(d) If the self-locking nut torque is more than 4.5 lbf.in (0.05 m.daN), but less than 31 lbf.in (0.35 m.daN):
1 TORQUE the screws to between 139.65 and 126.35 lbf.in (1.58 and 1.43 m.daN ).
2 Loosen the screws.
3 TORQUE the screws to between 139.65 and 126.35 lbf.in (1.58 and 1.43 m.daN ) again.
(e) If the self-locking nut torque is more than 31 lbf.in (0.35 m.daN), replace the self-locking nut (Ref. AMM TASK 72-23-00-300-045).
Subtask 72-23-00-420-080-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL CAUTION:
MAKE SURE THAT THE PS12 INSTRUMENTATION NIPPLE WHICH COMES OUT OF THE FAN INLET CASE IS CORRECTLY ENGAGED IN THE PANEL.
CAUTION:
COATING SCREWS IS MANDATORY.
(1) Apply a layer of vaseline (Material No.CP5070) to the threads of all the screws that attach the acoustical panels and to the contact faces below the screw heads. (2) Do a visual inspection of the forward acoustical panel cup (Ref. AMM TASK 72-23-00-280-005)
(3) If panel cup is found pierced (Ref. AMM TASK 72-23-00-400-044).
(4) Install the panel assy on the forward case, and attach it with six screws (80).
CAUTION:
DO NOT EXCEED THE SPEED OF 200 RPM TO TORQUE ALL ACOUSTICAL PANEL SCREWS BY USING PNEUMATIC OR ELECTRICAL SCREW DRIVERS.
(5) Measure the self-locking nut torque of each nut when you start to tighten the screw. NOTE: Whenever possible, start the torque with the screws in the center of the acoustical panels.
NOTE: Make sure that the screws are not damaged, replace them if necessary.
