TM 55-4920-328-13 Section IX. T700 ENGINES 2-61. Installation and Preparation of T700 METS Test Adapter and T700 Engine for Testing. a. General Practices. When installing the test adapter, adherence to the following general practices will facilitate installation and help prevent unnecessary damage or wear and tear to the equipment. (1) During assembly, be careful not to drop nuts, washers, or other objects onto or into engine. If an object is dropped, do not proceed further until it is removed. (2) To aid in reassembly, keep bolts together as they are removed from each splitline. (3) Do not use excessive force to assemble parts. If excessive force is necessary, inspect surfaces for burrs or pickups. Repair or replace defective parts. (4) All attaching bolts or nuts, as applicable, must be tightened to the appropriate torque value. When special torque values are not specified in the text, refer to chapter 6 of this technical manual for standard torque values. (5) All used locknuts shall be tried for self-locking capabilities before being reused. Manually thread used locknut onto bolt or stud until it stops turning. Replace locknut if bolt or stud threads go past end of locknut. (6) Install corrosion resistant MS20995 lockwire of the appropriate wire gage, when instructed in the following text. Lockwire in accordance with MS33540. (7) See manual TM55-2840-248-23 for procedure on wrench-arc method for tightening, when this method is specified. WARNING LUBRICATING OIL MIL-M-7808 and MIL-M-23699 • If oil is decomposed by heat, toxic gases are released. • Prolonged contact with liquid or mist may cause dermatitis and irritation. • If there is any prolonged contact with skin, wash area with soap and water. If solution contacts eyes, flush eyes with water immediately. Remove saturated clothing. • If oil is swallowed, do not try to vomit. Get immediate medical attention. • When handling liquid, wear rubber gloves. If prolonged contact with mist is likely, wear approved respirator. (8) Discard all preformed packings (0- rings) that are removed during disassembly. Do not discard the fuel supply gasket unless sealing material is damaged. Apply a light coating of engine oil MIL-L- 78n8 or MIL-L-23699 to new preformed packings. Before installing new preformed packings, lubricate all grooves and surfaces with engine oil. (9) Unless otherwise noted, use a light coat of engine oil MIL-L-7808 or MIL-L-23699 to lubricate threads of bolts, screws, studs, coupling nuts, and fasteners used in assembly. Failure to do this may cause bolts to be improperly torqued or may cause shank nuts to become loose during assembly. It may also cause bolt seizure and/or failure during removal. 2-220 Change 2
