PROPELLER AUTO FEATHERING OPERATIONAL CHECK (UB / UC)
NOTE: The following check procedure should be performed prior to
beginning the troubleshooting process; this should more clearly
define the exact nature of the complaint. This procedure is the only
procedure recommended for evaluating the switching level of the
torque pressure switches and evaluating adjustment of the auto
feather power lever switches.
1. Both Engines Condition Levers LOW IDLE
2. Power Levers IDLE

NOTE: The first half of this procedure evaluates the torque pressure
switches.

3. Auto feather Control Switch TEST

NOTE: Any indication that the pressure switches have not reacted in the
predicted manner will necessitate replacing the affected pressure
switch. As the propeller blades rotate toward feather, the engines
torque will increase above the low-pressure switch setting and result
in system cycling.

7. Repeat with RH engine.

NOTE: The balance of this check evaluates power lever switch adjustment.

8. Auto feather Control Switch ARM

GROUND PERFORMANCE CHECK

NOTE: When performing the Ground Performance Check procedure, it

should be noted that normally, at least two of the performance
parameters would be outside the expected limits if the engine were
at fault. If only one engine performance parameter is suspected, it
can be assumed that a problem in the indicating system for that
parameter is present and a check of that indicating system must be
performed.

1. Install P and W max N1 shim tools on the FCU stop tab ensuring the
LH side of toll is flush with LH side of stop tab.

NOTE: It the max shim tool is not available, max N1 will have to be verified
during the test flight.

2. Verify that the feather valve plungers on the propeller governors are
fully compressed when the propeller controls are in the FEATHER
position.
3. Verity that the fuel cut-off is functioning properly.

Fuel Cut-off Procedure

a. Disconnect the engine fuel line at the fuel flow divider.

b. Place a container under the fuel line to catch any fuel that may
be pumped out of the line during the check.
c. Motor the engine by placing the start control switch in the
STARTER ONLY position.
d. Move the condition lever forward and confirm that fuel flow is
present.
e. Place the condition lever in FUEL CUTOFF and confirm that
fuel flow has stopped.
f. Reconnect the fuel line to the fuel flow divider.
4. Start the engines and allow the oil temperature to increase well into the
operating range.
5. Check the dead band position. N1 should remain constant between the idle
and ground fine detents; however, N1 should rise as the power levers are
moved forward from IDLE and when moved aft from GROUND FINE.
6. Idle speed should be 58-61% (UA/B/C) 67-69% (UE) if not, discontinue this
procedure and go to the LOW IDLE ADJUSTMENT procedure.

C-14

FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY Rev 1

BEECH 1900 Maintenance Checklist ATTC 057
Low Idle Adjustment

a. Loosen the fuel control unit lever clamping screw. Do not

confuse the nut in the centre of the fuel control unit with the
clamping screw.
b. Loosen one of the two idle adjustment screws the amount you
wish to change the idle adjustment and tighten the other. One
flat on the Allen head screw will change the idle 4%. Loosen
the top screw to adjust idle up or loosen the bottom screw to
adjust idle down.
c. Tighten the fuel control unit lever clamping screw and safety
wire the clamping screw and the idle adjustment screws.
d. Any time low idle adjustments are changed, the maximum
forward and reverse N1 schedule will shift up or down with the
idle speed and must be set again.
7. With the power levers in the idle detent, place the propeller levers in
high rpm and the condition levers in high idle. Place the propeller test
switch in the low pitch position (solenoid OFF). Advance the power
levers to 1500 rpm N2. Record the engine 1500 rpm torque.
8. 1500 rpm torque should correspond to the value obtained from the
appropriate torque graph ±50 ft-lbs and torque readings between
engines should agree within 20 ft-lbs. (Refer to the ENGINE TORQUE
ADJUSTMENT if values are beyond limits.)

Engine Torque Adjustment

a. Shorten the beta cable to lower idle torque by adjusting the beta
cable end at the cambox. Idle torque can be increased by
lengthening the beta cable. Should insufficient threads remain
in the clevis of the beta cable to allow lengthening of the cable,
the adjustment should be made at the forward end of the cable.
b. Tighten and safety jam nuts.
9. Place the propeller test switch OFF (Solenoid ON) and record the 1500
rpm torque.
10. This 1500 rpm torque should correspond to the values (+0,-150) on the
appropriate torque graph.

NOTE: In the event the torque is out of tolerance, check for binding at the
beta cable and solenoid mechanism, then adjust the solenoid aft in
the bracket to lower torque or forward to increase torque. If adjusting
the solenoid does not result in an acceptable torque reading, refer to
the propeller manual for adjusting the propeller low pitch stops.

11. With the power levers in the idle detent, advance the condition levers
to the HI IDLE position; this should yield an N1 of 69-71% (UB / UC),
70-72% (UE), if not, discontinue this procedure and adjust the high idle
speed.
C-15

FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY Rev 1

BEECH 1900 Maintenance Checklist ATTC 057
High Idle Adjustment

There are two possible procedures for adjusting the high idle speed of the
engine. The first procedure should always be the procedure of choice unless
the condition levers are split, not properly aligned together; then the second
procedure would be the procedure of choice.

High Idle Adjustment (Condition Levers Not Split)

a. Locate the high idle roller assembly on the main input shaft of
the fuel control unit.
b. Adjusting the roller out will increase high idle speed 1.5% per
one complete turn of the adjusting nuts. Adjusting the roller in
will decrease high idle speed 1.5% per one complete turn of the
adjusting nuts.

CAUTION: Do not set the roller so far out that the dead band stop screw is not
riding against the dead band stop. Should this happen, reset the
high idle stop screw to allow more rotation of the condition lever
shaft, and then readjust the high idle roller.

High Idle Adjustment (Condition Levers Split)

a. Locate the high idle stop adjustment screw.

b. Turning the screw IN will increase the high idle 1.6% for each
flat of the screw head. Turning the screw OUT will decrease
the high idle speed 1.6% for each flat of the screw.
c. Safety wire the stop screw after making this adjustment.
12. Check for power lever mismatch by moving the power levers forward
and aft while observing the N1 responses; should a mismatch exist,
refer to POWER LEVER ALIGNMENT in the Maintenance Manual.
13. Advance the power levers to the maximum forward position. Record
the N1 readings.
14. Retard the power levers and move the levers into the full reverse
range. Record the N1 readings.
15. Maximum forward and reverse N1 can be adjusted if no power lever
mismatch exists. Maximum forward N is 95% with the max N1 shim
tool in place; max reverse N1 is 88%.
16. Advance the power levers until maximum propeller rpm is reached.
Propeller rpm should advance to 1700 rpm if the propeller governor is
properly adjusted; otherwise refer to the PROPELLER GOVERNOR
ADJUSTMENT in the Maintenance Manual.
17. Shut down the engines and remove the max N1 shim tools.
18. Check that all cotter pins and safety wiring is correctly installed and
that all clevis end nuts are properly tightened and safetied.
19. Perform the Engine Operating Parameters Check.

BEECH 1900 Maintenance Checklist ATTC 057
ENGINE OPERATING PARAMETERS CHECK
NOTE: Engine parameters check data may be used by maintenance
personnel to evaluate the effects of component replacement,
inaccuracies in the engine instruments or progressive hot section
deterioration; but such data should never be used as the sole criteria
for determining the airworthiness of an engine. Refer to the
MINIMUM TAKEOFF POWER chart and procedures in the
Appropriate POH to determine if the engines are producing sufficient
power for airworthy operation.

NOTE: The graphs for engine operating parameters checks are presented
as torque versus ambient temperature and pressure so that engine
parameters can be checked over a wide range of conditions without
over torque the reduction gearbox. Periodic engine checks must be
carried out and changes in engine parameters noted.

NOTE: All forms of engine deterioration will be accompanied by an increase

in ITT and fuel flow at a given power. Compressor deterioration will
in most cases, be due to dirt deposits and will affect an increase in
N1 speed to obtain a given power setting. This form of deterioration
can be remedied by compressor washing. Hot section deterioration
will cause a decrease in the N1 for a given power setting.

1. Determine the barometric pressure. This pressure may be obtained by

setting the altimeter to ZERO and reading the pressure from the
Kollsman window or by contacting the local flight service for an
uncorrected pressure reading. (Do not use the corrected sea level
pressure that is normally supplied by the tower.)
2. Record the outside air temperature in degrees Celsius.
3. Obtain the torque reading from Graph 1 of the appropriate Operating
Parameter Check Graph by plotting temperature against field
barometric pressure.
4. Start the engines and allow the oil temperature to increase to operating
temperature.
5. Position the airplane crosswind: 90 degrees to the wind direction to
eliminate variation in parameters due to changing wind velocity.
(Check downwind engine)
6. Turn off the generator, bleed air, and air conditioning on the engine to
be checked
7. Check that the propeller levers are in high rpm.
8. Advance the power lever to equal the previously established target
torque.
9. Check that engine propeller rpm is at 1700 rpm.

C-17
FOR TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY Rev 1
BEECH 1900 Maintenance Checklist ATTC 057
ENGINE OPERATING PARAMETERS CHECK - Continued

10. Record N1, ITT, and Fuel Flow of the engine being checked. Reset
generator and bleed air, then repeat item 5 through 10 for opposite
engine.
11. Shut down the engines.
12. Determine the reference fuel flow from Graph 2 of the appropriate
Operating Parameter Check Graph by plotting the field barometric
pressure against the outside air temperature.
13. Determine the reference N1 speed from Graph 3 based on outside air
temperature.
14. Find the reference ITT value by plotting the outside air temperature to
the ITT curve.

NOTE: The graphs are based on a typical new installation. Minor

differences between engines and installations may produce results
that are slightly different from the reference values represented by
the graphs; therefore, should the engine meet the minimum take-off
power criteria as stated in the POH, large variations of fuel flow and
ITT from the graph references values may be indicative of faults
within the engine’s indicating systems. Should an engine parameter
begin to drift progressively up or down during subsequent checks, a
trend toward engine deterioration may be assumed. A minimum
take-off power check should be performed before the engine is
declared no airworthy. The real value of the graphs is to give the
technician an approximation of where the engine parameters should
be for a typical new installation.

NOTE: Detailed record keeping of engine performance parameters is

important in detecting trends. Maintenance personnel should employ
a good system of engine condition trend monitoring so that
preventative maintenance measures may be accomplished in
advance of conditions that are more serious.
