3. Job Set-up
WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT ALL ENGINE OPERATING AREAS ARE AS CLEAN AS POSSIBLE. ALL RAMPS, TAXIWAYS, RUNWAYS AND OTHER OPERATING AREAS MUST BE VERY CLEAN TO PREVENT BAD DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE, AIRCRAFT AND PERSONS IN THE AREA.
WARNING: DO NOT TOUCH THE PROBES DURING OR IMMEDIATELY AFTER THIS PROCEDURE. THE PROBES WILL BE HOT AND CAN BURN YOU.
WARNING: DO NOT TRY TO STOP THE FAN FROM TURNING BY HAND. THIS CAN CAUSE INJURY TO THE PERSONS AND DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT.
WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT THE LANDING GEAR GROUND SAFETIES AND THE WHEEL CHOCKS ARE IN POSITION. MOVEMENT OF THE AIRCRAFT CAN BE DANGEROUS.
WARNING: DO NOT REMOVE THE FILLER CAP OF THE OIL TANK IMMEDIATELY AFTER ENGINE OPERATION. LET THE OIL PRESSURE DECREASE FOR A MINIMUM OF 5 MINUTES AFTER THE ENGINE SHUTDOWN. IF YOU OPEN THE FILLER CAP WHEN THERE IS PRESSURE IN THE TANK, THE OIL CAN BURN YOU DANGEROUSLY.
WARNING: DO NOT PERFORM WET-MOTORING IN A HANGAR OR IN A CLOSED AREA. A LARGE QUANTITY OF HIGHLY FLAMMABLE FUEL VAPORS COME OUT FROM THE ENGINE DURING THIS PROCEDURE AND THERE IS A RISK OF FIRE.
WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT THE TRAVEL RANGES OF THE FLIGHT CONTROLS SURFACES ARE CLEAR. MOVEMENT OF FLIGHT CONTROLS CAN CAUSE INJURY TO PERSONS AND/OR DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT.
CAUTION: DO NOT MOTOR THE ENGINE WITH EITHER THE FAN COWLS OR THRUST REVERSER HALVE(S) OPEN WHEN THE WIND SPEED IS 50 MPH (80 KM/H) OR MORE. OTHERWISE INJURY AND/OR DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE CAN OCCUR.
CAUTION: - SEE THE APPLICABLE FIGURE FOR WIND LIMIT RESTRICTIONS WHEN THE ENGINE OPERATES.
  • NATURAL WINDS AND IRREGULAR FORCES FROM SUDDEN GUSTS INCREASE THE DANGEROUS AREA.
  • DO NOT GO ABOVE OPEN COWLING LIMITATIONS WHEN YOU DO THE TESTS.
  • THE OPERATOR MUST FULLY KNOW ALL THE OPERATING LIMITS AND PROCEDURES BEFORE THE ENGINE OPERATES.
CAUTION: MAKE SURE THE FAN COWLS AND THRUST REVERSER HALVES ARE SECURELY HELD OPEN DURING MOTORING. MAKE SURE HOLD OPEN RODS ARE SERVICEABLE.
CAUTION: MAKE SURE THAT THERE IS NO HYDRAULIC GROUND POWER SUPPLY CONNECTED TO THE AIRCRAFT WHEN YOU DO THIS PROCEDURE. IF A HYDRAULIC GROUND POWER SUPPLY IS CONNECTED, THERE IS A RISK OF DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE PUMPS.
CAUTION: MAKE SURE THAT THE C/B'S 1KC1/2 ARE CLOSED WHEN YOU DO THIS PROCEDURE. THIS IS A CHECK TO PREVENT FUEL FLOODING AND TO PREVENT ENGIRE FIRE.

A. Safety Precautions
CAUTION: REMOVE THE PROTECTIVE COVERS FROM THE PROBES BEFORE YOU DO THIS PROCEDURE. IF YOU DO NOT REMOVE THEM, THE PROBES AND PROTECTIVE COVERS CAN BECOME DAMAGED OR BURNED.
   (1) Make sure that all the protective covers are removed from the aircraft (Ref. AMM TASK 10-11-00-555-014).

WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT THE THRUST REVERSER HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT (HCU) IS DEACTIVATED BEFORE YOU DO WORK ON OR AROUND THE THRUST REVERSER. IF THE HCU IS NOT DEACTIVATED, THERE IS A RISK OF UNWANTED THRUST REVERSER OPERATION WHICH CAN CAUSE INJURY TO PERSONS AND/OR DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT.
   (1) Deactivate the thrust reverser hydraulic control unit (HCU) (Ref. AMM TASK 78-30-00-040-012).
   (2) Deactivate the thrust reverser system (Ref. AMM TASK 78-30-00-040-013).

   (3) On the lower ECAM display unit:
     (a) get the HYDRAULIC page
     (b) make sure that the pressure of the Green reservoir for the engine 1 (Yellow reservoir for the engine 2) is correct
     (c) make sure that the reservoir fluid level is correct.
   (4) Make sure that the engine 1(2) pump is serviceable (on the panel 40VU, the OFF legend of the ENG1(2) PUMP pushbutton switch must be off).
   (5) Do the operational test of the engine fire and overheat detection (loop and squib test).
4. Procedure
Subtask 71-00-00-710-182-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
CAUTION: MAKE SURE THAT THE HYDRAULIC RESERVOIR PRESSURE IS IN THE CORRECT OPERATION RANGE BEFORE YOU MOTOR THE ENGINE (THE HYDRAULIC FLUID IS NECESSARY TO LUBRICATE THE HYDRAULIC PUMPS THAT THE ENGINE OPERATE).
CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE THE ENGINE IF THE FUEL INLET PRESSURE IS NOT POSITIVE (THE FUEL IS NECESSARY TO LUBRICATE THE ENGINE FUEL PUMP AND THE FMU AND THUS PREVENT DAMAGE).
CAUTION: DO NOT MOTOR THE ENGINE MORE THAN THE LIMIT OR YOU CAN DAMAGE THE STARTER.
A. Do this test:
NOTE: For general information refer to Engine Operation Limits, Guidelines and Special Procedures (Ref. AMM TASK 71-00-00-860-010).
ACTION
RESULT
1.On the HYD/FUEL panel 40VU:

  • push all the FUEL/PUMPS pushbutton switches
  • the OFF legends of these pushbutton switches go off.
2.Make sure that the throttle control lever of the engine 1(2) is in the idle stop position (zero on the graduated sector).

3.On the ENG panel 115VU:

  • set the ENG/MODE/CRANK/NORM/IGN/START selector switch to CRANK.
On the lower ECAM display unit:
  • the ENGINE page comes into view
  • make sure that the available air pressure is between 30 psi (2.07 bar) and 40 psi (2.76 bar)
  • do a check of the oil quantity in the oil tank (Ref. AMM TASK 12-13-79-610-011).
4.On the overhead control and indicating panel 22VU:

  • push the ENG/MAN START/1(2) pushbutton switch
  • the ON legend of this pushbutton switch comes on
  • on the lower ECAM display unit, on the ENGINE page:
  • the symbol for the starter valve is in the open position.
NOTE: Make sure that you do not go over the starter limits that follows:
  • 3 consecutive cycles, two of 2 minutes and one of 1 minute duration maximum
  • 15 seconds of no operation between cycles to allow for starter rotor relubrication
  • after 3 cycles or 4 minutes of continuous cranking , wait 30 minutes to allow the starter to cool before you try a new start or motoring.
5.When the N2 speed is more (or equal) than 15 percent:

  • on the ENG panel 115VU, set the ENG/MASTER 1(2) switch to ON.
On the upper ECAM display unit:
  • the fuel flow indication FF increases.
    On the lower ECAM display unit:
  • make sure that the oil pressure indication is positive.
NOTE: Do not turn the engine for more than 20 seconds with the ENG/MASTER 1(2) switch in the ON position. Large quantities of fuel can be collected in the engine if the ENG/MASTER 1(2) switch stays ON for more than this time.
6.On the ENG panel 115VU:

  • set the ENG/MASTER 1(2) switch to OFF
  • the starter valve goes to closed position.
    On the lower ECAM display unit:
  • the symbol for the starter valve is in the closed position.
NOTE: The EEC re-engages automatically the starter valve when the N2 speed is below 10 percent.
  • while the engine is motored, do a visual check for leaks at the fuel and oil system tubes and manifolds.
7.When on the lower ECAM display unit, the symbol for the starter valve is in the open position, motor the engine for a minimum of 60 seconds.
This dries the fuel that can be in the combustor.
NOTE: Do not motor the engine for more than 120 seconds.
8.After a lapse of fuel drying time of between 60 and 120 seconds, on the overhead control and indicating panel 22VU:

  • release the ENG/MAN START/1(2) pushbutton switch
  • the ON legend of the ENG/MAN START/1(2) pushbutton switch goes off
  • on the lower ECAM display unit:
  • the symbol for the starter valve is in the closed position.
9.On the ENG panel 115VU:

  • set the ENG/MODE/CRANK/NORM/IGN/START selector switch to NORM.
On the lower ECAM display unit:
  • the ENGINE page goes out of view.
10.On the HYD/FUEL panel 40VU:

  • release all the FUEL/PUMPS pushbutton switches
  • the OFF legends of these pushbutton switches come on.
NOTE: During engine shutdown, listen for unusual noise from the turning components of the engine.
