2.0 INTRODUCTION

The function of the Cable Cutters Kit is to protect the aircraft from horizontally
strung wires and cables. If the aircraft encounters cables in flight, the kit is
designed to deflect them into cutters that sever them. This is intended to prevent
potentially catastrophic entanglement of wires in the landing gear and/or rotor,
and seeks to minimize the severity of this type of an encounter.

The 646.4001 Cable Cutters Kit (CCK) is installed on the front of the helicopter.
There is one long deflector beam on the windshield and a cutter located above
the windshield. There is another cutter assembly that mounts under the nose.

The 646.4002 Wiper Deflector Kit (WDK) is an additional kit for aircraft with
windshield wipers or wiper posts present. This kit consists of two additional small
deflectors. It is intended to prevent entanglement of oncoming wires in
windshield wiper posts.

Kits 646.4003 thru 646.4006 are kit configurations for installation of fixed and
removable components.

NOTE: Existing provisions for struts provide four screws--not three. If possible,
pick-up the fourth location and install with existing screws. If not, seal the
unused hole and the strut bases with Sealant PR 1425, P/N 600.1012.

5.11 Cleco or clamp items from previous step, then drill two aft screw holes in
Doublers, F/N 14 & 47s, approximately as shown in Figure 14.

5.12 At this point all holes for attachment hardware should be present and all
trimming and/or grinding for fitment finished. Treat all resulting exposed
metal with MIL-C-81706 (Alodine 1200) then Epoxy primer MIL-P-23377
or their equivalents.

6398 A/B, P/N 600.0990 & 600.0991. This will aid future maintenance by
enabling disassembly without removal of interior items. Appropriately protect
screws, holes and nutplates from sealants and adhesives.

NOTE: Primer, F/N 56, is an adhesion promoter for the VHB Tape, F/N 55.
Clean faying surfaces of Deflector, F/N 3, and windshield, apply Primer as
required, then install Tape, F/N 55, as required along mating surface of Deflector.

5.13 Refer to Figure 14 to permanently install all fasteners and components as

shown. Torque 10-32 fasteners to 20-25 in. lbs. Remove any remaining
clamps, clecos, and temporary fasteners.

NOTE: Newer aircraft may require slightly different hardware due to a new
canopy design. Use Screw F/N 62 in place of Screw F/N 44, and Screw F/N 26 in
place of Screw F/N 41 when necessary.

5.14 There will be gaps along windshield and Deflector, F/N 3, Upper Cutter
Assy, F/N 1, and roof, and around edges of Doubler, F/N 14. Seal and
fillet gaps with Sealant PR 1425, P/N 600.1012. Also apply Sealant to the
top edges of the Channel, F/N 13.

5.15 Allow Sealant and Magnobond to cure, and then paint all components to
match.

NOTE: This concludes the installation for aircraft without windshield wipers or
wiper posts. Return aircraft to operating condition. If wipers and/or posts are
present, proceed with installation detailed in Section 6.0.

7.0 PITOT HEAD MODIFICATION

NOTE: The following steps detail the procedure to modify the existing Pitot Head
located just below the windscreen.

WARNING
FAILURE TO COMPLETE THIS STEP OF THE INSTALLATION COULD
ADVERSLY AFFECT THE ABILITY OF THE SYSTEM TO DEFLECT AND CUT
ONCOMING CABLES.

CAUTION: Newer aircraft may be fitted with plastic Pitot Heads. If plastic, do
not modify it, and disregard this section of the installation.

7.1 Locate the Pitot Head on the nose fairing directly under the windscreen
(Figure 17). Remove two forward attachment screws, loosen two aft
screws about 0.1 in., and loosen sealant around the base flange. Do not
completely remove it.

7.2 Slide a small piece of thin sheetmetal under Pitot until it contacts two
remaining screws. This will serve as a drill backstop.

7.3 Drill a series of 10 equally spaced 5/32 in. diameter holes in the filleted
corner of the Pitot Mast base approximately as shown in Figure 17.

7.4 Treat all resulting exposed metal with MIL-C-81706 (Alodine 1200) then
Epoxy Primer MIL-P-23377 or their equivalents.

7.5 Remove temporary sheetmetal (backstop), reattach Pitot, torque screws

per Eurocopter Maintenance manuals, reseal base and new holes with
included PR 1425 Sealant, P/N 600.1012, then paint to match.
