22. Verify that the stator is adequately supported
and then carefully remove the capscrews from
the stator attachment ring.
WARNING
To prevent personal injury, use
adequate lifting devices to support heavy
components. Keep hands and feet clear
while lifting.
CAUTION
Improper stator assembly rig-
ging and handling can result in damage to
stator and rotor assemblies. Lifting eyes
may not be at center-of-gravity position of
stator assembly. Therefore, lifting and mov-
ing the stator assembly alone, by hoisting
at lifting eyes only, presents the hazard of
load imbalance; allowing one end to drop
and other end to rise. Make sure the stator
is adequately hooked/strapped to maintain
level control of stator assembly while lifting
and moving.
23. Being careful not to drag the windings on the
rotor, move the stator assembly sufficiently
away from engine to sling and support the rotor
assembly. Do not allow rotor assembly to hang
on engine flywheel.
CAUTION
Drive disc damage can be
caused by allowing the rotor assembly to
hang on flywheel. Use adequate hoist and
sling to support the rotor assembly.
24. Reposition or add hoist and sling support for
the main rotor, and remove the forklift. See Fig-
ure 6-14, Rotor Lift detail.
WARNING
To prevent personal injury, use
adequate lifting devices to support heavy
components. Keep hands and feet clear
while lifting.
25. Remove the stator assembly, being careful not
to drag the windings on the rotor. Place stator
assembly away from the chassis in the horizon-
tal position.
26. Using the hoist and sling to support the rotor,
carefully remove the capscrews and flat wash-
ers that secure the drive discs to the engine fly-
wheel.
WARNING
To prevent personal injury, use
adequate lifting devices to support heavy
components. Keep hands and feet clear
while lifting.
27. Remove the rotor assembly and place it on
wood blocks in the horizontal position. To avoid
possible distortion, do not allow the drive discs
and fan to rest on anything.
