A. Locking of Acoustical Panels
(a) Remove the bolt.
(b) Clean all damaged cupsSPM 702111 .
(c) Fill all damaged cups with RTV 732 (Material No.CP2242) or RTV 102 (Material No.CP2266) or RTV 730 (Material No.CP2431)
(3) Re-install the acoustical panels and screws.
(b) 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):
.
(d) If the self-locking nut torque is more than 31 lbf.in (0.35 m.daN), but less than 49 lbf.in (0.55 m.daN), TORQUE screws at the running torque value and add 44 lbf.in (0.50 m.daN).
(e) If the self-locking nut torque is more than 49 lbf.in (0.55 m.daN):
5. Close-upCAUTION:
COATING SCREWS IS MANDATORY.
(1) If panel cup(s) found pierced, do the procedure that follows: (a) Remove the bolt.
(b) Clean all damaged cups
(c) Fill all damaged cups with RTV 732 (Material No.CP2242) or RTV 102 (Material No.CP2266) or RTV 730 (Material No.CP2431)
NOTE: You must install the screw, with only a light layer of vaseline (Material No.CP5070) , a short time after you apply the RTV (before polymerisation).
(2) Apply a layer of vaseline (Material No.CP5070) to the threads of screws that attach the acoustical panels. (3) Re-install the acoustical panels and screws.
CAUTION:
DO NOT EXCEED THE SPEED OF 200 RPM TO APPROACH ALL ACOUSTICAL PANEL SCREWS BY USING PNEUMATIC OR ELECTRICAL SCREW DRIVERS.
(4) Measure the self-locking nut torque of each nut when you start to tighten the screw. NOTE: Make sure that the screws are not damaged, replace them if necessary.
(a) If the self-locking nut torque is less than 4.5 lbf.in (0.05 m.daN), (Ref. AMM TASK 72-23-00-400-043). (b) 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):
- TORQUE the screws of forward and middle panels to between 139.65 and 126.35 lbf.in (1.58 and 1.43 m.daN )
, - TORQUE screws of the aft panels aft to between 111.3 and 100.7 lbf.in (1.26 and 1.14 m.daN )
.
. (d) If the self-locking nut torque is more than 31 lbf.in (0.35 m.daN), but less than 49 lbf.in (0.55 m.daN), TORQUE screws at the running torque value and add 44 lbf.in (0.50 m.daN).
(e) If the self-locking nut torque is more than 49 lbf.in (0.55 m.daN):
- Replace the self-locking nut of the fwd panels (Ref. AMM TASK 72-23-00-300-045).
- Remove the engine (Ref. AMM TASK 71-00-00-000-042) and do the engine shop repair procedure
ESM 722302300008 to replace the self-locking of the mid and aft panels.
