4. Use a torch and direct flame down through the center of each bolt
5. Heat the bolt until it expands in length
6. Turn the bolt and remove it
7. Repeat all marriage joint bolts
8. Pack dry ice around the Distance piece
9. Wait ½ hour for the distance piece rabbit fit to reduce in size
10. Lift the Turbine section away from the compressor section
11. Assemble bolt stretching fixture
12. Apply hydraulic jack pressure and pull the compressor bolt to increase in length
13. Loosen the nut from the stretched bolt
14. Release hydraulic jack pressure on the bolt
15. Remove the nut
16. Repeat the process on all 18 compressor thru bolts
17. Remove all compressor thru bolts
18. Use wedges to separate the compressor wheels
19. Clean all parts
20. Dimensionally inspect all parts
21. Run out inspect bladed compressor wheels
22. Check compressor wheel rabbit fits
23. Obtain engineering evaluation of dimensions and approval to proceed
24. Use bushings and re machine as required to repair damaged compressor wheel
rabbit fits.
25. Use balance mandrel to balance each compressor wheel
26. Balance Fwd. Compressor Stub Shaft
27. Take run out inspection of compressor thru bolts
28. Correct Compressor thru bolt run out to be below 0.005”
29. Assemble Fwd. stub shaft on stacking table
30. Stack each Compressor Disc on top of Compressor Stub Shaft
31. Use jack pressure Fixture to assemble rabbit fits in each Compressor wheel
assembly
32. Continue stacking until the 16 th stage wheel is assembled
33. Assemble bolt stretching fixture
34. Apply hydraulic jack pressure and pull the compressor bolt to increase in length
35. Obtain correct dimension of elongated compressor bolt
36. Tighten the nut to the stretched bolt
37. Release hydraulic jack pressure on the bolt
38. Repeat the process on all 18 compressor thru bolts
39. Put compressor in late and skim cut balance support on last stage disc
40. Balance compressor rotor
41. Repair Distance Piece mating Rabbit fit is required
 42. Use balance mandrel and bolt it to the distance piece and then to balance
Turbine Section
43. Balance Turbine section
44. Remove Turbine section Balancing Fixture
45. Turn compressor section vertical on stacking table
46. Pack dry ice around the Distance piece
47. Assemble the Turbine Section to the compressor section
48. Install new Marriage bolts
49. Torque Distance piece marriage bolts to complete assembly
50. Perform run out inspection of rotor
51. Obtain Engineering review and approval to proceed
52. Balance Turbine Section
53. Complete al inspection reports
54. Package for shipment

MS5001 Rotor weight is @ 10 tons
