DESCRIPTION

2.2.1
SAFETY INTERLOCKS
SM64349
STRONG WARNING!
The nozzle was not designed to be used with
the operating handle in a partially open
position as is the practice of some segments
of the services. The handle is not a flow
indicator and operating the nozzle in such
manner is strongly not recommended as
being a safe practice. If the interlock system
is worn the nozzle could be removed from
the aircraft in an open position causing a
spill.

Standard Screen shown, some options utilize 41767-**, 47115-** or 47307-100 in lieu of 44373-**. **
indicates that the mesh size must be added to get a complete part number, e.g. 44373-**.
2.
The part number shown is not complete and must include the spring setting (35, 45 or 55) to achieve a
complete number. The actual hose end regulator utilized will depend upon the inlet configuration chosen.
See Figure 1.

Special manuals are available for 64349H, 64349J and 64349CDK on request.
4.
Safety clip (P/N 210641) for the 61154 dry break QD is considered FOD (Foreign Object Damage) and is
not included on military nozzle assemblies, however, it can be added as a no cost option.
The part number of a complete nozzle consists of four basic parts as illustrated below.
PART 1 Model number
64349
PART 4 Letter describing the inlet thread type &
size.
PART 3 Number describing the male adapter or ball valve required to
mate the desired inlet configuration.

SAFETY INFORMATION
SM64349
SAFETY INSPECTIONS
Note: The frequencies recommended for the
following inspections are our recommendations
based on nozzles that have been in daily
service for at least a year. The frequency that
is required will depend upon the degree of
maintenance extended to the equipment and
to the age of the equipment. It is not possible
for Eaton to recommend other than the safest
possible frequencies.
April 2011
4.3.1
SM64349
D.
Inspect the Lever (14) and the adjacent
ramp surface of the Collar Assy (8) and verify
that neither part is damaged or has missing
pieces that permit the Lever (14) to be rotated
to the open position with the nozzle disengaged
or that will allow the Collar Assy (8) to rotate to
the disengaged position when the Lever (14) is
open. Broken or missing parts can result in
dangerous fuel spills while refueling aircraft.
E.
Verify that the Lever (14) is in the fully
closed (against internal mechanical stop)
position. (This is necessary to assure that the
linkage is over center so internal pressure can
not force the poppet open during the Collar
Assy (8) engagement).
C.
Upon engagement to an aircraft and
opening the nozzle but before operating the
deadman control it is recommended that the
operator attempt to remove the nozzle from
the aircraft. This should not be possible. If it
can be removed, either the nozzle was never
fully engaged onto the aircraft or needs repair,
or the aircraft adapter, is in need of repair or
replacement.
4.3.2
April 2011
4.3.3
A.
Inspect the connection end and verify
that the three Index Pins (21) are intact and in
place. Verify that the three Collar Assy Lock
Pins (19) are intact and in place and extended
and engaging all three cutouts in the Collar
Assy (8) and physically preventing Collar Assy
(8) rotation. Check the Bearing Plate (42)
containing the pins for possible cracks.
B.
Hold the nozzle with the outlet or
connecting end facing such that it can be
observed. Apply pressure on the Collar Assy
(8) in the direction to connect the nozzle
aircraft, counterclockwise, to take up the slack
and inspect the relative location of the three
Lock Pins (19) with respect to the cutouts in
the Collar Assy (8). The two Lock Pins (19)
that are engaged in the normally wider cutouts
should not be resting against the edge of their
respective cutouts. If there is a space between
these Index Pins (19) and the edge of the
normally larger cutout, the collar is still in
functional condition. If all three Lock Pins (19)
are resting against the edge of their respective
cutouts (there is no space), the Collar Assy (8)
may no longer be in a functional condition and
should be replaced if it fails the next step.
C.
With the nozzle being held in the
position described above, attempt to open the
nozzle with the Lever (14). The nozzle should
be prevented from opening by the interference
between the Collar Assy (8) and the Lever
(14). If the nozzle is openable, it should be
removed from service and repaired.
4.3.4
SM64349
B.
Visually check the three slots for
excessive wear. Excessive wear can permit
disengagement of a nozzle without release of
the three Collar Assy Lock Pins (19) and may
permit accidental poppet opening on the
disconnected nozzle. The use of Carter
Gauge 61657-2 will provide a no-go check for
the slots.
C.
If any of the above conditions are
observed, and or the gauge proves the
adapter to be defective, the refueling
operation should be continued only with
extreme caution. The nozzle, upon
disconnection, should be checked in
accordance with paragraph 4.3.1.A.

If Cotter (29) and Nut (30) were
removed during disassembly, torque Nut (30)
to 80 125 in lbs to align slots in nut with hole
in Crank Pin (31). When reinserting the subassembled parts noted in Para. 6.16 of the
disassembly procedure, through the inlet end
of the Body (9), ensure that the Shaft (32) is
inserted into the Bodys (9) axial guide bore far
enough that the bore contains the Dowel Pin
(33).
B.
If the measurement is too short,
prepare to tighten the Poppet (15) one quarter
(1/4) turn for each .020 (0.51 mm) inch of
required adjustment.

Refer to SM40679 for detail information.
Refer to SM349MISC for detail information.
All part numbers beginning with "GF" are interchangeable with those beginning with either "AN" or
"MS". If the "GF" is followed by three numbers it is interchangeable with and "AN" part, otherwise it is
interchangeable with an "MS" part of the same number.
Refer to SM44315, SM61154, SM40679, SM64015 or SM64020 for detail information. **Add screen
mesh size to part number to complete it. Only 100-mesh screen available on Option M.
Refer to SM61154 or SM64001 for detail information.
Item 9A is not present on older nozzles.
Refer to SM64015 for detail information.
The MS29512-03 Gasket (24) is used with Screw (23) 220484. This is available as an assembly (and is
more economical to order as such) as part number KDT-1191. If Screw (23) 209827 is to be replaced
do so with KDT-1191. O-ring (24) MS29513-013 is used with the older Screw (23) 209827 only.
There have been three item 14 On/Off Actuating Levers used on the 64349 Nozzle. Item 14, replaces
the previously used items 14A and 14B. Several other parts are needed to replace (14A) or (14B) and
are furnished with KD64349-2 and KD6434812. Neither (14A) or (14B) are available, they will
automatically be replaced by KD64349-12. Wave Washer (35) is used to provide friction in the lever
mechanism to keep the lever in the open position during flow conditions.
Contents of these kits have changed in the past year hence kits in the stock system may be different
than the contents listed.

Hazard category, hazard probability, and real hazard index (RHI) are defined herein.
B.
Visual inspection means examining the nozzle for obvious cracks, damage, and broken lugs, prior to initial
pressurization.
C.
Pressure test prior to use means pressurizing the nozzle and attached hose to operating fuel pressure, then removing
pressure, prior to aircraft arrival.
D.
Shut off fuel at source will be the first action for any leak. To further improve operating safety, this procedure should be
used for all refueling operations. In addition, fuel flow should be turned on at the source, not at the nozzle.

11.2
RISK ASSESSMENT - A risk assessment procedure based upon the hazard probability, as well as hazard severity may be
required to establish priorities for corrective action and resolution of identified hazards. One example is the real hazard index; a
numeric rank ordering of a mathematical combination arrived at by assigning numerical values to the severity category and
probability level.
A.
Hazard Probability - The probability that a hazard will occur during the planned life expectancy of the system can be
described in potential occurrences per unit of time, event, population, item or activity. Assigning a quantitative hazard is generally
not possible early in the design process. A qualitative hazard probability may be derived from research, and evaluation of historical
safety data from similar systems.
