NOTE For helicopters 30066, 30166, 30188 and 30297, do the alignment of the power plant in accordance with TB 205B-03-24.
f. Major repair or replacement of the components in the center fuselage or pylon support
structure.
g. Driveshaft misalignment is suspected for any reason.
2 Remove the main driveshaft assembly, leaving the engine output shaft adapter installed.
a. Release the fasteners attaching the lower access doors to the pylon support and remove the
doors. Remove the screws attaching the upper access doors to the pylon support and remove
the doors.
b. Use the maintenance hoist to raise the pylon to the position where the lower bolt of the lift
link can be moved freely with the nut and washer removed (Figure 71-4). Replace the bolt if
binding occurs due to corrosion or galling. Check the upper bolt with the nut and washer
removed. Replace the bolt if binding occurs due to corrosion or galling. Apply grease (C-001)
to the bore and O.D. of bushing.
d. With the maintenance hoist detached, and the nut and washer removed from the lower bolt
of the lift link, adjust the jacks to raise the transmission until the bolt can be freely moved
with fingers
e. Determine that the transmission support points are symmetrically parallel with the pylon
support structure by measuring at each mount with a micrometer depth gauge (Figure 71-4).
f. Use the micrometer depth gauge to measure from the top surface of the support case
mounting plates to the top of the pylon support. This measurement is to be taken at each of the
four mounts.
NOTE Disregard step g if the assembly uses case 212-040-054, which has integral fifth
mount.
g. Subtract the thickness of the support beam from the measurements obtained at the two aft
mounts. This action will allow for thickness of the fifth mount support beam channel, which
covers the mounting plates at these two points. All four measurements should now be equal
within 0.020 inch
NOTE The lower thickness of the fifth mount support beam channel need not be considered,
since it has been compensated for by a difference in the filler plates.
h. When all four points cannot be adjusted to the same dimension, take the average of the two
front points and adjust the two rear points accordingly.
i. Upon completion of the transmission pylon positioning, recheck the lower and upper bolt of
the lift link to make sure that it can be freely moved with the fingers.
4 Install the target plate of the engine to transmission driveshaft alignment tool set (T101419)
on the transmission input quill coupling (Figure 71-5).
5 Set the target plate with the arrow of the center disc indexed at 8.0 on the inner scale, and
secure by tightening the two washer-head screws at the back of the plate. Position the plate or
the coupling with the 35.6 index of the outer scale at the top of the vertical center line. Secure
with the coupling clamp set.
6 Install alignment gage of tool set on the engine output shaft adapter, and secure with coupling
clamp set.
7 Check horizontal and vertical alignment by inserting a suitable tool through access holes in
the alignment gage housing and pushing the plunger forward, against the retracting spring
tension, toward the target plate hole.
NOTE: To indicate correct alignment, largest diameter of plunger must enter hole in target
plate. If misalignment is indicated, observe and note amount and direction of such
misalignment.
No correction of misalignment should be attempted before completion of angularity check
outlined in step 8. Shim requirements can be best determined on the basis of both checks.
8 Perform angularity check as follows:
a. Mount a dial indicator on the forward end of the alignment gage plunger as shown in figure
71-5.
b. Remove the aft section of firewall web and enlarge the sixteen holes, by drilling, to 5/16
inch.
c. Deburr the drilled holes. Reassemble the firewall assembly using AN970-3 washers over
the enlarged holes and under the 16 screw heads.
13 Loosen screws around intake bellmouth in forward firewall, and around attaching ring in rear
firewall, to allow engine to shift as necessary during alignment.
14 Repeat alignment and angularity check after any change of shims.
15 When alignment is correct, removeT101419 tool set and T101440 jacks. Retighten screws in
firewalls as necessary.
16 Install nut, washer, and cotter pin on lower bolt in lift link. Install access doors on pylon
island. (Refer to Chapter 66.)
17 Install main driveshaft. (Refer to Chapter 66.)
18 Check fuel control and governor linkage for proper rigging and cushion.
