INSTALLATION
OF
OIL
COOLER.
a.
When
installing
fittings
in
the
oil
cooler,
care
should
be
used
to
prevent
excessive
torque
being
applied
to
the
cooler.
A
back-up
wrench
should
be
used
on
the
rectangular
fitting
boss,
employing
a scissor
motion,
so that
no
load
is
transmitted
to
the
cooler.
b.
If
fitting
cannot
be
positioned
correctly
using
a
torque
of
10
to 15
foot-pounds,
another
fitting
should
be
used.
c.
When
attaching
lines
to
the
cooler,
a
back-up
wrench
should
be
used.
d.
After
installation,
inspect
the
cooler
for
distorted
end
cups.

INDUCTION
AIR
SYSTEM.
Induction
air
enters
the
intake
in
the
lower
cowl,
passes
through
the
filter
to
the
air
box.
Air
is then
ducted
through
the
turbocharger
and
into
the
injector.
A
valve
is installed
at
the
air
box
to
allow
for
the
manual
selection
of
alternate
air.
Alternate
air
is
taken
from
the
nose
gear
box
area.
The
following
should
be
checked
during
inspection:
a.
Check
that
the
air
valve
seals
are
tight
and
hinge
is
secure.
b.
Actuate
the
valve
to
determine
that
it is
not
sticking
or binding
and
the
control
cable
has
free
travel.
c.
Check
that
when
the
air
valve
is
fully
opened
and
the
cockpit
control
is
in the
open
position,
the
cable
has
6
to
8
pounds
tension
when
lever
goes
into
full
open
and
locked
position.
This
insures
positive
seal
in
the
air
box.
Cable
tension
is
measured
at the
control
lever
with
a
spring
scale.
Adjust
as
required.
d.
Check
the
automatic
magnetic
held
air
door
in
the
induction
tube
down
stream
of
the
blower
for
proper
operation
and
retension.

SERVICING
AIR
FILTER.
Visually
inspect
the
filter
to
determine
its
condition.
Accumulation
of exhaust
soot
(fine
carbon
particles)
collects
on
the
filter
and
causes
a rapid
increase
in
restriction
or
short
filter
life,
washing
is
effective
on
carbon,
soot
and
oil
laden
filters.
Filters
should
be
rejected
for
use
if
the
paper
filter
material
is
torn
or
ruptured
or
the
housing
is
damaged.
The
filter
gasket
should
have
no tears
and
be
securely
bonded
in
place.
The
usable
life
of
the
filter
should
be
restricted
to
one
year
or
500
hours,
whichever
comes
first.
The
method
of
cleaning
the
filter
is
as
follows:
a.
Tap
the
filter
on a
hard
surface
to remove
any
loose
particles
of

non-sudsing
detergent
or
the
filter
manufacturer's

of
D-1400
to
one
gallon
of
water.
c.
Soak
the
filter
in
solution
for
15
minutes,
then
move
the
filter
back
and
forth
about
two
minutes
to
free
the
dirt
deposits
from
the
filter.
d.
Rinse
the
complete
filter
in
a
stream
of
water
until
rinse
water
is
clear.
(Maximum
water
pressure
40
psi.)
A good
thorough
rinse
is very
important.
