DIMENSIONS AND CHARTS - AIRFRAME PRINCIPAL DIMENSIONS
The figure 1 depicts the major components of the helicopter. The figure 2 depicts principal dimensions of helicopter
airframe. Due to variations in loading and landing gear deflection, all height dimensions are approximate. With ground
handling wheels installed and fully extended, height is increased by 5 in. (12,7 cm).

DIMENSIONS AND CHARTS - AIRFRAME REFERENCE LINES
1. GENERAL. Station lines, buttock lines, and water lines are used to determine locations on, and within, the helicopter.
All three are measured in inches from known points therefore these lines will not be expressed in metric equivalents
within this manual.
NOTE
The nose of the helicopter is station -20,0, Station 0 is 20,0 inches aft of the most
forward part of the nose.
2. STATION LINES (STA): Stations are vertical planes perpendicular to, and measured along, the longitudinal axis of
helicopter. Several station lines are shown on figure 1 at recognizable locations on the airframe. Other station locations
can be measured from these lines. Tail boom stations, stations within the baggage compartment stations and stations
along the vertical fin are illustrated in the same manner. These stations are perpendicular to the centerline of tailboom
and fin as applicable because these components are mounted at an angle to the horizontal plane of fuselage.
3. WATER LINE (WL): Water lines are horizontal planes perpendicular to, and measured along, the vertical axis of the
helicopter. Water line 0 is 7,44 in. (18,9 cm) below the lowest point of fuselage as shown on figure 1. Water lines can
be used to measure locations as described for station lines in preceding step.
4. BUTTOCK LINES (BL): Buttock lines are vertical planes perpendicular to, and measured to, the left and right along
the lateral axis of the helicopter. Buttock line 0 is the plane of the vertical centerline of the helicopter. Buttock lines
can be used to measure locations as described for station lines in step 2.
5. TAILBOOM AND BAGGAGE COMPARTMENT STATION LINES: Baggage compartment station lines are
measured from tailboom fuselage attach point to aft end of baggage compartment. These stations are numbered 17,42
through 101,38 inches. Tailboom station lines are measured from aft end of baggage compartment to center of
intermediate gearbox. These are numbered 101,38 through 206,17 inches.
6. ELEVATOR STATION LINES (ES): Elevator station lines are buttock lines extended through the elevator to the
elevator outboard tips. These lines are referred to as ES (elevator stations). Fuselage stations (FS) and bottom stations
(BS) also apply to the elevator.
7. VERTICAL FIN STATION LINES (VFS): Vertical fin stations are parallel vertical lines perpendicular to the
centerline of tail rotor shaft, below leading edge of vertical fin. These stations are measured from vertical fin station
(VFS) 0 which is 1,12 in (2,85 mm) below centerline of tail rotor which is at vertical fin station - 1,12 in. These lines
are referred to as VFS (vertical fin stations). Fuselage stations (FS) also apply to vertical fin.
8. MAIN AND TAIL ROTOR BLADE STATION LINES. Main and tail rotor blade station lines are measured from the
center of hub to tip of blade.

STORING
1. STORING - DESCRIPTION
This section provides preparation procedures to place helicopter in storage for a period of six months or less and
depreservation procedures to activate the helicopter after storage. This procedures is divided into three categories of storage:
flyable storage, short term storage, and intermediate storage.
Storage of helicopter includes corrosion control which consists primarily of preventing moisture from contacting exposed
metal surfaces by the use of preservatives.
The existing environment conditions and available facilities must be taken into account when helicopter is to be placed in
storage. A choice of storage procedures is permissible for short periods of storage. For example, a choice must be made
between flyable storage and short term storage for any period of time up to 45 days. The decision will be based on such on
site conditions as availability of men and materials, equipment necessary to perform ground run-ups, or motoring of engines,
defueling and purging of fuel cells and other similar elements. Wet weather conditions promotes corrosion, rot, mildew, and
mold. To prevent these deteriorating effects, perform inspections regularly and take proper preventive maintenance action.
The following practices should be used as a guide during exceptionally wet weather conditions:
1. Prevent rot, mildew, and mold from forming on nonmetallic materials by keeping them clean and as dry as possible.
Keep fabric material in the helicopter clean.
MATERIALS REQUIRED
NUMBER NOMENCLATURE
C-304 SOLVENT
Flyable storage (no time limit) is the prescribed procedure to maintain a stored helicopter in an operable condition. If daily
use is impossible or impractical, this procedure will keep the helicopter in the best possible condition. It requires periodic
attention. Date and type of storage must be recorded in helicopter records.
10-31-01

E-AB412-PT6T-2
1. General preparation.
a. Preservation should be accomplished in an uninterrupted series of operations. When periods of interruption are
necessary, temporary protection shall be provided for partially processed items, as required, to avoid
contamination.
b. The prevention of corrosion depends on the control of moisture. One method is ventilation. On days when the
relative humidity is 55 percent or below, windows and other openings can be temporarily opened to allow
circulation of air through the helicopter. Use fans or blowers when available.
c. Ensure water drain holes are free from obstruction and are kept open for the duration of the storage period.
d. Lubricate the helicopter prior to placing it in storage in accordance with Lubrication Chart in Chapter 12.
2. Preparation.
a. Power train.
b. Engine
(1) Exercise every precaution to keep the engine and accessories clean. Keep the air intake duct, plenum
chamber, and compressor inlet screens clean and free of foreign materials. Clean and preserve engines, as
required.
(3) Operate the engines for approximately 10 minutes at flight idle speed. Check all instruments for normal
operation and ensure that the engine temperature has stabilized. (Refer to E-AB412-PT6T-1 Flight
Manual).
NOTE
This warm-up may be omitted if the helicopter was recently operated and is known
to be dry.
(4) Allow engines to cool and spray accessible engine surfaces with corrosion preventive compound (C-126).
Clean and preserve engines.
(5) Install engines inlet plug assemblies and exhaust protective covers. If engine covers are not available, seal
the air inlet and exhaust openings with barrier material (C-427) and secure with tape (C-410).
(6) Cover additional engine cowling openings in a similar manner as outlined in preceding step 5.
(7) Record the date engines were placed in flyable storage in helicopter records.
c. Hydraulic system.
(1) Check the hydraulic reservoirs and service as necessary with hydraulic fluid (C-002). (Refer to Chapter 12
for hydraulic reservoir servicing procedure).
d. Fuel system.
(2) Service fuel cells to normal capacity after each engine preservation run.
NOTE
Fuel cells filled to normal capacity will reduce fuel contamination by condensation.

e. Airframe.
(a) Install pilot tube cover, or if the cover is not available, wrap the pilot tube with barrier material (C-427) and
secure with tape (C-410).
b. Perform a preventive maintenance storage inspection at least once every 14 day, more frequently if required by
local environmental conditions.
CAUTION
4. To establish an inspection program for storage helicopters E-AB412-PT6T-6, may be used as a guide for areas to be
covered and frequency of inspection. The inspection program shall include the following:
a. When the helicopter protective covers are not available, the areas concerned will be protected with barrier
material (C-427) secured with tape (C-410). Barrier material should be installed to prevent the accumulation of
water on the surface. Provide drains if necessary. Replace barrier materials or protective covers that are damaged
or deteriorated.
b. Determine maximum helicopter interior temperatures during hot weather conditions. This temperature
information can be obtained from standard thermometers temporarily installed in the helicopter. Record interior
temperatures at regular intervals during the hottest part of the day. Ventilate the helicopter if interior temperature
exceeds 135°F (57°C). Provide forced air ventilation if normal ventilation procedures are not adequate to prevent
condensation, mildew, and corrosion.
d. Inspect static ground wires, rotor tiedown straps, and mooring devices (ropes, cables, rods, or eyes) at regular
intervals. Inspect tiedown devices immediately after the helicopter has been subjected to winds exceeding 35
knots. Replace ground wires, mooring devices, or tiedown straps which are deformed or deteriorated.
e. If possible, the helicopter should be stored in a hangar or under a shed roof. Otherwise, it should be parked and
moored in accordance with this chapter.
f. Enter the type of storage and the date helicopter was placed in storage in helicopter records.
b. Remove all barrier material and tape; remove tape residue with solvent (C-304).

NOTE
Hydraulic fluid (C-002) and hydraulic fluid (C-072) are compatible and can be
mixed.
NOTE
Hydraulic fluid (C-072) MIL-PRF-87257 has been introduced to replace
MIL-PRF-5606 (C-002) due to better characteristics of MIL-PRF-87257. At initial
hydraulic fluid conversion it is recommended the replace of old decals with
appropriate new decals.
NOTE
In the event operators subsequently wish to convert their hydraulic systems to use
hydraulic fluid (C-002) MIL-PRF-5606 or hydraulic fluid (C-072) MIL-PRF-87257,
the following procedure is provided. Although the procedure is written with respect
to converting from hydraulic fluid (C-002) MIL-PRF-5606 to hydraulic fluid
(C-072) MIL-PRF-87257, the hydraulic fluid types specified in each step may be
reversed to convert from hydraulic fluid (C-072) MIL-PRF-87257 to hydraulic fluid
(C-002) MIL-PRF-5606.

BATTERY SERVICING
The battery is installed in the nose compartment of the helicopter and is accessible by opening the nose door.
As the battery is of nickel-cadmium type, the electrolyte level shall be normally checked only at the intervals of time
corresponding to the periodical inspections of the helicopter or following a failure of the voltage adjustment unit causing the
battery to suffer a high charging voltage. Check the electrolyte level 3 or 4 hours after the battery has been charged. If the
level cannot be easily checked, a glass or plastic tube of a length of approx. 15 cm (6 in.), with an internal diameter of approx
5 mm (0.2 in.) and with both ends open, can be used. Remove plugs from vents of the battery cells and insert the plastic or
glass tube. Plug the upper end of tube with a finger and remove. If level is 1.5 to 3 mm (0.06 to 0.12 in) it can be considered
satisfactory. Add distilled water if necessary.

LUBRICATION
1. LUBRICATION - DESCRIPTION
Figure 1 illustrates each area that requires lubrication with grease-type lubricant. The legend of this illustration lists items
to be lubricated. Table 1 lists required lubrication, interval, and lubricant type.
The intervals specified are the maximum permitted under normal operation. Do not exceed these intervals. It may be
necessary to decrease the interval of servicing when the operating conditions are more severe.
1. After each day of operation in rain, snow, or after washing helicopter, all exposed control bearings should be purge
lubricated to remove trapped moisture and ensure a lubricant film is applied to susceptible surfaces.
2. Parking helicopters outside in a heavy dew environment requires all exposed control bearings be purge lubricated
every seven days to ensure no voids exist that could trap moisture.
3. If helicopter is stored for periods in excess of 45 days without operation or service, purge-lubricate all bearings.

DISPENSING EQUIPMENT. IF THERE IS PARTIAL SEPARATION OF THE
LUBRICATION OIL FROM THE THICKENING AGENT, OIL MAY BE
REMIXED THOROUGHLY WITH THE THICKENING AGENT TO RESTORE
THE ORIGINAL LOAD CARRYING CAPABILITIES. IF THERE IS A LOSS OF
LUBRICATING OIL FROM THE THICKENING AGENT, DISCARD THE
ENTIRE CONTENTS OF THE GREASE DISPENSING EQUIPMENT AND
REPLACE WITH A SUITABLE SUPPLY OF APPROVED LUBRICANT (IL
GEN-03-93).
CAUTION
If it becomes necessary to change the brand of grease, remove the old grease by purging until only new grease is present,
except as otherwise specified.

E-AB412-PT6T-2
NOTE
Prior to and following grease lubrication, visually examine grease fittings for
presence of the spring loaded steel ball. If the steel ball is not visible, does not spring
back to the closed position, the grease fitting indicates excessive leakage, or it is
difficult to inject grease during lubrication, replace the grease fitting. If the grease
fitting is removed due to the spring loaded steel ball not being visible, insert a small
steel probe into the back of the grease fitting to confirm the presence of the steel ball.
If it is identified that the steel ball is not present in the grease fitting, further
investigation is required to ensure that the steel ball has not migrated into the
component and caused damage. Discard grease fittings that have been removed.

NOTES:
1 MIL-PRF-81322 Grease is recommended for all applications which previously used MIL-G-25537 grease, but intermixing of
greases is prohibited. When changing from one grease to the other, purge old grease with grease gun until new grease
appears or disassemble and clean old grease, then apply new grease.
2 Lubricate tail rotor hanger bearing with Mobil 28 conforming to MIL-PRF-81322 grease. Lubricate bearing by slowly pumping
grease into fitting until grease may be seen around bearing seal. Use extreme care because excessive pump pressure may
push seal from bearing.
3. All models will not have lubrication fittings on anti-torque control tube bearings. Purge lubrication only required when grease fit-
ting is installed.
4. Coat all bolted joints and faying surfaces on hub and swashplate with corrosion preventive compound MIL-C-16173 grade 1,
external.
5. Some environmental conditions that require additional lubrication are listed below:
If helicopter is operated in rain showers or snow, or if helicopter is washed, purge-lubricate all exposed control bearings to
remove trapped moisture and ensure that a lube film is applied to all working surfaces.
If helicopter is parked in a heavy dew environment, purge-lubricate all exposed control bearings every seven days to ensure
that no voids exist that could trap moisture.
If helicopter is stored for periods in excess of 45 days without operation or service, purge-lubricate all grease bearings.
6. Grease, 204-040-755-5, has a shelf storage life of 4 years whether stored in original container or in a component. If a compo-
nent is not put in service prior to expiration of the 4 year shelf life of the grease, component shall be relubricated prior to instal-
lation on a helicopter. After initial operation of component on the helicopter, refer to lubrication chart for lubrication intervals.
(The application of torque constitutes placement into service).
7. Refer to Chapter 65 for instructions to lubricate flexible couplings.
8. At 300 hour inspection, purge lubricate swashplate and collective lever trunnions and trunnion rod ends as follows: Rotate and
simultaneously purge lubricate trunnions and trunnion rod ends to remove as much of “old” lubricant as possible.

control of rotating component generated vibration. The instrument recommended to support the model 413 is the Scientific
RADS AT. This instrument replaces the Chadwick-Helmuth Vibrex system as the primary support equipment for the current
configuration of the helicopter. Procedures are provided for the Vibrex where that system is still functional.

ROTOR SMOOTHING AND VIBRATION ANALYSIS
Many types of vibrations are present in the helicopter at low to moderate levels. The main sources of these vibrations are
the main rotor, tail rotor, and engine-to-transmission (main) drive shaft. Other dynamic components (hydraulic pump, oil
cooler fan, etc.) can generate vibrations at various frequencies. These vibrations are generally at such a low level, they are
seldom perceived (table 1). The primary source of vibrations is the main rotor. Main rotor vibrations occur at 1/rev (once
per revolution), 2/rev (twice per revolution), 4/rev (four times per revolution), and 8/rev (eight times per revolution)
frequencies. The magnitude of 1/rev and 2/rev vibrations in the cabin area is influenced by the condition of main rotor
blades, main rotor hub, and control system components.
Vibrations can be reduced in magnitude or eliminated by repairing or replacing worn or unserviceable components and by
tracking and balancing the main rotor. The installation, condition, and compatibility of lead-lag dampers have the most
impact upon the ability to obtain, and maintain, a low level of 1/rev and 2/rev vibration. Additionally, degradation in any of
the hub or control system elastomeric bearings will affect the level of 1/rev vibration. As opposed to the earlier version of
the main rotor blade, P/N 412-015-200-111, the later version blades, P/N 412-015-300-109, will seldom cause an
uncorrectable 1/rev vibration unless damaged or improperly repaired. The 4/rev vibrations are controlled by the pendulum
absorbers in the rotor and by the tightness of the instrument panel and nose structure. An increase in 4/rev in cabin area can
signify degradation of pendulum support bearings or even a loosening of helicopter nose structure. This increase can also
be caused by improperly accomplished nose structure modifications and loose components in nose such as the battery or
avionic equipment. Main rotor 8/rev vibrations are always present. However, vibrations at this frequency generally do not
affect ride quality.
Vibrations from the tail rotor can occur at the 1, 2, and 4/rev levels. In general, only the 1/rev vibration can be corrected or
reduced by tracking and balancing the tail rotor.
A high frequency vibration and pulsation noise in cabin can be caused by the engine-to-transmission driveshaft. This
vibration can be eliminated by proper balancing of the engine-to-transmission driveshaft (module 18-12-05 paragraph "1.
Balancing main drive shaft - control of main driveshaft vibration" or module 18-12-03 paragraph "1. Tail rotor balancing -
control of tail rotor vibration").

For main rotor track and balance adjustments using RADS AT equipment, refer to module 18-12-01 "MAIN ROTOR
BALANCING (ROTOR ANALYSIS AND DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM, MODEL AT (RADS AT))".
2-2. ROTOR TRACKING AND BALANCING - TAIL ROTOR TRACK AND BALANCE
For tail rotor track and balance procedures using RADS AT equipment, refer to module 18-12-03 "TAIL ROTOR
BALANCING (SCIENTIFIC ATLANTA ROTOR ANALYSIS AND DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM, MODEL AT (RADS
AT))".
The most common vibration felt by crew and passengers is main rotor generated 1/rev (one beat per revolution), 2/rev (two
beats per revolution), and 4/rev (four beats per revolution). In table 1 is shown the frequencies of these vibrations. In general
only the 1/rev and 2/rev can be controlled by adjusting the main rotor system. The 4/rev levels are dependent on the condition
of the pendulum absorbers and the condition of the fuselage (primarily the nose and instrument panel structure) and are not
significantly effected by standard track and balance adjustments or rotor system component changes.

The primary instrumentation for measuring rotor vibration is the Rotor Analysis and Diagnostic System, Model AT (RADS
AT). The RADS AT automates the acquisition of blade track and vibration data as well as corrective actions required to
accomplish tracking and balancing. Also, the RADS AT automatically obtains blade sweep (lead-lag) information which
helps to locate problem components in the hub and rotating control system. RADS AT consists of the following:
1. A harmonic analysis system to measure main rotor, tail rotor, and engine-to-transmission driveshaft induced vibrations
at multiple frequencies.
18-12-01
Rev. 2 Page 1
E-AB412-PT6T-2
2. A passive and/or an active optical tracker to measure individual blade track and lead-lag variations. The passive optical
tracker is used for day-only operations. The active optical tracker can be used for either day or night operations.
3. A diagnostic program which defines rotor adjustments required to track and balance main rotor and to balance tail rotor
and engine-to-transmission (main) driveshaft.
4. A spectrum analysis program (FFT) which allows the operator to determine magnitude and frequency of any vibration
present in helicopter.
NOTE
To change from vibrex equipment to RADS AT, most sensors and cables can be
used. Contact Scientific Atlanta, San Diego, CA, for help in making the conversion.
5. Three main versions of Model 412 rotor analysis and diagnostics software are available as follows:
b. 412-41 version 5,22 or greater for use on shifts with 204-031-927-105 pylon mounts.
c. 412-50 Version 5,24 or greater for use on ships with 204-031-927-107 pylon mounts.
6. Determine version of software loaded into control and data unit (CADU) of RADS AT as follows:
a. Select MANAGER option from MAIN MENU screen and then select STATUS.
7. Various accelerometers may be used with RADS AT. Match accelerometers and software as follows:
a. Using CADU select MANAGER option from MAIN MENU screen and then select STATUS.
c. Find page listing accelerometers versus software. Select accelerometers which are compatible with software or
change types of accelerometers in software by selecting SETUP in MANAGER section. Scroll to
ACCELEROMETERS and, by pressing right or left cursor keys, various accelerometers may be chosen.
NOTE
Failure to select and verify accelerometers match software will result in inaccurate
vibration data or no vibration data measured at all.
CAUTION

In table 1 are shown test conditions used by various flight plans to smooth the rotor. It is recommended all flight tests be
conducted at a light gross weight as this is the configuration for which RADS diagnostics have been optimized. The
recommended configuration is two/three crew and 500 to 1500 lbs of fuel. Two flight plans are used to smooth the rotor
system. These are:

TEST DESCRIPTION 412_41/412_50
I.D. FLIGHT PLAN
INITIAL: The purpose of this mode is to track rotor on ground and in hover and to balance rotor while on the ground. This
mode is used to set up rotors with one or more major component changes prior to flight (i.e. blade, hub, pitch link, etc.). This
mode does not reduce vibration in hover and is designed to provide level of 1/rev on first flight which allows complete flight
envelope to be checked. This mode has been successfully completed when balance on ground is below 0.2 IPS and track of
blades at idle and FPG100 are within 2.0 mm of ± 20 mm position and hover track is within 4 mm of ± 20 mm.
FLIGHT: The purpose of this mode is to smooth the rotor system. This mode works best when the INITIAL has been
accomplished first. This mode is used alone when a rotor is being resmoothed as part of routine maintenance (no major
component changes). This mode also optimizes track spread versus airspeed which normally will minimize 2/rev levels. This
mode has been completed when flight crew is satisfied with the ride or diagnostics indicate that no further improvement can
be made. Refer to paragraph "9. Main rotor balancing - ride quality guidelines" on ride quality guidelines.
1. In the 412-41 program for ships with 204-031-927-105 mounts, these two flight plans are called INITIAL and
FLIGHT. In 412-50 program for ships with 204-031-927-107 mounts, these programs are:
a. Ensure system is installed (paragraph "3. Main rotor balancing - rads at installation").
b. Turn on CADU to view main screen. Use arrow keys to select AIRCRAFT TYPE and press DO. Use arrows to
highlight either 412-41 or 412-50 (depending on pylon mount configuration) and press DO to select.
c. With aircraft type selected, press DO to select or define TAIL NUMBER of aircraft (AgustaWestland prefers
operator to use S/N and not registration number). When TAIL NUMBER has been highlighted or defined, press
DO to select.
d. With aircraft type and tail number defined, press DO to select FLIGHT PLAN. In this case, a determination to
run an Initial or Flight to smooth the rotor is required. INITIAL sets up new or overhauled rotors for flight and
FLIGHT smooths rotor in flight. When using 412-50 program, define type of skid gear.
e. With type, number, and plan selected, CADU screen should look similar to examples in figure 9. With CADU
properly configured, press F1 to initiate MEASUREMENT mode of RADS.
f. Once measurement mode has been activated, the list of test conditions to be conducted will appear. Refer to
table 1 for test definition if required.
18-12-01

g. With list of test conditions displayed, operate helicopter and obtain data at each designated test condition which
can be achieved by highlighting test condition and pressing DO once to arm system and a second time to initiate
data collection sequence when helicopter has stabilized on the test condition. Repeat individual test at least three
times if a warning appears before terminating the test flight and troubleshooting the system.
h. Once all data has been obtained, shut down helicopter and select DIAGNOSTICS (if all test conditions have
been obtained) or press QUIT, then select SAVE and EXIT. Select DIAGNOSTICS to determine what, if any,
corrective action is required (paragraph "5. Main rotor balancing - using diagnostics").
i. Repeat step e. through h. until an acceptable ride is obtained. If an acceptable ride cannot be obtained or other
problems are encountered, refer to module 18-12-02 paragraph "1. Main rotor balance - troubleshooting" for
recommended corrective action.
j. All data has been obtained for a test condition if the word DONE appears after the test. Partial data has been
obtained if PARTIAL appears and no data has been obtained if FAIL appears.
k. Note what error messages say. Do not continue if failure is an obvious system fault as this will only waste time.
Take corrective actions displayed on screen and refer to module 18-12-02 paragraph "1. Main rotor balance -
troubleshooting" for additional troubleshooting steps.
l. Tracker faults are most likely when pointed directly at the sun. Adjust orientation of the helicopter if a tracker
fault occurs.
1. A screen comparing measured levels to predefined limits will appear on screen. These limits are not true limits or
vibration target levels, but are programmed into RADS to allow the use of RESOLVE TO LIMIT feature in RADS
diagnostics to optimize number of adjustments specified to smooth rotor. This feature eliminates unnecessary
adjustments which can be called out to work rotor when all adjustments are specified without control. If RADS
indicates all measurements are within limits, and/or ride is acceptable to the crew, press QUIT to return to main menu.
If any measurements are outside limits and ride is considered unacceptable to crew, press DO to begin diagnostic
analysis.
2. The default setting for diagnostics is RESOLVE TO LIMIT. As diagnostics are entered, RADS will begin to count
down number of moves required to reach target levels below predefined limits. This counting down eliminates less
meaningful adjustments and takes approximately three minutes with newer CADU’s type.
3. Upon completion of analysis, a list of adjustments will be displayed. Record these adjustments on a form similar to
that shown in figure 10. Make adjustments specified as described in paragraph "6-1. Advanced editing features -
making adjustments". If adjustment cannot be made as defined, approximately the same result can be obtained by
making opposite move on opposite blade. If the operator does not want to make a specific move (such as a produce
balance move), adjustment can be turned off using EDIT ADJUSTABLES mode in DIAGNOSTICS menu. To deselect
this adjustment, select edit adjustable option and press DO. Select adjustment to be turned-off (only Y adjustments are
on), and press F1 to change from on to off (Y to N). Press DO to recalculate adjustments to be made.
4. Once adjustments to be made have been defined and recorded, return to main menu by selecting MAIN MENU from
DIAGNOSTICS MENU.
5. When in INITIAL mode if all test conditions are not measured, the following editing adjustments are required to
calculate correct set of adjustments:
b. 100% RPM only: Turn off all adjustments except hub weights.
18-12-01
Rev. 2 Page 15
E-AB412-PT6T-2
6. When in FLIGHT mode, never turn off hub weights. Ignore weight moves below 0.3 weights. No track data: Turn off
the adjustments for the red and green blades.
7. On initial runs with new blades or pitch links, it is best to make at least one idle run to correct large track errors prior
to conducting full initial test plan.
8. As experience is gained with the RADS, the operator may want to use other diagnostic options available. These options
are described in paragraph "6. Main rotor balancing - advanced editing features".

The RADS incorporates a number of editing features which the operator can use to optimize diagnostics. The 412-41 and
412-50 program use the option called RESOLVE TO LIMIT as default analysis. Listed below are the basic features of
options available from the DIAGNOSITCS MENU:
1. EDIT ADJUSTABLES: This feature allows operator to specify which adjustments are valid to be used in analysis. A
‘Y’ allows adjustments to be used and ‘N’ disallows its use. F1 allows changing of an adjustment status for use in an
additional calculation. F2 and F3 disallow either a blade or an adjustment. F4 returns setting to original default. When
editing has been completed and DO is pressed, the RADS will recalculate adjustments using only the new adjustments
allowed.
2. EDIT DEFAULTS: This feature allows operator to specify maximum number of moves, based upon predefined
LIMITS or by a set number specified by the RADS. The features available under this option are:
b. RESOLVE TO LIMIT: The standard mode for INITIAL is OFF which allows all adjustments to be used to obtain
optimum track and ground balance. The standard mode for FLIGHT is ON which allows the system to calculate
the least number of adjustments to reduce 1/rev levels to below predefined limits. This is a significant time saver
as it allows only meaningful adjustments to be used. It is possible to use arrow keys to select OFF in FLIGHT
mode. This allows all adjustments to be used to target an optimum 1/rev level. This should only be done in
conjunction with selecting 6 or less adjustments as MAXIMUM NUMBER to minimize needless adjustments.
In combination (i.e. OFF and 6), the system will calculate the best set of moves (limited to number selected) to
reduce 1/rev levels.

Pitch links are used to track rotor at idle and to minimize lateral 1/rev experienced during flight. RADS AT equipment or
vibrex charts are used to determine pitch link adjustments. When adjusting a pitch link, the smallest meaningful move is one
flat (0.6 or above one flat). All moves greater than one flat are rounded to the nearest 0.5 flat.
If a very large adjustment is required, use upper rod end bearing. The ratio is 1/2 turn of upper rod end bearing equals a 12
flat turn of pitch link.
NOTE
When working newly installed rotors, set pitch link to nominal setting (refer to
Chapter 62).

Trim tab locations are shown in figure 11. Outboard trim tabs (9) are used for initial ground tracking and
are the primary adjustment for reducing vertical 1/rev in flight. Midspan trim tabs (6) are used as a secondary adjustment.
The main purpose is to maintain proper track separation in flight. The next purpose is to supplement outboard trim tab if a
very large adjustment of outboard trim tab is required during both initial tracking and vibration phases. Maintaining proper
track separation with airspeed ensures low 2/rev levels. The inboard trim tabs are used if vertical 1/rev at VNE and/or during
a 60 knot/1000 rpm letdown cannot be made acceptable while maintaining an acceptable vertical 1/rev at 120 knots IAS.
The trim tab adjustments, as indicated by RADS AT equipment, are made equal and opposite in both blades of the pair.
Outboard trim tabs are adjusted using the trim tab gage (T44) (figure 12) and trim tab bender (T43).
1. Review RADS AT correction data to identify trim tabs to be adjusted and amount of adjustment.
NOTE
Install trim tab bender so angle indicator is on bottom side of trim tab.
a. Slightly loosen wingnuts on trim tab bender until bender can be slipped onto trim tab.
b. Position trim tab bender so there is a 0.125 in (3.2 mm) gap between leading edge of trim tab bender and trailing
edge of blade. Ensure trim tab bender is square with trim tab.
3. Place trim tab gage outboard of outboard trim tab, outboard of midspan trim tab, or inboard of inboard trim tab as
applicable. The spring clip of trim tab gage shall be on bottom. Adjust position of trim tab gage on blade until trailing
edge of blade and angle of angle indicator of trim tab bender is flush with trim tab gage surface.
4. Determine angle of trim tabs using trim tab gage. Use trim tab gage marked STA 258 (-200BLD) to read outboard trim
tab angle. Use trim tab gage marked STA 200,1 (-300 BLD) to read angle of midspan trim tab (figure 12). Use inboard
tab side of trim tab gage to read angle of inboard trim tab.
NOTE
Maximum allowable adjustment for midspan and outboard tab is ± 7. Maximum
allowable adjustment for inboard tab is ± 15.
6. Repeat step 1. through 5. until all outboard, midspan, and inboard trim tabs are adjusted.
7. After all trim tab adjustments have been made and verified, loosen wingnuts on trim tab bender and remove bender
and trim tab gage from blade.

Hub balance weights (figure 13) are called for by the number of T104 weights (0.25 lb or 113 g) required. On RADS AT
equipment, these are identified as WEIGHTS. A 0.5 weight adjustment is achieved by using one T107 weight (0.14 lb or 63
g). In general, weight moves are made only to trailing edge location. The leading edge locations are used only when eight
large weights have been added to trailing edge. After eight weights have been added to trailing edge, add remaining weights
to leading edge location.
1. Review RADS AT correction data to determine which hub balance weight adjustments are required. Round
adjustments to nearest 0.5 weight.
4. Install required number of weights in locations shown in figure 13. Equalize number of weights on each side of balance
location arm. Do not exceed eight weights at any balance location.
5. Use required length of NAS6205 bolts to secure weights to balance arm. Ensure a minimum of two threads extend
beyond MS21042L5 nut. Torque bolt 100 to 140 in-lbs (11.30 to 15.82 Nm).
NOTE
Use small steel washers to compensate for bolts slightly longer than needed for hub
balance weights installed.

Once a main rotor has been product-balanced, it should not require additional product balancing until a blade is replaced, or
an existing blade is refinished, repaired, or otherwise altered. Therefore, when trimming a previously worked main rotor,
use pitch link adjustments and/or hub balance weight adjustments to correct balance. Product balance adjustments are
defined as the number of T118 weights added or removed from rear product balance pocket (2, figure 11). The forward
product balance pocket (3) and rear product balance pocket are at different blade stations. A different amount of weight must
be adjusted in each pocket to achieve the same balancing result.
To simplify product balance adjustment, table 2 shows combinations of weights needed to adjust product balance while
maintaining mass balance of blade. The smallest meaningful adjustment is a 0.5 weight adjustment. The following is an
example of how to use table 2.
EXAMPLE: The RADS AT data indicate to product balance the blue coded blade –0.4 weight. In table 2 shows this
adjustment is rounded to a –0.5 weight. Remove balance box covers screws (8, figure 11). Remove balance box covers. The
rear product balance pocket (2) is found to have one T118 weight installed. The forward product balance pocket (3) is found
to have one T119 weight installed.
Two possible combinations of adjustments will yield a –0.5 weight move. The table shows the first option is to remove T118
weight from rear product balance pocket, to add three T117 weights to this pocket, and to add two T117 weights, one
AN970-3 washer, and one AN970-4 washer to forward product balance pocket (3). The table shows the second option is to
remove three T117 weights from rear product balance pocket and add two T117 weights, one AN970-3 washer, and one
AN970-4 washer to forward product balance pocket. However, the rear product balance pocket does not have three T117
weights installed. Therefore, the second option can not be accomplished. Use first option to make required product balance
adjustment. Refer to actual procedure for removal and installation of weight hold down nuts, balance box covers, and
balance box cover screws.

NOTE
Use the following conversions to convert from one weight (or set of weights) to
another.
1. Review RADS AT correction data to determine which blades require product balancing. Make balance adjustments in
increments no smaller than 0.5 weight.
2. For each blade requiring product balancing, remove cover screws (8, figure 11) from covers of forward product
balance pocket (3) and rear product balance pocket (2). Remove covers.
3. Identify and note weights installed in both pockets and refer to table 2 for required adjustment of weights.
NOTE
If required adjustment of weights can be made, proceed to step 4. If required
adjustment of weights cannot be made, perform step 7. Recalculate corrections
(module 18-12-01 paragraph "1. Main rotor balancing - rotor vibration measurement
instrumentation") using RADS AT equipment, and return to step 1. above.
4. Remove weight hold down nuts from forward product balance pocket and/or rear product balance pocket, as required,
to permit removal and addition of weights.
6. Install hold down nuts removed in step 4. Torque nuts 15 to 20 in-lbs (1.69 to 2.26 Nm).
7. Install cover on forward product balance pocket and on rear product balance pocket. Use balance box cover screws
removed during step 2.
8. Perform test flight (E-AB412-PT6T-1). If ride is satisfactory, proceed to step 9. If ride is not satisfactory, repeat step
1. through 8.
9. Upon completion of product balancing, perform the following steps as soon as practical.
a. Remove and discard all balance box cover screws (8, figure 11). Remove cover from forward product balance
pocket (3) and rear product balance pocket (2).
b. Replace all hold down nuts (MS21042L3) which were removed and installed during product balancing. Torque
nuts 15 to 20 in-lbs (1.69 to 2.26 Nm). Apply adhesive (C-307) to new hold down nuts and screw heads.
c. Apply adhesive (C-307) to mating surfaces of cover and blade pocket. Install cover on forward product balance
pocket and on rear product balance pocket.
d. Install new balance box cover screws. Apply adhesive (C-307) to screw heads before installation. Smooth
adhesive squeeze-out flush with contour of blade. Allow adhesive to cure before flight.
NOTE
Curing sealant at lower temperatures requires more time.

NOTE
An airspeed of 65 KNOTS is used to set autorotation RPM.
a. If autorotation rpm is high, increase length of all pitch link assemblies an equal amount.
b. If autorotation rpm is low, decrease length of all pitch link assemblies an equal amount.
c. Remove lockwire and loosen jamnuts on pitch link. Adjust pitch link as required.
NOTE
One full turn of all four pitch link tubes will change autorotation rpm approximately
1% Nr. One full turn of all four pitch link upper rod ends will change autorotation
RPM approximately 3%.
d. Center upper rod end bearing in pitch horn clevis. Center lower rod end bearing in re-phasing lever clevis. Hold

insert using lockwire (C-405).
f. After final adjustment apply corrosion preventive compound (C-101) to threads of pitch link.
The standard accelerometer fit for RADS is adequate to monitor 2/rev levels. Main rotor 2/rev vibration results when one
pair of blades is not generating the same lift as the other pair of blades. This is normally reduced to acceptable levels by
flying the rotor as close to the ±20 mm track spread as possible. This track spread is automatically targeted by the desired
spread. When normal tracking does not reduce vibration to an acceptable level, refer to figure 15 for further corrective
action.
18-12-01
Page 28 Rev. 2
E-AB412-PT6T-2
The next most predominant vibration (besides 1/rev) is main rotor 4/rev. This vibration is perceived by the crew and
passengers as a “buzz” in the cabin. The primary device for maintaining low 4/rev levels is the pendulum absorber assembly
on the main rotor hub. Secondary devices are instrument panel fore-and-aft struts (being delivered on new aircraft) and
instrument panel frahm absorber. These devices are designed to reduce instrument panel vibration which can blur
instruments and cause crew to perceive higher vibration levels.
5. Cracks or looseness in the instrument panel support structure (cracks in glare shield, loose side brace attachments to
the airframe, and the sympathy of special kits to the 4/rev vibration. If 4/rev is perceived or measured to be higher than
normal, refer to module 18-12-02 "MAIN ROTOR BALANCING - TROUBLESHOOTING" for recommended
corrective action.
The following guidelines are provided as recommended action to be followed depending upon existing ride quality.
b. 0.2 - 0.5 ips: 1/rev levels are serviceable with no corrective action required.
c. 0.5 - 1.0: 1/rev levels higher than recommended. Corrective action should be taken as soon as possible.
d. Over 1.0 ips: 1/rev levels unacceptable for continued service. Helicopter should be removed from service as soon
as possible and corrective action taken.
2. Main rotor 2/rev: The RADS is programmed to alert the operator if 2/rev levels exceed 0.15 ips. This is only a guide
to ride quality. If 2/rev is above 0.15 ips refer to paragraph "8-1-1. Setting autorotation rpm - control of main rotor 2/
rev" for corrective action. Normally, the RADS will correct 2/rev automatically by controlling spacing between rotor
blade pairs.
3. Main rotor 4/rev: Main rotor 4/rev is dependent on kits installed and condition of nose structure. As measured on the
instrument panel, 4/rev levels at 120 knots below 1.0 ips should be considered normal. 4/Rev levels above 1.0 ips at
120 knots are above normal, refer to module 18-12-02 paragraph "1. Main rotor balance - troubleshooting" for
corrective action.

TAIL ROTOR BALANCING (SCIENTIFIC ATLANTA ROTOR ANALYSIS AND
DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM, MODEL AT (RADS AT))
Vibration from tail rotor can be perceived as a medium to high frequency vibration in the airframe. The following procedures
should be conducted when:
NUMBER NOMENCLATURE
2. Remove nut from top stud (12:00 o'clock position) on 90 gearbox. Using (29329700) accelerometer bracket (T72) (or
equivalent), install one accelerometer (T73) on stud with connector up and secure with nut. Connect accelerometer end
of 50 foot long accelerometer cable (29105600) (T72) to vertical accelerometer. Route to DAU down left side of fin
and tailboom. Secure so it can not foul tail rotor or controls. Connect to ACC #4 (figure 1).
18-12-03
Rev. 3 Page 1
E-AB412-PT6T-2
3. Attach optical rpm sensor (29314700) to tail rotor optical sensor bracket (29338500A) (T72) so wire is on flange edge
of bracket. Secure sensor to bracket with #440 self locking nuts. Remove nut from aft stud on 90 gearbox and install
sensor/bracket. Secure with gearbox nut so it is level to horizon and pointed directly aft (figure 1). Route optical sensor
cable to DAU, down left side of fin and tailboom. Secure cable so it cannot foul tail rotor or controls. Connect cable
to TACHO #2 on DAU.
4. Check the blades to determine which one does not have large balance washers on gearbox side of blade bolts. This will
be target blade. Install a full width piece of reflective tape (10605000) between two blade bolts on gearbox side of
blade (figure 1).
5. Connect 28 Vdc power cable (29104700) to 28 Vdc port on copilot side of pedestal (figure 3). Connect other end of
cable to 28 Vdc connector on DAU.
1. Turn on CADU. From the main screen select the proper 412 program, select or define the tail number of the helicopter
and select TAIL as FLIGHT PLAN. This configures RADS to balance tail rotor. An example of a properly setup
CADU is shown in figure 4.
3. Operate helicopter with either or both power sections operating (operate as near 100% rpm as possible if operating
both power sections or 99% with single power section operating).
4. Once rpm and temperatures have stabilized, press DO to obtain balance data. In event any error occurs, repeat
acquisition of data up to four times before shutting down helicopter and troubleshooting system as described in
module 18-12-04 "TAIL ROTOR BALANCING - TROUBLESHOOTING".
5. Once the data has been obtained shut down the helicopter.
6. With the data taken, select DIAGNOSTICS to define what adjustments are required to balance tail rotor. Record
adjustments to be made and implement as described in paragraph "4. Tail rotor balancing - making tail rotor balance
adjustments".
7. Repeat tests until the tail rotor has been balanced. To troubleshoot balancing problems refer to
module 18-12-04 "TAIL ROTOR BALANCING - TROUBLESHOOTING".
RADS specifies balance adjustments required to balance the tail rotor as adjustments made only to target the blade. There
are three dynamic adjustments available: the chordwise balance bracket, inboard blade bolt, and outboard blade bolt. The
default in the RADS software is to use only chordwise balance bracket and inboard blade bolt. Should the operator need to
use the outboard bolt for balance, then from within DIAGNOSTICS, select EDIT ADJUSTABLES from DIAGNOSTICS
menu and use F1 to turn off the inboard blade bolt (by changing Y to N) and then use F1 to turn on the outboard blade bolt
on the target blade only (N to Y). Pressing DO will automatically recalculate corrections using the outboard blade bolt.
Once adjustments to target blade have been defined, determine what moves can be made. If RADS specifies to add weight
to a location where weight is on opposite blade, the proper course is to remove required amount from opposite location. If
RADS specifies to remove weight from a location that does not have weight, add weight to opposite side. Refer to figure 5
for information on making balance adjustments.
18-12-03
Page 2 Rev. 3
E-AB412-PT6T-2
2. The target chordwise balance bracket is next to the target pitch link.
3. It is acceptable to add chordwise weight on the both the blank and target balance brackets to make moves smaller than
can be made on one side only due to weight of the bolt.
The optimum tail rotor vibration in flight (within the current 1/2 turn pitch link adjustment capability) is achieved with the
pitch links set to as nearly equal lengths as possible. Therefore, tracking tail rotors is no longer required if the operator sets
both pitch links as shown in figure 6.
NOTE
Helicopters equipped with the fixed length T/R pitch change links
P/N 212-310-701-101 do not require tracking of tail rotor.

NOTES:
3 To accomplish spanwise dynamic balance, use blade bolts (1) as required to accommodate balance washers (5, 6, 7 or 8). Bolts
(1) may be installed with head, inboard or outboard, but all four blade bolts must be installed the same. When change of bal-
ance washers and/or bolts is required, make sure that one washer (2) and one washer (4) are installed next to the blade as illus-
trated. Then install the heaviest balance washer next to the washer (4). Install the required combination of washers (5, 6, 7, or
8) on blade (3) or on opposite blade as required to obtain balance. After installation, make sure proper thread engagement of
two complete threads is shown on bolt.
4 To accomplish chordwise dynamic balance on balance brackets (13), use bolts (10) as required to accommodate the required
combination of balance washers (11 and 12). Use a maximum of two washers (12) and a maximum of ten washers (11) on one
bracket. Install washers (11 and 12) symmetrically. Install the required hardware on balance bracket (13) or opposite bracket
(not illustrated), as required to obtain balance. It is also acceptable to install balance hardware on both balance brackets to
make moves smaller than can be made on one bracket only due to the weight of the bolt.

NOTE
Helicopters code [D] and subsequent equipped with Main Driveshaft
P/N 412-040-005-101/-103, perform main driveshaft balancing whenever driveshaft
is removed and reinstalled.
Most Model AB412 helicopters will make a pulsating low frequency noise at flat pitch due to normal amount of freeplay in
shaft coupling and gearbox bearings. If this pulsating noise is present in hover, shaft out-of-balance is indicated. High levels
of shaft out-of-balance will be perceived as a buzz in the tail rotor pedals in addition to a pulsating noise.
Balancing the main driveshaft can minimize an out-of-balance condition. During balancing procedure, 0,2 ips or less should
be the vibration level attained to maintain the vibration levels within acceptable limits during the time in-service of the shaft.
For helicopters prior to codes [A][B][C], this procedure is optional and not required for any component life or serviceability
requirement. For helicopters code [D] and subsequent equipped with Main Driveshaft P/N 412-040-005-101/-103, refer to

1. Locate DAU (29328200) (T71) in cabin aft of crew compartment in a convenient area.
2. Install one accelerometer (T73) using bracket (29329700) (T72) (or equivalent) on right side of combining gearbox
(figure 1). Orient accelerometer and bracket in a horizontal plane with connector pointing outboard. Connect
accelerometer end of an accelerometer cable (291056000 and 29105605) (T72) to combining gearbox accelerometer.
Route to DAU so it can not foul any rotating components, and connect to ACC #3.
3. Using a 29329700 stiff accelerometer bracket (T72) (or equivalent), install one accelerometer (T73) on stud of main
driveshaft input quill (refer to figure 1) by removing Allen head screw and using a bolt to secure accelerometer. Orient
accelerometer and bracket in a horizontal plane with connector pointing outboard. Connect accelerometer end of an
accelerometer cable (291056000 and 29105605) (T72) to transmission input quill accelerometer, route to DAU so it
can not foul any rotating components and connect to ACC #4.
4. Attach optical rpm sensor (29314700) to tail rotor driveshaft optical sensor bracket (29337500A or 29338501) (T72)
so wire is opposite flange edge of bracket. Secure sensor to bracket with self locking nuts. Remove right hand inlet
cowl and install optical pickup to cowling alignment bracket using a bolt (5, figure 3), washers (1 and 6), and nut
(2). If properly installed, optics will be looking at shaft and wire will be pointed up. Route optical sensor cable up and
to right and secure to a convenient location with a tie-wrap. Route cable into cabin ensuring it can not foul any rotating
components. Connect cable to TACHO #2 on DAU.
5. With optical sensor installed, turn shaft so one shaft-to-adapter bolt is directly on top. With shaft in this position, center
a 2,0 in. by 1,0 in. piece of reflective tape on shaft with long axis of tape aligned with long axis of shaft and centered
relative to shaft-adapter bolt. The bolt aligned with reflector is #1 bolt (figure 4).
6. Connect 28 VDC power cable (29104700) to 28 VDC port on copilot side of pedestal (figure 2). Connect other end of
cable to 28 VDC connector on DAU.

select D/S (for standard 412 and 412SP) or D/S-HP (412HP) as FLIGHT PLAN (figure ). This will configure the
RADS to balance main driveshaft.
4. Operate helicopter (E-AB412-PT6T-1) with both power sections at 100% main rotor rpm.
5. Once rpm and temperatures have stabilized, press DO to obtain balance data (on initial run wait five minutes to warm
up grease).
NOTE
In case of any error, repeat acquisition of data up to four times before shutting down
helicopter and troubleshooting system (paragraph "6. Balancing main driveshaft -
troubleshooting").
7. With data taken, select DIAGNOSTICS to define what, if any, adjustments are required to balance driveshaft
(paragraph "5. Balancing main driveshaft - making adjustments").
8. Repeat tests until driveshaft has been balanced. To troubleshoot balancing problems, refer to paragraph "6. Balancing
main driveshaft - troubleshooting". Upon completion, remove RADS equipment from helicopter.
Once all data has been obtained and diagnostics have been entered:
1. The LIMITS screen will appear and display any vibration measurement above the 0,2 limit. As stated above, this limit
is used only as a target level for RADS diagnostics and is in no way an indicator of a level of vibration which must be
met to be serviceable. If operator chooses to improve the balance of shaft, press DO to calculate recommended.
2. When calculated, RADS will display adjustments made to aft and forward adapters of shaft. As programmed, RADS
specifies adjustments only to #1, #2 and #3 bolts. This allows adjustments also to be made to #4, #5 and #6 bolts
without editing adjustments. The definition of blade bolt locations and adjustment options is shown in figure 4.
3. With adjustments defined, record adjustments for future reference and refer to paragraph "5. Balancing main driveshaft
- making adjustments" for proper way to make adjustments.
1. The shaft is balanced by installing or removing balance weights from shaft-to-adapter bolts (#2 and #5, figure 4).
2. Once bolt to be adjusted has been located, remove nut and bolt and using bolt/weight combination shown in table 18-2,
configure a weight package closest to weight specified by RADS.

If it is necessary to measure fore-and-aft 1/rev vibration in flight, the lateral
accelerometer can be rotated so it is oriented fore-and-aft (cable away from pilot).
6. Install reflective tape (C-482) on main rotor blades as shown on figure 2. The targets shall be located exactly the same
on each blade to ensure proper tracking.
NUMBER NOMENCLATURE
CAUTION
NOTE
Strobing blades to determine track variations during flight is essential when working
main rotor. Use Chadwick-Helmuth Strobex (Model 135M-11) only.
It is recommended that Chadwick-Helmuth system be used to ground track rotor. A flag may be used for ground tracking
(especially during ground track at 60%) to ensure perfect track and blade separation between blade pairs (upper and lower
1,75 in. separation).
2. To obtain a proper track picture with the Strobex, accomplish the following:
3. Aim Strobex at 11:30 clock position of tip path plane. Move strobe until a single target is seen; this will be green blade
(figure 3, View A).
18-13-01
Page 3
E-AB412-PT6T-2
4. Slowly increase Strobex rpm setting. As rpm setting is raised, targets on other three blades will appear to approach
green blade’s target from the left. The Strobex is properly tuned when all four blades can be seen. View B shows how
track should appear when Strobex is properly tuned.
NOTE
At 100% Nr, all four targets can be seen at approximately 512 RPM on the Strobex
RPM selector (figure 3, View B). Tuning Strobex too high will result in the two
blade pairs merging into one target (View C).
NOTE
If Strobex does not pick up blade target at 60% Nr, slightly decrease spacing
between magnetic pickup and interrupter.
A sharper track picture may be obtained on Strobex by setting RPM selector on Strobex to twice recommended setting.
(Example: at 60% Nr, set RPM selector on Strobex to 600 rpm instead of normal 300 rpm.) Increase setting slowly from 600
rpm until picture is obtained.
Track information from Strobex is used in conjunction with move data obtained from track and balance charts. The charts
tell how much roll (pitch link adjustment) or tab is needed in each blade pair while the Strobex tells which blade of each pair
should be rolled or tabbed.
EXAMPLE: At 120 knots IAS, the vertical 1/rev is recorded to be 0,25 IPS at 12:30 clock position. As will be determined
in paragraph "3-2. Track and balance - main rotor - working main rotor", the green tab should be bent up 2 degrees or orange
tab bent down 2 degrees. The strobe information, however, shows orange climbing as a function of airspeed with respect to
other three blades. Therefore, orange blade should be tabbed down 2 degrees.

There are four basic adjustments available to minimize main rotor 1/rev vibration. These are:
— Hub balance weights
The functions of each of these adjustments are described in module 18-12-01 paragraph "6-1-1. Making adjustments - pitch
links" through module 18-12-02 "MAIN ROTOR BALANCING - TROUBLESHOOTING". The current blade designs are
shown in figure 4 with adjustments labeled in terminology used herein.
1. Ensure all trailing edge blade attachment bolts (expandable bolts, if installed) are at proper locking force and are
oriented parallel to centers of blade bolts. It is extremely important that expanding bolts are all oriented the same and
orientation can be repeated when blades are unfolded.
2. If any rotating control system links have been disconnected, ensure link is reinstalled in such a way that any
elastomeric bearing has zero torsional preload at flat-pitch when swashplate is level with respect to mast. This may be
accomplished as follows:
d. Install link in such a way that it is within one serration on elastomeric bearing of being perpendicular (90) to
the re-phasing link.
3. If new blades are being installed, ensure tabs are set to zero or are set to angles called out on data sheet supplied with
blades. When replacing one or a pair of blades in a previously worked rotor, do not “zero” tabs of original blades; leave
them as a set prior to blade change. The one exception to this is when one blade is replaced, the inboard tab of mating
blade should also be zeroed, since both inboard tabs of a blade pair are always bent opposite each other.

The proper sequence for working the rotor on helicopters having blades which incorporate three trim tabs and product
balance is shown in figure 6. The most important phase in working the rotor is to obtain a good ground track and balance
prior to going to flight. Once in flight, track is less important, but should be recorded to provided information on which blade
of a pair should be worked to maintain the best separation between the pairs. In flight, the magnitude and clock angle of the
1/rev vibration takes precedence over the track (i.e. a good ride has higher priority than a good track). All rotor track and
balance data should be recorded on a copy of the form in figure 7.
1. Rolling into ground track at 60%: The first phase in working the rotor is to obtain a good ground track at 60% rotor
speed (Nr). To accomplish this proceed as follows:
b. Observe track of rotor using Strobex or flag (if Strobex is used, set initial oscillator setting at 600) and record on
rotor tracking sheet.
c. Set Balance/Phazor FUNCTION selector to TRACK. Aim Strobex at the 11:30 location. Slowly increase
Strobex setting until all four blades are seen.
d. Estimate amount of out-of-track and adjust length of pitch links as required (module 18-12-01 paragraph "6-1-1.
Making adjustments - pitch links"). The amount of blade-track change per adjustment of pitch link is as follows:
e. Repeat steps a. through d. until rotor is in proper track. The blades are in proper track when blades of upper pair
(red and blue blades) are in same plane and blades of lower pair (orange and green blades) are in same plane
with separation between pairs being 1,75 in. (Reflectors are 1,25 in. in length and can be used to estimate gap
between blade pairs.)
2. Obtaining 100% track and balance. Once 60% track has been obtained, rotor is ready to be tracked and balanced at
100% Nr. To accomplish this, proceed as follows:
a. Operate helicopter at, or near, 100% Nr (single power section operation is acceptable).
(1) Air Strobex to view track in front of copilot seat (11:30 position).
(2) Pull trigger and move Strobex until one target is seen.
(3) With this target in view, increase tuning of Strobex until all four targets are seen.
(4) Record position of targets and gage track by length of reflective tape.
b. Measure and record magnitude and phase of lateral and vertical 1/rev vibration and record blade track (if Strobex
is used, set oscillator to an initial setting of 500).
c. Plot lateral 1/rev vibration on Hub Balance Chart shown in figure 8. Note to which blade(s) chart calls for adding
weight. If track is close, make weight adjustment indicated. If rotor is significantly out of track, proceed to step
e. prior to balancing.
d. Repeat steps a. through c. until lateral 1/rev vibration is reduced to below 0,1 ips (preferably to 0,05 ips, or
below).
18-13-01
Page 10
E-AB412-PT6T-2
e. Use outboard trim tab to obtain track at 100% rpm. Bending outboard tab up causes blade to climb; bending tab
down causes blade to dive (module 18-12-01 paragraph "6-1-2. Making adjustments - trim tabs"). The sensitivity
of track to outboard tab adjustment is as follows:
f. After each tab move, repeat steps a. through e. until lateral 1/rev is below 0,1 ips and rotor is in track.
a. Product-balancing the Rotor (-200, -111, and all -300’s). Once the rotor has been tracked and balanced on the
ground, the product-balance of the rotor is checked and adjusted, if necessary. To accomplish this proceed as
follows:
(1) Observe track of rotor at 100% flat pitch on ground and record vertical and lateral 1/rev readings (if not
already accomplished). The lateral 1/rev readings should be below 0,1 ips at this time.
(2) Lift helicopter into a hover (E-AB412-PT6T-1) and orient nose into wind. Observe and record track as well
as lateral 1/rev vibration levels (magnitude and phase).
(3) If lateral 1/rev vibration is acceptable in a hover, then helicopter is ready to go into forward flight.
(a) If lateral 1/rev vibration is higher than desired and at the same clock angle as lateral on the ground,
use balance chart (figure 8) to reduce lateral vibration in a hover as low as possible without causing
an unacceptable 1/rev ground balance. If hover is still unacceptable, go to step b.
(b) If the lateral 1/rev vibration in a hover is radically different from that measured on ground in either
magnitude or clock angle, plot 1/rev data on in flight lateral 1/Rev Chart shown in figure 9. From
chart, note which pair of blades should be product-balanced to minimize lateral 1/rev vibration in
hover. By observing track, one can distinguish which blade of the pair should be product-balanced to
maintain a proper separation between the pairs.
(c) Once blade on which the product-balance will be adjusted has been identified, remove cover of
product-balance pocket from which weight is to be removed (module 18-12-02 "MAIN ROTOR
BALANCING - TROUBLESHOOTING"). If exact amount, or significant fraction, of weight to be
removed is present, remove cover of the other product-balance pocket and make all or part of move
indicated by the chart. If insufficient weight is present in product-balance pockets of chosen blade,
the opposite blade will have to be product-balanced the remainder of the move indicated by chart.
Once product-balance move has been made, secure pocket covers on all pockets.
NOTE
If sufficient product-balance capability is not available in the product-balance
pockets, refer to step 4. below.
NOTE
The mistake many make when product-balancing rotor is not rebalancing the rotor
before determining full effect of product-balance move. Remember that any mistake
made in the ratio of weights adjusted at blade tip is magnified by approximately a
factor of eleven; then the error must be countered by weight at hub balance weight
attachment locations.
c. Repeat steps a. and b. above until lateral 1/rev vibration on ground is less than 0,1 ips and in hover is less than
0,2 ips. Once this has been accomplished, the helicopter is ready to go into forward flight.
18-13-01
Page 11
E-AB412-PT6T-2
NOTE
As rotor is balanced it may be necessary to make slight adjustments of outboard trim
tab to maintain an acceptable track at 100% rpm.
4. Rolling the Rotor for Lateral 1/Rev Vibration in a Hover. On rotors with blades that do not have sufficient product
balance capability, the only means available to adjust lateral 1/rev vibration in a hover semi-independently of lateral
1/rev vibration on ground is roll. Roll has more effect on lateral 1/rev vibration in a hover than it does on the lateral 1/
rev vibration on ground, while hub balance weights have an equal effect on lateral 1/rev vibration on ground and in a
hover. With these characteristics known, the proper method for working lateral 1/rev vibration in a hover is to roll rotor
blades until lateral 1/rev vibration in a hover is approximately the same as it is on ground. Once this is done, hub
balance weights are used to correct both lateral 1/rev vibration on the ground and in a hover. The proper method for
working the rotor with roll is as follows:
a. Reduce lateral 1/rev vibration on the ground using Lateral 1/Rev Balance Chart shown in figure 8.
b. Measure and record lateral 1/rev vibration in a hover. Plot this information on Lateral 1/Rev in a Hover Chart
shown in figure 9 and make roll move indicated.
c. Recheck lateral 1/rev vibration on the ground and correct using hub balance weights (module 18-12-01
paragraph "6-1-3. Making adjustments - hub balance weights").
d. Repeat steps a. through c. continuing to use roll to correct lateral 1/rev vibration in a hover and hub balance
weights to correct lateral 1/rev vibration on ground until both are 0,2 ips or lower.
NOTE
Check autorotation rpm (figure 10) on the first flight and, if necessary, adjust as
required (module 18-12-01 paragraph "8. Main rotor balancing - setting autorotation
rpm"). Once lateral 1/rev vibration has been reduced to an acceptable level both on
ground and in a hover, the rotor is ready for evaluation in forward flight. To work
rotor with respect to vertical 1/rev vibration the following steps are taken.
6. Once lateral vibration in hover has been reduced, conduct an airspeed sweep where track, vertical, and lateral
information is obtained at conditions as follows:
b. Hover.
e. VNE.

7. Review data obtained in performing step 6. to determine the vibration in the helicopter. Work helicopter as follows:
(1) Adjust outboard trim tabs (module 18-12-01 paragraph "6-1-2. Making adjustments - trim tabs"). Plot data
on vertical 1/rev chart (figure 11). Record outboard trim tab adjustments indicated as needed to reduce 1/
rev at 120 knots. Chart provides options to bend one trim tab up or its mate down. Select option that best
maintains proper track spacing for rotor.
(2) Adjust inboard trim tabs only when vertical 1/rev at speeds above 120 knots cannot be made acceptable by
adjusting outboard trim tabs (figure 12 and module 18-12-01 paragraph "6-1-2. Making adjustments - trim
tabs").
(3) Repeat steps (1) and (2) until vertical 1/rev vibration level is acceptable.
NOTE
If primary flight condition for helicopter is 120 knots cruise, it is not necessary to
check vibration level at VNE.
b. After vertical 1/rev vibration is worked to an acceptable level, work lateral 1/rev vibration.
(1) Using hub balance weights and M412/Pen in flight Lateral 1/Rev Chart (figure 9), re-trim rotor at flat pitch
on the ground.
(2) Using hub balance weights (module 18-12-01 paragraph "6-1-3. Making adjustments - hub balance
weights"), product balance (module 18-12-02 "MAIN ROTOR BALANCING -
TROUBLESHOOTING"), and/or pitch link adjustments (module 18-12-01 paragraph "6-1-1. Making
adjustments - pitch links"), reduce lateral 1/rev in flight as follows:
(a) If lateral 1/rev is present in a hover and at high speed (and rotor was properly tracked at idle), make
product balance adjustment indicated on M412/Pen in flight Lateral 1/Rev Chart (figure 9). Repeat
this step until additional product balance adjustments cannot be made or lateral 1/rev at hover reaches
an acceptable level.
(b) Make pitch link adjustments if lateral 1/rev is not acceptable and additional product balance
adjustments cannot be made. Refer to pitch adjustment (roll) portion of M412/Pen in flight Lateral 1/
Rev Chart (figure 9). Also, refer to pitch link adjustment procedure (module 18-12-01 paragraph
"6-1-1. Making adjustments - pitch links").
(c) After lateral 1/rev in hover is acceptable, make pitch link adjustments to obtain an acceptable lateral
1/rev in forward flight. Refer to pitch adjustment (roll) portion of M412/Pen in flight Lateral 1/Rev
Chart (figure 9). Also, refer to pitch link adjustment procedure (module 18-12-01 paragraph "6-1-1.
Making adjustments - pitch links"). Make one-half indicated pitch link adjustment for 120 knots.
(d) Once lateral 1/rev in forward flight is acceptable, make small hub balance weight adjustments to
obtain an acceptable lateral 1/rev vibration level in letdown. Since lateral 1/rev in letdown is more
sensitive to hub balance weight changes than lateral 1/rev on ground and in forward flight, it is
possible to make a limited improvement in the lateral 1/rev without making a significant change in
lateral 1/rev on ground or in forward flight. Refer to M412/Pen Hub Balance Letdown Chart (figure
13) and hub balance weight procedure (module 18-12-01 paragraph "6-1-3. Making adjustments -
hub balance weights") and make adjustments to reduce lateral 1/rev in letdown (figure 14) to an
acceptable level.
18-13-01
Page 19
E-AB412-PT6T-2
NOTE
As adjustments are made it may be necessary to re-trim main rotor vertical and
lateral vibration by using the procedures in steps 6. and 7.
Do not change balance for letdown enough to make ground bounce unacceptable.
Since 1/rev vibration is primarily a ride quality factor, the acceptable level is up to
the operator, and must be weighed against increased maintenance time and
component replacement. Optimize ride for primary operating condition of
helicopter.
8. Lateral 1/Rev Vibration that Changes with Gross Weight. It is important to work the rotor without making radical
gross-weight changes. If lateral 1/rev vibration changes significantly when going from light to heavy gross weight,
measure lateral 1/rev throughout flight regime at the increased gross weight. Use Lateral 1/Rev in Hover Chart
(figure 9) to determine proper product balance roll move to correct this condition. To date, adjustments in roll have
been sufficient to correct for minor changes in 1/rev with gross weight changes. Significant changes in 1/rev vibration
with gross weight changes are generally caused by degradation of elastomeric bearings in the control system; therefore,
these bearings should be thoroughly inspected prior to further rotor working efforts.
9. Recording Rotor Configuration. To assist in maintaining rotor at an acceptable level of 1/rev, the chart shown in
table 1 should be filled out immediately upon completion of working the rotor. Save chart for future reference.
11. Trimming the Rotor. Once the rotor is worked, very little maintenance should be required to maintain acceptable
vibration levels. If, after maintenance or during normal operations, the ride has deteriorated, the following steps should
be taken:
a. If rotor has been folded, ensure all expandable blade bolts are torqued and aligned properly. Make any necessary
corrections.
b. Verify that idle track and tab settings are the same as documented in Rotor Configuration Log (table 1). Correct
if necessary.
d. Remove any water from product balance pockets. Verify covers for product balance pockets (2 and 3, figure 12)
are installed and sealed (module 18-12-02 "MAIN ROTOR BALANCING - TROUBLESHOOTING").
If the rotor still exhibits higher than desired main rotor 1/rev levels, work the rotor from its present point; do not zero
everything and start over. If the rotor works successfully, log final tab settings, idle track, and weight configuration on a copy
of the Rotor Configuration Log (table 1). Assure all logs are maintained in such a way that any trend which could give
indications of degradation in the control system elastomeric can be monitored. If degradation is found later, a previous log
entry may allow rotor to be reset to original configuration; thus minimizing rotor working time.
NOTE
When reworking rotors, initial data should be taken with previous hub balance
weights and trim tab settings. Outboard trim tabs should only be zeroed on new
blades. Midspan and inboard trim tabs should be zeroed on both new blade and blade
opposite new blade.

3-4. TRACK AND BALANCE - MAIN ROTOR - WORKING MAIN ROTOR 2/REV VIBRATION
Main rotor 2/rev vibration in helicopters with pendulums is similar to main rotor 1/rev vibration. Main rotor 2/rev is
perceived by the flight crew as a roughness in ride which does not register on the Balancer when tuned to 324 rpm (1/rev).
While main rotor 1/rev vibration is caused by the variation in lift between blades within a pair, 2/rev is caused by variations
in lift between pairs. Generally maintaining proper separation between pairs will result in low 2/rev vibration levels
throughout the flight regime. If, after the main rotor 1/rev has been reduced to an acceptable level, a roughness is still felt in
the helicopter main rotor, 2/rev vibration should be checked. To check main rotor 2/rev vibration, the following procedure
should be accomplished:
1. Mount an accelerometer on the floor of the cabin directly behind the aft row of passenger seats, on the right side of
cabin near cargo door. Connect right-angle accelerometer brackets (figure 15) (or make a bracket which orients the
accelerometer perpendicular to the mounting plane). Once the two brackets have been connected, attach with a
convenient screw at indicated location. To assure that the brackets are sufficiently stiff, back up the bracket attached
to the deck with a large washer. Once brackets are installed, attach accelerometer to bracket in such a way that it is
oriented vertically with connector pointed up.
2. Connect accelerometer cable to accelerometer and Balancer/Phazor. Tune balancer to 647 rpm.
3. Measure 2/rev levels at flight conditions specified for checking main rotor 1/rev vibration.
a. If clock angle of 2/rev vibration is generally the same but levels build with airspeed, then indicated roll move
should be sufficient to reduce 2/rev vibration.
b. If clock angle of 2/rev changes 3 hours between low speed and high speed, then roll for low speed 2/rev and use
midspan tabs for high speed 2/rev.
c. If 2/rev is present only in a letdown, then bend both outboard tabs in direction indicated by charts and counter it
with an opposite bend in midspan tabs. Once 2/rev is adjusted so that all of the data is at the same clock angle,
make a final adjustment using roll to correct.

NOTE
One source of high frequency vibration is the engine-to-transmission driveshaft
out-of-balance. This condition is indicated by a pulsating low frequency noise with a
period of 1.25 seconds. Most model 412 helicopters will make this noise at flat pitch
due to the normal amount of freeplay in shaft couplings and gearbox bearings.
However, if this pulsating noise is present in hover, shaft out-of balance is indicated.
High levels of shaft out-of-balance will be perceived as an annoying buzz in the
pedals in addiction to the pulsating noise.
1. Install one accelerometer bracket (6752 m) (T66) on right side of combining gearbox on stud below and forward of
right power section trim compensator control (figure 1). Position accelerometer laterally with connector pointing right.
2. Install second accelerometer bracket (6752 m) (T66) on transmission input quill at one o’clock (looking forward) stud
by removing existing Allen head screw and replacing it with a 1/4 X 28 UNF bolt (figure 2). Position accelerometer
laterally with connector pointing right.
3. Connect combining gearbox accelerometer to Channel ‘A’ and input quill accelerometer to Channel ‘B’.
5. Operate helicopter (both power sections) at 100% Nr, flat pitch (E-AB412-PT6T-1).
18-13-03
Page 1
E-AB412-PT6T-2
7. Record I.P.S. levels of Channels ‘A’ and ‘B’. A vibration level of 0,2 I.P.S., or below, is considered acceptable.
NOTE
If, when measuring Channel ‘A’ (combining gearbox accelerometer), the I.P.S.
needle is seen to oscillate significantly, the accelerometer is being saturated. To
compensate, allow both power sections to warm up for 5 minutes. If, after warm up,
the oscillation still exists, shut down right power section. This should cause the
oscillation to cease. Retune balancer, as necessary, if single power section operation
will not operate rotor at 100% Nr.
8. Shut down helicopter. Return helicopter with acceptable vibration levels to flight status.
9. If main driveshaft out-of-balance is in excess of 0,2 I.P.S. on either end of driveshaft, remove right engine air inlet
cowling.
10. Install reflective targets on outer rim of transmission input quill adapter (figure 3). Since only one third of the adapter
can be strobed from one location above roof line, three targets are placed at 120 intervals around adapter
circumference.
11. Using a soft lead pencil, mark 4 o’clock target with one broad stripe and 8 o’clock target with two narrow stripes
(figure 3).
12. The targets on forward coupling are used to obtain phase information for balancing both ends of shaft. Should
alignment of bolts between engine and transmission adapters not be the same, some reclocking of engine adapter
balance chart may be required.
13. Position work stand at side of cabin so forward coupling is sufficiently visible to Chadwick operator to strobe at least
one target.
14. Accomplish steps 5. through 7. Record I.P.S. levels on form (figure 4).
15. Using Strobex (T66), locate target visible from operator location and record clock angle on form.
16. Using strobe information from form, determine clock angle of master target. Record on form.
17. Plot I.P.S. level and master target clock angle on appropriate chart (figure 5 and figure 6).
18. Using data supplied on charts, locate proper bolt on adapter and add required balance weights (and bolts) as required
(refer to module 18-12-05 "BALANCING MAIN DRIVESHAFT (SCIENTIFIC ATLANTA ROTOR ANALYSIS
AND DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM, MODEL AT (RADS AT))" table 2 for weights and usage).
NOTE
The combining gearbox (engine) coupling should be balanced to 0,2 I.P.S. or below
prior to balancing the transmission end coupling.
Use AN5-12A bolt when adding one weight and use AN5-13A bolt when adding
two weights.
18-13-03

19. Continue balancing until both couplings are balanced to 0,2 I.P.S. or below. Upon completion of balancing, replace
any nut removed with a new nut. Torque nuts in required sequence (Chapter 63).
20. When balancing either coupling, if clock angle moves from side to side and I.P.S. level change does not agree with
balance move made, the following causes are suspect:
21. When balancing either coupling, if maximum allowable weight is insufficient to reduce vibration to acceptable levels,
accomplish the following:
a. Remove driveshaft and measure run out of engine output adapter or transmission input quill adapter. If run-out
is in excess of 0,004 in. (11,18 mm) reindex adapter on gearbox output shaft.
b. If adapter run out is acceptable, reindex female driveshaft coupling with respect to male coupling by 180.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL
The cabin environmental control (figure 1) includes two subsystems which provide optional use of heated or ventilated air
from separate sources. The subsystems are functionally separated by flow actuated Y-valves located under the windshield
defrost-defog nozzles. Refer to figure 2 for system schematic.
Heated air for cabin heating and defrosting windshields is provided by bleed air from engine compressors. The system
pumps air through ducking to outlets at both door posts, either side of center pedestal, each side of instrument panel, lower
forward window nozzles, and left and right windshield defrosting nozzles. Heating is controlled by switches on overhead
console, a temperature selecting dial on right side door post, and heater defrost control lever on right side of center pedestal.
Ventilating-defogging system uses ram air as source from intake grills on cabin nose, with optional use of blowers for
windshield nozzle and outlets ahead of crew stations. Air intake is controlled by actuating a cable knob. Blowers are
controlled by an overhead panel switch (figure 2).
The temperature selecting dial, through an electrical positioning motor, controls a remote sensor which is mounted on
plenum chamber in compartment on right side below engine deck. This remote sensor, using a bi-metallic element, senses
temperature in heater duct and controls mixing valve through a small tube which operates bleed port in valve.
When heater-defrost control lever on front right pedestal is moved forward to ON, valve in base of pedestal is closed by
linkage to shut off heated air flow to four air valves in pedestal base. Simultaneously, lever linkage activates a micro-switch
in base and a micro-switch closes two valves on single shaft in air distribution outlet control valve and shuts off heated air
flow to passenger compartment valves. When lever is moved aft to OFF position, reverse actions occur to open the valves.
Engine compressor air flow noise is muffled by a noise suppressor in rear of fuselage forward of mixing valve. Heated air
exits from noise suppressor into plenum chamber aft of cabin. Temperature limit switch in aft cabin prevents system
overheating. If temperature in plenum exceeds 220°F (104,4°C), the limit switch activates MASTER CAUTION light and
HEATER AIR LINE caution segment. Cycling continues until heater is turned OFF or problem is corrected.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL
The variable control mixing valve (4, figure 1) is installed in the compartment on right side below engine deck. This valve
controls bleed air and ambient air flow as directed by the remote sensor. A bleed air nozzle inside the mixing valve acts as
a jet pump through a Venturi to draw in ambient air and control air flow mixture. When heated air is not at selected
temperature, the remote sensor causes the variable control mixing valve to increase or decrease engine bleed air flow and
regulate ambient air flow to correct the temperature variation. A temperature limit overheat switch (5) on mixing valve (4)
prevents structural damage in the event of an overheat. The CABIN HTR circuit breaker will open when air in mixing valve
reaches 220°F (104,4°C).
1. Open aft access door at right side of fuselage below engine deck.
3. Install tube (10) and torque "B" nut on tube 40 to 58 ft.-lbs. (54 to 79 Nm).

CREW SEATS
The pilot and copilot (crew) seats (figure 1) are energy-attenuating, bucket-type seats upholstered with flame-retardant
materials. The seats are mounted on tracks and are adjustable in fore-and-aft and vertical directions. Each seat is equipped
with a restraint assembly (2) which consists of inertia reel (3), shoulder harness (11), and seat belt (9). The inertia reel
incorporates an automatic locking mechanism to prevent seat occupant from pitching forward in the event of rapid
deceleration. The attenuator (4) is designed to absorb energy and thereby protect the seat occupant in event of a hard landing.
NOTE
Maintenance procedures for both pilot and copilot seats are similar.
NOTE
Crew seats may be removed/installed after removing screws (8, figure 2) on forward
or aft end of tracks (9 and 11), depending on passenger seat configuration.
1. Remove nut (5), washers (6 and 7), screw (8) and forward stop screws (17) from track (9). Remove similar screw and
forward stop screws from track (11).
WARNING
2. Lift fore and aft adjustment lever (12) on seat assembly (1) and slide seat off tracks.

2. Move fore and aft adjustment lever (12) up and push seat assembly (1) onto tracks (9 and 11).
3. Install screw (8), washers (6), nut (5), and forward stop screws (17) on track (9). Install similar screw and forward stop
screws (not illustrated) on track (11).
2. Inspect fore and aft adjustment mechanism (12) for proper operation.
WARNING
3. Inspect vertical adjustment mechanism (13) for proper operation and verify cable adjustment pin (27, figure 3) is
properly engaged into tube (5) by removing plug (4) and viewing through top of tube (detail B). If pin is not properly
engaged refer to module 25-11-02 paragraph "6. Crew seat vertical adjustment cable - removal".
4. Inspect seat cushions (10 and 14, figure 2) for tears, cuts, and security of upholstery at bonding areas.
5. Inspect restraint assembly (2) (module 25-11-02 paragraph "4. Crew seat restraint assembly - inspection").
a. If the attenuator assembly is provided with the white witness stripe on the guide tube assembly (12), it is enough
to verify if the stripe is visible at the top of the attenuator. If the stripe is not visible, refer to paragraph "5. Crew
seats - repair" for adjustment.
b. If the attenuator assembly is not provided with the white paint witness stripe on the tube assembly (12) or if it is
not proved the existence of the stripe, measure attenuator length as per figure 3 to verify if the attenuator has
been compressed or not. If the attenuator has compressed (i.e. fails to meet minimum extension dimension per
figure 3), refer to paragraph "5. Crew seats - repair" for adjustment. If the attenuator has not compressed beyond
criteria identified above and it is confirmed the absence of the witness stripe, paint the witness line on the
attenuator as per paragraph "5. Crew seats - repair".

NIGHT SUN SEARCHLIGHT SYSTEM (P/N 212-9000-36-101/-103)
The Night sun Model SH-16C Searchlight System has been designed for the purpose of providing the helicopter with a high
intensity light source particularly useful for rescue operations search and surveillance duties, observation etc. By means of
an accessory filter which blocks visible light, the Nightsun Searchlight may be used in conjunction with infrared equipment
to provide covert observation in total darkness.
The installation comprises a searchlight assembly, a gimbal mount, a junction box and a remote control unit. (See figure 1).
The system provides means for remote manual control of direction and angle and focus of the light beam.
28 V dc power to the system is provided by the non essential bus and protected by a 70 ampere circuit breaker, entitled
NIGHT SUN CRT-BRK, installed on the cabin roof.
The searchlight assembly consists of a cylindrical housing within which are mounted the arc lamp bulb, the reflector, a
cooling fan, a focusing rotor, together with various electrical components used in the starting circuit of the lamp. The front
window or lens of the light is made of specially tempered glass capable of withstanding both mechanical stresses and high
temperatures.
The gimbal mounting assembly consists of a ”U” shaped yoke and two small DC motor actuators. One motor is mounted at
the base of the ”U” and serves to rotate the ”U” through the arc in azimuth.
NOTE
Stop pins are provided in the yoke bearing housing to limit the searchlight rotation in
azimuth.
A mechanical safety cable, secured to the gimbal yoke, is arranged for quick connection to, and separation from the
searchlight. In the event of accidental dislocation of the light assembly from the gimbal, the safety cable will prevent the
light assembly from falling free of the aircraft.
The second motor is mounted on one leg of the ”U” and serves to drive the trunnion mounting for the searchlight in a rotation
at right angles to the yoke for elevation.
Reversing the direction of rotation for either motor is accomplished in the control unit by reversing the DC polarity of the
28 V power supplied to the motors.
The junction box consists of a rectangular metal box containing relay and terminal connections for power distribution to the
functional components of the SH-16 searchlight equipment. Cables connect the junction box to the gimbal motors and to the
searchlight, while another cable connects with the remote control unit.
The control unit consists of a rectangular metal case designed for mounting in the pilot's compartment (see figure 1).
The control panel contains a circuit breaker (ON-OFF master) which closes a relay circuit to power circuit for the lamp
starter, power to the gimbal drive motors power to the focusing drive motor circuit and power to a cooling fan located in the
lamp housing assembly.
Opening of the MASTER switch circuit removes power from all subsidiary circuits of the system.

Rev. 1 Page 1
E-AB412-PT6T-2
A second switch of the momentarily contact type used to control the initial start circuit for the xenon arc lamp. A third switch
of the two-position momentary contact toggle type controls the motor which drives the focus mechanism to change the beam
of light from 6.5 degrees to 10 degrees.
Movement of the searchlight in azimuth and elevation is controlled by a four way switch of the toggle type which controls
the power to two small DC motor actuators mounted in the gimbal assembly.
NOTE
Refer to Chapter 98 for Night Sun Searchlight for wiring diagram.
WARNING
1. Make sure the NIGHT SUN CRT BRK circuit breaker is in the OFF position.
2. Start helicopter engine in normal start up procedure. Energize the non-essential bus bar.
3. Reset the NIGHT SUN CRT BRK circuit breaker and also turn ON the master switch located on the control box.
Ensure that the two circuit breakers located on the junction box, are closed. Check for operation of the cooling fan in
the searchlight.
4. Operate gimbal drive switches up/down and left/right. Observe lamp assembly and cabling to ensure freedom of
movement over total travel.
5. Operate focus switch and observe movement of artlamp reflector. Reflector travel should be approximately 0,3 in (7,6
mm).
6. Press and hold the lamp start switch for several seconds. Arc lamp should ignite. Release start switch. If lamp flashes
but does not stay lit, continue to hold start switch down.
7. Observe the electrical loadmeter. Reading on main generator should not exceed 0,7 after lamp is warmed up (1 minute).

1. Position the searchlight in place and secure it with relative wingbolts to the gimbal arms. Make sure the travel stop is
installed on the right side between the searchlight and the gimbal arm.
The SX-16 Night sun Searchlight is air cooled. The transfer of heat from certain components to the surrounding air is most
important. A thin film of dirt will alter the exchange of heat energy with the air.
Periodic cleaning will lengthen the life of the entire searchlight. The cleanliness of the tempered glass window, the xenon
arc lamp, the collector and the air filter affects the efficiency of the searchlight. Moisture and sand or dust are hazards to be
avoided. To clean the searchlight, proceed as follows:
1. Use a soft dusting brush to remove loose dust from the searchlight housing. Begin at the top and work down and around
the searchlight assembly.
2. Use soft lint-free chamois or fabric, moistened but not wet, to remove mud spatters or similar foreign matter residue
from exterior surfaces of the searchlight and mountings.

EMERGENCY FLOATS KIT (P/N 212-4600-03)
The emergency flotation gear (figure 1 and figure 2) enables the helicopter to alight on water during an emergency. During
normal flight conditions the floats are deflated and folded to minimize the helicopter's aerodynamic drag.
Two pair of float switches, located on the helicopter lower side, will cause inflation of floats at the time of contact with water.
The gas required for float inflation is provided by gas generators attached to the float longitudinal support tubes. Ignition of
the explosive charge is initiated by a resistance situated in the charge and connected to the helicopter electrical system.
The electrical circuit is powered by 28 V dc and protected by four circuit breakers titled EMERGENCY FLOATS CIRCUIT
BREAKERS, which are located on the right hand side of the cockpit pedestal; two circuit breakers supply power to the
resistance located in the explosive charge or to the fuse disc (post SB 412-84), one supplies the inflation control circuit and
the other supplies the inflation control circuit test system.
A control panel is located on the central pedestal. The panel incorporates two switches, both protected by a guard cover. The
FLOATS INFLATE/ARM-SAFETY switch is used as a preset switch when placed to ARM position and to prevent
accidental inflation if placed to SAFETY position.
The MANUAL FLOATS switch will be used if inflation of floats does not occur at the time of contact with water.
The test circuit is operated by a switch on a test box located in the forward electrical compartment, and must only be operated
during ground testing; when preset on TEST the EMER FLOAT light located on the advisory panel will illuminate.

2. Cleaning.
If during service floats are found stained with oil, grease, rust, etc., eliminate these stains without delay using a suitable
detergent that is not harmful to rubber. The following paragraphs contain suggestions for cleaning off some of the
substances to which floats may be exposed:
Fresh water - Completely wipe dry, especially metallic parts. The rubberized fabric must be abundantly covered with
talcum powder to prevent mould especially in less accessible areas, e.g. the attaching support straps.
Salt water - Thoroughly wash with fresh water and proceed as above.
Oil and grease - Use aviation gasoline in minimum quantity. Immediately after cleaning, cover threaded area with
abundant talcum powder.
Corrosive substance - Washer area immediately after contamination: allow a waiting period then inspect to ascertain
that corrosion has been eliminated. Test resistance of affected area. If there is any doubt about reliability, dispatch float
for overhaul.
Mould - The action of mould if particularly dangerous to rubberized fabric. All traces must immediately be eliminated
by thoroughly washing the affected area with neutral soap and water. After drying, cover treated area with abundant
talcum powder.
3. Conservation.
Every time float is removed, thoroughly inspect for bonding separation or light tearing. Wash the metallic parts in fresh
water and dry. Wash and dry the float and lay out flat on a wooden shelf or cabinet, cover the float with talcum powder.
The storeroom must be clean and well ventilated with fresh but dry air and disinfected, so as to be free of insects and
rodents. Do not place float on bare ground or area saturated with oil, grease on fuel; always place the float on a clean
canvas cover.
Personnel responsible for float maintenance must be able to carry out simple small cold patch repairs using self vulcanizing
solution. (The patch must be of the same material as the float). For repair proceed as follows:
2. Roughen surface to be patched using (fine grade) sandpaper, remove dust deposits.
4. Mix the vulcanizing solution with its acceleration just prior to use; mix thoroughly 5 gr (0.011 lb) of acceleration for
each 100 gr (0.22 lb) of solution.
5. Smear the solution uniformly onto the patch and the area being repaired.
7. Wait 5 to 10 minutes then join the two treated parts together checking that no air is trapped between the mating
surfaces.
8. Press the two parts together using a flat piece of wood or metal (free of sharp corners). Cover the treated area with
talcum powder.
NOTE
For small surface abrasions which do not compromise the sealing of the float there
are two methods of repair.
a. Repair using only a mixture of solution and acceleration (see steps 3., 4., 5. and 6.). Apply mixture to affected
area only.
25-61-04
Page 8
E-AB412-PT6T-2
b. Apply a self adhesive patch of trim fabric in accordance with the above procedure (Float repair). Do not apply
solution to the patch as it is self adhesive; it is sufficient to clean the affected area with aviation gasoline and
apply a coat of solution.
CAUTION
3. Place a polythene sheet 0.15x2320x3210 mm (0.006x91x126 in) under float cover and secure with adhesive tape. Cut
holes in polythene sheet to allow access of flexible pipe connections and attaching trunnion pins. Reinforce area
around the holes with adhesive tape.
NOTE
To wrap a pair of floats utilize a sheet of polythene 7.5 m (295.3 in) by 3.5 m
(137.8 in).
4. Cover the float in polythene sheeting and secure polythene to float with strips of adhesive tape.
NOTE
The polythene sheet must be of sufficient length to allow covering of end caps.
6. Double fold ends of float to obtain same float and cover length.
8. Close zipper of cover. If a float has been used it is necessary to remove existing cover and fit new item.
Use utmost care when storing floats so as to prolong storage and service life; direct or indirect sunlight and heat are harmful
to rubberized fabric.
The floats must be placed on a shelf or cabinet in a clean, fresh ventilated but dry room, disinfected so as to be free of insects
and rodents. Floats must not be stored folded for a period exceeding two months. When period is longer than two months,
floats must be unfolded and ventilated for at last 24 hours.
For long term storage float must be inspected at intervals laid down by director of stores. Interval time can be reduced if
required by particular conditions (climatic, accidental, etc.).

EXTERNAL RESCUE HOIST INSTALLATION KIT (ELECTRIC)
P/N 412-8800-01-412 (BL20200-412)
The Rescue Hoist System (see figure 1) provides a means for lowering and raising personnel from an airborne helicopter. It
can be operated from the pilot station or the crew station. The Rescue Hoist System is secured to a support installed on the
RH side of the helicopter roof. It is comprised of a hoist assembly, pressure cartridge kit, pendant control assembly, hook
assembly, electronic variable speed controller, interconnection electrical control pendant cable, adapter link cable assembly,
and cable protection. The hoist assembly, is a multiple layered type drum design with a cable capacity of 245 feet/75 meters
of 3/16dia. 19 x 7 construction (spin resistant type). The reduction gearing is of the planetary type. The drive train includes
a fail safe mechanically actuated load brake. The hoist is driven with a 28 Vdc electric motor which includes totally enclosed
fan cooling and an integral motor brake. Limit switches are directly coupled to the hoist drum to control cable fully extended
and intermediate cable positions (hook approach to aircraft and approach to cable fully-extended switch). The cable
fully-retracted switch is built into the cable level wind nut assembly to assure proper homing of the hook when hoist is not
in service. Redundant switches are used and the mechanical mounting techniques employed ensure fail safe operation.
NOTE
If the operation of the hoist, the cable rate is automatically slowed to a safe speed
whenever the hoist is operated in the cable zone controlled by the fail safe redundant
intermediate switch.
The hoist assembly is equipped with electrical connectors to facilitate rapid interfacing with the controller assembly. The
variable speed controller is a highly efficient speed control which incorporates the latest (PWM) pulse width modulated
speed control techniques. Hoist speed control is accomplished by a speed command applied to the controller from either the
variable speed operator control or the constant speed priority override pilot’s control switch. Internal power switching
elements control the amount of average dc voltage applied to the hoist motor. The greater the deflection of the thumb wheel
on the hoist operator’s pendant control assembly, the greater average DC voltage applied to the motor, hence, faster hoisting
speeds. Full deflection of the thumb wheel on the pendant control assembly applies maximum voltage to the dc motor, hence,
maximum cable speed. The controller assembly being greater than 95% efficient dissipates minimal power. The heat skin
on the side of the controller is used to remove heat from the controller and installation must be either horizontal with heat
skin facing up or vertical. The controller incorporates digital electronics which process the hoist limit switch information
and limits the hoist speed if an intermediate switch is actuated and inhibits further hoist movement if a stop switch is
actuated. The controller’s digital electronics also control the priority of the control inputs from the hoist operator or the pilot
control. The pilot has complete priority over the hoist operator and the hoist is automatically set to the 600 lb/273 Kg mode.
The pilot’s command is fixed speed with automatic slow downs and stops when the cable extremes are reached.
1. Disconnect the electrical power and remove the hoist cowling (3, figure 1).
WARNING

3. Remove the bolts and nuts that keep the hoist (2) in position and remove it.
1. Put the hoist in position and attach it to the structure with its bolts and nuts.
WARNING
The load cable for the rescue hoist has a wire rope with a swaged stainless steel ball/shank fitting. The wire rope is a 0.1875
in (4.76 mm) diameter, corrosion resistant, preformed spin resistant type. It is also proof tested. During its fabrication, an
inert gas shielded electric arc process cuts off and bonds the drum end of the load cable, such that the cable end is sealed,
and made correct for attachment at the drum anchor point.
The rescue hoist uses a tension roller system located between the cable guide and drum. The tension roller is driven by the
drum gear through an overrunning clutch, such that when reeling out, the tangential speed of the tension roller is faster than
the tangential speed of the drum, and maintains a “pull” force on the cable, also with no load. The tangential speed of the
tension roller is slower than the tangential speed of the drum when reeling in, gives a drag force on the cable and ensure that
the cable wraps on the drum are tight under all conditions.
The control pendant assembly provides the crewman with freedom of movement while utilizing the following control
features:
— Load mode select.
— Direction/speed control.
— ICS.
— Warning light.
— The direction/speed control thumb wheel is centrally located on the shrouded upper portion of the handgrip. Except
for the ICS switch, all controls are partially guarded to reduce the possibility of inadvertent operation. A bracket is
provided on the handgrip to facilitate stowing the pendant in the aircraft. The pendant is equipped with an electrical
connector for interfacing with the controller.
25-91-00
Page 2 Rev. 3
E-AB412-PT6T-2
— The 250 lb/600 lb (114/273 Kg) control is a two-position (maintained) toggle switch used to signal the system for either
the 250 lb/114 Kg mode or 600 lb/273 Kg mode.
— The heart of the control pendant is the direction/speed control mechanism containing and actuating two switches and
a potentiometer. Two of the switches (one for either direction) provide an on-off signal. The potentiometer is rotated
by the control thumb wheel to provide a speed command signal to the controller assembly.
The ICS control is a snap action switch provided for connection to the aircraft intercom system. The switch is operated by
an auxiliary actuator which protrudes from the back of the handgrip.
The cable payout display provides the hoist operator with a visual indication on the pendant of how much cable is extended
from the hoist in feet (on Control P/N CP700-1) or in meters (on Control P/N CP-700-2). The display is sunlight readable
and NVG compatible.
An Anvis green warning light provides the hoist operator with a visual indication of two fault conditions:
— Motor over temperature - Steady light.
Control pendant cable assembly, is supplied with the hoist system to interconnect the control pendant, and controller.
Adapter link cable assembly, is also supplied with the system to interconnect the controller with the aircraft’s dc power
supply.
The control pendant assembly provides the crewman with freedom of movement while utilizing the following control
features:
— Digital readout to indicate the quantity of cable paid out from the hoist.
— Direction/speed control.
— Warning light.
— SX-16 power controls (on Control P/N CP1500-6 and Control CP1500-16).
— The direction/speed control thumb wheel is centrally located on the shrouded upper part of the handgrip. A bracket on
the handgrip facilitates stowage of the pendant in the aircraft. The pendant includes an electrical connector and a digital
cable pay out to interface with the speed controller.
— The heart of the control pendant is the direction/speed control mechanism that contains and operates two switches and
a potentiometer. Two of the switches (one for either direction) provide an on-off signal. The potentiometer is rotated
by the control thumb wheel to provide a speed command signal to the controller assembly.
The ICS control is a snap action switch provided for connection to the helicopter intercom system. The switch is operated
by an auxiliary actuator which comes out from the back of the handgrip.
The cable payout display provides the hoist operator with a visual indication on the pendant of how much cable is extended
from the hoist. The display is sunlight readable and NVG compatible.
A green warning light gives to the hoist operator a visual indication of two fault conditions:
— Motor over temperature - Steady light.
— 250 lb (113 Kg) overload blinking light. This display is sunlight readable and NVG compatible. The NVG mode is set
by the pilot or hoist operator through a switch input to the control box.

The control pendant assembly has searchlight controls that comprise an on/off/stow selector, and a direction control switch.
The on/off/stow switch applies power to the searchlight, and brings back the searchlight to the stowed position. The
four-position searchlight control switch permits to the hoist operator to control the searchlight to the right, left, extend or
return positions.
Control pendant cable assembly, is supplied with the hoist system to interconnect the control pendant, and controller.
Adapter link cable assembly, is also supplied with the system to interconnect the controller with the aircraft’s dc power
supply.
3. Remove the control pendant assembly, with the control pendant cable, from the helicopter.
The control box is installed on the helicopter cabin roof inside of transmission firing.
1. Put the control box in position and secure it with mounting hardware.

The following information is provided to facilitate maintenance personnel to observe good cable handling practices while
removing and installing the cable before and after maintenance on the cable.
— Rescue hoist cables are subjected to severe operating conditions. Properly applied operating technics and inspection
and maintenance procedures can extend cable life considerably and eliminate causes of fouling failures, resulting in a
greater degree of safety during hoisting operations.
— Rescue hoist cables are made of strands of stainless steel. Nineteen strands consisting of seven individual wires each
are used to achieve a flexible, spin-restraint cable.
— Cable strength is on the order of four times working load; therefore, cable breakage failures will not occur unless the
cable is damaged and proper maintenance guidelines are not followed.
— Proper hoist function depends on the wrap of the cable on the hoist drum and the cable load created by the tension
roller system. If the wrapped cable loses tension, fouling will occur.
WARNING
NOTE
In the operation of the hoist, the cable rate is automatically slowed to a safe speed
when the hoist is operated near the end of the cable travel (full in and full out) by
redundant, intermediate limit switches.
1. Redundant limit switches control full in, full out, and intermediate cable travel with the purposes that follow
(see figure 2):
a. The up intermediate switch (S1) slows down the rescue hoist speed when reeling in, and within a specified
distance from full in switch actuation.
b. The down intermediate switch (S1) slows down the rescue hoist speed when reeling out, and within a specified
distance from full out switch actuation.
c. The full out switch (S2) stops rescue hoist operation at a specified number of dead wraps on the cable drum.
25-91-00
Rev. 3 Page 5
E-AB412-PT6T-2
d. The full in switch (S3) stops rescue hoist operation when the bumper assembly makes contact with the cable
guide.
The limit switches are directly connected to the hoist drum to control full out and intermediate cable positions (hook
approach to helicopter and approach to full extension). The cable full in switch is built into the cable guide to ensure of
proper homing of the hook.
WARNING
The hoist is equipped with a cable cutter that is located in the cable guide; it has an electrically fired pressure cartridge
(squib), a cable cutter, and an anvil to cut the cable in an emergency. At 28 Vdc, the minimum all-fire current of the cartridge
is 5.0 amp per bridge wire and the minimum no-fire current for the cartridge is 1,0 amp. The cartridge is contained in a
pressure cartridge kit, which is supplied with the system. The kit has one cartridge in a hermetically sealed container, three
shims, and one O-ring, all to be used for the installation of the cartridge.
WARNING
The hoist includes a cable foul sensor, which is a switch actuated safety device, and is mounted on the hoist’s flanges parallel
to the drum axis. This cable foul sensor is made to interrupt the power to the hoist motor if a cable foul develops on the hoist
drum, and to prevent possible cable breakage because of continued cable entanglement.
The variable speed controller is a speed control which incorporates the latest pulse-width-modulated speed control
techniques.
Hoist speed control is done through a speed command applied to the controller from the variable speed operator’s pendant
control or from the constant speed priority override pilot’s control switch.
The greater the deflection of the thumb wheel on the hoist operator’s pendant control assembly, the greater average DC
voltage applied to the motor, hence, faster cable speeds.
25-91-00
Page 6 Rev. 3
E-AB412-PT6T-2
Full deflection of the thumb wheel on the pendant control assembly applies maximum voltage to the DC motor, hence,
maximum cable speed.
The signal that controls the direction of cable motion also is sent to the controller and processed by a circuit located in its
main board. The board includes a time delay that allows a minimum lapse of inactive time, which is recommended for proper
switching of hoist operation between cable up to cable down directions.
The variable speed controller, being highly efficient, dissipates minimal power. The heat sink on the side of the controller is
used to decrease heat from the controller and installation must be vertical with the heat sink that points up or horizontal for
heat dissipation.
2. Attach the variable speed controller to the support with the four screws.
1. Position the sliding panel on helicopter with forward edge in line with aft end of door tracks.

INTERNAL RESCUE HOIST (P/N 214-706-003-103)
An electrical powered hoist is provided to enable pick-up or delivery of personnel or cargo in areas not suitable for helicopter
landing.
A receptacle is mounted centrally in the roof of the aft cabin to provide power to the hoist when the hoist is installed. The
hoist is a portable assembly. It consists of a winch with cable and hook, boom head, a control unit for the crewman operator
and accessories which include a safety vest, hoisting sling and straps for lifting a litter.
Two control locations for the operation of the hoist are provided: one for the pilot and one for the hoist operator. The pilot's
hoist control switch is located on the collective control stick; the hoist operator's controls are located on the hoist control
pendant.
The crew hoist operator's control has sufficient cord to permit full movement about the cabin. In operation, the boom
assembly electrically traverses outboard to position the boom head and cable beyond the skid landing gear. The boom
assembly will electrically traverse inboard when loaded to full capacity in order to assist in getting the load onboard.
An electrically initiated, ballistically actuated cable cutter (guillotine) is provided with two grounded electrical switches.
The pilot's cable cut switch (figure 1) is located on the center pedestal and the hoist operator's cable cut switch is mounted
on top of the hoist control box.
The hoist has a 90 m (260 ft) cable length (of which 76 m (250 ft) is usable) a 272 kg (600 lb) rate load and lift speed of 38
m (125 ft) per minute.
The system is powered by 28 V dc and is protected by three circuit breakers labeled HOIST CABLE CUT, HOIST PWR
and HOIST CONT.

EXTERNAL RESCUE HOIST [B]
The rescue hoist is secured to a support installed on the RH side of the helicopter roof.
Maximum loads are 600 lb (272 kg). The hydraulic motor drives the cable drum which can reel in or pay out 240 ft (73 m)
of 3/16 in (4,76 mm) diameter corrosion-resistant steel cable. The self-energizing type brake enables the operator to stop the
cable at any desired length and hold it in place, with or without a load.
The drum and brake housings are partially filled with oil for lubrication and cooling. The level wind mechanism serves to
distribute cable evenly on the reel and limit switches provide automatic stopping of the hoist at extreme upper and lower
cable positions. An intermediate limit switch actuates the flow control valve to limit the speed to 98 ft/min (30 m/min) when
about 7,0 ft (2,1 m) from full extend or retract. This to assure the reeling-in speed reduction when the hoist is still below
landing gear skid.
A ballistic-type guillotine cartridge permits shearing of the hoist cable in case of emergency. An oil filler hole and sight gage
on the hydraulic motor-end of the hoist housing are used for servicing the hoist.

25-92-06
EXTERNAL RESCUE HOIST - UTILITY HYDRAULIC SYSTEM (FOR
EXTERNAL RESCUE HOIST) [B] [C]
The utility hydraulic system (figure 1, figure 2) provides hydraulic power to operate the external rescue hoist. The system
consists of a pump (14, figure 1) which, after pressurizing the fluid in the reservoir (10), directs it to the rescue hoist motor.
Valves and governors convey fluid from the pump (14) to the directional control valve (21). The valve (21) controls the
raising or lowering of the rescue hoist and may be actuated by either the pilot or the operator using the HOIST (UP-DOWN)
switches located respectively on the pilot's collective lever and on the operator pendant control.
Control is assigned to the pilot or to the operator by means of the HOIST PWR (CREW-OFF-PILOT) switch located on the
central pedestal.
When pilot or operator actuates the hoist using either of these switches, the electro valve (27) become deenergized and
pressure line is activated, then, the solenoid controlling the flow valve (18) becomes energized, causing fluid to flow through
the governor (19) to the shut-off valve (20). When passing through the governor (19) which is se a t 7,38 lt/min (1,62 gall/
min), fluid pressure is reduced form 210 to 105 kg./cm² (from 3000 to 1500psi). Under these conditions, raising and lowering
speeds are about 30 m/min (98 feet).
The rescue hoist may also be controlled manually by the operator using a manual selector valve (22). In this case the shut-off
valve (20) remains closed and the flow valve (18) being de-energized, is able to direct fluid to the manual selector valve (22)
by causing it to pass through the governor (7). The governor, without altering the pressure, regulates the flow at 14,76 lt7min
(3,25 gall/min).
The manual selector valve (22) permits the operator to select a raising or lowering speed between 0 to 60 m/min. (0 and 197
feet per minute) by setting the selector valve lever to the position UP and DOWN. Two limit switches ensure that the raising
and lowering speed during the last 2 m (6 feet) of travel is reduced to 30m/min (98 feet per minute) even when the distributor
lever has been set to a higher speed.
The manual selector valve also permits the rescue hoist to be used in the event of electrical failure. In this case the directional
control valve must be pre-set by two buttons fitted on the valve.
System operating pressure is 3000 psi. If pressure falls below this value, the pressure switch (5) installed on the pump supply
line illuminated the warning lamp UTL HYDR PRESS, on the caution panel. A pressure relief valve installed in the supply
line discharges excessive pressure in the system into the return line.
The system is provided with an heat exchanger located in the LH engine compartment near the cabin roof bulkhead and
consists of a radiator and a fan. The fan produces a flow of air which cools the fluid of the return circuit during hoist
operation or the fluid from the pump return port when the hoist is not operated. A thermal switch provides the start or stop
the fan when the fluid temperature rises to 68 °C or falls below 63 °C.
A thermostat valve incorporated in the exchanger opens and directs fluid directly to the reservoir, by-passing the cooler when
fluid temperature falls below 27 °C.
25-92-06
Page 1
E-AB412-PT6T-2
Temperature and hydraulic pressure indications are provided by a thermometer and pressure gauge installed n the pedestal.
The temperature indicator system is energized by 28 Vdc and protected by the No.1 HIDR TEMP circuit breaker, while the
pressure indicator system is energized by 26 Vac and protected by the 26 Vac 3 HYDR circuit breaker located on the
overhead console panel. The system is also fitted with receptacles for ground testing (15).
Either the pilot or the operator may fire the cable shear cartridge, if required, by operating the HOIST CABLE CUT switch
located on the central pedestal, for the pilot, and on the cabin ceiling, for the operator; the operator’s switch is only
operational when the HOIST PWR PILOT/OFF/CREW selector switch is set to CREW.
Faulty wiring in the guillotine circuit can be detected by means of the hoist shear circuit test box located on the RH door
post. When the FIRE-TEST switch on the text box is set to TEST and the HOIST CABLE CUT switch is operated, the TEST
light, on the same box, illuminates; for normal operation the FIRE-TEST switch must be set to FIRE. The rescue hoist
system is energized by 28 V DC and protected by the HOIST CABLE CUT circuit breaker located on the overhead console
panel.

The utility hydraulic system is provided with a self-regulating, axial-piston type pump which is actuated by a fixed-cylinder
cam. The two main functions of the pump are:
To provide necessary flow or fluid under pressure to operate the rescue hoist:
To interrupt or re-establish automatically this flow according to the demands of the system.
The pump is actuated by a drivequill installed on the LH side of the transmission case, above the rotor brake disc, and is
self-regulating at pressure between 2500 and 3000 psi (175 to 210 kg/cm²).
The pump flow, which is constant and proportional to the pump rotation speed, is supplied by fluid in the reservoir for
transmission to the operating circuit.
When pressure increase, an internal self-regulating pressure device short-circuits the fluid absorbed by reducing the effective
pumping stroke of the pistons and by setting the final self-regulating position at the stabilized maximum pressure.
The power required to make the pump rotate is consequently very low.
When the pump operates under self-regulating conditions, fluid circulation is maintained by means of a forced pumping
action which, via the recovery intake, convey fluid back to the reservoir through the heat exchanger. The flow to the
pressurized circuit is then limited to making up the fluid losses within the circuit.
When pressure decreases, the self-regulating device establisher the full or partial pump flow to the operational circuit. Given
the minimum inertia of the parts forming the system, the pump immediately regulates the flow according to circuit demands.
2. PUMP - REMOVAL
3. Disconnect the lines from the pump and collect the fluid in a container. Put a plug on al connections.
5. Remove the bolts and nuts and remove the pump from the drivequill. Pull the pump horizontally to prevent damages
to the shaft splines.
6. Put a plug or a cover on the drivequill to keep out dirt and other unwanted material.

NUMBER NOMENCLATURE
NOTE
Install the insulating ring P/N 8072-14 between the pump and the transmission quill.
1. Lubricate the drivequill splines with lubricant Plastilube Moly No.3 or release agent (C-555).
2. Put the shaft into the drivequill splines. Then, align the flange holes and install the bolts and nuts.
3. Remove the plugs from the line connections and connect the lines to the pump.
a. Check that the pump has been filled with hydraulic fluid.
NOTE
It is recommended to fill the pump before the installation, but this can also be done
with the pump installed slowly rotating main rotor and fill the hydraulic fluid
through the suction port. During this operation the fitting of supply line must be
removed to allow the escape of air.
d. Bleed the hydraulic fluid until all the air was expelled from the line, then install the nut.
4. PUMP - INSPECTION
1. Manually rotate the shaft to remove the fluid from the pump.
2. Inspect the shaft for binding. Rotate the shaft and make sure that is is not bound or jammed and that is rotates freely.
NOTE
The check for freedom of rotation of the pump is possible only in this way. Do not
rotate the pump in its circuit full of hydraulic fluid. The pumping effect of the
pistons cause the pump to be apparently stiff.
3. Look through the intake port and inspect the piston drive components. Make sure that there are no metal particles in
the pump.

FIRE DETECTION - ENGINE FIRE DETECTION
Engine compartment fire detection consists of two heat sensing elements and two flexible cable assemblies for each power
section of the engine. A press-to-test switch is provided to test the system.
If a fire or overheat condition occurs, the heat sensing elements in the affected power section closes a circuit which causes
the corresponding FIRE PULL handle (located on the instrument panel) to illuminate. Pulling the handle turns off the heater
by de-energizing both bleed air valves and causes the engine air management bypass door and the fuel shutoff valve to close
shutting off both air and fuel to the affected power section. Pulling FIRE 1 PULL or FIRE 2 PULL handle also arms the
main and reserve fire extinguisher circuits for the corresponding power section. Placing the FIRE EXT switch to MAIN
causes the main fire extinguisher bottle to discharge extinguishing agent (Halon and nitrogen) into the selected power section
compartment. Placing the FIRE EXT switch to RESERVE discharges the reserve fire extinguisher bottle into the same
compartment.
Pressing the FIRE EXT PRESS TO TEST switch places a low resistance across each of the fire sensing elements to simulate
a fire/overheat condition. If sensing elements are operating properly, both FIRE 1 PULL and FIRE 2 PULL handles will
illuminate.
The upper fire detection sensing elements are mounted on the underside of the upper engine cowling (figure 1).
NOTE
Maintenance procedures are the same for both left and right upper sensing elements.
3. Remove screw (9) from clamp (8). Remove screws from six remaining clamps in same manner.

FIRE DETECTION - BAGGAGE COMPARTMENT SMOKE DETECTION
SYSTEM
The baggage compartment smoke detector is a closed assembly housing solid-state electronic components and a light
sensitive detector. The detector (4, figure 1) is located in the forward end of the baggage compartment roof. A protective
screen is installed over the detector to provide protection from items stowed in the compartment. The instant smoke reduces
light transmission in the baggage compartment 30 to 35% below that of clear air, the detector causes the BAGGAGE FIRE
warning light on the instrument panel to flash intermittently. For more detailed description and wiring diagrams, refer to
Chapters 96 and 98.
The BAGGAGE FIRE TEST switch provides a means to test the baggage smoke detection system.

FIRE EXTINGUISHERS - ENGINE COMPARTMENT FIRE EXTINGUISHERS
The two engine compartment fire extinguishing bottles are interconnected by tubing to allow either container to be
discharged into either power section compartment (figure 1). Therefore, in the event discharging the first (main) bottle fails
to extinguish a fire, the second (reserve) bottle may be discharged into the same compartment.
The containers (figure 2) are spherical steel assemblies charged with freon and nitrogen to approximately 600 psi. If the
container is discharged, no special cleaning is required because of the non-corrosive properties of the extinguishing agent.
Each container has two outlets each equipped with electrically actuated pyrotechnic cartridges, a guarded pressure gage, and
a fill and thermal relief fitting connected to a discharge indicator disc. A pressure/temperature correction decal is attached
to each cylinder to aid during inspection and servicing.
In the event a container is subjected to excessive heat, the fill and thermal relief fitting will open and allow the extinguishing
agent to escape. During this process, the discharge indicator disc will be blown out to provide a visual indication of the event.
NOTE
Maintenance procedures for both fire extinguisher containers are the same.

FUEL SYSTEM - FUEL STORAGE AND DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM
(HELICOPTERS CODES [A][B])
The following paragraphs provide a functional description of the components which store and deliver fuel to the engine
power sections for helicopters codes [A][B].
The fuel system (figure 1 and figure 2) is comprised of fuel storage cells, transfer system, venting system, dual engine feed
system, and electrical control and warning systems. The system is designed to provide fuel containment in the event of an
accident or incident during which fuel system rupture might occur. The cells are of a crash-resistant, laminated fabric and
rubber construction. The cells are suspended in the fuselage cavities by nylon cord laced between hangers attached to the
cells and fuselage structure.
The fuel system has a maximum capacity of 217 U.S. gallons (211 U.S. gallons usable). Fuel is contained in five
interconnected cells (1, 8, 13, 19, and 33, figure 1). The two forward cells (19 and 33), located under the cabin floor, are
supplied continuously by gravity feed from the three aft cells (1, 8, and 13). Under normal conditions, each forward cell
supplies fuel to the power section located on the same side of the helicopter. However, if boost pump (16 or 28) in either cell
ceases to function, crossfeed valve (4) opens automatically to permit flow from remaining pump to be directed to both power
sections.
Forward cells (19 and 33) are divided into forward and aft compartments by baffles (17 and 34). The aft compartments
contain sump assemblies (16 and 28) equipped with electrically operated boost pumps, crashworthy defueling valves, flow
switches connected to the FUEL BOOST caution panel segments, sump drain valves, sump interconnect valves, and low
fuel level warning switches connected to the FUEL LOW caution panel segments. The forward cells are connected by
forward and aft interconnect lines which are normally closed by electrically controlled interconnect valves (24 and 31).
These valves may be opened by the pilot to permit flow between cells. Fuel quantity probes (tank units) (25, 26, 29, and 35)
are installed in each compartment. Flapper valves (18 and 30) in baffles (17 and 34) between compartments allow front to
back flow. Ejector pumps (20 and 32) mounted on cell front walls continuously send fuel back over baffles (17 and 34) to
aft compartments to ensure maximum usability of fuel at all helicopter attitudes.
The three aft cells (1, 8, and 13) are aligned laterally across the fuselage. The right aft cell (1) supplies the right forward cell
(33), and the left aft cell (8) supplies the left forward cell (19). Interconnect fittings (11 and 22) connect the center aft cell
(13) to right and left aft cells (1 and 8) to maintain the same fuel level in all three aft cells. The helicopter is fueled through
a filler cap and adapter assembly (2) is installed on the right aft cell (1) for system servicing. A fuel quantity probe (23) is
installed in center cell (13). Capped connections for use with auxiliary fuel tanks are provided on system vent lines and on
fittings located aft of each forward cell (19 and 33).
The center aft cell (13) is vented through a line attached to vent cover (5). Right and left aft cells (1 and 8) are vented through
fittings (7 and 41) attached to ports in top of cells. Crashworthy vent valves (27 and 36) are used to vent forward cells (19
and 33).
A cover (9) on rear of center aft cell (13) provides main point of access to cell interior. Vent cover (5) may also be removed
for access when necessary. The rear cover contains two governor bleed line check valves (10) that enable excess fuel from
each engine fuel control to return to center aft cell (13).
Fuel is drained from center aft cell (13) through outlet fittings (12 and 38) mounted on underside of cell. Similarly, fuel is
drained from right and left aft cells (1 and 8) through outlet fittings (14 and 39) attached to underside of cells. Fuel enters
and leaves forward cells (19 and 33) through inlet/outlet fittings (15 and 37) installed in rear walls of aft compartment of
cells.

Two siphon breaker valves (21) are installed in vent lines near left shutoff valve (40) to prevent fuel loss due to siphoning
through vent tubes.
Engine fuel feed line pressure (boost pump pressure) is sensed by fuel pressure transmitters (3 and 6), and corresponding
electrical signals are transmitted to pressure (FUEL PRESS) indicators located in instrument panel.

FUEL STORAGE AND DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM (HELICOPTERS CODES
[C][D])
The following paragraphs provide a functional description for the fuel system components for helicopters codes [C][D]
which store and deliver fuel to the engine power sections.
The fuel system (figure 1 and figure 2) is comprised of fuel storage cells, transfer system, venting system, dual engine feed
system, and electrical control and warning systems. The system is designed to provide fuel containment in the event of an
accident or incident where fuel system rupture might occur. The cells are of a lightweight, crash-resistant, laminated fabric
and rubber construction. The cells are suspended in the fuselage cavities by nylon cord laced between hangers attached to
the cells and the fuselage structure.
The ten interconnected cells (1, 5, 8, 9, 13, 16, 22, 26, 28, and 34, figure 1) have a total capacity of approximately 337,5 U.S.
gallons (approximately 330,5 U.S. gallons usable). A quantity of fuel, 131 U.S. gallons (65,5 U.S. gallons per side), is
reserved by use of internal barriers and an interconnect valve to provide an isolated fuel supply for each engine.
There are six cells below the cabin floor and four cells located below engine compartments aft of cabin and pylon. The
helicopter is fueled through a filler cap and adapter assembly (2) in upper right cell (1). Fuel gravity feeds from upper cells
into lower cells through interconnecting lines. Transfer pumps (located on left and right forward sump assemblies) are used
to transfer fuel from lower forward cells (16 and 22) and lower middle cells (13 and 26) aft to lower main cells (9 and 28)
and from there through feed lines to the two engine fuel inlets.
The lower forward cell sump areas (18 and 21) contain fuel sump assemblies equipped with transfer pumps and drain valves.
The lower middle cell sump areas (12 and 25) contain sump assemblies equipped with drain valves. Ejector pumps (15 and
27) are installed near the lower middle cell sump assemblies. The lower main cell sump areas (10 and 29) contain sump
assemblies equipped with defueling valves, drain valves, flow switch check valves, and boost pumps.
Sump drain valves in the lower main cells (9 and 28) have solenoids and may be opened by either electrical or manual
actuation. Sump drain valves in other lower cells are manually operated, push-to-drain types. All six valves are
spring-loaded, poppet type valves. Defueling valves located in the lower main cell sump assemblies require removal of a
plug and insertion of a standard fitting to open the spring-loaded poppet.
A collective vent line on top of upper aft center cell connects the four upper cell vent spaces with two vertical lines (one
behind upper right cell (1) and one behind upper aft cell (5) which vent overboard beneath the fuselage. Each lower main
cell vents through a line connecting into the upper forward center cell. A forward vent line on each side of the fuselage
connects with the respective lower forward and lower middle cells. These lines rise through the doorposts to a waterline
above the upper cells and then double back downward to vent overboard beneath the fuselage.
To enable fuel transfer, an interconnect system joins lower cells together and also joins lower cells with upper
cells. Fuel drainage from upper cells to lower cells is controlled by standpipes that sequence depletion flow
among cells to maintain desired center-of-gravity during in-flight consumption. Isolation barriers in the upper
center cells and a normally closed interconnect valve in the interconnect line between lower main cells provide for isolation
of individual power section fuel supplies.
28-00-02
Page 1
E-AB412-PT6T-2
Flow of fuel from the lower forward cell transfer pumps provides motive force for lower middle cell ejector pumps to pump
fuel from lower middle cells into lower main cells. For helicopters S/N 25801 and subsequent fuel is pumped into aft center
cell. Fuel level sensors, (thermistors) located in the base of lower forward cell fuel quantity probes (tank units), cause
transfer pumps to shut off automatically when lower forward cells become empty. If a flow switch check valve senses fuel
flow has stopped and fuel is still present in forward midtanks, the corresponding caution panel segment (NO 1 FUEL
TRANS or NO 2 FUEL TRANS) is illuminated. However, if the interruption in flow is due to a cell (lower forward or lower
middle) becoming empty, a thermistor in fuel quantity probe in the empty cell provides a ground to the appropriate signal
conditioner to cancel segment illumination.
All fuel passes through lower main cells, from which the power sections are supplied. Check valves (17 and 23) in lower
forward cells, flow switch check valves in lower main cells (9 and 28), and power section fuel feed line check valves prevent
backflow of fuel during periods of shutdown or crossfeed operation. The power section fuel feed line check valves (33) and
electrically operated shutoff valves (36) also provide thermal pressure relief during system shutdown. Shutoff valves isolate
fuel from engine compartment during shutdown or in event of engine fire. Fuel pressure transmitters (3 and 6) sense fuel
feed line pressure and transmit corresponding electrical signals to engine 1 and engine 2 fuel pressure (FUEL PRESS)
indicators.
A crossfeed line and normally closed crossfeed valve (4) provide optional interconnection between left and right engine fuel
feed lines. This crossfeed valve opens automatically in event failure of a boost pump is sensed by fuel pressure switch (32)
in either feed line.
The capacitance type fuel quantity indicating system uses quantity probes, signal conditioners, and a dual pointer indicator
with digital fuel totalizer. There are quantity probes in the upper left and upper right cells, and each lower cell. Fuel level
signals from quantity probes are summed in signal conditioners and transmitted to the indicator. A switch near the indicator
enables checking lower forward and lower middle cell fuel quantities separately to ensure proper balance is maintained
during any shutdown period with partially empty tanks.
Boost pumps and transfer pumps are individually controlled by two-position BOOST PUMP switches located on engine and
fuel control panel. On the same panel are four switches for valve control: ENGINE 1 FUEL and ENGINE 2 FUEL switches
to control shutoff valves (36), FUEL XFEED switch to control crossfeed valve (4), and FUEL INTCON switch to control
interconnect valve (31). All are two-position switches except FUEL INTCON switch, which is a three-position switch. The
normal position of crossfeed valve and interconnect valve is closed; the interconnect valve also has an open position. The
FUEL INTCON and FUEL XFEED switches have an override (OVRD CLOSE) position to enable valves (4 and 36) to be
closed, if necessary, after being opened automatically.
Caution light segments in the caution panel annunciate conditions which may exist within the following functional areas in
the fuel system: Fuel transfer (NO. 1 FUEL TRANS and NO. 2 FUEL TRANS), engine feed line fuel pressure (FUEL
BOOST), fuel level (FUEL LOW), fuel filter (NO. 1 FUEL FILTER and NO. 2 FUEL FILTER), firewall shutoff (fuel)
valves (NO 1. FUEL VALVE and NO. 2 FUEL VALVE), crossfeed valve (FUEL XFEED), and interconnect valve (FUEL
INTCON).
Fuel burn sequence (figure 3) is established by system design to maintain center-of-gravity within an acceptable
range. The first burn uses fuel from all upper cells above tall standpipe in upper forward center cell. The second burn
empties fuel from lower middle cells. The third burn uses fuel from all upper cells above short standpipe in upper
forward center cell. The fourth burn empties fuel from lower forward cells. The fifth burn drops fuel level to the barriers in
upper center cells that isolate engine fuel supplies, and depletes remainder of fuel in upper cells. The sixth burn uses fuel
remaining in lower main cells.
A fuel level sensor (thermistor) in each lower forward cell quantity probe signals fuel depletion at the end of the fourth burn,
thereby causing automatic transfer pump shutdown and cancellation of the respective FUEL TRANS caution light signal. A
fuel level sensor (thermistor) in each upper outboard (left and right) cell fuel quantity probe signals depletion of fuel at end
of fifth burn, causing the FUEL LOW caution light to illuminate.
Refer to Chapter 96 for maintenance instructions for electrically operated components of the system and Chapter 98 for
applicable wiring diagrams.

FUEL STORAGE AND DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM (HELICOPTERS CODES
[C][D]) - PRESSURE TESTING
NOTE
For field pressure test of the fuel system, an alternate method is to fill the helicopter
fuel cells with fuel. Inspect fuel system and the area affected by the work
accomplished for leaks. Repeat the inspection procedure to check for leaks several
times as the fuel cells are being filled.
CAUTION
2. Use regulated, low pressure, filtered, compressed nitrogen or compressed air source with a manometer or accurate
pressure gage and a shutoff valve.
CAUTION
DO NOT APPLY MORE THAN 1.0 PSIG (6.9 KPA) PRESSURE TO CELLS.
DAMAGE TO CELLS AND STRUCTURE MAY RESULT.
3. Apply 0.5 to 1.0 psig (3.5 to 6.9 kPa) pressure to all cells and tubing of the fuel system. Shut off pressure source. Verify
pressure does not decrease during 15 minute time period.
4. If leakage is detected, apply a soap and water solution to all repaired areas and to areas suspected of leaking. Make
repairs and repeat pressure test until no leaks are indicated.
5. Upon satisfactory conclusion of test, remove soap residue and remove all caps and plugs used to close off system.

28-40-08
FUEL STORAGE AND DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM (HELICOPTERS CODES
[C][D]) - FUEL QUANTITY PROBES
Eight cell mounted fuel quantity probes (tank units) (1 through 8, figure 1) are used to measure quantity (weight) of fuel in
system. The probes are variable capacitors in which capacitance varies with changes in dielectric constant of fuel and air
dielectric material present between tubes (capacitor plates) of probes. The level and density of fuel in cells determine
dielectric constant. Probe capacitance is transmitted to a self-balancing bridge network in the fuel level indicator.
A fuel quantity probe is mounted on inboard wall of each lower forward cell. The base of each probe supports a fuel level
sensor (thermistor) which causes the transfer pump to shut off automatically when cell is emptied. With cell empty, the
thermistor also provides a ground path to the signal conditioner to extinguish the associated “no transfer” (NO 1 FUEL
TRANS or NO 2 FUEL TRANS) caution light segment. When the thermistor is covered with fuel, the ground path is open,
and caution light remains on as long as the flow switch check valve senses there is no transfer flow.
NOTE
Maintenance procedures for lower left forward and lower right forward cell fuel
quantity probes are the same.

HYDRAULIC POWER
The hydraulic system is comprised of two independent systems identified as hydraulic system No. 1 and hydraulic system
No. 2. The hydraulic system No. 1 (figure 1) is located in the center of the compartment below the transmission, the
hydraulic system No. 2 (figure 2) is located on the left side of the compartment.
Each system has a non-pressurized reservoir, a variable-flow pump driven by the transmission, an integrated valve and filter
assembly, an accumulator, and check valves. Each pump is powered by a separate drive quill driven by the transmission.
The valve and filter assembly contains filters, solenoid valves, and relief valves. Fluid under pressure operates the
servo-actuators.
The two systems differ from each other because the primary system (No. 1) supplies the cyclic and collective control
actuators and the tail rotor servo-actuator while the secondary system (No. 2) supplies the cyclic and collective controls
actuators only. The two hydraulic systems are provided with external fittings for connection to the test stand for maintenance
and testing
The three dual hydraulic servo actuators in cyclic and collective flight control systems are operated by both hydraulic
systems. Two isolated sets of passages and piston chambers inside the servo actuators maintain integrity of each system. In
event of failure in one system, the remaining system will continue to operate the servo actuators.
The directional control (anti-torque) system servoactuator is operated by hydraulic system No. 1 only; therefore, hydraulic
system No. 1 has a larger rated volume pump than hydraulic system No. 2.
Hydraulic system No. 2 has a pulsation damper between pump and integrated valve and filter assembly. Hydraulic system
No. 1 does not have a pulsation damper.
Both hydraulic systems have a temperature bulb located at reservoir inlet and a pressure transmitter at module outlet. These
sensors are connected to a hydraulic pressure/temperature gauge on the instrument panel. In addition, a temperature switch
at reservoir inlet causes the appropriate NO.1 HYDRAULIC or NO. 2 HYDRAULIC caution segment on the caution/
warning panel to illuminate if hydraulic fluid temperature reaches 190F (88C). A pressure switch at module outlet
energizes the same segment if pressure drops below 650 psi (4481.6 kPa).
Each valve and filter assembly has two red indicator buttons for the two filters, and is also electrically connected to a remote
warning indicator located in the cabin nose (visible through the right nose window) forward and below pedestal of the pilot
station. If any of the four filters becomes clogged enough to cause a differential pressure of 70 ± 10 psi (483 ± 69 kPa) across
the element, this differential pressure will cause the adjacent red button to extend and the remote indicator to change from
green to red or, cause the “cats-eye” indicator to turn from black to white, as applicable. The remote indicator will remain
red, and the red button will remain extended until the clogged filter element is cleaned or changed and both indicators are
reset. The remote indicator is intended to provide an impending bypass indication. If the remote indicator keeps going back
to red after being reset and the indicators on the filter and valve assemblies are not extended, the remote indicator is very
likely defective. It will be acceptable to return helicopter to service with noted condition, provided the indicators on the filter
and valve assemblies are not extended and until such time the remote indicator may be repaired.

Rev. 3 Page 1
E-AB412-PT6T-2
In normal operation of each system, hydraulic fluid is supplied from non-pressurized reservoirs by gravity feed and suction
to a transmission driven pump. The pumps are variable delivery types with internal pressure compensation, preset to provide
1000 ± 25 psi (6895 ± 172 kPa) output pressure at operating RPM, according to system demands. Pump output is delivered
to the module and passes through the pressure filter. A relief valve in the module guards the system against excessive
pressure, being set to open at 1100 psi (7584 kPa). The system solenoid valve is normally de-energized and open to the SYS
PRESS outlet of the module but can be electrically energized to OFF position by means of the HYDR SYS NO. 1 and HYDR
SYS NO. 2 switches. The figure 3 provides a hydraulic system schematic.

The following provides guide lines for allowable external leakage of in-service hydraulic system components, and suggested
methods of measuring such leakage.
1. Scope — Limits described are only for components in service in helicopter hydraulic systems. Intent is to minimize
replacement of hydraulic components which are still serviceable.
a. These limits may differ from those contained in various specifications for components, which are intended to
control quality, assembly, and proper functioning. Components in service sometimes develop leakage rates in
excess of specification limits, without necessarily becoming detrimental to the system or failing to provide
reliable operation.
b. These limits are not to be used as basis for acceptance or rejection of components of any bench functional test
or systems on new helicopters.
c. These limits are not applicable to self-contained closed-compartment hydraulic units such as viscous dampers,
liquid springs, or oleo struts.
2. Causes of Leakage — Some seepage is normally present, since static or dynamic seals are not functionally perfect, due
to such causes as follows:
a. A film of hydraulic fluid being retained by metal surfaces, such as piston rods, and thus carried past seals. This
film is necessary for seal lubrication.
3. Classification of Leakage — External leakages of hydraulic fluid can be broadly classified as excessive or allowable.
a. Excessive Leakage: Fluid leakage such that hydraulic reservoir level may be dangerously lowered or depleted
during normal operation, or fire hazard created, or airworthiness of helicopter otherwise comprised.
b. Allowable Leakage: Fluid leakage such that quantity lost is insignificant, no detrimental effect on helicopter
operation, and correction does not warrant maintenance time involved.
c. General: Leakage usually shows as a seepage, stain, or wet area. It is possible for allowable leakage or seepage
to collect in a cavity or depression in adjacent structure over a period of time and falsely indicate excessive
leakage. Accumulation on a flat area or a white-painted surface often appears to be excessive, though actually
being allowable. It is also possible to have enough components with allowable leakages that the combined
leakage is excessive.
4. Leakage Checks — Measurement of leakage rates, for classification according to table 2, can be performed as follows:
a. When hydraulic systems have remained in a static, unpressurized condition for an appreciable period of time,
leakage checks should not be performed immediately after starting. Activate systems and cycle components
several times. Wipe off any accumulated hydraulic fluid before making leakage checks.
b. Where location of a component does not permit direct observation, measure leakage on a flat surface, either part
of structure below the component or a panel temporarily positioned for that purpose. Wipe surface clean and
place a drop of fluid on area, allow to stabilize, then outline area with soft lead pencil before wiping off fluid.
Pressurize system and cycle component to observe leakage rate, comparing wetted surface to marked one-drop
area.
c. Where fluid leaking from a component can be directly observed, pressurize and cycle the component until a drop
falls free. Continue operating, observing time until next drop to determine leakage rate.
d. For tests requiring long periods of time and where fluid can drop, wipe surface clean and dry without using a
solvent. Use a clean blotter or white cloth after system has operated or has been idle the required period of time.

HYDRAULIC SYSTEM COMPONENTS - HYDRAULIC RESERVOIR
The hydraulic system reservoir No. 1 consists of a non-pressurized, magnesium alloy unit located on the R.H. side of the
cabin roof.
The reservoir has a capacity of 0.55 gal (2,5 liters) at overflow and of 1.3 liters (0.29 gal) at refill level. It is fitted with a
sight-gauge, a filler cap and screen, a screened vent, a scupper with overboard drain line and two connections for supply (to
pump) and return (from-system) lines.
The reservoir has a sight glass for visual indication of fluid level. Decals on the reservoirs give reservoir capacity, filling
instructions and type hydraulic fluid required. Each hydraulic system have temperature bulbs reservoir capacity, filling
instructions and type fluid required. Each hydraulic system have a temperature bulbs and temperature switch installed in the
system return fitting of the reservoir. Temperature sensed by the temperature bulbs is transmitted to instruments on the pilot
instrument panel.
The purpose of the switches is to cause the following lights to illuminate in the event that hydraulic fluid temperature
exceeds 88°C (190°F):

HYDRAULIC SYSTEM COMPONENTS - VALVES
Hydraulic system No.1 and hydraulic system No.2 have separate integrated valve and filter assemblies. Each assembly is
comprised of a valve body with the following components installed: pressure filter, return filter, pressure relief valve,
thermal relief valve, return shutoff valve, clogged filter indicators, clogged filter switch, and a solenoid-operated valve
which allows fluid to flow in either direction in event of system failure. The pressure and return filters are completely
separate. Each filter is provided with an indicator button which extends at 70 psi (483 kPa) differential pressure across the
filter. This indicator gives a visual indication of filter clogging. The indicator button described above trips an electrical
switch on the integrated valve and filter assembly which causes an indicator located in helicopter nose compartment to
change from green to red. The indicator is visible through the right nose window.
The system pressure relief valve opens at 1100 psi (7584.23 kPa) to allow fluid to return to reservoir.
The return shutoff valve is pressure operated. When system pressure decreases, the shutoff valve closes to maintain pressure
in cyclic, collective, and directional servo actuators.
The thermal relief valve prevents damage to hydraulic system components due to excessive pressure buildup by trapped
hydraulic fluid when helicopter is not operating.
The solenoid operated system bypass valve is normally de-energized. In the event of failure of hydraulic system No.1, the
pilot can position HYDR SYS NO. 1 switch to OFF. This will cause bypass valve to directly connect pressure port to return
port to prevent hydraulic lock within hydraulic system No.1.
Operation of the corresponding valve in hydraulic system No.2 is the same except the pilot positions HYDR SYS NO. 2
switch to OFF.
NOTE
Except as noted, the following procedures are the same for hydraulic systems No.1
and 2.
1. Remove access panel on forward side of pylon support inside cabin, for hydraulic system No.1.

NO. 2 AND NO. 3 [B] [C]
The hydraulic system reservoir No. 2 consists of a non-pressurized, aluminum alloy unit located on the L.H side of the cabin
roof and provides support to the utility hydraulic system reservoir No. 3.
The reservoir has a capacity of 0.395 gal (1.8 lt). Capacity at minimum level is 0.30 gal (1.4 lt). It is fitted with a sight-gauge,
a filler cap and screen, a screened vent, a drain tap, a scupper with over-board drain line and two connections for supply (to
pump) and return (from system) lines.
The reservoir has a sight glass for visual indication of fluid level. Decals on the reservoirs give reservoir capacity, filling
instructions and type hydraulic fluid required. Each hydraulic System have temperature bulbs and temperature switch
installed in the System return fitting of the reservoir. Temperature sensed by the temperature bulbs is transmitted to
instruments on the pilot instrument panel.
The purpose of the switches is to cause the following lights to illuminate in the event that hydraulic fluid temperature
exceeds 88°C (190°F):
— MASTER CAUTION light on instrument panel.
In the event the HYDRAULIC CAUTION segment illuminates the pilot can verify whether fault is high temperature or low
pressure in hydraulic system No. 1 or hydraulic system No. 2 from separate instrument readings.

LANDING GEAR
The landing gear consist of two longitudinal skid tubes and two arched cross tubes for attachment to fuselage and to provide
shock absorption on account of their elasticity. The skid tubes are aluminium alloy construction and are provided with
protective shoes along their whole length.
The aluminium alloy cross tubes are attached to the fuselage at four points. To allow handling, the landing gear is provided
with fittings for the ground handling wheels which are supplied with the helicopter, and with two tow rings located on the
forward section of the skid tubes.
An auxiliary, electrically operated passenger step may be installed on standard skid gear.

LANDING GEAR ASSEMBLY
The landing gear is fabricated from aluminum alloy tubes. The gear consists of two skids attached on ends of two arched
crosstubes. The forward crosstube is fitted with two supports which contact mating supports in helicopter structure. The
forward crosstube is secured to helicopter structure with two cap fittings. The aft crosstube has a support beam which
contacts mating supports in helicopter structure and is secured to helicopter with two cap fittings similar to forward
crosstube. The function of the support beam on aft crosstube is to reduce possibility of ground resonance.
CAUTION
NOTE
The landing gear can be removed as a complete assembly or individual components
may be removed separately.

There are two methods for bonding the band style clamp at BL 14,0. The first method installs clamp (330C400-338S) to the
crosstube using sealant (C-251). The second method uses the same clamp with a composite material bonded to the inside
surface for enhanced corrosion protection. The clamp assembly is reidentified as 412-050-045-115. This method also
incorporates an abrasion strip that is bonded to the lower surface of the crosstube prior to the bonding of the clamp assembly
to the crosstube using (C-251).
In the center position BL 0,0, the upper support has a primer (C-253) and a ply of adhesive film (C-252) bonded to the inside
faying surface. This upper support is bonded to the crosstube surface prepared with primer (C-253). The support is finally
bonded to the prepared surface using adhesive (C-317).
The lower support is bonded to an abrasion strip (Larson L101) (raw material size 0.020 x 5.0 x 6.0 in) that is bonded to the
crosstube. This support is bonded into position on the lower surface of the crosstube using sealant (C-308).

MAIN ROTOR HUB AND BLADES
The main rotor hub and blade consists of the hub, four main rotor blades and four pitch horns. Each main rotor blade is
connected to hub by either two fixed diameter bolts or one fixed diameter bolt on leading edge side of rotor blade and an
expandable bolt on trailing edge side of rotor blade. The purpose of expandable bolts (when used) is to facilitate removal of
bolts when rotor blades are folded. The main rotor droop restraint assembly attaches to lower damper bridges and to attach
lugs of lower cone seat, (four places) and will minimize yoke flexing during static rotor blade droop.
To minimize storage requirements, 2 of the blades can be folded so that 1 parallels the forward blade and 1 the aft blade
when folded, the blades do not extend beyond the width of the forward fuselage.
NOTE
Use of expandable rotor blade bolt instead of standard rotor blade retention bolt is
optional.

C-434 TAPE
1. Prepare blade tape (C-557) for edge sealing by applying a strip of tape (C-434) across the top of the blade tape (C-557)
1/32 in (0.79 mm) back from the edge. Apply a second strip of tape (C-434) 1/8 in (3.17 mm) forward of the edge of
the blade tape (C-557). This will provide a neat, defined area for the application of the epoxy edge sealant.
2. Apply a bead of edge sealer (C-149) between both strips of tape (C-434). With a fitted rubber glove, use a finger to
spread and smooth the sealant bead between the strips of tape.
3. Allow the adhesive to partially cure, approximately 30 minutes. Remove the tape (C-434) to allow the edges of the
adhesive to flow smoothly on the surface and the blade tape (C-557) to make a tapered edge. The 30-minute cure time
can be adjusted up or down depending if the ambient temperature is higher or lower than 72°F (22°C).
1. Pull on tape by keeping the angle of removal perpendicular (90°C) to the surface and pull at a moderate speed.
— If the angle is more or less, there is a greater chance of adhesive transferring from the tape to the surface.
— The same problem is possible if the tape is removed too slowly. If removed too quickly, the tape may tear or
sliver.
— At 60-120°F (15-49°C), the adhesive is firm enough for clean removal without tearing or slivering.
— At colder temperature, the tape is more brittle with increased chance for silvering.
— For minor adhesive transfer rub the adhesive with your finger into a ball and wipe it off. Or, dab up the adhesive
with another piece of tape.
— For major adhesive transfer that is tacky, use common cleaning agents such as 3M citrus base cleaner, mineral
spirits, or industrial solvents.
— For hard adhesive on hard surfaces, scrape with a plastic/plexiglas scraper or sand with fine grit paper. Use
caution to prevent surface damage.

MAIN ROTOR HUB
The main rotor hub consists of two titanium yokes, each of which mounts two steel spindles in elastomeric bearings and
elastomeric dampers. Each spindle has two spindle lugs for mounting a rotor blade. Rotor blade pitch control is achieved by
means of a pitch horn attached to inboard end of each spindle. The opposite end of each pitch horn is attached to a pitch link.
The pitch links are attached to the rotating controls. The main rotor hub is attached to mast by a procedure which does not
require application of large torque values to hub retaining nut. The cap assembly, which secures main rotor hub to mast, is
threaded onto mast and is also bolted to hub with eight bolts.

35. Loosen nut (29) on pivot adjusting bolt (30) and turn bolt inward until it bottoms; do not torque nut.
37. Adjust droop restraint arm length (dimension A, figure 1, detail C) as follows:
NOTE
Dimension A is established using bolt (38) without bushing (34) installed to obtain
length baseline.
a. Manually hold droop restraint arm to position 7/16 in holes of outboard clevis (36) into outboard radius of cam
(50) lower detent. Using bolt, verify bolt will install freely through both clevis tangs while passing through lower
detent of cam window. If bolt does not pass through, turn clevis as necessary, until bolt freely installs.
b. Manually stabilize forward blade at tip during steps c. and d. Do not support blade.
c. Lengthen arm by turning clevis (36) outward in one-half turn increments (installing bolt each time) until first
instance occurs where bolt will not freely install. This establishes “length baseline”.
d. Turn clevis inward one half turn from “length baseline”. Bolt should install freely. With bolt loosely in place,
attempt to swing droop restraint arm upward into upper portion of cam window. If bolt hits cam window surface
and arm is restrained in cam lower detent, length adjustment is correct. If bolt clears cam window surface and
arm swings up freely, turn clevis outward one-half turn.
e. Square up clevis (36) with cam (50) by pushing clevis upward until both clevis tangs are in contact with the cam

NOTE
During first rotor run up following installation of main rotor droop restraint, have an
observer visually verify all droop restraint arms disengage prior to RPM reaching
idle. Normal disengagement occurs at 80 to 100 RPM (25 to 30 percent Nr). Arm
disengagement may be observed by using a fixed reference point (cowling surface,
etc.) to gage droop restraint arm position as RPM increases, or a strobe light of
sufficient intensity may be used. A noticeable vibration will be detectable at idle if
arm disengagement does not occur during application of collective with neutral
cyclic. If vibration occurs, shut down helicopter and verify droop restraint arm
rigging by repeating steps 33. through 44.

MAIN ROTOR DRIVE
This chapter contains maintenance instructions for the drive system components (figure 1) which transmit power from the
engine to the main rotor assembly and to transmission mounted accessories. This includes the engine-to-transmission (main)
driveshaft, transmission and related components, and main rotor mast assembly.
Metal particles found in transmission oil, screens, filters, or accumulated on chip detectors may indicate impending failure
of an internal part of the transmission. The presence of metal particles is not necessarily an indication the transmission, or
component part, is no longer serviceable (refer to module 63-00-01 "SERVICEABILITY CHECKS"). The quantity, source,
form, and type of metal, together with the service history of the particular component, must be taken into consideration. The
time accumulated since the gearbox was new or overhauled, previous failures, and type of operation are important factors
in determining further serviceability. The particles found may be steel, aluminum, magnesium, or phenolic in various shapes
and quantities. Refer to figure 2 for disposition of metal particle contaminated transmissions.
CAUTION
Visual inspection of color and hardness may identify particles. When a particle cannot be positively identified by visual
means, perform the following tests with a permanent magnet, concentrated hydrochloric acid and concentrated nitric acid.
2. ALUMINUM. Identify aluminum particles by reaction to hydrochloric acid. When a particle of aluminum is immersed
in into hydrochloric acid, the solution will fizz vigorously and the particles will gradually disintegrate. A black residue
will remain.
NOTE
Magnesium and aluminum react similarly in hydrochloric acid. When in doubt, drop
particle in nitric acid. Aluminum does not react noticeably in nitric acid while
magnesium does.
3. COPPER OR BRONZE. Particles of copper or bronze will form a bright green cloud in nitric acid.

The following information contained in this figure is provided for the eventuation of contamination found on the drive system chip detec-
tors.
It is possible to depict the shapes of all possible particulates contamination, especially those particles not generated within a gearbox,
as a result of component wear or failure. However, the following basic assumptions will permit a rather accurate assessment of any
debris found, even through the particles may be severely distorted as a result of passing through gear meshes.
DESCRIPTION:
Material, from the surfaces of gear teeth or rolling element bearings, is quite hard. Particles broken from these surfaces may
have razor-sharp edges but rarely have sharp pointed ends. With few exceptions, surfaces of such particles will not appear
smeared (as if cut by a shear) under magnification; a grainy appearance on the fracture surfaces is more common.
When damaged by passing through gear meshes, these hard particles tend or break up with relatively little deformation.
Foreign ferrous material introduced into gearboxes is often much soften than the surfaces of gear teeth and bearings. The same
is true of most nongear and nonbearing components within gearboxes. The softer materials are usually quite ductile and malle-
able, i.e., particles from such materials can be readily bent or rolled into a wide range of shapes without fracturing.
Fragments of the softer material are capable of being torn or sheared from the parent component without suffering brittle frac-
ture (easily broken or snapped). Instead, during separation the fragments are distorted and stretched such that they often
exhibit surfaces that appear stretched. Ends of soft material fragments are often sharp-pointed; the ductile nature of the material
permits such a condition.
Each type of debris has been identified as significant debris or insignificant debris at the beginning of the explanation of signifi-
cance to aid in troubleshooting.

E-AB412-PT6T-2
5. TRANSMISSION - TROUBLESHOOTING
NOTE
In analysis of transmission oil system troubles, consider the following characteristics
of the system.
1. Low oil level will not cause low oil pressure indications provided sump contains sufficient oil to cover pump inlet. Oil
temperature however, may rise.
2. Effects of an oil leak will depend on location of leak within system and rate of fluid loss. Do not exceed 10 drops per
minute from any single source. Do not exceed 15 drops per minute from all sources on the transmission. An external
leak can allow sump to be pumped dry, causing internal failure of transmission. While any oil remains in sump, the
pressure relief valve will tend to maintain normal system pressure. This applies especially to leaks between pump and
relief valve. Leaks occurring beyond the relief valve could cause indications of low oil pressure. Leaks in the interior
of transmission will not affect oil level but may starve downstream lubrication areas and also may affect indicated oil
pressure and temperature.
3. Cumulative clogging of oil filters will not show as a gradual drop in oil pressure because the pressure relief valve
maintains normal system pressure. The external filter has a visual indicator which will extend when filter bypass
conditions are impending. This indicator should be checked during all normal inspections.

ROTOR BRAKE SYSTEM
The rotor brake system (figure 1) is composed of a master cylinder, located on the cabin roof console to the left of the pilot,
and a brake assembly. The brake assembly consists of a disc connected to a drive quill on the LH side of the transmission
and of a brake unit which, when the master cylinder is actuated by pulling the handle, rapidly stops the disc and consequently
the rotor.
CAUTION
NOTE
Refer to Chapter 98 for rotor brake wiring diagram.
1. Pull down on the actuator handle, moving handle toward vertical position (do not pass center for maximum braking
effort).
2. Verify that the ROTOR BRAKE indicator light on the master caution panel comes on.
The table 1 lists probable causes, isolation procedures and remedies, and it’s intended to aid in rotor brake system
troubleshooting.

NOTE
Inspection procedures for all four mounts are the same.
a. Fabricate a steel support sleeve and pressing button (figure 2). Top and bottom of sleeve must be square in
relation to sides so mount will be deflected in vertical plane only.
c. Place support and mount in a suitable press. Press indicator should be marked in 5 lb increments and should have
a range of 0 to 5000 lbs (or equivalent).
e. Apply pressure to button and mount with press ram so as to deflect mount in a vertical plane to 0.4 in (10.16 mm)
at approximately one cycle per minute. Repeat cycle three times.
f. Mount a dial indicator to press with the finger of indicator touching pressing button.
h. Apply enough pressure to button to deflect mount 0.1 in (2.54 mm) and record load. Apply enough pressure to
pressing button to deflect mount 0.3 in (7.62 mm) and record load. Subtract load noted at 0.1 in (2.54 mm) from
the load at 0.3 in (7.62 mm). If the value is less than 1320 lbs (5872 N) for -105 mount or 1610 (7162 N) for
-107 mount, replace mount.
2. Inspect elastomer for cracks, tears, or debonded areas. Replace if a 0.005 in (0.127 mm) feeler gauge can be inserted
more than 0.25 in (6.35 mm). Normal elastomer fretting (eraser type dust) is not cause for replacement.
3. Inspect bolts and bushings for cracks, corrosion, scoring, wear, and scratches. Replace damaged parts. Replace
damaged boots.
4. Replace isolation mounts when excessive vibration is believed to be caused by defective mounts or when there is other
evidence of malfunction.
1. Inspect friction damper (9, figure 1) for oil and grease contamination. If oil and grease contamination is present,
disassemble and inspect damper (E-AB412-PT6T-3).
2. Inspect bearing and damper fittings on dampers for maximum radial play of 0.004 in (0.101 mm) and no axial
movement.
3. Inspect dampers for binding, rough movement, or actual lack of movement by stationing personnel around pylon
mounting point. Move pylon fore and aft using the mast as a lever to rock pylon. If any of the above conditions are
noted replace damper(s).

TAIL ROTOR BLADES
Each tail rotor blade is a bonded assembly consisting of a shaped stainless steel spar forming the leading edge, an aluminum
alloy honeycomb core, and aluminum alloy skins. A flat trailing edge is formed by the extension of skins over a narrow
aluminum strip. Aluminum alloy doublers and grip plates and butt blocks reinforce root end of blade. This section extends
inboard to form a “box” open toward hub and trailing edge. Two bolt holes through upper and lower surfaces provide for
attachment of blade to hub. Externally attached balance weights and balance screws inside blade tip facilitate blade
balancing.
NOTE

b. Void limits
NOTE
Voids are defined as unbounded areas which are supposed to be bonded. Many sub
definitions of voids are often given, such as lack of adhesion, gas pockets, misfits,
etc. The general term “void” as used herein makes no distinction between these
definitions. Where two voids of different limitations (Example: Void between core
and skin adjacent to a void between skin and doubler) are closer together than 1.0 in
(25.4 mm), consider the defect as one void and apply the stricter limitation.
(1) Edge voids (figure 2): Acceptable edge voids must be sealed in accordance with paragraph "9. Tail rotor
blades - minor repair".
(a) Edge voids of 0.250 in (6.350 mm) maximum in depth by 1.50 in (3.81 cm) maximum in length
between butt block (13) and spar (10), or between butt block and inner grip plates (14).
(b) Edge voids of 0.060 in (1.524 mm) maximum in depth, by 2.0 in (5.08 cm) maximum in length
between grip plates (11) and doublers (4), doublers and skins (6), or spar (10), inner grip plates (14)
and skins (6) or spar, edge of butt block (13) and skins (6). Edge voids between the skin and spar are
not acceptable.
(c) Edge voids of 0.120 in (3.048 mm) maximum in depth by 3.0 in (7.62 cm) maximum in length
between the skins (6) and trailing edge (5).
(d) Edge voids of 0.50 in (12.7 mm) maximum in width (chordwise) between spar (10) and tip block (8).

E-AB412-PT6T-2
CAUTION
(a) No voids are acceptable between the grip plates (11) and doublers (4), or between the inner grip plates
(14) and spar (10), except as described in step 1.(b).
(b) A void 0.50 in (12.7 mm) maximum chordwise by 2.0 in (50.8 mm) maximum spanwise between the
doublers (4) and skin (6), or spar (10), is acceptable provided it is not within 0.50 in (12.7 mm) of the
edge of the doubler.
(c) Inboard of blade station 25.50 a void 0.50 in (12.7 mm) maximum chordwise by 2.0 in (50.8 mm)
maximum spanwise, is acceptable between the skin (6) and spar (10), provided it is not within 0.250
in (6.350 mm) of the edge of the skin. Outboard of blade station 40.50 where the skin overlaps the
spar, the maximum size for acceptable voids is 0.250 in (6.350 mm) chordwise by 2.0 in (50.8 cm)
spanwise, provided it is not within 0.250 in (6.350 mm) of edge of skin.
(d) A void of 0.50 in (12.7 mm) maximum chordwise by 2.0 in (50.8 mm) maximum spanwise is
acceptable between the skin (6) and core (7).
(e) A void of 0.38 in (9.652 mm) maximum spanwise by 3.0 in (76.2 mm) maximum chordwise is
acceptable between the skin and tip closure in either the top or bottom or both, provided it is not
within 0.12 in (3.048 mm) from the edge of skin. If edge distance is less then 0.12 in (3.048 mm),
void may be repaired by carefully lifting the skin and rebounding with adhesive (C-331).
(f) Voids at Trailing Edge to Core Interface. A 0.38 in (9.6 mm) maximum gap/void between the trailing
edge of the honeycomb core and the trailing edge strip is acceptable.

NOTE
The following inspection should be performed whenever signs of delamination/
separation are visible in the bond lines at the butt end area of the blade (figure 3), as
well as other tail rotor blade locations, or if excessive tail rotor vibrations are
reported with no apparent causes.
1. Thoroughly clean the tail rotor blade (1), including the surfaces and bond lines of the butt end (2), with a weak solution
of cleaning compound (C-318). Rinse with clear water.
NOTE
The intent is to obtain an approximate 37.7°C (100°F) temperature differential
between the tail rotor blade (1) and the water in the tank.
2. Cool the tail rotor blade (1) in a refrigerator for a minimum of 1 hour at a temperature of -1 to 7°C (30 to 45°F).

CAUTION
3. Fill the water tank with clean clear water. For best results, the water should be maintained at 60 to 80°C (140 to 175°F).
CAUTION
NOTE
The tail rotor blade (1) should be left in the heated water for a minimum of 1 minute
and a maximum of 2 minutes.
4. Wear protective gloves and place the cool tail rotor blade (1) into the heated water. The blade will float so it will be
necessary to manually submerge the blade.
NOTE
Be careful not to misinterpret random trapped surface air bubbles as a leak point.
5. Slightly rotate the tail rotor blade (1) back and forth about the blade pitch change axis to allow any air trapped on the
blade surfaces to be expelled.
NOTE
It may take several seconds before the air is forced out through any existing leak
path.
6. With the tail rotor blade (1) under water, check for air leaks, which will be indicated by a steady stream of fine bubbles
originating from a single point.
7. Slightly rotate the tail rotor blade (1) back and forth to allow a thorough inspection of all the blade surfaces. Pay
particular attention to the butt end (2) and around the leading edge drain hole (3).
8. If an air leak is found, the tail rotor blade is to be removed from service and scraped. Notify AgustaWestland Support
Engineering.
9. If no air leak is found, but the tail rotor assembly has a history of balance change or balance difficulties, additional
maintenance is required (Chapter 18).
10. If no air leak is found, then the tail rotor blade (1) is acceptable for return to service.

NUMBER NOMENCLATURE
C-363 ADHESIVE
All nicks, scratches, sharp dents, and corrosion that are within the repair limits in paragraph "7. Tail rotor blades - inspection"
must be removed by hand polishing in a spanwise direction (+/-15 degrees) only.
NOTE
Repair to the blade by material removal (polishing) is permitted only once at any
local area. Overlapping repairs are not permitted. Any permissible repair by
polishing should be accomplished by removing the minimum amount of material
required to remove the damage.
Polish out all repairable nicks and scratches using aluminium wool or a very fine grade abrasive pad (C-407) when repairing
aluminium. On steel surfaces, fine abrasive cloth or paper (C-406) may be used (180 grit or finer, may be used to remove
damage, but must be followed by polishing with 400 grit or finer to improve the surface finish). Nicks in the trailing edge
may be polished out using very fine abrasive cloth or paper (C-406) if followed by polishing with aluminium wool or very
fine grade abrasive pad (C-407). Hand polish in a spanwise direction.
2. Non-sharp Dents
The bottom of a dent must be smooth and clearly non-sharp to be classified as a non-sharp dent. A dent with any crease in
it is considered to be a sharp dent. Non-sharp dents, which are within the limits in paragraph "7. Tail rotor blades -
inspection", are not to be polished out. Carefully inspect for any surface irregularities, such as a nick, scratch, or a burr, in
and around a non-sharp dent. Any additional damage must be within the limits in paragraph "7. Tail rotor blades -
inspection".
3. Corrosion
Polish out all repairable corrosion using aluminium wool or a very fine grade abrasive pad (C-407) on all aluminium
surfaces, or very fine abrasive cloth or paper (C-406) (400 grit or finer) may be used on the stainless steel spar. 180 grit
abrasive cloth or paper (C-406) may be used to polish out corrosion on the steel spar if followed with polishing using 400 grit
abrasive cloth or paper (C-406) to improve the surface finish. Repair depth on aluminium must be to twice the depth of the
visible corrosion to ensure complete removal. Hand polish in a spanwise direction. Do not over-polish. On all surfaces where
corrosion has been polished out, apply cleaner (C-344) using a clean cloth (C-516) or brush. Rub solution briskly into surface
for approximately 40 to 60 seconds. Carefully check for pits with a 10X magnifying glass following clean-up. No pitting is
permissible.

TAIL ROTOR HUB AND BLADE ASSEMBLY
The tail rotor installation consists of the two-bladed tail rotor hub and blade assembly and control linkage. The rotor turns
clockwise, as viewed from the gearbox, and counteracts main rotor torque to provide directional control.
The tail rotor hub assembly consists of a stainless steel yoke, a steel trunnion, two bearing housings, and two
grease-lubricated roller bearings. The yoke is a preconed, flex-beamed type that incorporates self-lubricating, spherical
bearings for attachment of the blades to the yoke. The yoke is mounted on the trunnion with grease-lubricated roller bearings
that are assembled into the housings. The trunnion is splined in the center section and interfaces with the tail rotor drive
shaft. A cross head assembly, mounted on the drive shaft. A cross head assembly, mounted on the drive shaft outboard of
the hub assembly, incorporates counterweights and pitch links that attach to the pitch horns. The pitch horns are attached to
the blades and transfer the pitch change motion to the hub assembly.

NOTE
If records or physical appearance indicate tail rotor has been involved in an accident
or incident, refer to E-AB412-PT6T-6, for conditional inspection requirements.
1. Inspect tail rotor blades (module 64-11-01 paragraph "7. Tail rotor blades - inspection").
2. Inspect retainer (15, figure 1) for damaged threads. Damage which can be detected visually is not acceptable.
3. Inspect crosshead (8) for damaged threads. Damage which can be detected visually is not acceptable.
4. Inspect bearing (11) for contamination, lack of grease, and separation of outer race. Check bearing for roughness by
feel. Rough bearings and/or bearings with loose races are not acceptable.
5. Inspect sleeve (10) for mechanical damage. Superficial scratches are acceptable.
6. Inspect special washer (9) for scratches, nicks, and distortion. Superficial scratches are acceptable.
7. Inspect shield (30) for nicks and cuts. Superficial damage is acceptable.
8. Inspect nut (31) for damaged threads. No damaged threads are acceptable.
NOTE
This inspection is required by 25 Hour Special Inspection and certain Conditional
Inspections (E-AB412-PT6T-6). This inspection is also required if damaging/
excessive bending loads are suspected to have been sustained such as high wind
gusts, improper ground handling (tail rotor blade used as a hand hold), or static
ground strike that could cause yielding.
1. Gain access to tail rotor assembly using a maintenance stand or other means to allow close viewing of the trunnion
assembly. Perform visual inspection of flapping stop ears for deformation (figure 6).
a. Gently place tail rotor yoke against one static stop ear, allowing full view of the opposite stop.
2. If either static stop ear is deformed or bent as shown in figure 6, yoke assembly has been yielded. Both the yoke
assembly and static stop (ASB 412-96-89) are no longer serviceable and must be removed and discarded. If any doubt
exists about serviceability of these parts, contact AgustaWestland Product Support Engineering.

DRIVESHAFT HANGER ASSEMBLIES [A] [B] [C]
The tail rotor driveshaft hangers are mounted on three supports on the tailboom and one support on the engine deck. Each
consists of a flexible crowned tooth coupling and a non-flexible coupling attached on a splined shaft mounted trough a sealed
single-row bearing in a ring shaped hanger. The hanger has two support lugs that are used to attach the hanger to the supports.
The supports are aligned by use of shims, located under the hanger supports.
CAUTION
1. Remove tail rotor driveshaft sections from each end of driveshaft hanger to be removed (module 65-11-01
paragraph "2. Tail rotor driveshaft - removal").
2. Remove two bolts (12, figure 1), washers (13, 14, 15, and 17), and nuts (18). Remove hanger assembly (2) from

1. Inspect installed tail rotor driveshaft hanger assemblies for cracks, elongated bolt holes, or other visible damage.
NOTE
Procedures for hanger assembly (6, figure 2) are typical for all hanger assemblies.
2. Inspect hanger assembly (6) exterior surfaces for discoloration and overheat condition. A change in color indicates a
possible overheat condition and/or component degradation. The cause of exterior surface discoloration shall be
determined and corrected prior to continued operation (E-AB412-PT6T-3, Chapter 65).
3. Inspect non-flexible couplings (9) for nicks, dents, and cracks. Minor damage which can be polished out with fine India
stone (C-464) is acceptable.
4. Inspect outer coupling (3) for nicks, dents, and cracks. Minor damage which can be polished out with fine India stone
(C-464) is acceptable. Inspect outer coupling (3) overtemperature indicators TEMP-PLATES (10) for discoloration
and overheat condition. Perform a serviceability check as follows:
a. Overtemperature indicators TEMP-PLATES (10) must not show evidence of overtemperature, deterioration,
debonding, or discoloration of the epoxy coating that prevents interpretation of the indicating dots. If any of
these conditions exist, proceed to step b.
b. If only one TEMP-PLATE is missing, and no dot on other TEMP-PLATE (on same coupling) is discolored or
shows mechanical damage or degradation of the epoxy overcoating, the helicopter may be returned to service.
The discrepant TEMP-PLATE should be replaced as soon as practical. If any indicator dot on the TEMP-PLATE
has changed color to black, refer to table 1 for probable cause and required corrective action.
5. Inspect seal (18) for protrusions, leakage, cuts, tears, and deterioration. Replace unserviceable seals
(E-AB412-PT6T-3).
6. Inspect bearing (4) in hanger (6) and outer coupling for grease leakage. A small amount of grease expelled from around
lip of bearing seals indicates a slight overservicing and is not cause for hanger replacement. If leakage is detected,
perform an evaluation of grease leakage as follows:
CAUTION
a. Wipe grease from exterior of inner coupling (17), outer coupling (3), and bearing (4) in hanger assembly (6).
b. Record which bearing is leaking and keep under observation for the next 10 flight hours. If amount of grease
expelled from bearing seal does not decrease after 10 flight hours, replace hanger assembly.

NOTES:
1. Resume operation. Defective TEMP-PLATE or improper installation, replace defective TEMP-PLATE as soon as
practical in accordance with E-AB412-PT6T-3 Manual.
2. Coupling overtemperature condition is very likely. Remove coupling assembly and perform overtemperature inspection
in accordance with E-AB412-PT6T-3 Manual.
7. Inspect bearing (4) in hanger assembly (6) for wear, roughness, and binding as follows:
b. Rotate bearing while pressing in axially on non-flexible coupling end of hanger bearing assembly. Bearing may
feel smooth when turned with no load, but rough when loaded by pressing in with hand. Obvious roughness or
binding when turned by hand is cause for replacement of hanger bearing assembly.
8. Inspect hanger bearing fittings (7, 8 and 9, figure 1) and support (10) for mechanical and corrosion damage.
Mechanical damage in excess of superficial and/or any corrosion damage that can be detected visually is not
acceptable.
b. Hanger assembly (6, figure 2) excessively worn, cracked, or exhibits signs of overheating.
c. Signs of metal particles and/or rust colored fretting debris near bearing.

FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEMS
The following paragraphs contains information and instructions for maintenance of both standard and automatic flight
control systems.
The standard flight control system includes a cyclic control stick for fore and aft and lateral controls, a collective pitch
control stick for vertical control and anti-torque pedals for directional control. An aerodynamically actuated elevator
increases stability about the longitudinal axis.
All control systems are provided with hydraulic servocontrol, and all control system except the collective pitch control sys-
tem with force gradient and magnetic brake. The control linkages are easily accessible through access doors and panels
secured by screws, therefore maintenance and inspection operations are this simplified. The pilot and copilot controls are
interconnected.
Electrically operated force trim systems consisting of electromechanical rotary actuators and force gradients (cyclic
controls) and magnetic brake and force gradient (anti-torque controls) are connected in parallel to the cyclic and anti-torque
controls, position the flight controls in response to a signal from either the pilot or AFCS system to establish a flight
reference point, provide artificial force feel and stabilization of the cyclic and anti-torque controls.
The stick centering indicator system consists of two proximity switches and two cyclic centering (CYC CTR) caution lights
(Kit 412-704-115-101). The lights are located on the pilot and copilot instrument panel. System circuitry is activated
whenever the rotor RPM warning light is illuminated. During ground operations below normal operating range, excessive
cyclic inputs will illuminate the CYC CTR caution lights. Properly positioning cyclic stick will extinguish the lights.
The Automatic Flight Control System (AFCS) consists of the standard flight control system plus added AFCS components
in the cyclic and directional control systems.
The AFCS has two modes of operation: SAS (stability augmentation system) and ATT (attitude retention). The SAS mode
acts as a damping system that stabilizes the helicopter against outside disturbances, thereby augmenting pilot effort. In this
mode, the AFCS does not interfere with attitude changes initiated by the pilot.
The ATT mode maintains a given attitude indefinitely without pilot-initiated cyclic control inputs. Small attitude changes
can be deliberately introduced by way of a momentary ATTD TRIM beep switch on the cyclic stick. More extensive changes
can be made by depressing the FORCE TRIM switch, also on the cyclic stick. This switch disengages the AFCS while
depressed and reengages it when released.
The AFCS consists of two computer-operated subsystems, either of which is capable of complete attitude control of the
helicopter. The normal procedure, however, is for both subsystems to operate simultaneously. The subsystems are identical
in their roll and pitch control capabilities, but one has short-term yaw control capability as well.
A navigation coupling system is also installed. This system adds to the AFCS the capability to intercept and follow radio
navigation systems on its own, without pilot handling of the controls. This automatic capability keeps the helicopter on a
selected heading at a given airspeed and altitude. It also permits VOR, localizer and glideslope interception and tracking.
An automatic ILS approach to minimums (with positive sensing on the front and back courses) is also possible. The coupler
provides inputs to the flight director bars on the pilot's ADI.
An AFCS mode selector unit is installed in the pedestal. This unit has five illuminated push button switches, 1 for each
subsystem (HP1, HP2), 1 for the navigation coupling system (CPL), 1 for SAS, and 1 for ATT.
67-00-00
Page 1
E-AB412-PT6T-2
An AFCS caution light illuminates on the master caution/warning panel when there is a loss of power to one of the
subsystems or when the two systems are not tracking together.
The AFCS cyclic control systems incorporate four electromechanical series actuators, two connected in series in the roll
system and two connected in series in the pitch system. Four transducers, two in roll system and two in pitch system are used
to convert mechanical movement to electrical signals for injection of pilot control commands to the AFCS.
AFCS anti-torque directional system incorporates a single electrical servo actuator and a transducer. The servo actuator is
located forward of the directional hydraulic actuator. The transducer is connected to the bellcrank aft of the pedals.
Forward servo actuator in each cyclic system and directional series actuators are controlled by helipilot, HP-1 system. Aft
actuators in each system are controlled by HP-2 system.
When the optional flight director kit is installed an additional transducer is added to the collective control system.
The following modules provide rigging instructions for the collective, cyclic, anti-torque (tail rotor), and aerodynamically
actuated elevator control systems. For engine power lever controls (throttle), refer to Chapter 76.

CYCLIC CONTROLS
The cyclic controls (figure 1) consists of controls and components from pilot cyclic stick (22) up to and including extension
tubes (1 and 34).
The AFCS cyclic control system incorporates two series actuators, one connected in roll system and one connected in pitch
system. A control tube and idler arm are attached to series actuator in pitch system.
Four transducers, two in roll system and two in pitch system, are used to convert mechanical movement to electrical signals
for injecting pilot control commands to AFCS.
Two transducers are attached to right end of cyclic jackshaft providing a fore and aft cyclic signal. Two transducers are
attached to a forward cyclic bellcrank providing a lateral cyclic signal.
A force gradient assembly connected to an electromechanical rotary actuator is also installed in each cyclic system. Cyclic
roll system force gradient attaches to a bellcrank forward of jackshaft. The cyclic pitch system force gradient attaches
directly to left end of cyclic jackshaft.
A support assembly and idler are used to connect pitch series actuator and a pitch control tube, which is attached to mixing
lever assembly.
Two proximity switches and two cyclic centering (CYC CTR) caution lights are installed by kit 412-704-115-101 for aid in
centering swashplate. The lights are located in pilot and copilot instrument panel. The two proximity switches are located
underneath floor near mixing lever assembly.
Cyclic control AFCS system components forward of mixing lever assembly (28) are identified as "lateral cyclic" or "fore
and aft cyclic" as applicable, i.e., "lateral cyclic force gradient".
Cyclic control system components aft of mixing lever assembly (28) are identified as "left cyclic" or "right cyclic" as
applicable, i.e., "left cyclic flight control cylinder".
The fore and aft control linkage and lateral control linkage are separate from cyclic stick to mixing lever (28). From mixing
levers to swashplate effects of control linkages are combined and cannot be considered separately as to effect.
Actuation of pilot cyclic stick (22) causes hydraulic power assisted cyclic pitch change of main rotor blades.
The forward series actuators in each cyclic system are connected to Helipilot (HP-1) system. Aft series actuators in each
cyclic system are connected to Helipilot (HP-2) system.

ANTI-TORQUE CONTROLS
The anti-torque control system (figure 1) consists of control linkage and components from pilot pedals (23) aft to tail rotor
assembly. The AFCS provides a single electrical series actuator and a transducer. Series actuator is located forward of
cylinder and support (15). A transducer is connected to airframe structure and bellcrank located aft of pedals.
Movement of pedals causes a hydraulic power assisted pitch change of tail rotor blades to offset main rotor torque and to
control directional heading of helicopter.

POWER PLANT
The power plant is the overall power package. Major components in this chapter are the engine assembly (consisting of two
power sections), mounts, firewalls, accessories, and air management system.
The power plant is the canadian UACL-PT6T consisting essentially of two turbine engines coupled together.
The fuel system that supplies the two engines is automatically controlled to ensure that each engine provides the same
torque.
The air intake has an integral foreign particle separator while the lubrication system is divided into two independent circuits
for each engine and its accessory gearbox.
The air intakes are also provided with a special ring and nozzles to allow rapid flushing of the compressor.
The two engines are connected to the reduction gearbox through a fee-wheeling unit to allow the reduction gearbox to
operate normally. The reduction gearbox is connected to the main transmission by a shaft, provided with flexible end
couplings, and a free-wheeling unit.

(1) Remove the four pylon isolation mount bolts (1, figure 2) and washers (2 and 3).
(2) Remove cotter pin (6), nut (7), and thin steel washer (8) from lower lift link bolt (9). Do not remove bolt.
(3) Using hoist and lifting clevis (T59) raise transmission to point where lift link bolt may turned freely by
hand.
(4) Install four leveling jacks (T30) between transmission support case and pylon support structure (see
figure 1). Using the jack shim plates if necessary to obtain proper height.
NOTE
The leveling jacks will not lower simply by rotating the jack screw
counterclockwise. To lower jack precise amount, rotate jack screw counterclockwise
1/2 turn past the desired point, then tap lightly on end of jack screw to drive in
wedge within jack. Rotate jack screw 1/2 turn clockwise to obtain elevation desired.
(5) Carefully adjust four leveling jacks equally so that transmission is held at height where lift link bolt turns
freely.
(6) Determine that transmission support points are all at same height above support structure by measuring at
each pylon mount with a depth micrometer (see figure 1).
CAUTION
(7) Use depth micrometer to measure from top surface of each transmission support case mounting washer to
top of pylon support structure. Measure at each of the four mount locations; measurements should be equal
within 0.010 in (0.254 mm). Adjust jacks to achieve required tolerance. After each adjustment, recheck lift
link bolt for freedom of movement. If four measurements cannot be brought within tolerance, average two
forward corner measurements and adjust aft corners to be within 0.010 in (0.254 mm) of this average.
(8) Upon completion of transmission leveling, recheck lift link bolt to make sure it can be turned freely by
hand.
a. The T92 tool set (figure 4) is supplied with two T101743-127 adapters. Inspect tool adapters and mating flanged

transmission adapter runout and note whether reading is positive (+) or negative (–).
d. With indicator zeroed at 3 o'clock position and holding input quill adapter stationary rotate support assembly (4)
until indicator probe is at 9 o'clock position. Record indicator reading as 9 o'clock transmission alignment, noting
whether reading is positive (+) or negative (–).
8. Remove and reinstall alignment tool for engine end alignment check.
a. Remove dial indicator from support tube. Disengage and remove support tube by compressing engine end of
tube and lifting out transmission end from transmission end adapter.
b. Reinstall support assembly (4) with indicator end at engine end adapter. Insert tooling ball of adjustable end of
support assembly (4) in pivot hole in transmission end adapter (2). Push forward against transmission end
adapter to compress plunger mechanism in support assembly (4) and insert tooling ball at opposite end in engine
and adapter pivot hole.
NOTE
Rotating engine end adapter counterclockwise (as viewed looking aft) requires less
effort than rotating it clockwise. Free wheeling clutches within engine combining
gearbox disengage much of the gearbox drive train as well as engine output shafts
when adapter is rotated counterclockwise.
c. Rotate engine end adapter counterclockwise so that 12 o'clock mark on adapter is at 12 o'clock position.
d. Install dial indicator on support assembly (4). Position indicator so that indicator is about mid range of its travel
and tighten thumb screw.
10. Engine end vertical alignment check. Take indicator readings in the vertical plane (12 and 6 o'clock positions) as follows:
a. Zero indicator at 12 o'clock position on engine end adapter (2, figure 4) by rotating indicator bezel. Lock bezel
in place.
b. While holding support assembly (4) stationary with indicator at 12 o'clock position, rotate engine adapter
counterclockwise until 6 o'clock mark on adapter is in 12 o'clock position. Record indicator reading as 6 o'clock
engine adapter runout and note whether reading is positive (+) or negative (–).
c. Rotate adapter (5) to return 12 o'clock mark on adapter to the 12 o'clock position. Rezero the indicator if
required.
d. With indicator zeroed at 12 o'clock position and holding engine shaft adapter (9) stationary, rotate support
assembly (4) until indicator probe is at 6 o'clock position. Record indicator reading as 6 o'clock engine
alignment, noting whether reading is positive (+) or negative (–).
11. Engine end horizontal alignment check. Take indicator readings in the horizontal plane (3 and 9 o'clock positions) as
follows:
a. With adapter still positioned with 12 o'clock mark at 12 o'clock position, rotate support assembly (4) and zero
indicator at 3 o'clock mark.

b. While holding support assembly (4) stationary with indicator at 3 o'clock position, rotate engine shaft adapter
(5) counterclockwise until 9 o'clock mark on adapter is in 3 o'clock position. Record indicator reading as 9
o'clock engine adapter runout and note whether reading is positive (+) or negative (–).
c. Return the 3 o'clock mark on adapter (5) to the 3 o'clock position. Rezero indicator if required.
d. With indicator zeroed at 3 o'clock position and holding engine adapter (2) stationary, rotate the support assembly
(4) until indicator probe is at 9 o'clock position. Record indicator reading as 9 o'clock engine alignment, noting
whether reading is positive (+) or negative (–).
12. Adjust indicator readings. All indicator readings required to properly evaluate magnitude of any misalignment
between transmission and engine assembly are now available.
Indicator readings for transmission and engine misalignment measured in steps 6.e, 7.d, 8.d and 11.d must be adjusted
to cancel a portion of misalignment readings caused by transmission and engine adapter runouts.
NOTE
In adjusting the various indicator readings, it is very important that algebraic signs of
runout and misalignment readings be included.
Adjust measured alignment indicators by subtracting algebraically the
corresponding adapter runout readings.
13. Vertical alignment. If engine is within acceptable alignment with transmission in the vertical plane, adjusted 6 o'clock
indicator readings should be within (+) or (–) 0.012 in (0.3048 mm) at transmission end and within (+) or (–) 0.040 in
(1.0160 mm) at the engine end.
(1) Suppose the 6 o'clock transmission alignment measured in step 6.e. is (–) 0.015 in (0.3810 mm) and the 6
o'clock adapter runout measured in step 6.c. is (+) 0.002 in (0.0050 mm):
(2) The magnitude of adjusted 6 o'clock transmission alignment reading in the vertical plane is (–) 0.017 in
(0.4318 mm).
(1) Suppose the 6 o'clock transmission alignment measured in step 6.e. is (+) 0.022 in (0.5588 mm) and the 6
o'clock adapter runout measured in step 6.c. is (–) 0.003 in (0.0762 mm):
(2) Now, (+) 0.025 in (0.6350 mm) is the magnitude of adjusted 6 o'clock transmission alignment reading in
the vertical plane.

14. Horizontal alignment. If engine is within acceptable alignment with transmission in horizontal plane adjusted 9 o'clock
indicator readings should be between (+) 0.005 in (0.1270 mm) and (+) 0.035 in (0.8890 mm) at the transmission end
and between (+) 0.044 in (1.1176 mm) and (–) 0.032 in (0.8128 mm) at the engine end.
The readings for acceptable alignment in horizontal plane will not be evenly disposed about zero as in vertical plane
because transmission assembly is rotated slightly to the right to compensate for torsional wind up.
(1) Suppose the 9 o'clock engine alignment measured in step 11.b. is (+) 0.120 in (0.3048 mm) and the runout
measured in step 11.b. is (–) 0.0015 in (0.0387 mm):
(2) Now, (+) 0.0135 in (0.3429 mm) is the magnitude of adjusted 9 o'clock engine alignment reading in the
horizontal plane.
(1) Suppose the 9 o'clock transmission alignment measured in step 7.d. is (–) 0.002 in (0.00508 mm) and the
adapter runout measured in step 7.b. is (+) 0.005 in (0.01270 mm):
(2) Now, (–) 0.007 in (0.18 mm) is the magnitude of adjusted 9 o'clock transmission alignment reading in the
horizontal plane.

15. Adjust alignment. Review adjusted alignment readings at transmission and engine end together using table 1 and
table 2 to determine which engine situation is causing misalignment. Refer to table 3 to estimate shim changes required
to correct vertical and horizontal misalignment.
a. Adjust alignment by adding or removing laminated shims beneath engine deck fittings. Shim changes at mount
locations shown in table 3 will move pivot hole in engine adapter the indicated amount and result in the tabulated
change in indicator reading. All shim changes in table 3 are shown in 0.010 in (0.2540 mm) increments. Shim
removal will result in motions exactly opposite in direction but identical in magnitude.
c. After alignment is complete, remove alignment tool, transmission jacks, hoist, and clevis.
d. Install thin steel washer (8, figure 3) and nut (7) on lower lift link bolt (9). Torque nut 108 to 125 foot-pounds
(146 to 169 Nm) and secure with cotter pin (6).
e. Install four pylon isolation mount bolts (1) and washers (2 and 3).
f. Torque four pylon isolation mount bolts (1) 90 to 105 foot-pounds (122 to 142 Nm).

ENGINE AIR MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
The air management system (figure 1) consists of a series of ducts located within the engine cowling. Inlet air flows through
two separate duct systems (figure 2) to each of two engine power sections. During normal operation, air is drawn in through
forward ducts (4 and 7, figure 1) and forward transition ducts (5 and 6) by combined action of engine power section
compressors, exhaust flow through ejectors (1 and 11) or ejector/deflector assemblies and ram effect of forward movement
of the helicopter. Doors (13) in valve assemblies (3 and 9) are normally open. Part of the air, with any foreign particles
present, passes through valve assemblies (3 and 9), transition ducts (2 and 10), and out through ejectors (1 and 11). The
remaining air makes a sharp turn downward into induction baffles (8 and 12). Most of the airborne particles cannot make
the sharp turn, but continue aft through the valve assemblies. The clean air passes from induction baffles (8 and 12) into
engine power sections then out through exhaust ducts (14) and ejectors (1 and 11).
Doors (13), in valve assemblies (3 and 9), are positioned either full open or full closed by actuators. Electrical power for the
actuators is furnished by the 28 Vdc essential bus. The electrical circuits are connected through circuit breakers, ENG 1
PART SEP and ENG 2 PART SEP. The electrical actuators are operated either automatically (by the engine low rpm warning
system) or manually (by pulling either FIRE PULL handle). When the actuators are operated to close the doors, either
automatically or manually, the caution panel segment PART SEP OFF will illuminate and all intake air is directed to the
power section.
The forward transition ducts (5 and 6, figure 1) are integral parts of the engine air inlet cowlings.

NOTE
Interpreting the feel of bearings requires experience. Some bearings use a high
temperature lubricant that will cause a good bearing to feel rough when turned.
i. Inspect the bearings for roughness by turning the armature in the normal direction of rotation slowly by hand
using your fingers to obtain the “feel” of the bearings. Bearing rotation should be relatively smooth, and the
bearings should not sound dry.
CAUTION
j. Carefully insert the brushes in their original location on the brush holder assembly. Referring to figure 3, ensure
the shorter side of the brush will be the first to contact the commutator when the armature is rotated in the normal
direction.

ENGINE CONTROLS
Major components of the system are the Automatic Fuel Control Units (AFCU), Manual Fuel Control Units (MFCU), power
turbine (N2) governors, Torque Control Unit (TCU), droop compensator control linkage and power lever control linkage
(figure 1 and figure 2).
The engine control system permits the pilot to obtain maximum engine performance with minimum attention. Under normal
flight conditions, the power turbine (N2) speed is controlled by Automatic Fuel Control Units (2 and 7, figure 1), power
turbine governors (3 and 7, figure 2), and droop compensator (45).
The Automatic Fuel Control Units (2 and 7, figure 1) safeguard engine power sections, against overloading. On acceleration
and deceleration, the Automatic Fuel Control Units avoid engine damage and/or flameout due to sudden power changes.
The Manual fuel Control Units (3 and 8) can be operated in either automatic or manual mode. The pilot can select AUTO
or MAN operation by means of engine GOV switches. When operating in MANUAL mode, the pilot positions lever (4 and/
or 9) on manual fuel controls by means of twist grip throttles (29 and/or 30),
Refer to Pratt & Whitney Aircraft of Canada Ltd. PT6T-3 Series Maintenance Manual for detailed description of engine
mounted components.
NOTE
Code [D] helicopters have an ITT trim actuator (2, figure 2) installed in place of tube
(1) which can be extended or retracted to provide torque or ITT matching. Refer to
module 76-10-05 paragraph "4. Maximum torque check and control limit setting -
torque limit adjustment [A] [B] [C]" for ITT trim actuator.
1. Prior to making any adjustments, ensure the pointers on the torque pressure transmitters are indexed in accordance with
the reduction (combining) gearbox data plate.
NOTE
Notwithstanding the favoring of torque matching over RPM INCR/DECR switch
matching, the engine controls rigging must allow steady state, single power section
flight at 97% or higher power turbine N.2 speed with either engine power section.
2. If the torque split exceeds 4%, during steady state operations, match engine 1 (left power section) torque to engine 2
(right power selection) torque by adjusting the length of tube (9).
a. If engine 1 (left power section) torque is too high throughout collective range, lengthen tube (9).
b. If engine 1 (left power section) torque is too low throughout collective range, shorten tube (9).
3. After adjusting control tube (9), check clearance between stop arms adjacent to governors (3 and 7) and minimum/
maximum stop crews.

ENGINE (N1) POWER CONTROLS
The (N1) power lever control system consists of two parallel mechanical linkage subsystems, connecting dual throttle
control twist grip (29 and 30, figure 1) to Manual Fuel Control Units (3 and 8), on engine power sections. From the collective
jackshaft, the power lever control linkage extends aft under the cabin floor between the main beams, then up inside the pylon,
and through the cabin roof into the inlet faring forward of the engine accessory gearboxes.
The power lever control linkage are actuated by throttle twist grips (29 and 30). A friction control is provided on pilots
throttle only. The upper twist grip (30) marked ENG 1, controls engine 1 gas producer (GAS PROD) rpm for left (No. 1)
power section. The lower twist grip (29), marked ENG 2, controls engine 2 gas producer (GAS PROD) rpm for right (No.
2) power section. Both twist grips are marked with arrows showing direction of movement to increase (INCR) rpm. When
twist grip is turned right, rpm will be reduced until linkage contacts idle stop at approximately 61% GAS PROD rpm.
Idle stop solenoids (1 and 15), are operated by IDLE STOP ENG 1 and ENG 2 release switch on pilot collective switch box.
When either idle stop release switch is activated, the corresponding idle stop solenoid plunger will retract allowing MFCU
to be placed in cut-off position. The idle stop plunger will not retract if excessive pressure is applied by the twist grip toward
the closed position.

d. Follow row from left to right until under column corresponding to range in which “ZERO” number falls. Record
number at this location.
e. The pressure at which torque limiting should occur is the average left and right pressures found in steps c. and
d. Calculate this as follows:
EXAMPLE:
For left hand pressure, enter left side of table 3 at row corresponding to range 9 to 10. Follow this row until under column
corresponding to range -5 to -6. The pressure at this location is 50,28 psig.
For RH pressure, enter left side of table 3 at row corresponding to range 4 to 5. Follow this row until under column
corresponding to range -3 to -4. The pressure at this location is 50,89 psig.
5. Aircraft equipped with TCU (11, figure 4) adjust as follows prior to ground run.
CAUTION
NOTE
Seals between the coarse adjustment dome and TCU and between the fine
adjustment locknut can be removed and lockwire as require for maintenance.
a. Remove the lockwire/seal between the coarse adjustment dome (7) and TCU (11) body.
b. Remove the lockwire/seal between the fine adjustment screw (5) and fine adjustment locknut (06).
NOTE
On fine adjustment screw, internal stops allow nearly half a turn in each direction.
Full travel (stop to stop) is equivalent to one coarse adjustment position change. The
fine adjustment screw should be returned to the nominal (center) position prior to
any coarse adjustment change (marks or inner and outer screw aligned).
c. Verify the fine adjustment screw (5) is in the nominal position (center); if necessary reset the fine adjustment
screw before adjusting the coarse adjustment dome (7).
d. Set the coarse adjustment dome to the position (1 to 9) matching coarse adjustment range as per table 4. The
coarse adjustment range corresponds to the addition of LH and RH pressure as determined from table 3. From
the example, 50,28 to 50,89 = 101,17. This corresponds to dial position 4 from table 4.

b. Remove plugs from tube assemblies (1 and 2) and from port “D” on tee fitting (4).
NUMBER NOMENCLATURE
NOTE
This alternate procedure can be used when it is desirable to adjust the torque limiter
without operating the engines.
1. Install equipment and calculate the torque limiter setting as per paragraph "2. Maximum torque check and control limit
setting - torque limit adjustment", steps 1. through 5.
2. Connect filtered air with in-line regulator to one or both Pg air ports (E and F, figure 1, figure 3 or figure 4) on right
and/or left side of TCU.
CAUTION
4. Increase pressure from pressure tester and record at what oil pressure the air pressure begins to drop.
NOTE
A 1/8 of a turn of screw (2, figure 1) or (7, figure 3) or (5, figure 4) will change
pressure at which droop occurs by approximately 3,0 psig.
5. If air pressure drop does not occur at calculated pressure ±0,35 psig (as read on tester), decrease applied pressure and
adjust TCU adjustment screw clockwise to increase pressure or counterclockwise to decrease pressure.
6. Repeat steps 4. and 5. until limiter setting is adjusted within ±0,35 psig of pressure calculated.

9. For aircraft equipped with Torque Control Unit (TCU) per figure 3 and figure 4 proceed as follows:
b. Remove plugs from tube assemblies (1 and 2) and from port “D” on tee fitting (4).
CAUTION
NOTE
This procedure is applicable to helicopters codes [A] [B] [C] only. It should only be
used if test equipment listed in paragraph "2. Maximum torque check and control
limit setting - torque limit adjustment" is not available.
NOTE
On a hot day or at high altitude conditions, it may not be possible to reach torque
limit required by the following test.
2. Perform a maximum power climb and record point at which torque limiting begins. This is indicated by ROTOR speed
decaying with further power application and GAS PROD RPM appearing to be too low to have reached engine
topping. Torque limiting should occur between 101 and 103% for 412-075-008-101 indicators and between 98 and
100% for 412-075-008-111/113 indicators.
CAUTION
3. If torque limit does not occur before reaching either the maximum initial value (100 or 103% as applicable), turn
adjustment screw (2, figure 1) or (7, figure 3) counterclockwise in 1/8 turn increments and repeat step 2. after each
adjustment until torque limiting occurs within desired initial range.
4. Insert a wrench in adjustment screw (2, figure 1 or 7, figure 3) and mark the starting location with a soft lead pencil or
other removable marker. Rotate adjustment screw 3/8 turn clockwise to establish new limiting setting.

however, later adjustments to achieve proper twin power range section RPM range,
and adjustments to obtain torque matching will supersede these initial adjustments.
26. Actuate RPM switch to full INCR. Place collective stick full down. Rotate both engine throttles to full INCR. Record
ROTOR RPM.
76-12-03

E-AB412-PT6T-2
27. Actuate RPM switch to full DECR. Record ROTOR RPM. Adjust length of actuator (8) rod end as required to obtain
97% to 101.5% RPM range. Shorten to raise range or lengthen to lower range.
28. With rotor at flat pitch, increase both throttles to full open position and adjust rotor RPM to 100%.
29. Increase power to approximately 62% MAST TORQUE and match ENG 1 TORQUE to ENG 2 TORQUE by adjusting
control tube (7). Shorten to increase No. 1 engine torque. Lengthen to decrease No. 1 engine torque.
30. Ensure ITT trim actuator (3) is in mid stroke position, approximately 237.24 mm (9.34 in).
31. With rotor at flat pitch, rotate ENG 1 and ENG 2 throttles to full open. Adjust RPM switch until 100% ROTOR RPM
is indicated. Increase collective pitch slowly in a series of successive equal steps from flat pitch to full power (either
engine ITT limit or MAST TORQUE limit). ROTOR RPM should ideally remain at 100 ± 1% throughout power
sweep. If rotor RPM droops (decays to a value less than is allowed upon power application) or overspeeds (increases
above 100% upon power application) make a cam rate adjustment. For increased cam compensation (use if rotor
droops) adjust cam counterclockwise with respect to bellcrank (28). For decreased cam compensation (use if rotor
overspeeds), adjust cam clockwise with respect to bellcrank (28). After every cam adjustment, step M. and N. should
be accomplished to ensure slot in cam (25) does not bottom out during full down collective.
NOTE
If rotor overspeed cannot be corrected by adjusting droop cam, verify autorotation
RPM is correct. A very low main rotor blade angle can cause an excessive
overspeed.
33. With collective pitch full up and RPM switches for linear actuator (8) and ITT trim actuator (3) in the full +2 position
(actuator retracted), adjust governor stop screw (24) for both governors (1 and 5) to a minimum of 2.54 mm (0.10 in)
o governor stop arm (23). Secure stops with lockwire (C-405).
34. Additional actuator adjustment may be required during initial ground run and/or flight to achieve optimum ITT
matching due to manufacturing and installation tolerances. Maintain 3.81 mm (0.15 in) stroke on ITT trim actuator (3).

1. OIL - GENERAL
NOTE
Terminology reduction gearbox and combining gearbox as used in this manual are
one in the same. AgustaWestland uses combining gearbox as evident on annunciator
light panel.
This chapter contains maintenance data for both engine (power sections) oil systems and reduction (combining) gearbox oil
system.
The oil systems of power sections and reduction (combining) gearbox are separate systems and are connected by external
hoses to three radiator-type coolers located aft of engine. The upper cooler is a dual unit, serving both the reduction
(combining) gearbox and transmission oil system. The coolers are installed in a structural support, and are connected by air
ducts to two blowers mounted on (and shaft-driven by) the reduction (combining) gearbox. Drain lines with manual valves
are provided for all engine-to-cooler lines (figure 1).
The oil supply for each power section is located in a tank in the accessory gearbox. The reduction (combining) gearbox has
an internal oil supply. A temperature bulb and pressure transmitter in each system are connected to oil temperature and
pressure gages on the instrument panel. Pressure switches, temperature switches, and chip detectors in each system are
connected to segments on the caution panel.
2. OIL - TROUBLESHOOTING

HEATING SYSTEMS
Heating systems (electrical portion) include cabin heater and vent blower systems. Refer to Chapter 98 for applicable wiring
diagrams.
The bleed air heating system mixes engine bleed air with ambient air and distributes mixed air in cabin area. The system has
two electrical control circuits, outlet air control and temperature control. The outlet air control controls amount of heated air
needed for cabin heating and defrosting. The temperature control combines engine bleed air with outside air for distribution
in heating system. Overheat switches and relays are provided as protective devices to prevent excessively hot air from
entering distribution system. Particle separator relays are provided as safety devices to cause bleed air flow to be shut off
when rpm at either engine is below normal operational limits.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The electrical system of the helicopter supplies the following electrical power; Vdc direct current, 115/26 V 400 Hz single
phase alternating current.
The direct current can be supplied by two (starter) generators, by the battery or by an external source through the external
power receptacle located on the RH side of the helicopter nose.
The direct current electrical system, with return line grounded to the structure, supplies the equipment for the engine, the
navigation and communication equipment, the instruments, the armament units and the lighting system.
The alternating current is supplied by two static inverters that supplies power to the navigation instruments, the engine and
special instruments.
Maintenance of electrical circuitry, electrical equipment, and electrical components installed on the Model 412 helicopter is
presented in the following text.
Control panels for ac and dc electrical systems are located on the overhead console. All extended range fuel system circuit
breakers referred to in this chapter are located in circuit breaker panels mounted on overhead console. Control relays, power
relays, voltage regulators and other equipment required to control, regulate, and effect power transfer and malfunction
monitoring are located in respective compartments. For equipment location, refer to figure 1 through figure 11 and
module 96-24-01 "ELECTRICAL SYSTEM - REFERENCE DESIGNATORS [A] [B]" through module 96-24-02
"ELECTRICAL SYSTEM - REFERENCE DESIGNATORS [C] [D]" (reference designators list). Refer to Chapter 98 for
schematic and wiring diagrams.
Perform operational checks to ensure no new malfunctions have been introduced when equipment is replaced and/or
airframe wiring is repaired/replaced. When performing operational checks, external power should be utilized whenever
possible. Using battery power may deplete the battery and prevent engine start.
1. Inspect electrical and electronic equipment installation items for dirt and corrosion. The surfaces should be free of dirt,
grease, and fungus.
2. Remove moisture, dust and loose dirt with a clean soft cloth.
WARNING
3. Remove grease, fungus, and ground-in dirt from the equipment case and mounting, use a cloth dampened (not wet)
with cleaning compound.

NOTE
Make certain the multimeter AN/PSM-6A or equivalent is in normal condition.
Select applicable voltage range for the most accurate reading to match the value
given on the respective electrical system wiring diagrams.
Perform voltage measurements (AC and DC) where applicable if equipment and airframe component(s) of the respective
system malfunction while conducting the operational procedures. Check voltage of respective systems at test points and
terminal boards on the airframe as per system wiring diagrams.
Check the primary voltage input on load side of respective circuit breaker as per system wiring diagram.
Conduct resistance measurement (continuity trace) using resistance selection, on multimeter AN/PSM-6A or equivalent
with primary electrical power removed from the helicopter. Apply continuity trace for localization of INVISIBLE defects
of connectors, conductors, terminal boards, diodes, resistors, capacity, transistors, relays, inductors, switches, selectors, and
equipment. For a logical approach to a rapid analysis of faulty airframe conductors and components with an electrical
system, that cannot be determined by visual inspection, follow the suggested sequential steps below:
NOTE
If respective system does not perform normally during operational test procedures,
remove dc power from helicopter and apply continuity trace to suspected
components and/or equipment within the circuitry.
NOTE
Under certain conditions of component and/or equipment malfunction it may be
necessary to make voltage measurements and/or continuity trace combinations to
pinpoint the trouble.
1. Analyze the respective system by System-Wiring diagram for airframe inter unit conductor paths (Single, parallel and
series): consider resistors, diodes and relay holding coils and etc. which may alter the sum total resistance of conductor
paths.
NOTE
On Multimeter, check that the meter movement is free and the ohms selection and
ranges will zero ohms adjust knob.
NOTE
When performing resistance measurements, select the range to give the most
accurate reading of the path (conductor, resistor, diode relay holding coil transistor
and condenser) selected from the electrical system wiring diagram.
2. Check continuity and resistance of individual conductors within the respective interconnecting cabling.
3. Check continuity and resistance of individual conductors for abnormal conductivity with adjacent conductors,
shielding and common ground.
6. Check condensers for stowage factor (Deflection and rate of return of multimeter pointer).

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM - PRIMARY AND SECONDARY ELECTRICAL
POWER SYSTEMS
The Model 412 helicopter electrical power system provides 28 volts dc, 115 volts ac and 26 volts ac for helicopter electrical
equipment, avionics systems and instruments. It also provides electrical engine starting capability and emergency battery
power.
Primary 28 Vdc electrical power is supplied by two 30 volt, 200 ampere starter-generators, one mounted on each engine.
Output voltage of each generator is monitored and regulated by a dc control unit. Dc control units provide overvoltage and
reverse current protection and control paralleled generator operation so the starter-generators share total load requirements
within 20 amperes. Each generator supplies power to a main dc bus and two interconnected nonessential buses. Each main
dc bus, in turn, serves as a feeder for the two essential dc buses and two emergency buses.
Electrical separation between main buses and between starter-generators is accomplished through use of circuit breakers and
isolation diodes. If one starter-generator or engine should fail, both nonessential buses are automatically dropped and all
essential and emergency loads are supplied by the remaining starter-generator. An override switch is installed so the pilot
may, at his discretion, manually restore power to the nonessential buses.
This arrangement allows automatic dc load shedding for 30 minutes powered by 40 ampere-hour battery. Should a flight of
longer duration be required on battery only, the pilot may set NORMAL EMERG LOAD switch to EMERG LOAD position.
This provides load shedding for a 76 minute flight.
Secondary power is supplied by two identical 450 volt-ampere,115/26 volt, 400 Hz, single phase, solid state inverters. One
inverter is energized by each essential dc bus. Inverter No. 1 supplies power to 115 Vac and 26 Vac buses 1 and 2, and
Inverter No. 2 supplies power to 115 Vac and 26 Vac bus 3. The inverters are completely independent of each other. If an
inverter fails, all ac loads are energized by the remaining inverter.
26 Vac and 115 Vac emergency power is supplied by inverters No. 1 and No. 2 when inverter switches are in the ON position.
Starting power is normally supplied by a 24 volt battery. An external power receptacle located in the nose of the helicopter
allows an external power source to be used for engine starting and ground checkout operations.
NOTE
A simplified single line schematic diagram of the electrical power system, showing
interconnection of components, is found in this chapter.

DC POWER SYSTEM - STARTER AND IGNITER SYSTEMS
One starter-generator is mounted on each of the two engines. If electrical power is supplied to the series (or starter) winding,
the starter-generator will produce a rotational torque for starting the engine. Electrical power may be from the battery or
from an external source of 28 Vdc power. Starting of engine No. 1 is accomplished by closing ENGINE NO. 1 IGN circuit
breaker and ENGINE NO. 1 START RLY circuit breaker. Set ENGINE 1 FUEL switch to ON and START switch (on pilot
collective switch) to ENG 1 position. This energizes No. 1 start control relay and No. 1 starter-generator relay which
energizes No. 1 generator relay, and also energizes engine No. 1 ignition unit. Current now flows through contacts of No. 1
generator relay and No. 1 starter-generator relay to the series (starter) winding of the starter-generator No. 1. Starting of
engine No. 2 is accomplished by the above described procedure utilizing control items of engine No. 2 system in lieu of
engine No. 1 system items. Maintenance of the starter-generators is covered in chapter 71 of this manual.

DC INDICATOR SYSTEMS
The dc indicator systems include mast torque measurement system (helicopters code [D]), standby attitude indicator, engine
oil temperature indicator, transmission oil temperature indicator, combining gearbox oil temperature indicator, engine
hourmeter, turn and slip indicator, interturbine temperature indicator, hydraulic oil temperature indicator systems and fuel
quantity indicator system. Refer to Chapter 98 for appropriate system wiring diagram.
Mast torque measurement is accomplished by a sensor located on the bottom of the transmission and extending up into the
bottom of the mast. The sensor consists of two monopole pickups. These pickups are located inside two sets of mast splines
to detect the torsional displacement between them. The bottom sensor is solid in the mast and is the reference sensor. The
upper pickup is located on the lower end of the torque tube and is the signal sensor. The signal sensor is connected to the top
of the mast and is displaced in relation to the reference sensor when the mast is under a torque condition. During manufacture
of the mast, the twist rate of the mast is determined, and the mast data plate is stamped with a letter from A to R indicating
the stiffness of the mast. The electrical signals from the reference and signal pickups are in phase at zero torque and 145.4°
degrees out of phase at 100% torque, which corresponds to 4.8 degree of mechanical twist for an "H" graded mast. The
torque signal conditioner has a cover plate on one end covering a 15 position switch marked A through R. This switch must
be set to the letter corresponding to the letter on the mast data plate. The mast torque signal conditioner then provides an
output to the triple torque indicators. All torque is indicated in percentages. Engine 1 and engine 2 torque is indicate by
separate meter movements on right side of indicator and mast torque is indicated on the left side.
OVER TORQ warning lights for the pilot and copilot are mounted on the instrumental panel. A self-test function is initiated
by pressing pilot or copilot OVER TORQ warning light or selecting BITE on the signal conditioner (figure 1). The self-test
function will cause the mast torque output signals to be 105 ±1.0% (as indicated on the triple torque indicators) and over
torque output signal to illuminate the OVER TORQ warning lights.
A latching over torque indicator is provided to indicate when the output torque exceeds a preset torque level. The indicator
trips within 0,5 seconds of the over torque occurrence. The indicator, located beneath the cover plate, is reset mechanically.
Trip point is 108 ±0.5% for -105. and 110 ±-0.5% for -107 and -109. The indicator is visible through the cover plate.
A test function is provided to determine the phase difference during a zero torque calibration procedure. The function is
initiated by selecting PHASE on the switch on the signal conditioner control panel. A DC voltage (phase voltage) is
measurable between the +DVM and -DVM terminals.
A temperature sensor mounted on the transmission top case provides temperature compensation above and below 77°F
(25°C) for change in mast elasticity.

DC ELECTRICAL SYSTEM EQUIPMENT - EXTERNAL POWER
RECEPTACLE
The dc external power receptacle (J3), located on the right side of the helicopter nose, permits dc power from the auxiliary
power unit to be applied to the helicopter electrical system during ground operations. Receptacle J3 contains a high-current
common ground pin and a high-current positive polarity pin for the application of power and an additional low-current pin
to provide dc control voltage for relay excitation when the dc auxiliary power unit is connected with correct polarity. A
microswitch actuated by the dc external door, controls the illumination of the external power light on the caution panel.
External power may be connected to the helicopter electrical systems through the external power receptacle (2J1). No special
action or switching is necessary to connect external power. If external power connections are of the correct polarity, the
external power relay (2K1) closes automatically and connects the ground unit to the main dc bus 1 and 2. If connections are
not of correct polarity, no action occurs. No. 1 and No. 2 dc essential buses may be energized by closing GEN 1 RESET,
GEN 2 RESET and all MAIN DC ESNTL BUS FEEDER circuit breakers). The nonessential bus may be energized by
placing NON-ESNTL BUS switch to MANUAL. This allows complete checkout or all equipment or other ground
operations to be performed. Electrical equipment will not be protected from overvoltage conditions when operating on
external power unless the external power source used provides this protection.
2. Remove nuts and washers from terminal post of receptacle, identify and remove conductors from receptacle.
2. Remove protective cover from conductors and connect same to respective receptacle terminals, using existing
hardware.

DC ELECTRICAL SYSTEM EQUIPMENT - STARTER GENERATOR
Two starter-generators, are installed on the forward side of the accessory gearbox, on the section which extends above the
cabin ceiling, below the engine air intake ducts. The starter generators, one for each engine, are a combination electric
motor-generator type and have dual functions. As dc motors energized by the battery or by an external power source, they
provide the power required to start the helicopter engines. After engine start the starter-generators operate as dc generators
with a power output of 6 KW and a voltage output regulated at 28 volts. Generator operation is controlled by 2 dc control
boxes. The starter generators are of the self-excited type incorporating 4 main poles and 4 interpoles with a series winding
for engine starting. An integral fan, keyed to the rotor shaft, permits self-cooled operation. The fan is protected by a cover.
The cooling air is obtained through an air intake on the engine cowling and is directed into the cover by a flexible duct. The
starter generators are mounted on the helicopter power plant via mounting flanges and clamps.

DC ELECTRICAL SYSTEM EQUIPMENT - DC CONTROL BOX
Two dc control boxes (Z22 and Z23) (2Z2 and 2Z3), manufactured by Lear-Siegler are located in the helicopter nose
electrical compartment. The dc control boxes are static type, and therefore do not contain any moving parts.
Each box incorporates 3 printed circuit boards. The top board contains the paralleling and the voltage regulator. The middle
board contains the line contactor relays and the reverse current controls. The bottom board contains the ground fault
protection and the overvoltage circuits.
Thus, the dc control box, when in operation, maintains generator output voltage within calibrated limits by varying generator
excitation, and, at the same time, protects the dc system against overvoltage, ground faults and reverse by de-energizing the
generator. Following temporary de-energization, the generator can be reset via the control box, by setting the GEN switch
to RESET and then back to ON.
2. Hold dc control box in place and secure with 4 screws and washers.

DC ELECTRICAL SYSTEM EQUIPMENT - CURRENT TRANSFORMER
The dc electrical system is equipped with current transformers to prevent damage or unbalanced conditions in the system.
Six current transformers are provided and are installed two in the helicopter nose lower compartment roof and four in the
overhead roof.
The current transformers are composed of a magnetic iron core on which is wound a coil operating as a secondary. The
primary is the helicopter cabling passing through the magnetic iron core. When current flows in the primary, a proportional
output is induced in the secondary winding.
The current transformers are connected in series and to the dc control box. During normal operation the total secondary
winding output is equal to zero and the dc electrical system is balanced.
In the event of malfunction, an unbalance is produced and sensed by the relative dc control box which causes the
disconnection of the relative generator.

VOICE/FLIGHT DATA RECORDER SYSTEM (P/N 412-705-001-101 AND 103)
The voice and flight data recorder system consist of a flight data recorder, a cockpit voice recorder, and their associated
hardware and wiring. Refer to module 96-24-00 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM for equipment location and chapter 98 for
applicable wiring diagrams.
This system (figure 1) consists of a flight data acquisition unit (FDAU), a flight data recorder (FDR), an accelerometer, an
air data computer (ADC), and a system fail relay.
The flight data acquisition unit gathers data from the air data computer and various instruments and sensors. It also passes
data to the flight data recorder and clock signals to the cockpit voice recorder (CVR). Dc power is required flight data
acquisition unit and both ac and dc power are required for the flight data recorder unit. FDR SYS FAIL caution light on the
master caution panel illuminates with a FDAU failure, FDR failure, loss of power to either unit, or if either unit is not
installed. In addition, the flight data acquisition unit contains two light emitting diodes (LED) on its front cover, which are
independently activated by a fault signal for either the flight data acquisition unit or flight data recorder.
The FDR SYS FAIL caution light and flight data recorder (LED) extinguish automatically once the fault is cleared. But, in
order to extinguish the LED caution indicator on the flight data acquisition unit, activated by a FDAU fault, the fault must
first be cleared, and then the FDAU circuit breaker must be reset.

MASTER CAUTION lights on pilot and copilot instrument panel illuminate in conjunction with one or more indicator panel
lights to announce a fault or malfunction in a monitored system. MASTER CAUTION lights can be reset in readiness for
next fault by momentarily depressing TEST-RESET switch to RESET. Individual indicator lights on caution panels will
remain illuminated as long as fault condition exists. Momentarily pressing TEST switch will illuminate all indicator lights
on master caution panel, MASTER CAUTION lights, the RPM warning lights, ENG 1 OUT light, and ENG 2 OUT light.
Caution and warning lights are so designed that after each initial application of power, all indicator lights will illuminate
bright. Manual selection of a bright or dimmed condition is provided by a BRIGHT-DIM switch on master caution panel.
Momentarily placing BRIGHT-DIM switch to DIM will momentarily dim master caution panel indicator lights, MASTER
CAUTION light, RPM ENG 1 OUT, and ENG 2 OUT. Lights will dim and remain dim if pilot INSTR LTS rheostat (R1/
8R1) is rotated clockwise from OFF. Lights can be reset to bright by momentarily placing BRIGHT-DIM switch to BRIGHT
or by rotating pilot INSTR LTS rheostat counterclockwise to OFF.
During system operational checks, MASTER CAUTION lights on pilot instrument panel should illuminate each time a
caution panel segment illuminates, and shall be reset each time in readiness for another fault indication.
2. Check MASTER CAUTION lights illuminate and each caution light illuminates in accordance with following listing.
3. Reset MASTER CAUTION lights by placing RESET/TEST switch to RESET and releasing.
4. Check MASTER CAUTION lights extinguish and individual caution lights remain either on or off in accordance with

CAUTION AND WARNING SYSTEM - ROTOR BRAKE WARNING SYSTEM
The system consists of two microswitches mounted on the rotor brake assembly and connected, via electrical wiring, to the
ROTOR BRAKE caution lights on the caution panel. Operation of the rotor brake handle causes the application of hydraulic
power to the rotor brake assembly and, in turn, movement of pistons in two cylinders of the brake assembly which close the
microswitches and cause the warning light to illuminate.
1. Pull down on ROTOR BRAKE handle a reasonable but minimum amount. Observe that both ROTOR BRAKE caution
lights on MASTER CAUTION PANEL (8A1) are illuminated.
2. Return ROTOR BRAKE handle to its original retracted position. Observe that both ROTOR BRAKE caution lights
extinguish.
NOTE
Each microswitch controls one warning light. If one light illuminates at 0.76 mm
(0.030 in.) travel position, only one of the switches is misadjusted.
1. Position microswitch and actuators in their approximate locations so that, with brake off and MASTER CAUTION
circuit breaker closed, the caution lights are off.
2. Note the position of the microswitch actuator and brake assembly piston with respect to a nearly fixed point in the line
of brake assembly piston travel.
3. Carefully apply pressure by pulling downward on the master cylinder handle until the brake assembly piston move
0.76 mm (0.030 in.) from their location noted in step b.
4. If the actuators are properly adjusted, the caution lights should be on when brake assembly piston have moved 0.76
mm (0.030 in.).
5. Loosen switch mounting screw and jamnut on adjusting screw, and adjust switches as necessary so that both lights
illuminate when both pistons have moved 0.76 mm (0.030 in.) from the "brake off" position. Tighten screw and jamnut
after adjustment.

CAUTION AND WARNING SYSTEM - RPM LIMIT WARNING SYSTEMS
The rpm limit warning system consists of: RPM limit detector unit located on shelf in nose compartment, RPM caution light
assembly on both pilot and copilot instrument panels, rotor tach generator mounted on transmission, and two gas producer
tachometer generators, one mounted on each engine. The speed of each engine and rotor speed are electronically monitored
by RPM limit detector unit. When a rotor overspeed condition exists, the RPM limit detector will cause the RPM caution
lights on the instrument panel to flash, warning of an overspeed condition. When a rotor underspeed condition exists, the
RPM limit detector will illuminate the RPM caution lights and create an audible signal for the pilot and copilot. When an
engine underspeed condition exists, the RPM limit detector will illuminate the respective ENG 1/2 OUT caution light on the
instrument panel.

CAUTION AND WARNING SYSTEM - FIRE DETECTION WARNING SYSTEM
Each system consists of two heat sensing elements located on the LH or RH sides of the engine compartment upper cowling.
The heat sensing elements are connected to an amplifier unit located on the cabin roof and connected, via electrical wiring,
to the FIRE PULL warning light of the fire extinguisher handle. These heat sensing elements exhibit high electrical
resistance at normal ambient temperature but their resistance drops radiply when they are heated.
The amplifier unit senses the increasing or decreasing resistance of the heat sensing elements that are connected to the unit.
When resistance of the heat sensing elements decreases the amplifier unit delivers output signal that causes the FIRE PULL
warning light to illuminate. When the resistance of the heat sensing elements rises to its normal value, i. e. when the engine
compartment temperature becomes normal, the amplifier unit cuts off power to the FIRE PULL warning light. Each system
is powered by 28 Vdc and protected by the ENG FIRE DET circuit breaker. The system is provided with a FIRE EXT TEST
push-button switch installed on the instrument panel which, when pressed, connects a low resistance circuit condition in the
engine compartment.
1. Close ENG 1 FIRE DET circuit breaker. Depress PRESS TO TEST fire detector test switch (S5) or (1A2S2). Check
that FIRE 1 PULL warning light on left-hand emergency handle is illuminated.
2. Release test switch. Check that FIRE 1 PULL warning light on left-hand emergency handle is extinguished.

1. Visually inspect the amplifier unit for damaged, cracked case or mounting tabs.
The system consists of a smoke detector located in the forward end of the baggage compartment roof and protected from
baggage damage by a protective guard. The smoke detector is connected to an amplifier unit located in the helicopter nose
section and connected, via electrical wiring, to the BAGGAGE FIRE warning light on the instrument panel. The smoke
detector is a closed assembly housing solid-state electronic components and a light sensitive detector. The instant that smoke
reduces light transmission in the baggage compartment 30 to 35% below that of clear air, the smoke detector will send a
signal to the fire detector control amplifier. This will cause the fire detection light to illuminate (flashing ON and OFF)
intermittently.
The system is powered by 28 Vdc and protected by the BAG COMPT FIRE DET circuit breaker. A BAGGAGE FIRE TEST
SWITCH push-button installed on the instrument panel permits, when depressed, simulation of a fire condition in the
baggage compartment

FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEMS
Flight control systems include force trim and hydraulic control solenoid systems. Refer to chapter 98 for applicable wiring
diagrams.
For helicopters codes [A] [B] magnetic brake, pitch trim actuator, and roll trim actuator are wired in parallel to 28 Vdc ESS
BUS NO. 2 through control switches and FORCE TRIM circuit breakers.
For helicopters codes [C] [D], magnetic brake, pitch trim actuator, and roll trim actuator are wired in parallel to 28 Vdc
EMERGENCY BUS NO. 2 through control switches and FORCE TRIM circuit breakers.
Control switching is accomplished through series wired FORCE TRIM switch located on the MISC control panel, and
normally closed pilot and copilot pushbutton cyclic stick force trim switches. The force trim system provides spring forces
to maintain control system linkage position and thus relieve pilot/copilot from the strain of holding the controls in a
particular position. The switches allow the magnetic brakes and trim actuators to be disengaged and repositioned as required.
The force trim system is deenergized when the FORCE TRIM switch is set to OFF.
NOTE
If the copilot stick is not installed, a 412-075-037-119 cable assembly must be
installed in copilot cyclic stick receptacle.

The two electrically operated fuel boost pumps are submerged one each in the right hand and left hand fuel cells and
connected to a common fuel line when the crossfeed valve is energized. The pumps are energized from the essential dc power
bus through the No. 1 FUEL BOOST and No. 2 FUEL BOOST circuit breakers and controlled by either ENG 1 or ENG 2
BUST PUMP switches in the pilot engine control panel.
Each lower main cell sump assembly is equipped with a fuel boost pump that provides a flow of fuel to the respective engine
(crossfeed operation enables a single boost pump to supply fuel to both engines). No. 1 dc essential bus powers No. 1 (left)
boost pump. That circuit is protected by ENGINE NO 1 FUEL BOOST circuit breaker. ENGINE 1 BOOST PUMP switch
on engine and fuel control panel controls the pump. Similarly, No. 2 (right) boost pump is powered by No. 2 dc essential bus
through ENGINE NO 2 FUEL BOOST circuit breaker and is controlled by ENGINE 2 BOOST PUMP switch on engine
and fuel control panel.

Sump assemblies in both lower forward cells are equipped with transfer pumps that pump fuel from lower forward cells to
lower main cells through ejector pumps mounted in lower middle cells. Fuel flowing from transfer pumps provides motive
force for ejector pumps to empty fuel from lower middle cells into lower main cells. In normal operations, fuel level sensors
(thermistors) in forward fuel cells trigger the fuel signal conditioners to shut off the transfer pumps 60 seconds after forward
fuel cells empty.
Left lower forward cell transfer pump is powered by No. 1 dc essential bus through ENGINE NO 1 FUEL TRANS circuit
breaker and in addition to the automatic shutoff feature, is controlled by ENGINE 1 FUEL TRANS switch located on engine
and fuel control panel.
Similarly, right lower forward cell transfer pump is powered by 28 Vdc emergency bus No. 2 through ENGINE NO 2 FUEL

The fuel valves open or close to control the flow of fuel to the engines and between the tanks. Power is supplied to these
valves by the essential buses through circuit breakers No. 1 FUEL VALVE, No. 2 FUEL VALVE. Engine No. 1 fuel control
valve is controlled by ENG 1 FUEL switch for a normal operation. Engine No. 2 fuel control valve is controlled by ENG 2
FUEL switch for normal operation. Engine No. 1 fuel control valve will return to its closed position when the FIRE 1 PULL
handle is pulled out. This stops the flow of fuel to engine No. 1 in the event of fire in the engine area. Engine No. 2 fuel
control valve will close when the FIRE 2 PULL handle is pulled out. This stops the flow of fuel to engine No. 2 in the event
of fire in that engine area.

Motor-operated fuel shutoff valves open or close to control flow of fuel to engines. The valves receive power from dc
emergency buses through ENGINE NO 1 FUEL VALVE and ENGINE NO 2 FUEL VALVE circuit breakers.
During normal operation No. 1 fuel shutoff valve is controlled by ENGINE 1 FUEL switch located on engine and fuel
control panel. When pulled during an engine fire emergency, FIRE 1 PULL handle switch, located on instrument panel,
causes valve to close, stopping flow of fuel to engine No. 1. No. 2 fuel shutoff valve is similarly controlled by ENGINE 2
FUEL switch on engine and fuel control panel and instrument panel-mounted FIRE 2 PULL handle switch.
WARNING
NOTE
Due to presence of diodes (1A1CR7 and 1A1CR8) on ENGINE 1 FUEL and
ENGINE 2 FUEL switches, FUEL VALVE caution segment on master caution panel
will illuminate when engine fuel switch position does not agree with fuel shutoff
valve position after a fire pull handle is pulled. Also, illumination will occur during

The fuel control solenoid valves, one for each engine, provide a method of bypassing the engine fuel control governors. Each
solenoid is protected by a separate FUEL CONT circuit breaker. When ENG No. 1 GOV and ENG No. 2 GOV switches are
to the AUTO position, the solenoids are deenergized, the twist grip throttle controls are manually set full on and the speed
of each engine is controlled by the governor. When the switches are set to MANUAL, the solenoids are energized, the
governors are bypassed, and engine control is by the manual twist grip operation.
Placing either switch to MANUAL also provides a 28 Vdc signal to the master caution panel and the legend GOV MAN is
illuminated.
Each engine fuel control contains a solenoid valve that provides a method of bypassing engine fuel control governors. Fuel
control valve No. 1 solenoid is powered by dc essential bus No. 1 through ENGINE NO 1 FUEL CONTR circuit breaker
and is controlled by ENGINE 1 GOV switch located on engine and fuel control panel. Similarly, fuel control valve No. 2
solenoid is powered from dc essential bus No. 2 through ENGINE NO 2 FUEL CONTR circuit breaker and is controlled by
ENGINE 2 GOV switch on engine and fuel control panel.
When switches ENG 1 GOV and ENG 2 GOV are positioned to AUTO, solenoids are deenergized, twist grip throttle
controls are manually set full-on, and speed of each engine is controlled by the governor. When switches ENG 1 GOV and
ENG 2 GOV are positioned to MANUAL, solenoids are energized, governors are bypassed, and engine fuel control is by
manual twist grip operation.

Two motor-operated valves enable interconnection or isolation of the forward fuel cells. The forward interconnect valve is
in the line between the forward compartments of the forward cells, and the aft interconnect valve is in the line between the
aft compartments of those cells. Powered by the 28 V dc emergency bus No. 2 through the FUEL INTCON circuit breaker,
both valves are controlled by the INTCON switch on the engine and fuel control panel. Both valves are closed when the
ITCON switch is in the normal (NORM) operating position, thus isolating forward cells from each other. Both valves open
when the INTCON switch is positioned to OPEN, and fuel is free to move from on forward cell to the other by gravity feed.
96-73-01
Page 10
E-AB412-PT6T-2
Lower main cells are connected by a fuel line containing a fuel interconnect valve. This motor-operated fuel interconnect
valve enables interconnection or isolation of lower main cells, as desired. Powered by dc emergency buses through ENGINE
NO 1 FUEL INTCON and ENGINE NO 2 FUEL INTCON circuit breakers, the valve is controlled by FUEL INTCON
switch, located on engine and fuel control panel and by associated fuel interconnect relays.
The fuel interconnect valve is closed when FUEL INTCON switch is in normal (NORM) operating position, thus isolating
lower main cells from each other and, therefore, isolating all lower right cells from all lower left cells. The valve opens when
FUEL INTCON switch is positioned to OPEN, and it opens automatically when the FUEL LOW caution light on master
caution panel illuminates. Positioning FUEL INTCON switch to OVRD CLOSE, closes the valve after it has opened
automatically.
The FUEL INTCON switch is mounted on the engine and fuel control panel, and permits testing of the system on the ground.
Verification of proper operation is possible by monitoring FUEL INTCON caution light on master caution panel. Caution
panel segment should be illuminated only during valve transit.
NOTE
Verify sufficient fuel is on board to cause FUEL LOW caution panel segment to
remain extinguished.
— MASTER CAUTION
5. Verify FUEL INTCON caution light illuminates and extinguishes (indicating valve has opened).
7. Verify FUEL INTCON caution light illuminates and extinguishes (valve has closed).
9. Verify FUEL INTCON caution light remains extinguished (indicating valve remained closed).
96-73-01
Page 11
E-AB412-PT6T-2
NOTE
In the following step, monitor FUEL LOW and FUEL INTCON caution panel
segments on master caution panel. With helicopter level, FUEL INTCON segment
should illuminate and then extinguish at about the moment FUEL LOW segment
illuminates. If fuel level in upper right and upper left cells is unequal, FUEL LOW
segment may illuminate while FUEL INTCON segment remains extinguished. If
this condition occurs, additional fuel must be drained to cause AFT fuel interconnect
valve to move from closed to open.
10. Refer to Chapter 12 and drain fuel from helicopter until FUEL LOW caution panel segment illuminates.
11. Verify FUEL INTCON caution panel segment illuminates and then extinguishes (indicating valve opened
automatically in response to low fuel level condition).
13. Verify FUEL INTCON caution panel segment illuminates and then extinguishes (indicating valve has closed).
The motor-operated fuel crossfeed valve (B19) or (1B10) enables interconnection or isolation of the engine No. 1 powered
from both 28 V dc essential buses through the 4-ampere FUEL XFEED circuit breakers. The valve is controlled manually
by the FUEL XFEED switch (S16) or (1A1AS8) on the engine fuel control panel (A3) or (1A1) and is controlled (opened)
automatically by a ground provided to the coil of the fuel crossfeed relay (K23) or (1A1K1) by the right forward cell flow
switch (S86) or (1Z4S1) or the left forward cell flow switch (S87) or (1Z5S1).
The fuel crossfeed valve is closed when the FUEL XFEED switch is in the normal (NORM) operating position. Loss of fuel
flow through in either of the flow switches causes the fuel crossfeed relay to actuate, thus opening the valve and allowing a
single boost pump to provided fuel to both engines. Positioning the FUEL XFEED switch to OVRD CLOSE closes the valve
after it has been opened automatically.
The system is equipped with the FUEL XEED test switch (S203) or (1A1S9) that permits testing the system on the ground.
Verification of proper operation of the fuel crossfeed valve and associated circuit is possible by monitoring the FUEL
XFEED caution panel segment. The caution panel segment should be illuminated only during valve transit.
The motor-operated fuel crossfeed valve enables interconnection, or isolation, of engine No. 1 and engine No. 2 fuel feed
lines. The system is powered from both dc essential buses through ENGINE NO 1 FUEL XFEED and ENGINE NO 2 FUEL
XFEED circuit breakers. The valve is controlled by FUEL XFEED switch on engine and fuel control panel and is controlled
automatically (opened) when a loss of fuel pressure in either engine feed line is sensed by No. 1 fuel pressure switch (left)
or No. 2 fuel pressure switch (right).
Fuel crossfeed valve is closed when FUEL XFEED switch is in normal (NORM) operating position. Loss of fuel pressure
in either engine feed line causes fuel crossfeed relay, located in engine and fuel control panel, to actuate, thus opening the
valve and allowing a single boost pump to provide fuel to both engines. Positioning FUEL XFEED switch to OVRD CLOSE

Governor rpm actuator allows engine rpm of both engines to be fine tuned over a small range centered around a value
determined by engine governors. The actuator has no effect when in MANUAL control mode. The system consists of a two
spring loaded center off, RPM loop switches, pilot and copilot, and governor rpm actuator. The circuit is powered through
the 5-ampere GOV CONT circuit breaker. When ever the pilot or copilot switch is positioned to INCR, the actuator will
retract, and RPM to increase. Positioning the switch to DECR will cause the actuator to extend and the RPM to decrease.

This system provides a means of filtering intake air so that foreign objects will be prevented from entering engines. The
system consists of engine No. 1 and No. 2 particle separator, engine No. 1 and No. 2 particle separator actuators, No. 1 and
No. 2, particle separator 1 and 2 relays, and ENG 1 PART SEP OFF and ENG 2 PART SEP OFF caution lights. Particle
separator actuators are energized from essential dc buses via ENGINE NO 1 PART SEP and ENGINE NO 2 PART SEP
circuit breakers. Control of particle separator actuators is accomplished by signals from RPM LIMIT DETECTOR which
extend engine No. 1 and engine No. 2 particle separator actuators and illuminate ENG 1 PART SEP OFF and ENG 2 PART
SEP OFF caution lights. When engines are operating at flight idle speed or above, particle separator control relays are
deenergized, enabling engine No. 1 and No. 2 particle separator actuators to retract and extinguish ENG 1 PART SEP OFF
and ENG 2 PART SEP OFF caution lights. FIRE 1 PULL handle switch and FIRE 2 PULL handle switch override the above
control when energized. Pulling either fire pull handle extends corresponding particle separator actuator and illuminates

E-AB412-PT6T-2
1. Remove moisture, dust and loose dirt with a clean, soft cloth.
WARNING
2. Remove grease, fungus, and ground-in dirt from the avionic equipment cases and mountings: use a damp cloth
moistened (not wet) with cleaning compound.
Before performing the Operational Check procedures for an avionic system, visually inspect or check that the units and
components of the avionic system are free from ”defects”. If any of the following conditions exist on the components or
equipment, make the necessary repairs or replace.
— Faulty circuit breakers which will not remain closed when inserted under normal load conditions. Switches
(rotary, sliding, tumbler, push-pull) with loose mounting, weak position detents or intermittent circuit
connections.
— Panels with poor legibility of switch and selector setting markings or defective lighting. Loose knobs on control
panels.
— Faulty ICS Junction Box printed - circuit board (cracked or corroded printed-circuit board: intermittent or loose
connector: loose mounting).
— Burned, discoloured, corroded, cracked or broken components of the ICS Junction Box.
— Relays with dented, cracked or corroded connectors. Relays which are loose in the receptacle or mounting or
make an intermittent connection when lightly tapped by hand or a small insulated object. Loose terminal boards
and components with defective mounting: components that are cracked, dented, chipped, discoloured from

Follow the procedure outlined below for a logical approach to voltage measurements.
NOTE
Make certain that the multimeter is correctly connected. Select the applicable
voltage range for the most accurate reading to match the value given on the
respective avionic system circuit diagram
1. Perform AC and DC voltage measurements where applicable if the units and airframe components of the respective
avionic system do not allow a satisfactory Operational Check to be carried out.
2. Check the primary input voltage on the load side of the appropriate circuit breaker as shown in the avionic system
circuit diagram.
Ensure that all supply voltages are removed from the system under investigation. Carry out impedance measurements using
a multimeter set to the resistance ranges. Apply the continuity trace technique to localize defects in connectors, conductors,
terminal boards, diodes, resistors, capacitors, transistors, relays, inductors, switches, selectors and units, where possible. For
a logical approach to the analysis of faults. When checking airframe conductors and components within an avionic system,
follow the following suggested sequence:
NOTE
Apply continuity trace techniques after faulty component(s) and/ or unit(s) are
suspected during the Operational Check of the avionic system. The fault may be
apparent from unsatisfactory operation in a particular mode, abnormal voltage,
abnormal signal levels or from equipment substitution.
NOTE
With certain component and/or equipment faults it may be necessary to make
voltage measurements and/or use continuity trace techniques to locate the fault.
1. Analyze the respective avionic system circuit diagram for airframe inter-unit conductor paths (single, parallel and
series): consider resistors, diodes and relay holding coils etc. which may after the sum total resistance of individual
conductor paths.
NOTE
Check that the multimeter movement is free and that the meter will zero on all
ranges.
NOTE
In performing resistance measurements, select the multimeter range to give the most
accurate reading of the inter-unit conductor path, conductor, resistor, diode, relay
holding coil, transistor or capacitor.
2. Check the continuity and resistance of the individual conductors within the inter-unit cable forms.
3. Check the continuity and resistance of the individual conductors for abnormal conductivity with respect to the adjacent
conductors, conductor shield and earth.
97-00-00
Page 3
E-AB412-PT6T-2
6. Check capacitors for stowage factor. (Deflection of multimeter pointer and rate of return to zero).
1. Repair of avionic systems consists in general of the removal of a defective unit and replacement from maintenance
stocks. When removal and replacement of a unit or other repair procedures require performing repairs on the airframe,
aircraft engine controls or other items that directly affect the flight of the aircraft, the repair effort must be performed
by, or coordinated with, the pilot of the helicopter.
2. When a troubleshooting procedure indicates a defective unit, follow the applicable removal procedures given in the
respective section. Replace the unit with a known serviceable unit. After the unit has been replaced, install safety
wiring on the mounting hardware and electrical connectors.
CAUTION
Mounting hardware and electrical connectors for the individual units must be secured with safety wire to prevent the
hardware or connectors becoming loose during normal operation. Tighten the mounting hardware and install the safety wire
in such a way that loosening of the hardware will cause the safety wire to tighten. Use new safety wire and take care not to
kink the wire.
Use steel, corrosion-resistant wire with the ”double twist” method for mounting hardware and electrical connectors of all
units in the avionics systems. For complete safety wiring practices, refer to Appendix I.
When using a DC External Power Source to perform the operational check procedures in the following paragraphs, insert
the DC Circuit Breakers listed below to energize the DC and AC System of the helicopter.
— NO. 1 ESSENTIAL BUS FEEDERS (4)
— GEN RESET 1

INTERCOMMUNICATION SYSTEM (ICS) AG-06-1(A)
NOTE
See module 97-30-01 for the Interphone System wiring diagram. See figure 1 for
location of the Interphone System components and figure 2 for system block
diagram.
The Interphone Communication System (ICS) provides communication between pilots and between pilots and passenger as
well as the selection and control of associated navigation and communication equipment.
The ICS includes four Control Panels; the pilot's and copilot's Control Panels located on the Pedestal and the passenger
Control Panels located in the passenger cabin. Power is supplied by the + 28V DC System via the ICS PLT, CPLT and
CABIN Circuit Breakers.
The ICS/RADIO switches located on cyclic stick grip provide interphone transmission and radio transmission. Two foot
switches are located adjacent to the pilot and copilot's seats and are used to provide hand free operation of the radio
transmitters.
A HOT MIC switch on each audio control panel provides hand free operation of the interphone function.
Signals received by the navigation and communication equipment are directed to the ICS Control Panels, where signal
selection is made and volume is controlled, and then directed to the headsets.
In the case of internal communication, signals from a station where ICS has been selected pass via the associated ICS Control
Panel to the other stations where they may be selected and monitored. During radio transmission, signals pass from the
microphone to the selected transmitter via the Control Panel.
Visually inspect the intercommunication equipment, interconnecting cabling and connectors for damage and security.
Connect an external power source adjusted to 28 V DC to the helicopter external power receptacle.
NOTE
Ascertain that transmitters are set to authorized frequencies.

GYROCOMPASS SYSTEM AN/ASN-75
NOTE
See module 97-30-03 for gyrocompass system wiring diagram. See figure 1 for
location of the units of the gyrocompass system in the helicopter and figure 2 for
system block diagram.
The gyrocompass system provides to the pilots the helicopter magnetic heading indication. The system is composed of two
indicators (HSI), a compass transmitter, a remote compensator, a directional gyro and amplifier, a synchro amplifier and a
control panel. The indicators (HSI), figure 9-8, are installed on the instrument panel and present the signals supplied by the
system. The rotating scale shows the heading with respect to the fixed reference index. The indicators are powered by 26
and 115 V AC, thru the COURSE HSI (2), PILOT HSI, and CPLT HSI circuit breakers. The compass transmitter is located
in the tailboom and is provided to survey the force lines of the earth magnetic field. The remote compensator, secured close
to the transmitter, compensates the foreign magnetic fields that can affect the transmitter. The directional gyro senses the
helicopter heading while the amplifier and the synchro amplifier provide a proper amplitude of the heading signal in order
to drive the indicator instrument. The base of the directional gyro is provided with a knob for the latitude correction. By
positioning this knob on the local latitude value the apparent procession of the gyro caused by the earth rotation is rectified.
The correction must be positive or negative for the northern or southern hemisphere. This selection is performed by actuating
the switch placed besides the latitude correction knob. The synchro amplifier and the directional gyro and amplifier are
located on the helicopter nose lower compartment.
The control panel is located on the central pedestal LH side (figure 3); it is provided with a COMPASS DG/MAG switch, a
synchronizing knob, and a synchronizing warning indicator. The COMPASS DG/MAG switch selects the operating mode
of the system; gyroscope slaved to earth magnetic field thru the transmitter (MAG) or free gyroscope (DG).
The system normally operates with slaved gyroscope (MAG) and will be switched into DG at the extreme latitudes, where,
the lines of force of the earth magnetic field do not give reliable bearings.
The synchronizing knob is used to line-up the gyroscope to the direction of the force lines surveyed by the transmitter; it
must be rotated to the direction shown by the synchronizing warning indicator. The gyrocompass system is powered by 115
V AC and is protected by the GYRO CMPS circuit breaker.
2. Connect an external power source adjusted to 28 V DC to the helicopter external power receptacle.
4. Energize the system by closing GYRO CMPS, COURSE HSI (2), PILOT HSI and CPLT HSI circuit breakers.
6. Synchronize the system by turning the synchronizing knob in the direction indicated by the warning eight until the
index of the warning indicator returns to center position.
7. When the system is synchronized, the indication on the pilot's HSI must coincide with the known magnetic heading
towards the helicopter is oriented.
97-20-03
Page 1
E-AB412-PT6T-2
8. Observe the magnetic heading of the system, as shown on the pilot's HSI and note that the copilot's HSI displays a
heading 2° of the pilot's HSI.
NOTE
Unless the helicopter engine is running, each indicator should be tapped lightly
before indication is read.
9. Turn the synchronizing knob until heading indication is 10° greater than indicated in step g.
Watch synchronizing warning indicator to see that correct indication dot (.) appears.
10. Synchronize the system and observe heading indication. Also observe that HSI rotate smoothly.
11. Turn the synchronizing knob until heading indication is 10° less than indicated in step j.
Watch synchronizing warning indicator to see that correct indication cross (+) appears. Observe indicator for sufficient
period of time to see that indication of instruments return to original values.
12. Place COMPASS switch to DG position. With any previous synchronizing condition the indication on the warning
indicator must return and remain to center position.
13. Position LATITUDE knob, located at the base of the directional gyro, on the local latitude value. Position LATITUDE
switch to N if the helicopter operates in northern emisphere, to S if operates in southern emisphere.
14. Rotate the synchronizing knob until the indicator dial is positioned to the known heading. The indication of the
warning indicator must remain in center position.
15. Ascertain that the indicator panel lights illuminate when instrument lighting is turned on.
16. Disengage the circuit breakers. Ascertain that OFF flag is visible on the HSI.

When an adjustment of the gyrocompass system is required, perform the following procedure:
CAUTION
1. The helicopter shall be positioned at least 100 m (30 ft) away from cars, steel constructions, other helicopters or
magnetic fields in general.
4. The helicopter shall be placed in an area without ferrous materials and magnetic fields, such as underground pipes and
electrical cables.
5. All equipments normally installed on the helicopter and that can produce magnetic effects shall be set in flight altitude.
NOTE
Ground swinging can generally be considered satisfactory for most types of aircraft.
Unless it is found that for a particular type of aircraft the engine operation affects the
indication of the transmitter, the engines do not need running during the adjustment.
In this case, the proper excitation voltage is supplied by means of an auxiliary power
source.
1. Place the Slaved Gyro Magnetic Compass in operation and allow several minutes for the gyro to come up to speed and
”slave” to magnetic north.
2. Set the aircraft on the compass rose and rotate it to each of the four cardinal headings. Record the differences in
readings as plus or minus, depending on whether the readings are greater or less than the correct headings. Allow
sufficient time for the dial to settle out at each heading before taking the readings.
97-20-03
Page 6
E-AB412-PT6T-2
NOTE
Instead of the compass rose, a magnetic sighting compass may be used. To take a
reading, the compass is located at a considerable distance forward or aft of the
aircraft and is moved back and forth from the line of sight coinciding with the fore
and aft (longitudinal) axis of the plane. When a sight is taken facing aft, 180°t must
be added or substracted from the sighting compass reading. When facing forward,
the compass reads directly.
3. Add the errors algebrically and divide by four. The result is the index error. Loosen the screws holding the transmitter
flange to its mounting surface and rotate the flange of the unit to cancel out the index error. If the error is positive, the
flange should be rotated in the minus (-) or counterclockwise direction, as observed from above the unit. If the error
is negative, rotate the flange in the positive (+) or clockwise direction. The amount of rotation should be equal the
index error.
4. Tighten the mounting screws and recheck the readings at the four cardinal headings. Recalculate the index error to
make sure it is zero. If it is not zero, readjust the transmitter flange until this error is cancelled. Any remaining errors
in excess of ± 1 ° are caused by extraneous magnetic influences and should be counteracted by using single-cycle
compensating.
1. Set the single-cycle error compensator to the neutral position by lining up the two dots, one on each adjusting shaft
and one on the case adjacent to each shaft.
2. To remove the single-cycle error, perform the following steps: place the aircraft on a north heading (0°) (if it is not
already on that heading). Correct for all the error at this heading by turning the north-south adjusting shaft on the
transmitter compensator until the slaved gyro magnetic compass reading changes by an amount equal to the error at
this heading, but in the apposite direction. The correction must be made to within ± 0.5°.
3. Turn the aircraft to an east heading (90°). Correct for all the errors at this heading by turning the east-west adjusting
shaft until the slaved gyro magnetic compass reading changes an amount equal to the error at this heading, but in the
opposite direction. The correction must be made to within ± 0.5°.
4. Position the aircraft on a south heading (180°). Take out half the error, if any, with the north-south adjusting shaft by
observing the reading on the Slaved Gyro Magnetic Compass. The correction must be made to within ± 0.5°.
5. Place the aircraft on a west heading (270°). Take out half the error, if any, with the east-west adjusting shaft by
observing the reading on the Slaved Gyro Magnetic Compass. The correction must be made to within ± 0.5°.
6. As a check, swing the aircraft on 30° increments and note the readings. All readings should be within ± 1.0 of the
magnetic heading. If the errors noted are not tolerable, repeat the Index Error and Single-Cycle Error Compensator
Adjustment procedures.

Two horizontal situation indicators (figure 4) installed on the instrument panel provide overall navigational information by
means of the following displays:
the rotating azimuth dial (compass card) presents heading data received from the three axis reference sensor. Helicopter
heading is read under the upper lubber line.
The command heading marker is a movable reference point which indicates the selected command heading. It is set to a
selected heading by the heading set knob. When the helicopter is flying the selected heading, the command heading marker
will be aligned on the lubber line. The marker moves with the azimuth dial except when being mechanically positioned by
the heading set knob.
The command course pointer is a movable reference point indicating the selected command radio course.
It is set to a selected course with the course set knob.
When the helicopter is flying the selected course, the course pointer will be aligned on the lubber line.
The digital course readout presented in the course window is set by the course set knob and corresponds to the setting of the
command course pointer.
The deviation bar depicts the relationship of the selected radio beam centerline with respect to the present navigation
situation.
The fixed aircraft symbol represents the helicopter and the deviation bar depicts the radio beam position in respect to the
helicopter. When the helicopter is on the selected radio course, the deviation bar will be aligned with the course pointer and
the fixed aircraft symbol.
The to-from pointer depicts the location of the selected station will respect to the helicopter's position. The TO pointer is
displayed at the nose of the fixed aircraft symbol and the FROM pointer is displayed at the tail of the fixed aircraft symbol.
The No. 1 and No. 2 bearing pointers indicate the magnetic bearing from the helicopter to the ground station.
The two warning flags-power (OFF) and deviation flag (red flag) provide visual indication of system malfunctions. The
warning flag will come into view whenever a malfunction occurs. For maintenance procedures, refer to module 95-31-10
