WARNING: AT TAKEOFF POWER, THE EXHAUST STREAM MAY PICK UP AND THROW
LOOSE DIRT, GRAVEL AND OTHER DEBRIS OVER A CONSIDERABLE
DISTANCE. PRECAUTIONS MUST BE TAKEN DURING ENGINE RUNNING TO
AVOID INJURY TO PERSONNEL AND DAMAGE TO PROPERTY.
OCCASIONALLY, DURING POWER SECTION STARTING, EXCESS FUEL
ACCUMULATES IN EXHAUST DUCT WHICH WHEN IGNITED CAUSES LONG
FLAMES TO BE EMITTED FROM THE EXHAUST. PERSONNEL MUST ENSURE
THAT THE RUN UP AREA IS CLEAR OF INFLAMMABLE MATERIALS AND
GROUND EQUIPMENT.

D. Environmental Conditions
(1) Ambient Conditions
As temperature drops, water becomes less soluble in fuel, with the result that water and
fuel separate, and water seeks the lowest point in the fuel system or accessory. If
temperature drops sufficiently, water freezes in the fuel and forms tiny needle-shaped
crystals which may impinge on strainers and restrict fuel flow. In extreme cases fuel flow
may be blocked entirely. This condition is evidenced by a drop in fuel pressure to the power
section. The remedy for this condition is to apply heat to affected components.
In cold weather, it is most important that all fuel pumps and strainers be thoroughly
inspected prior to flight. As long a fuel flows freely from drains in tank and strainers, it can
be assumed that the system is free of ice. Any indication of restricted flow is cause for heat
application. Collect all drainage in a clear container, and inspect for water globules in the
fuel.
A similar condition may exist in lubrication systems, with water coming from condensation
in oil tanks or power section casings.
(3) Precipitation
Performance checks and engine adjustments should not be attempted in moderate to heavy
precipitation. Water, snow or ice entering engine inlets causes changes in power output
proportional to the amount entering the affected power section. Power output changes are
minor, but not insignificant. Freezing rain and slushy snow have the same effect on power
output, and may cling to inlet ducts and screens and upset air flow to the affected power
section.
E. Fuel
It is recommended that testing be carried out with the same fuel as is used in service (Ref.
SB5144).
F. Instruments
Testing procedures described depend, for their effectiveness, on the accuracy of cockpit
instrumentation. Instruments should be calibrated frequently to ensure continued accuracy
within the following limits:

G. Pre-start Checks
(1) Inspect air inlets thoroughly, and ensure that they are clear of loose nuts, bolts, tools
and other objects which might cause damage and subsequent failure.
(2) Inspect area in vicinity of air inlets and exhaust, and remove any loose objects which
might possibly be ingested or blown rearward by exhaust gases.
(3) Check for evidence of oil leaking into air
intakes.
(4) Check each power section fuel system for presence of
water.
(5) Check engine controls for full travel, freedom of movement and correctness of
direction.
(6) Check oil level in each power section and reduction gearbox oil tank and service as
necessary.
H. Starting
NOTE: 1. Each power section may be started with its fuel system in MANUAL or AUTOMATIC
mode. However it is recommended that the AUTOMATIC mode be used.

WARNING: ENSURE THAT THE AIRCRAFT IS PROPERLY TIED DOWN (REF. AIRCRAFT
FLIGHT MANUAL).
NOTE: 1. The maximum gas generator speed adjustment and the manual-automatic
interconnect linkage adjustment affect each other. Hence, the entire procedure in
this check must be carried out whenever either of these adjustments requires
checking.
NOTE: 2. To ensure the capability of setting the gas generator maximum speed stop under a
wide variety of ambient conditions without exceeding engine operating limits, a slave
part power trim stop (P/N 3243781, Table 504) (Pre-SB5331) or integral part power
trim stop (Post-SB5331) is provided. The part power trim stop, when in use, enables
adjustment of the maximum obtainable Ng at lower power settings.
NOTE: 3. During adjustment of the gas generator maximum speed stop, ensure the following
conditions:
• The internal threads of the index lever are fully engaged.
• The stop screw touches the part power trim stop in the "in use" position or in
the "stowed" position.
• The locking nut and screw are correctly locked and lockwired.
(1) Pre-SB5331: Install slave part power trim stop (P/N 3243781, Table
504).
WARNING: EACH PART POWER TRIM STOP MUST BE PROPERLY STOWED AFTER
COMPLETION OF THE PART POWER TRIM CHECK.
(2) Post-SB5331: Remove pin securing part power trim stop in stowed
position.
(3) Rotate stop so that it limits travel of automatic fuel control
arm.
(4) Install cotterpin to secure stop and bend ends of pin
over.
(5) Start power section and proceed as follows:
(a) Fuel Control Selector Switch - AUTOMATIC.
(b) Set Power Control Lever so that arm contacts stop.

(6) Check that pointer on MFCU indicates 95 degrees. If not, adjust manual-automatic
interconnect linkage (4) as follows:
(a) With indicator at zero degrees (minimum stop), retard automatic fuel control
arm to compress spring and to disengage spacer tangs from self-locking nut.
(b) Adjust self-locking nut position as required and recheck indicator against 95
degree position.
NOTE: Ensure that spacer tangs are correctly positioned on nut flats and
between tangs of interconnect lever (Ref. Detail B).
(7) Hold the automatic fuel control arm in contact with maximum stop. Do a check for
clearance (3) between MFCU arm maximum stop adjuster (5) and maximum stop. The
clearance must be 0.015 to 0.020 in.
NOTE: It is recommended that rigging of the interconnect linkage is done with the
airframe control tube disconnected at the MFCU lever (Ref. Airframe
Maintenance Manual).
(a) If necessary, adjust manual-automatic interconnect linkage (4) to obtain the
required minimum clearance - no other adjustment is permitted.
NOTE: Ensure that torque required to turn adjustment nut is 1-1/2 lb.in.,
minimum. If necessary, replace nut.
(b) Retard Power Control Lever setting until MFCU minimum stop is contacted.
(c) Ensure that pointer is not bent. Straighten if necessary.
(d) If pointer deviates from 0 degrees by more than 1/16 (0.0625) in., MFCU must
be replaced.

(10)Check that successful transfer has taken place in both directions by observing shift of
parameters.
NOTE: 1. Mild surges or pops during transfer may be considered as normal.
NOTE: 2. If operator flies below 5000 ft., ground check as above is acceptable. If
operator flies above 5000 ft., the cross over must be checked as per Aircraft
Maintenance Manual.
(11)Check and adjust AFCU Idle setting.
(a) Start affected power section.
(b) Set Power Control Lever to position pointer on MFCU at 30 to 35 degrees on
quadrant.
(c) Check that Ng is between 20500 (53.8%) and 21000 rpm (55%).
(d) If necessary, adjust idle stop (7) to bring Ng within required range.
NOTE: The difference between Ng idle speeds of both power sections must
not exceed 250 rpm.
(e) On completion of check, torque idle stop locknut 20 to 25 lb.in. and lockwire.
(4) Rapidly (0.5 second max.) advance Power Control Lever to maximum setting and
retard as soon as 90% Ng is reached.
(5) Record time taken to accelerate to 90% Ng. Maximum acceptable time is 4 seconds,
with no more than 0.5 seconds between power sections.
NOTE: The maximum acceleration time of 4 seconds may be increased 1.0 second for
each 5,000 ft. (1525M) pressure altitude above sea level and/or 0.5 second for
each 30°C outside temperature above 15°C.
(6) If acceleration time exceeds limits, the acceleration adjuster on fuel control unit may
be adjusted, as follows:
