    MAINTENANCE MANUAL 70-00-00 - STANDARD PRACTICES - INSPECTION

    Manual Part No.3017042 Rev. 52.0 - 15/APR/19

    70-00-00
    Engine Model(s): MODEL(S)PT6T-3/PT6T-3B/PT6T-3BE/PT6T-3BF/PT6T-3BG

    STANDARD PRACTICES - INSPECTION


    1. Standard Inspection Procedure
    A. General
    Damage to engine parts may result from improper clearance, lack of lubrication, undesired
    movement of parts which are bolted or pressed together, overload, uneven load distribution,
    heat shock extension of minor injuries such as scratches, tool marks, grinding cracks, nicks, etc.
    Damage to parts may also result from presence of foreign matter such as grit, chips, moisture,
    chemicals, etc., or from improper techniques during assembly or disassembly.
    NOTE: While it is frequently possible to repair a damaged part so that it may be safely
    reinstalled, it is important that the cause of the damage be determined and corrected if
    possible. Otherwise more serious consequences may result.
    B. Inspection
    (1) Inspect parts for alignment, distortion, foreign matter, looseness, out-of-roundness, sharp
    edges, scratches, taper, warping and wear. Additionally, check the following:
    (a) Holes in cases, manifolds, pipes and tubes for obstructions.
    (b) Gear teeth and splines for contact patterns.
    (c) Magnesium parts for corrosion.
    (d) Mounting pads, parting and seating surfaces, for smoothness and flatness.
    NOTE: Use pencil carbon paper whenever a smear-type indication of surface
    smoothness is required.
    (e) Plugs for tightness.
    (f) Studs, dowels, and similar protruding parts for alignment and projection length.
    (g) Protective surface coatings for completeness.
    (h) Condition of threads.

    C. External Tubes
    (1) Inspect all external tubing, except where special instructions apply:
    (a) Scratches - Minor scratches having no appreciable depth are acceptable. Scratches to a
    depth of 0.005 inch should be blended out.
    (b) Nicks - Individual nicks should not be more than 0.062 inch long, 0.010 inch wide, and
    0.003 inch deep. Nicks to a maximum depth of 0.005 inch should be blended out to
    remove sharp edges.
    (c) Dents - Round bottom dents are acceptable provided the depth is not greater than 10
    percent of the normal outside diameter of the tube. No more than three dents to the
    maximum depth are acceptable per 12-inch length of tube and such dents must be
    separated by at least 0.250 inch. Dents are unacceptable within 0.250 inch of ferrules
    or fittings.
    (d) Chafing - Acceptable, providing three-quarter of wall thickness remains after blending.
    Each blended area must not exceed one-half square inch.
    (e) Pitting - Minor isolated pitting is permissible, provided pitting is not greater than 0.003
    inch deep. Clusters of pitting should be blended out to a maximum depth of 0.005 inch.
    (f) Corrosion - Rust and stains are acceptable if removal by light polishing with crocus cloth
    and oil.
    (g) Inspect flexible hoses for cuts, crimping or buckling. No damage allowed.
    (h) Inspect coupling nuts for cracks and thread damage.

    D. Use of Inspection Gages


    (1) When an inspection procedure requires a very accurate measurement, a micrometer or a
    dial indicator must be used.
    (2) If a micrometer or vernier is to be used, it must be checked for accuracy before making
    measurement.
    NOTE: Ensure that contact faces of the micrometer are clean and that the contact faces of
    part to be measured are clean and free of dirt and burrs.
    (3) When using depth micrometer, the anvil must be held tightly and squarely against the
    contact surface.
    (4) When using dial indicator, its support must be firmly anchored and any swivel connections
    securely tightened .
    (5) When using feeler gages, the gage final size must be a reasonably snug
    fit.
