(5) Under some operating conditions, overrunning clutch splines may need to be regreased more often than at
the 100hour intervals and bearings may need to be regreased more often than at the 300hour intervals.
With no cargo hook attached, inspect and regrease splines every 100 hours and bearing every 300 hours
(Ref. Sec. 631000, Installation of Overrunning Clutch Subassembly and CSPCOM5, Ball Bearing
Inspection and Grease Repack).
With cargo hook attached, inspect sprag assembly, inner race and outer race every 300 hours or 300 hours
of actual hook time when logged separately as per FAR 91.417, regrease clutch splines every 100 hours
and bearing every 300 hours (Ref. Sec. 631000, Installation of Overrunning Clutch Subassembly and

(6) When inspected per Landing Gear Damper Inspection (Ref. Sec. 321000 for 369D/E/FF 500N, or Sec.
321060 for 600N).
(7) Use only main rotor hubs overhauled by MDHI or approved MDHI Licensees.
(8) Refer to data plate to determine start/generator manufacturer.
(9) The shelf life of bearings preserved with grease is limited to 4 years.
(10) Regrease overrunning clutch bearings every 300 hours (Ref. CSPCOM5, Sec. 631015).
(11) Interim hours: life extension testing in progress.
(12) The 369D25100 main rotor transmission overhaul time may be extended from a mandatory 3000 hour
