1.1. TROUBLESHOOTING
In order to determine condition and extent of damage to airplane structure elements, first
clean and inspect. Damage to the airplane may be caused by impact, wear, or parts
malfunctioning. Impact damage will vary with the force and location of impact and the type of
object causing the damage. During inspection of the damaged area note original damage is
often transferred from one element to another bringing about deformation or distortion. Non-
typical stress due to a strike or impact to a rib, frame or similar element may be transferred to the
ends of structural elements bringing about secondary damage such as sheared or stressed rivets,
elongated holes under bolts or corrugated skin. The attachment points should be carefully
inspected for signs of deformation and security of attachment in the region of the original and
secondary damage.
Wear can be attributed to normal usage and/or misalignment of movable surfaces. Parts
can be destroyed by chaffing, or may malfunction as a result of fatigue, corrosion, overstress,
or previously undetected damage. Damage not caused by impact must be evaluated and
corrected to prevent recurrence. This may require reinforcement of the structure or additional
actions; for example corrosion prevention measures. Increased inspections and periodic
maintenance may also be required. Each part in the damaged area must be inspected and the
amount of damage determined and classified.
Structural repairs described in this section are intended for use in conjunction with
general aircraft maintenance repair procedures.
NOTE
Line Level Maintenance repair is limited to minor repair of sheet metal cracks,
scratches, corrosion, and loose or missing hardware. These repairs can be
accomplished using the airframe repairer’s toolkit and portable hand tools. If any
extensive damage occurs or major repair is required, repairs shall be
accomplished by an Approved Maintenance (Repair) Organization or next higher
maintenance level as required by special repair procedure approved by
manufacturer or local Aviation Authority.
WARNING
Revision 6 1-1
M28
REPAIR MANUAL
After inspection, Each incidence of damage must be classified into one of 3 categories:
- negligible (slight);
- repairable;
- requiring replacement.
Division into these categories is designed to facilitate the mechanic’s ability to evaluate the
extent and critical values of the damage. Of course, common sense should be used when
classifying damage, as damage may be meet the criteria for more than one category:
1. Negligible damage is damage which will have little or no effect on the airworthiness
of the part or area, and may be ignored or corrected by a simple repair, such as: removal of
dents, (blending) evening-up of scratches, or stop-drilling cracks to non-structural elements and
removal of corrosion or touch-up of protective finish on parts.. Examples of such damage are:
slight dents without cracks, abrasions or sharp edges, or waviness due to stresses and without
infringement on other interior structure. Stop-drilling cracks is considered a temporary repair until
such time a more permanent repair can be affected.
NOTE
Damageto any of the following areas cannot be classified as Negligible:
- Damage to primary structure of the fuselage, box wings and vertical fin
and horizontal stabilator.
2. Reparable damage is such that the damage may have an effect on airworthiness ue
to loss of functionality of a given element, or on the general condition of the component part.
Damage may be corrected by installing a doubler, a patch or inserting a piece of material.
Examples of such damage are dents, scratches or punctures to the skin requiring
installation of doublers and damage to longerons and frames beyond the definition of a negligible
damage, and which have been deformed or twisted to a degree not requiring excessive
remoulding or restoring of the original shape.
Reparable cracks, scratches, nicks or gouges are stop-drilled using a 1/8-inch-diameter
drill and patched. Punctures, deep dents, and corroded areas of skin and webs are trimmed
out and patched. Smooth dents should be tapped out using a soft mallet and the area
reinforced with stiffening angles.
1-2 Revision 5
M28
REPAIR MANUAL
NOTE
Damage to a structural component shown in the Maintenance Manual
should be evaluated for possible repair or replacement at a higher level of
maintenance, but the repair or replacement procedure should be approved
by manufacturer or locally Aviation Authority. If negligible damage limits are
exceed.
Small doublers, splices, clips, brackets, and short stiffening members, damaged beyond
negligible limits, are usually replaced because repair of these members is impracticable.
Some highly stressed structural members cannot be repaired without reducing the established
margin of safety for the structure. Such members, when damaged beyond negligible limits,
must be replaced. Sometimes, where damaged members have a shape which is difficult to
repair, it may be better, in view of man-hours and cost, to replace the damaged member rather
than attempt a repair. Replacement members shall be made with the same type material (or
substitute) and temper as the original member and are installed using the same type fasteners
(or substitute).

NOTE
Others repairs of these trim tab are impracticable
1.2.1.3 Damage limitations for other elements of the secondary structure of the
airplane:
1. Cargo door.
A.1. Since the cargo door are not load carry-through structure, minor scratches and dents
of any length and thickness are acceptable on their surface, provided there are not
cuts (cracks) through. It is allowable not to make repairs of these minor scratches
and dents. However, if feasible, bring the dent surfaces, whenever possible, to the
proper door cover contour (dress and lute), and then refurbish the paint coating in
accordance with the M28 Airplane Repair Manual, Section I, Para. 5.
A.2. Inspect the Cargo door structure after removal of the cloth patches. After inspection,
bond the cloth covering the inspection openings using a market available
nitrocellulose adhesive providing the appropriate bond quality. Replacement patches
can be made from any type of aviation cloth, provided that proper bonding and
adherence are achieved (unsticking of the cloth is unacceptable). After bonding,
stretch the cloth applying a coat of Nitrocel (agent used for stretching the aviation
cloth).
NOTE
Type of cloth and adhesive is the same as for all cloth hole plugs
used on the airplane structure.

REPAIR MANUAL
Before repair, position the aircraft in a convenient place so that it can remain
undisturbed for the duration of the repair. If however, the necessity arises to relocate the
aircraft,, the airplane is to be lifted using jacks and leveled.
NOTE
The use of US hardware for repair in secondary structure is allowable,
provided it is used in acc. to US standards (ex. industry or AC43.13) , for
providing sufficient strength, dimensions and type of protective coating. Holes
may be oversized to allow installation of nearest comparable hardware.
In order to prepare the area to be repaired, check and classify the nature of damage.
The thorough inspection shall be performed prior to repair. In some cases the damaged part can
be first classified as being subject to replacement; however a more accurate analysis after its
removal from the aircraft may indicate that the affected part can be repaired.
NOTE
After a thorough investigation of damage, a course of action should be
taken to restore damaged area to its original condition. Clean out
damaged area first. Take care to prevent further damage during this
operation. The following procedure for cleaning out a damaged area
applies to all types of damage except where noted for specific
construction..
1. Restore all dented skin and supporting structure to its original shape and condition
wherever possible.
2. Cut away all jagged edges and severely distorted material, removing enough material
to eliminate any radiating cracks. When cutting out the affected section, trim the edges
parallel or perpendicular to the edge of the specific part.
3. Leave as much radius as possible in corners of cutouts. Smooth out all edges.
5. Smooth scratches and dents If nicks or abrasions are greater than negligible
limitations, they should be treated as cracks and prepared for patching.
6. Do not leave isolated cracks unattended even though area is considered non-
stressed. Stop-drill crack using a 1/8-inch diameter drill.
7. To recondition the original paint and anti-corrosion protection coating, paint the affected
area.
NOTE
If the damage is adjacent to previously repaired section, cut out this
section and repair it anew together with the neighboring affected area.
Revision 10 1-7

REPAIR MANUAL
Drain fuel from fuel tanks before proceeding to any preservation work in the region of
fuel tanks.
NOTE
While conducting servicing work associated with the fuel system, fire
protection equipment must be available nearby.
Prior to the preservation of the fuel system, the aircraft must be
grounded.
Avoid evaporation of fuel left in the disconnected fuel lines. Such an
accumulation of fuel vapors might cause hazard of explosion.
Make sure that the master switch is OFF while the work is done in the
fuel system, unless otherwise specified.
1. Empty the fuel tanks with the power supply system ON in the following way:
- place the fuel drip pan or container,
- ground the aircraft and container.
a) centerwing tanks:
- connect the fuel drain line to the drain valves (one after another) in the
lower wing skin and drain fuel;
- connect the fuel drain line to the fuel filter drain valve in the engine nacelle;
- turn ON the electric fuel pump and drain fuel through the fuel filter drain
valve;
- turn OFF the pump, close the valves and disconnect the fuel drain line.
2. Before repair, dry the tank with inert gas (argon or carbon dioxide) to prevent from
possible explosion:
- open the fuel filler and insert the inert gas supply line into the tank;
- release gas into the tank for aminimum of ten minutes to remove all the fuel
vapors. Argon and carbon dioxide are heavier than air, so they remain in the tank
for the time of repair.
NOTE
The use of fuel cell blowers in an approved alternate method.
3. After completing the servicing work, clean the repaired area thoroughly with clean cloth
moistened in acetone or similar solvent. Bear in mind to pour the solvent onto the cloth
so as not to contaminate it. It is not allowed to use dirty solvent. Prevent the solvent
from dripping from the cloth.

During the course of the work with leak stoppers and adhesives, safety and fire protection
precautions should be strictly observed.
- Position hydraulic jacks under the airplane jack (support) points and, if the centerwing
tank lids are to be removed, position additionally adjustable stop chocks under the engine mount
frames.
- Remove the tank lids in the centerwing or outboard wing upper section, as required.
- Dry and clean thoroughly the fuel tank interior, and remove old leak stopper from the
leaking area.
- Carefully clean the area subject to sealing; use a vacuum cleaner, a bristle brush and
a piece of rag.
- De-grease the surface being sealed using solvent HN-Cleaner SPB or substitute, and
then acetone. Use cotton-cloth rag (lint-free).
NOTE
After the surface has been cleaned and de-greased, DO NOT touch the
area with your hands.
NOTE
Only U30MES-5 or PR-1782 leak stoppe rmay be used to repair internal
surfaces of the fuel tanks . Do not use another leak stopper for this
purpose.
It is allowable to use another PR leak stopper but only to seal the cover
connection with the wing structure.

- Apply a uniform layer of the leak-stopper upon the prepared surface; use a short-
bristle paint brush.
- With the leak-stopper hardened, carefully clean the fuel tank's interior.
- Install the tank lids on the wing upper surface; check for proper attachment
(connection torque-tightening) and for condition of the lid seals.
- Visually Inspect the fuel tank for leak-stopping coverage. Apply a coat of chalk
compound on the carefully-cleaned exterior surfaces of the wing bottom in the region being
sealed. Fill the tank in accordance with the manual. After 30 minutes visually inspect for leaks. No
leaks are allowable.

The control surfaces must be balanced after every repair or painting. The balancing should be
performed in a location free from violent air movements.
For ailerons balancing the 010.559.032699 fixture should be used, and for the elevator and
rudder balancing the work stands must be provided as shown on the sketches. The elevators,
rudders and ailerons must deflect smoothly.
A. AILERONS BALANCE
2. Install the aileron in the rig in inverted position, i.e. bottom side up (reverse to that on
the airplane). Care must be exercised to properly set the rig's hangers so as to ensure aileron
span wise horizontal position of the aileron.
3. Position a weight of 290 G (0.639 lbs) at the aileron rear edge, along the aileron
counterweight (balancer) axis. If properly balanced, the aileron should assume a horizontal
position, with the trailing edge of the properly balanced aileron at the same level as a
corresponding indicator mark on the rig tool. If found otherwise, balance the aileron in accordance
to the procedure set forth in para. 4.
- remove the rudder plug from the counterweight's back and remove the old leak
stopper;
- with the weight of 290 G (0.639 lbs) positioned at the rear edge of the aileron,
change the counterweight's mass until the aileron assumes horizontal position,
that is until the trailing edge aligns with the appropriate indicator mark on the rig
tool. Change the counterweight mass by drilling or filling with lead;
- remove the weight of 40 G (0.088 lbs) from the aileron rear edge; the aileron
should pitch forward nose down;
- check the drain hole at the counterweight's bottom for free clearance;
- install the rubber plug upon a film of leak stopper (PR 1442, PR 1431 or PR 1828)
on the counterweight. Also, form a ridge of leak stopper outside, around the plug's
perimeter.

4.1. GENERAL
Surface corrosion is formed in places where the protective coating is damaged. Signs
of corrosion are the presence of white or grey corrosion powder, or sometimes jelly-like
substance of the same colors.
The corrosion mentioned above manifests itself directly on the surfaces of the parts or
after having detected the corrosion centers under damaged lacquer coating or under the sealing
compound, or under bulged or separated layers on glue joints (particularly in the under-floor
space).
2. Parts made of magnesium alloys are least resistant to corrosion. Magnesium alloy
corrosion is manifested by coming out of the lacquer coating and formation of damp salt tarnish of
whitish color. Steel corrosion is manifested by formation of brown-red tarnish (rust) on the parts
surfaces.
3. To prevent corrosion of airplane parts, the preservation principles given below should
be strictly observed and simultaneously the protective coating damage removed.
- do not walk on the fuselage and wing skin, if necessary, put on special soft shoes,
or lay soft canvas mats which should be cleaned from dust, dirt, or snow before
beginning the work,
NOTE
The mats should not be stripped from the airplane surfaces, they should
be rolled and carefully removed.
- do not put tools, apparatuses, equipment or rags saturated with oil, kerosene, or
solvents on the skin,
- take care not to allow objects which could cause damage to fall on the fuselage
and wing skin,
- when washing the airplane, do not allow water to get inside. Remove the causes of
water penetration, wipe the parts with a piece of cloth, remove water from difficult-
to-access regions with a pump,
- do not remove mud, snow, or ice with scrapers or by other mechanical methods,
Revision 10 1-69

- ventilate the cabin and interior fuselage space, in winter it is necessary to blow the
interior with dry warm air,
- if possible do not put on covers, apart from windshield covers, especially in winter
and autumn.
WARNING
When installing covers over the windshields allow 5-10 centimeters (2-4 in) air space
between the covers and the airframe surface using special rubber washers or other waterproof
non-metallic materials and make sure the covers are pulled tight and will not strike against the
skin in case of windy weather.
4. When examining parts for corrosion, a 4-6x magnifying glasses and a non-metalic
scraper should be used. When inspecting dark places use a portable lamp. If there is doubt when
examining the parts for corrosion (in the case of surface corrosion) use the eddy current
inspection method with a flaw detector. It is allowed to use the eddy current inspection method
when the thickness of the lacquer coating is not more than 100 µm.
5. When corrosion is detected, the corroded parts should be prepared for corrosion
removal. Local corrosion to be cleaned to metal - coming out and cracked sealing compound,
lacquer coating, cracked spots and peeling of adhesive (in under-floor fuselage space). If
corrosion is found in the form of gaps in glued fuselage panel connections, the connection should
be unriveted. If corrosion is found on connection fittings-remove the connecting elements (drill out
the rivets, replace the bolts and nuts).
6. When the depth of corrosion does not exceed the value specified in the maintenance
procedures of the applicable section, remove the corrosion and refurbish the lacquer coating.
8. After removal of corrosion, visually evaluate the quality of the surface cleaning in the
region of the corrosion centers with a magnifying glass, and if necessary, use the eddy current
inspection method flaw detector. If the corrosion has not been wholly removed, re-clean the area
to a depth of not more than 0.05 mm (0.02 in). After having removed the corrosion completely,
measure its depth and the remaining metal thickness of the particular part using a mechanical
depth gauge or ultrasonic depth gauge.

2. Clean corroded area and adjacent region with abrasive paper (region at the
distance of 5 - 10 mm (0.2-0.4 in) from the center of corrosion).
3. Remove the cleaning residues with pieces of cloth wetted in petrol with an addition
of anti-electrostatic agent. Wipe with a clean cloth and dry for 20-30 minutes.
NOTE
The areas of the fuselage floor panels to be dried for 1.5 - 2 hours at the
temperature of 70-80°C (158-176°F).
1. Remove corrosion from the whole depth and width of its occurrence. Use caution.
Remove layer by layer paying attention not to damage the parts or remove layers of metal not
attacked by corrosion.
2. Clean the corrosion center area with a (coarse) file until all corrosion has been
visibly removed, then clean the area with abrasive paper over the region at the distance of 5-10
mm (0.2-0.4 in) from the corrosion center. The transition between the cleaned surface and the
non-corroded surface should be smooth.
3. Remove cleaning residues, in accordance with it. A(3), and evaluate the quality of
the corrosion removal.
2. Clean the detected corrosion areas with abrasive paper 5 or 6 until a glossy
uniform surface is obtained. The transitions between the cleaned surface and the non-corroded
surface should be smooth.
3. Remove cleaning residues in accordance with item A(3), and check the quality of

NOTES
1. All work involving painting should be carried out at the temperature
of +15°C (59°F) through +35°C (95°F) and relative humidity of 35 -
80%. Before applying the lacquer coating check to ensure there is
no corrosion on the affected surface. If corrosion is detected,
proceed per par. 4.
2. The maximum thickness of paint coating is 150 μm except for the
areas with difficult access, color transitions, rivet surfaces, struts,
area over the cockpit, stub wings (areas where additional
protection against erosion is applied), fuel tank panel surfaces and
areas with insignia, marks and decorative symbols painted on.
1. Wash the surface to be painted with a water solution of a preparation for airframe
washing removing dust, contamination, grease and exhaust gases traces. Rinse in running
water up to preparation complete removal. Wipe and dry.
3. Pre-degrease by wiping with white cotton cloth or Kimvipe wiper saturated with
recommended degreaser.
NOTE
It is admissible to apply the extraction naphtha.
Wipe surfaces dry with a second clean cloth – prior to evaporation of the solvent.
Degrease difficult to access areas, edges of connecting skin, riveted joints, bolt heads, and
nuts with bristle brush. Degrease in one direction only. Do not dip the cloth or brush in a
vessel. Apply the solvent by pouring from a small vessel. Replace cloths and wipers often with
new. Repeat this action until surfaces are clean. Let surfaces stand for 30 minutes too allow
evaporation of solvents .
NOTE
Due to the hazard of static electricity, perform work with clean and
balanced movements. Operators must use cotton cloth only and
head-gear. Perform work away from sources of open flame sources
and in places permeable to air. Avoid superposition and weeping of
cleaner on glazing.

Scope
This Section contains general data which may be useful when troubleshooting
wiring problems and minor repair to wiring terminations, and connections. This Section
does not define detailed procedures used for troubleshooting, or prescribe standard
procedures used for repairs of electrical systems such as: cutting of wires, soldering,
making harnesses, protecting, attaching, etc. This Section gives general information which
may be used when performing these procedures.
WARNINGS
7.1. Wires
All aircraft electrical wiring are identified by the identification code composed of:
circuit number designation, wire segment letter designation (R for radio and navigation
circuits) and wire number. The identification code is made by a series of letters and
numbers.
Figure 1A and 1B shows an example of a wire identification (identification code).
The wire identification code is applied directly on the wire insulation or the identification
sleeve. On shielded wires without outer insulation and on coaxial cables the identification
is applied on identification sleeves only.
Revision 10 1-87
M28
REPAIR MANUAL
NOTE
Wire segment is understood as a wire (or a few wires) of the same
potential.
Every electrical circuit in aircraft is provided with own specific number. The circuit
number designation identifies the circuit function. Table 1 shows circuit numbers
and their corresponding main functions.

2. FASTENING
2.1. RIVETS
During the course of the repair the rivets are used to:
To rivet using the existing (old) holes in the structural elements use rivets identical to the ones
which were removed, if the diameter of the hole under the rivet does not exceed 0.2 mm (0.008 in)
nominal diameter of ordinary rivets and 0.15 mm (0.006 in) for the rivets with compensators.
Otherwise use rivets one size larger.
The types, names, designation, material and marking of rivets are specified in table 2-1.
If the holes are battered having removed the old rivets, install rivets one size larger in the
quantity up to 10% in the seam, provided the larger diameter rivets are installed not more frequency
than one every three rivets.

2.2. BOLTED JOINTS
(1) It is forbidden to install bolts, nuts and washers with mechanical damage or signs of
corrosion.
(2) Before the installation clean the bolts, nuts and washers from contamination. If the bolts,
nuts and washers have been preserved remove the preserving grease.
(3) Before installing cover the bolt and hole surfaces with a protective lubricant, primer or
sealing compound coating according to the installation location of the bolt.
(4) The nuts not required the use of a torque wrench to be tightened manually with hand
until stop, using a standard open-ended spanner or socket wrench.
(6) The size of the threaded bolt part extending outside the nut should meet the following
conditions:
- the protrusion of the bolt end outside the nuts secured with cotter pins may be zero,
- the protection above the nut of the threaded bolt part with a lead cone should not be
less than the height of the cone,
- for a bolt with a shortened threaded part in connection with an ordinary thin nut the
protrusion of the threaded bolt part above the nut should not be less than one half of
the thread pitch,
- in other cases the protrusion of the threaded bolt part above the nut should not be
less than the pitch of the thread.
(7) When installing bolts requiring the use of a torque wrench for tightening, the below
procedure should be followed:
- select a nut for the given bolt and screw it on the threaded bolt part 2-3 turns (self-
locking nuts - only until the crimped part of the nut),
- lubricate the smooth part and thread of the bolt as well as the surface of the washer
adjacent to the nut with a thin layer of the AMS-3 grease (and for un-dismountable
bolts - with a thin layer of a primer or sealing compound), then wipe the bolt thread
with a piece of clean cloth to remove excessive lubricant.
NOTE
When installing bolts on primer or sealing compound screw on and tighten
the nuts with a wrench before the primer has dried or the sealing
compound has hardened.
- screw on the nut over the bolt with an open ended spanner and tighten it over the
protruding bolt part until stop,
- screw home the nut with a torque wrench to the torque moment value specified for the
given connection.
NOTE
It is forbidden to remove the clearance by increasing the torque moment
value specified for the given connection.

When protecting screws and nuts with protecting washers (Fig. II-1) the following
conditions should be satisfied:
- protecting washer wings should be bent on the edge of the nut (screw) in position
of the washer turned in the unscrewing direction up to resistance of nose in the
socket of the part or a grip to the front of the part;
- bent washer grip should be strictly connected with the part. A clearance between
the washer and the part is admitted duly in the place of washer grip bending;
- putting washers on the collar and bending washer grips or their leaning against
the edge front should prevent washers from turning in the direction of unscrewing.
When protecting the washer grip bending, the protruding of the grip in relation to
the protecting collar front is not admitted;
- fitting washer wings in with nut (screw) walls should be carried out by tightening-
up the nut (screw) by an angle of no more than 30°, or exchanging the nut
(screw). Fitting by turning off the nut is not admitted.
- bending washer wings may be done to one or to two walls of a nut (screw).
Bending reinforced wings to the wall carry out with this part of the bent wing
which ensures the biggest contact surface with the screw (nut) wall;
In place of difficult access, washer wings bending may be carried out by means of
special holders or punches of copper or aluminium alloys.
