Do not exceed l-minute run-up or bearings may spin excessively in hangers.

Prior to run-up, lubricate bearings until grease purges past seals. loosen hanger clamping
nuts (25) until all preload is removed from springs (23) and springs can be turned, by hand;
then using nonsharp tool in split-line of hanger, pry open slightly and move bearing slightly,
by hand, to ensure freedom. Remove tool from hanger. Run-up helicopter to 60 to 62 per-
cent rotor rpm for 45 seconds to 1 minute. Start timing when rotor starts turning. Shut heli-
copter down and torque nuts (25) 50 to 70 inch-pounds (5.65 to 7.91 newton-meters).
Wipe off any grease from outside of bearing.

Ground run helicopter for 15 minutes. Check hanger bearings in first, second, third, fourth
and fifth tail rotor drive shaft segment (1,2,3,4, and 5) for signs of overheating. Maximum
recommended bearing operating temperature is 185°F (85°C). A new bearing may run
275 ° F (135°CI for the initial 15 to 20 hours of operation. If bearings are running hot,
inspectat frequent intervals until 20 hours of operation have elapsed. If bearing operating
·temperature has not stabilized after this time, replace bearing.

NOTE

A cold cylinder probe may be used to obtain a precise measurement of bearing operating
temperature.

TAIL ROTOR HUB AND BLADE ASSEMBLY
The tail rotor assembly, consisting of a hub and two blades, is mounted to the tail rotor
gearbox shaft by means of a splined trunnion that is mounted on bearings in the hub to
provide a flapping axis for the assembly. The yoke of the hub is made with a four degree
twist in each tang to provide additional tail rotqr thrust for hl9:b altitude performance.. The
spherical bearings, installed in the blades bn the pitch change axis permit, pitch change.

- The tail rotor hub and blades counteracts the torque of the main rotor, and the pitch in the
tail rotor blades is varied by means of the tail rotor control system. The tail rotor is mounted
on the left side of the tailboom, and it rotates at approximately _25§~m.

TAIL ROTOR BLADES - REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
YOKE

The aluminum forged yoke has four steel bushings in each tang.

The proper installation of the tail rotor blade retention bolts is with the heads outboard and
a special washer on both sides against the yoke. Addition washers are used to statically
balance the tail rotor.

When the tail rotor hub and blade assembly is installed, the data plate on the yoke shall face
outboard and the data plate on tail rotor blades shall face inboard.

PITCH HORN
The aluminum pitch horn must be installed with the stud for the pitch link on the leading
edge side of the blade.

TAIL ROTOR BlADE

The metal tail rotor blade assembly consists of a stainless steel shell reinforced with a
honeycomb filler and a stainless steel leading edge abrasive strip. Two sphericai-bearings
are installed in an aluminum alloy retention block to provide for pitch change movement of
the blade in the tail rotor hub. (/ ".' " ' J , ~ .. , ''''f

TAIL ROTOR HUB AND BLADES - STATIC BALANCING
Set up of balancer for the tail rotor requires that the spacer be installed between the mandrel
and ball bearing to increase sensitivity of balancer for tail rotor.

It is necessary to balance and to index all parts of tools to eac;h other prior to installing the
tail rotor on the balancer.

NOTE

Adjustment of c:hordwise balanc~Lwili also affect s.e.anwise balance. If necessary,


temporarily place washers on yo.ke to balance spanwise so that accurate .chordwise
readings may be obtained.

Use NAS1304-2H through NAS1304-8H bolts as required to secure weight/washer


combinations. Ensure a minimum of 0.250 inch thread engagement of bolt.

Balance assembly spanwise by using combinations of AN960-616, AN960-616L, AN970-6


and MS9482-12, washers on tail rotor blade bolts. As a minimum, one MS9482-12 washer
must be used under head of each bolt and nut.

CYCliC CONTROLS
The cyclic controls consist of a control stick, torque tube, yoke, hydraulic servo actuators,
control tubes, and bell cranks. Movement of the control stick is transmitted through linkage
and the hydraulic servo actuators to the swashplate where the rotating controls to the main
rotor are activated. Servo actuators are incorporated to reduce:the effort required for control
and to reduce main rotor feedback forces.

CYCLIC STiCK AND TORQUE TUBE


The cyclic extends upward and forward from the front of the pilot's seat. Switches are
installed on the grip for the.intercom system and radio.:.. The torque tube connects to the
cyclic stick support and provides a mounting point for the elevator controls.

HYDRAULIC SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The hydraulic system provides fluid to operate the cyclic and collective flight control servo
actuators.

Operation of the system is electrically controlled by means of the hydraulic system switch.
When the hydraulic system solenoid is de-energized (switch on), the pressurized hydraulic
fluid flows to the three servo actuators. When it is energized (switch off), the pressurized
hydraulic fluid flows to the reservoir and bypasses the three servo actuators. In case of a
total electrical failure, the system is fail-safe O~. Hydraulic fluid is MIL-H-5606. There is
no hydraulic pressure indicator in the aircraft. iThe hydraulic system has no cooler, system
is cooled by continuous fluid flow through the 'systeffi./
~
.

Bleeding the hydraulic system may be accomplished by means of a hydraulic test stand or
by helicopter operation.

To bleed the system with a hydraulic test stand, connect stand to helicopter. Set hydraulic
test stand pressure to/! ,000 psi with 2.8 gpm flow. Slowly move pilot's cyclic and
collective controls through full travel. Repeat a minimum of 10 times to bleed air from
system.

To bleed the hydraulic- system during helicopter operation, start aircraft and operate at flight
idle. Slowly move pilot's cyclic and collective controls to allowable limits for ground
operation. Repeat at least 10 times to bleed air from system.

HYDRAULIC SOLENOID AND RELIEF VALVE
The solenoid valve, incorporated in the hydraulic system to turn the system ON and OFF, is
installed forward of the transmission in the center of the work deck area. The solenoid valve
is normally open; and when the HYDR SYSTEM circuit breaker is in and the HYDRAULIC
SYSTEM switch is OFF, electrical power is applied to the solenojd which closes the valve and
removes hydraulic pressure from the three servo actuators

The relief valve, which is installed forward of the transmission in the center work deck area,
is incorporated in the hydraulic system to control excessive system pressure. It is normally
closed; but if system pressure should exceed the normal pressure of 1,000 psi and increase
to 1,225 ... 150 psi, it will open to protect the system from damage.

• J SERVO ACTUATORS

The servo actuators in the cyclic and collective systems incorporate irreversible valves. In
case of hydraulic pressure loss to a servo actuator, the pLuI1ger io ..tbe_s.eque.o.c.e valve is
pushed up by the lower spring and poppet valve; the upper spring holds the valve seatdolr'n.
This action closes the hydraulic return port and maintains .irreversibility independent of
hydraulic system pressure. The pilot is provided with safe control of the helicopter even
though hydraulic pressure is lost.

The sequence valve also serves to rE;lljeveJhermaUlJ:.e>:;su[\3buildup should this occur while
the system is ina_ctive. The sequence valve would normally be closed when system pressure
is less than 100 - 188 psi. If internal pressure builds up, the vaive seat is pushed up
compressing the upper spring. The poppet valve on the lower spring is prevented from
following by an internal obstruction. in the valve.

The differential relief valve serves to relieve pressure buildup which could occur when the
pilot valve is centered with both return ports closed. The system also incorporates a backup
valve which serves to function as an emergency valve in case the normally operated pilot
valve seizes by preventing the loss of control. The valve is preloaded to the center position,
and a force of 30 to 50 pounds shall be required to override the preload force throughout its
stroke in each direction.

COMPRESSOR ASSEMBLY

The compressor assembly is a single stage, single entry centrifugal flow compressor. Its
primary function is to take in ambient air, pressurize the air, and deliver it to the combustion
assembly.
. .
The assembly consists of a front support, shroud housing, diffuser, rear support assembly,
centrifugal impeller , scroll assembly, mount assembly, and bearings. The five struts in the
compressor inlet serve several functions. They both direct and distribute air into the
compressor rotor in an efficient manner. When the anti-ice system is turned on, hot
compressor discharge air is directed through the struts into the compressor inlet to prevent
icing. ~e struts also serve as a passage way to lubricate the number 1 bearinj]

The compressor takes air· from the inlet through the compressor rotor. The rotor vanes
accelerate the air into a decreasing space to increase the air pressure and air temperature. /"
The impeller discharges air into the vanes of the diffuser. The diffuser vanes direct air into
the diffuser scroll. The diffuser scroll collects the compressor outlet flow at a constant
velocity and directs the air into the transfer tubes which direct the air into the combustion
assembly.

COMBUSTION ASSEMBLY
The primary function of the combustion assembly is to mix pressurized air with fuel, then
ignite the mixture. After the ignition process, which cause the gases to expand, they are
directed to the turbine assembly.

The combustion assembly consists of two compressor discharge air tubes, combustion outer
case and a combustion liner. The combustion outer case is tapped with bosses for mounting
two burner drain valves, a fuel nozzle, and one spark ignitor. The burner drain valves thread
into the bosses and will ensure appropriate &aining when the engine is not in operation. The
fuel nozzle and spark ignitor bosses are on the rear and extend into the center of the com-
bustion liner. \The fuel nozzle positions and supports the.aft end of the combustion liner, and
the spark ignitors center the combustion liner in the outer case:! The combustion outer
casing is flanged on the front for mounting the combustion assel'l4bly to the gas producer
turbine support. The combustion liner must provide for rapid mixing of fuel and air, it must
control the flame length and position to ensure that the flame does not contact any metallic
surface. The two air discharge tubes form ducts that transfers compressor discharge air'
from the scroll to the outer combustion case where it is directed to the combustion liner,
Approximately 75% of the air entering the combustion assembly is used'for cooling, while
the remaining 25% is used for combustion.

TURBINE ASSEMBLY
The basic function of the turbine assembly is to take the energy (expanding gases) developed
in the combustion assembly and direct it over the two stage gas producer, two stage power
turbine wheels, and to convert the expanding gas energy into shah horsepower.

This turbine assembly consists of the gas producer turbine support assembly, gas producer
turbine rotor assembly, power turbine support assembly, power turbine rotor assembly, and
the exhaust collector support assembly.

It incorporates the components necessary for the development of power and the exhausting
of gases. The turbine assembly has a two~stage gas producer turbine and a two-stage power
turbine. Power to drive the compressor rotor is furnished from the gas producer turbine rotor
through a direct drive. The power turbine rotor converts the remaining gas energy into
power which is delivered into the exhaust collector support.

The gas producer turbine consists of the 1 st and 2nd turbine stages, and the power turbine
consists of the 3rd and 4th turbine stages. The gas producer and power turbine rotors are
not "mechanically" coupled, but they are "gas" coupled, in that the exhausting gases must
flow through the four turbine stages. The power turbine is a "free turbine" since it is free
to rotate at a different speed than the gas producer turbine rotor.

ACCESSORY GEARBOX ASSEMBLY


The basic function of the accessory gearbox is to reduce turbine rotor speeds down to usable
speeds for the output power gearshah, and the various accessories mounted and driven by
the accessory gearbox.

The accessory gearbox is the primary structural member of the engine as.it provides
mounting and support for the compressor and turbine assemblies. The accessory gearbox
contains most of the lubrication system components and incorporates two separate gear
trains. The purpose of the power turbine gear train is to reduce the engine speed from
30,65Q..rpm at the power turbine rotor to 6,016 rpm at the power output shah. The power
turbine gear train incorporates a torquemeter to measure engine output torque. The power
turbine tachometer generator, power turbine governor, and spare drive gearshah are driven
by the power gear train. The gas producer gear train provides drive for the oil pump, fuel
pump, gas producer fuel control, gas producer tachometer generator and starter/generator.
During start, the starter/generator rotates the engine through the gas producer gear train.

ACCESSORY
GEARBOX HOUSING
TORQUE,METER

The torquemeter is incorporated in the accessory gearbox to provide a pressure signal which
is directly proportional to output torque. Pressure in the oil chamber is directed to the
torquemeter pressure sensing port on the front side of the accessory gearbox. The filtered
oil is directed to the aircraft's torquemeter indicator located ()n the instrument panel.

The torque indicator is a "wet" gage that will require bleeding if air enters the system. The
indicator has a green band from 0 to 85% which is continuous operation, a yellow band from
85 to 100% for the 5 minute takeoff range. The indicator also has a red band at 100% for
maximum operation.

For troubleshooting the torque system a direct reading gage can be hooked to the accessory
gearbox. This will eliminate the possibility of an improperly indicating torque indicator.

BLEED VALVE
The compressor bleed air system permits rapid engine response. The system consists of a
bleed control valve located on the front face of the scroll and an inducer bleed manifold
which encases the slotted compressor shroud housing.

The bleed control valve is open during starting and ground idle operation, and it remains open
until a predetermined pressure ratio is obtained. At this pressure ratio, the valve begins to
modulate from open to the closed position. It will be open during the start cycle and ground
idle, will modulate closed during acceleration to full operational speed, and will remain closed
during flight operation speeds. Pressure sensing for bleed control valve operation is within
the valve.

The inducer bleed discharges air to atmosphere at engine idle speed. At higher power
settings, flow changes from bleed to intake air.

assembly, consisting of an oil filter. filter bypass Vq!~, and pressure re.gulatin~lv~, is
located externaily in the upper left-hand §ide of the g.e.2Lbox. [3" check valve, located
between the filter package and the accessory gearbox, prevents oil from draining into the
engine from the aircraft tank when the engine is not in operatii61 Indicating type magnetic
chip detectors (drain plugs) are installed at the bottom of the gearbox and at the engine oil
outlet connection. All engine oil system lines and connections are internal except the
pressure and scavenge lines to the front compressor bearing and to the bearings in the gas
producer and power turbine supports.

The system is designed to furnish adequate lubrication, scavenging, and cooling as needed
to the bearings, splines, and gears regardless of the helicopter attitude or altitude. :Jet
lubrication is provided to all compressor, gas producer turbine, and power turbine roTor

The principal compenents ef the engine fuel system are the fuel pump, gas producer fuel
centro I, pewer turbine geverner, accumulator, and a fuel nozzle.

!The fuel pump assembly incerporates a single gear type pumping element and a bypass
~essure regulating valve. When the engine is In operatlen, the gas producer fuel centrel
bypasses fuel back to. the pump assembly. The regulater valve centrels the bypass fuel
pressure. The aft face of the pump provides a mounting pad for the gas producer fuel

An accumulator is lecated in the pneumatic line between the pewer turbine geverner and the
geverner reset sectien ef the gas producer fuel centrel. It is used to. dampen pressure signals
from the pewer turbine geverner to. the fuel centrol due to. torsienal vibratiens encountered
frem the retor system.

The fl.!el nezzle has a single entry and a dual eutlet orifice. This nozzle provides a finely
atomized spray of fuel at all flow conditiens that are required by the engine. It is designed
to. provide an eptimum spray angle fer starting the engine, plus even distributien of fuel into
the combustion liner, and it is equipped with a filter to minimize the possibility of

Gas producer speed levels are established by the actien ef the pewer turbine fuel gevernor,
which senses power turbine speed. The power turbine speed is selected by the eperater,
and the pewer required to maintain this speed is automatically maintained by pewer turbine

GAS PRODUCER CONTROLS
The fuel control system components are calibrated to exacting requirements at the time of
manufacture. Many of the adjustments made at that time can only be made on special test
equipment and are not designed to be made in the field. The following adjustments and
procedures can normally be made in the field.

CAUTION

The following adjustments and procedures are the only ones normally required with the
fue! control and govenor installed on the engine.

START DERICHMENT ADJUSTMENT

An adjustment is provided on the start derichment device to increase or decrease the flow
during the start range. Loosen locknut so that the clamp and pointer can be turned. A
clockwise adjustment will increase the flow while the counterclockwise a·djustment will
decreaseth·~ flo~in ·thestartingrange. After
an adjustment has been made, the locknut
shoulcnJe torqued to 20-25 inch pounds and resafety wired.

IDLE SPEED ADJUSTMENT

Idle speed is set on the fuel coritrol. Turn adjusting screw clockwise to increase N 1 and
counterclockwise to decrease Nl as viewed from the head of the screw; 1/8 turn willCFi'iinge
RPM approximately five percent Nl.

ACCELERATION ADJUSTMENT

An adjustment is provided on the fuel control to increase or decrease the flow during
acceleration. If this adjustment is required, it is only necessary to turn the adjustment
clockwise to increase and counterclockwise to decrease the fuel floWL~lick of the
adjustment changes the fuel flow approximately one pound per hour. Onlyoneci1CK of the
adjustment should be used at a time to preclude the possibility of hot starts or compressor
stalling.'] .

N2 DROOP COMPENSATOR CONTROLS
The droop compensator control system consists of a mechanical linkage between an idler in
the collective system and a lever mounted on the power turbine governor shaft. Movement
of the collective stick results in a repositioning of the governor shaft. This action provides
droop compensation to prevent rpm variations as power chaf"lges are made. The system
incorporates a linear actuator which is controlled electrically by a GOVernor rpm
INCrease/DECRease switch mounted on the collective stick.

DROOP COMPENSATOR

The droop compensator maintains N2 engine rpm as power demand is increased. It is a


direct mechanical linkage between the collective stick and the speed selector lever on the N2
governor and will maintain N2 rpm when properly rigged.

Droop is defined as the speed change in N2 engine rpm as power is increased from a no load
condition. It is a characteristic designed into the governor system to prevent instability from
developing as engine output is increased. Without this charac-teristic, N1 speed would
overshoot or hunt the value necessary to satisfy the new power condition. If N2 is allowed
to droop other than momentarily, the reduction in rotor speed could become critical.

POWER ASSURANCE CHECK
A Power assurance check chart is provided for the Allison model 250-C30P engine. This
chart indicates the minimum percent torque that must be available from an engine meeting
minimum Allison specification. The engine must develop these values in order to meet
performance data contained in this flight manual. This chart cafl also be used to periodically
monitor engine performance.

To perform a power assurance check, turn off all sources of bleed air to include ENGINE
ANTI-ICING. Establish level flight at an AiRSPEED of 85 to 105 KIAS (98 to 121 MPH) or
VNE , whichever is lower.

NOTE

For altitudes above approximately 8,000 feet, it may be desirable to check engine power
during IGE hover prior to takeoff. Power assurance check chart can be used to accomplish
this procedure. IGE hover installation losses require as much as 2% more power than in
. flight. Therefore, hover power check may be 2% below that shoWnon-figure 12-2, and
still achieve predicted flight manual performance.

Record following information from cockpit instruments:

EXAMPLE:

Hp 12,000 feet
OAT 25°C
TOT 720°C
TORQUE Actual reading

SOLUTION:

Enter Power assurance check chart at observed OAT (25°C), proceed vertically to
intersect indicated TOT (720°C), follow horizontally to intersect Hp (12,000 feet), then
drop vertically to read minimum torque available (65%).

If cruise power check cannot be accomplished below helicopter 75% torque and 84 KIAS (97
MPH) V NE limitation, perform check at a higher altitude or in a stabilized 57 KIAS{66 MPH)
climb and subtract 1 % from chart percent torque reading. For previous example, cha:1:
percent torque would become 64%.

If actual torque indication is the same or greater than required chart torque, engine power
equals or exceeds minimum performance specification; and performance data contained
in this manual can be achieved.

If actual torque indication is less than required chart torque, engine power is less than
minimum specification; and all performance data contained in this manual cannot be
achieved. Refer to appropriate maintenance manual to determine cause of low power.

FUEL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION ! d'Y-[f!.t.
..v
The fuel system consists of three interconnected ibladder type fuel cells! Two cells are
located below the middle passenger seats, and the aft cell is located under and behind the
aft passenger seats. Fuel from the two forward cells is transferred aft to the rear cell
through a dual element ejector pump, located between and connected to both forward cells.
All three cells are externally vented overboard through a common line.l}ach forward cell has
a fuel flow switch located outside the cell and adjacent to the ejector pu~ All three cells
have a sump iocated on the bottom of the cell. Two fuel boost pumps are mounted on the
fuel cell sump. A fuel quantity transmitter is mounted to the upper aft probe and is electrical-
ly connected to all three fuel quantity p-robes.llhe aftfuerceTlsump is equipped with a low
level fuel switch that is connected to a fuel low light located on the caution panel. it is also
equipped with a fuel sump drain solenoid valve]
---'

When servicing the fuel system, fuel enters the main cell. At approximately 40 gallons the
fuel level reaches the inlet to the interconnect tube. Fuel then gravity flows through the tube
to fill both forward cells which are also interconnected. Fuel capacity is measured the fuel
quantity transmitter and probes in the aft cell and in the forward left cell.

During operation of the dual element fuel boost pumps, fuel is supplied to the fuel manifold
which routes the fuel flow for engine operation and fuel transfer. The f!Jel pressure
transducer transmits the system pressure indication to the cockpit gauge. The shutoff valve
provides the ability to shut off the fuel supply in the event of an emergency. The airframe
mounted fuel filter provides 10 micron fuel filtration.

The dual manifold also controls fuel flow for t.@D.SieLS.Ystem operatio.[l through the in-line
filters, check valves, flow switches and dual element ejector pump. The in-line filters
. prec.lude blockage of the flow switches, and the check valves close off the pressure line in
the event a boost pump fails or is turned off. The flow switches activate the I 18 fpeJ...p..l.Jll1R
caution lights,. and the c:!.ual element ejector pump transfers fuel from the left/right forward
fuel cells to the aft fuel cell by the pressure from the boost pump.

The low level switch activates the low level caution light when fuel capacity in the aft cell
is reduced to approximately 95 to 75 pounds. All cells are interconnected to an overboard
vent line.

AFT FUEL CELL

Th~ ninety g.allon capacity aft fuel cell is constructed of a nonself-sealing, crash resistant,
rubberized fabric; and it is located below and aft of the rear passenger seat. Mounted on a
sump plate in the bottom of the cell are two electrically operated fuel boost pumps, an
electrically operated sump drain, two seal drains, and a low level switch. T)NO fuel quantity
probes are also installed in the aft fuel cell. The lower fuel probe is located in the lower left
hand area of the cell; mounted from the top just below the left hand passenger seat cushion.
The upper fuel probe is located in the upper left hand area of the fuel cell; mounted from the
top just aft of the left hand passengers' hat rack area . .A. fuel fiiler cap is located on the right
,-'- side of the helicopter just aft of the passenger door.

FUEL PRESSURE TRANSDUCER AND FUel SHUTOFF VALVE

The fuel pressure transducer provides a means to monitor fuel pressure in the system, and
it is located beside the fuel shutoff valve. The fuel shutoff valve is located above the aft fuel
cell servicing port and is electrically operated; when the valve is closed, all fuel flow to the
engine will stop.

FUEL QUANTITY PROBES

The forward fuel quantity probe is one of three probes used to monitor the fuel level. The
forward fuel quantity probe is electrically connected to the two probes in the aft fuel cell.
The fuel quantity probe electrical wire is routed from the aft fuel cell through the
interconnect tube to the left forward fuel cell. Readings from the probes are transmitted to
a fuel quantity indicator on the instrument panel. The forward fuel quantity switch in the
cockpit will provide a reading only on the. fuel in the forward cells.

The aft cell contains two fuel quantity probes. The lower probe is mounted from the tog.pf
the lower left hand side of the fuel cell and is electrically connected to the upper probe. @e
upper probe has a transmitter mounted on it, which will transmit fuel quantity indication to
the fuel quantity gaugg

BOOST PUMPS
The electrical fuel boost pumps, both part of the sump assembly and located in the bottom
of the aft cell, transfer fuel from the fuel cell through two check valves in the fuel manifold
to a single line to the engine. Two additional check valves and fuel lines from the manifold
allow the boost pumps to operate the ejector pumps and to transfer fuel from the forward
cells into the aft fuel cell. Boost pump operating pressure is 8 psi to 25 psi, and a minimum
of 8 psi is required for operation. <

Manual, chapter 5)

LOW LEVEL FUEL WARNING SWITCH

The low level fuel warning switch, located in the aft fuel cell, is mounted through the bottom
of the fuel boost pump assembly and is electrically connected to the caution panel.. The
caution light will illuminate when approximately 50 to 75 pounds of fuel remain in the aft
cell.

FUEL SUMP DRAIN

The sump drain valve is located in the fuel boost plate assembly, and it is electrically
operated by means of a drain switch located aft of the right side passenger door. To sump
the fuel cell, both fuel boost pump circuit breakers should be pulled out, the battery switch
should be in the ON position, and the fuel valve should be in the OFF position. Manual
sumps are provided in each forward fuel cell.

CAUTION

Do not use soaps or strong detergents when cleaning fuel cell. Certain powerful
detergents are detrimental to fuel cell. Soaps can react with fuel to form a compound
which tend to plug fuel filters. ffinder no circumstances should methyl-ethyl-ketone or
similar solvents be used for cleaning fuel cel~

FUEL MANIFOLD

Bulletin 206L-84-119, dated 6-7-84.
COMPLIANCE: At customer's option
DESCRIPTION:
Field experience has indicated that some main rotor blades, when
operated as a set, will not permit the 1:1 vertical vibration to
be reduced to a target level of .2 IPS or less.

During normal tracking procedures, the plotted pOints, or "move


line" may not move to the center of the chart but may develop as
a tangent at some IPS circle.
Since outboard tab and pitch link adjustments generate a move
line in the same direction, this point of tangency will be the
best track attainabl~ under the given conditions.

Adjustment of inboard trim tabs will cause the l/Rev. "move line"
to shift toward the main roll and tab "move line". This then
allows the 1/Rev to be reduced using normal techniques. The 206L
series tracking chart illustrated in Figure 2 may be used during
the tracking procedures.
This bulletin provides instructions for adding an inboard trim
tab to main rotor blades, PIN 206-015-001-001/-103 and -105. Main
rotor blade, PIN 206-015-001-107 incorporates an inboard trim tab
and replaces the -101, -103, and -105 blades for future spares

ACCOMPLISHMENT INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Remove the paint finish by sending spanwise with 200


grit abrasive cloth or paper for a distance of 0.25 to
0.50 inch around the perimeter of the area where the new
trim tab will be bonded, (Refer to Figure 1).

2. Clean the area by wiping with a clean cloth dampened


with MEK. Continue wiping with new cloths until surfaces
are completely clean. Final wipe with alcohol to remove
solvent film left by the MEK.

3. Protect surface with wrapping paper and masking tape


until preparations for bonding are complete.

4. Bond new trim tab to main rotor blade as fOllows:

CAUTION
DO NOT CONTAMINATE THE INSIDE ADHESIVE
SURFACE AFTER REMOVING THE PEEL-PLY.
USE CLEAN WHITE CLOTH GLOVES WHILE
HANDLING THE TRIM TAB.

5. Peel the peel-ply fabric from the inner surface of the


trim tab exposing the cured adhesive. Abrade the
adhesive surface lightly with 180 grit abrasive cloth or
paper and wipe with a clean cloth dampened with alcohol.
Repeat with successive clean cloths and alcohol until
the cloth remains clean after wiping. Wipe dry with a
final clean cloth.

6. "Apply ~A934 adhesive to the inside surface of the trim


tab and to the clean mating surface of the blade. Rub
adhesive around on the blade and tab to assure complete
"wetting" of the contact surfaces.

7. Install the trim tab on the blade. The outboard trailing


corner of the tab is to be located at blade station 81.0
(Refer to Figure 1.)
8. Bond the trim tab to the blade using 5 to 30 psi
pressure and cure for 2 hours at 140 degrees to 160
degrees F (60 degrees to 71 degrees C). Wooden blocks
and C-clamps approximately the size of the tabs may be
used as pressure devices. A rubber pad 1/16 to 1/8 inch
thick, of approximately 40 durometer hardness, should be
used between the w60d blocks and tab to evenly
distribute the pressure.
T.B. 206L-~7-142
Page 5 of 9

9. Remove C-clamps and clean up adhesive squeezeout. Wipe


the tab and surrounding area of the blade with clean
cloth dampened with MEK, then wipe dry with a clean
cloth. Fair around the edges of the tab with Hysol 960
smoother.
10. On all bare aluminum surfaces apply chemical film
treatment, brush alodine, or alcoholic-phosphoric
solution in accordance with 206L Maintenance Manual,
Chapter 20.

11. Touch up reworked areas with primer and lacquer,


including the new trim tab, in accordance with 206L,
CRID. Paragraph 65-20.

1. Install Chadwick vibrex equipment in accordance with-


Checklist No. 4300.

2. Hover the ship with tail into the wind.

3. Record magnitude and clock angle of vertical l/Rev.

4. Plot this on the vertical chart. Refer to Figure 4.

5. If the clock angle is below the zero line, bend the


target tab up or the blank tab down approximately 1
degree for every .10 IPS.

6. If the clock angle is above the zero line, bend-the


target tab down or the blank tab up approximately 1
- degree for every • 10 IPS •

7. Use roll for forward flight vertical l/Rev.

Elastomeric bearings are wideJy u..o;ed in


the helicopter industry due to theiT mainte-
nance-free long life~ vibration reducing
characteristics and their gradual fail-safe
modes of degradation. Because these
bearings usually have an on-condition re-

need to understand their degradation
modes in order to increase helicopter re-
liability and readiness, and to reduce di-
rect operating costs.
