4. Hardware
A. Use 0.020 in. (0.51 mm) diameter stainless steel lockwire, MS20995C20 where lockwire size is
not specified. Double strand lockwire all drilled bolts, plugs, and screws, except those locked with
selflocking nuts or lockwashers. Lockwire bolts in pairs where possible. When reassembling be
sure to safety wherever lockwire was removed. Do not use zinc lockwire. Do not reuse lockwire,
cotter pins, ring seals, lip seals, composition gaskets, and split or tab washers. Selflocking nuts
can be reused if they have a minimum prevailing torque within the limits given in Table 303.
NOTE: It is not necessary to lockwire engine electrical and magnetic connectors that are of the
selflocking, quickdisconnect type.

5. Torques
A. The following paragraphs contain general torque limits for tightening nuts, bolts, and screws.
(Refer to Table 304). Torque limits for special applications are provided under maintenance for the
specific component. Reuse selflocking nuts having a minimum prevailing torque within the limits
given in Table 303. When the tightening procedure calls for locknut drag to be added to a given
torque value, obtain the drag as follows:
(1) Tighten the nut snug.
(2) Back off one half turn.
(3) Locknut drag is the torque required to first turn the loosened nut.

B. Tighten without the use of a thread lubricant unless one is specified. Threads must be free of burrs
or nicks, and they must turn freely. Complete tightening at the first draw--down causes
overstressing of parts and distorted splitlines. On bolt circles, alternately tighten nuts, bolts, or
screws that are 180 apart to half of minimum torque. Repeat the process, tightening to specified
torque. On splitlines other than bolt circles tighten midsection nuts, bolts, or screws first to half
minimum torque; then tighten remaining threaded parts to half minimum torque. Repeat the
process, tightening to specified torque.
C. When screws are installed with nuts, the torque for the screw shall apply. (Refer to Table 304.) On
nuts with a thread size larger than one inch, tighten nuts to maximum specified torque to seat parts.
Loosen and retighten as specified.
D. When tightening or loosening coupling nuts, make sure the nipple does not turn on the seat of the
mating fitting. Apply torque paint across the fitting threads after tightening them. Bottoming torque
on bushing type parts that seat metal over a seal is the same as for fittings with like thread size.
For correct torque limits, see Tables 305 and 307.
E. When you use an extension wrench that would change the effective length of the torque wrench, it
is necessary to calculate the applied torque from the required torque (Ref. Figure 301A).
6. Universal Fittings (Ref. Figure 301)
A. Fittings With Backup Rings
Use this procedure to install universal fittings with backup rings.
(1) Install the nut on the fitting and run it back until the counterbore of the nut aligns with the upper
inner corner of the gasket groove.
(2) Lubricate the seal and install it on the fitting.
(3) Work the backup ring into the counterbore of the nut.
(4) Turn the nut down until the seal is pushed firmly against the lower threaded section of the
fitting.
(5) Install the fitting into the boss, making certain the nut turns with the fitting, until the seal
touches the boss. Then tighten the fitting one and one--half turns more.
(6) Put a wrench on the nut to prevent its turning, and position the fitting by turning it not more
than one turn.
(7) (Hold the fitting in its position and tighten the nut against the boss.

(3) Reject tubes having dents or chafing on the flared ends or on the retention clamps.
(4) Reject tubes with dents exceeding 1/8 in. (3 mm) depth or having a sharp radius.
B. Flared Tubes
WARNING: PROPER TIGHTENING OF ENGINE TUBING CONNECTIONS IS CRITICAL TO
FLIGHT SAFETY. CORRECT TORQUE VALUES MUST BE USED AT ALL TIMES.
EXCESSIVE TORQUE ON PNEUMATIC SENSING SYSTEM CONNECTIONS
RESULTS IN CRACKING OF THE FLARE OR ADJACENT TUBE AREA IN
CONTACT WITH THE FERRULE. THIS PRODUCES AN AIR LEAK WHICH CAN
CAUSE FLAMEOUT, POWER LOSS, OR OVERSPEED.
CAUTION: FAILURE OF ENGINE PNEUMATIC OR FUEL TUBES DUE TO FAULTY
MAINTENANCE PRACTICE COULD CAUSE FLAMEOUT, POWER LOSS, OR
OVERSPEED.
Tube assemblies must fit and be aligned with the mating flare tube fittings to the degree that at both
ends of the assembly the flares shall be uniformly seated in a free state on the cones of the mating
fittings. The fit shall be without distortion or stretching of the tube assembly and to the degree that
the nuts can be fully engaged up to the final onehalf turn with light finger pressure.
CAUTION: THE PRACTICE OF TIGHTENING FITTING LOCK NUTS WITH TUBE
ASSEMBLIES INSTALLED CAN RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE TUBE WITH
POSSIBLE FAILURE OF THE TUBE ASSEMBLY.
In the event a tube does not align with the mating fittings, reposition the mating fittings to the
degree that proper alignment may be attained. Final tightening of these fittings must be
accomplished before the tube assembly is connected.
CAUTION: EXTREME CAUTION MUST BE OBSERVED WHILE HAND BENDING
PREVIOUSLY FORMED TUBES TO PREVENT EXCESSIVE FLATTENING OF
TUBES AT THE BEND RADIUS.
If proper alignment cannot be attained by repositioning mating flare tube fittings, bend the tube
sufficiently to provide alignment in the free state as specified. Accomplish all bending with the tube
removed from the engine. Adjustment of the fit may be accomplished by bending by hand at
principal bends. In the event the tube cannot be bent by hand, the tube must be clamped in a
fixture or device which will not scratch, indent, crimp, or mark the surface of the tube during the
bending operation. The flattened effect of the cross section of the tube as a result of the reforming
operation must not exceed 15 percent of the tube OD.
CAUTION: MAKE SURE NO LOOSE PARTICLES OF TORQUE PAINT ARE ALLOWED TO
ENTER THE TUBES OR FITTINGS.
WARNING: TUBING BNUTS USED IN INSTALLATIONS EXPOSED TO A HIGH DEGREE OF
VIBRATION AND PRESSURE SURGES ARE SUBJECT TO TORQUE
RELAXATION WHEN IMPROPERLY TIGHTENED.
When proper free state alignment is attained, complete the tubing installation by simultaneously
securing the coupling nuts. After all Bnuts are properly tightened to the correct torque values,
remove old torque paint marks to prevent confusion and excessive build up of paint. Apply a new
slippage mark (torque paint) of contrasting color approximately 0.063 inch (1.60 mm) wide
minimum. The mark shall extend down the side of the Bnut and onto the mating fitting. Install
necessary clamping. (Refer to 250B17F Illustrated Parts Catalog, Pub. No. CSP23008, for
clamping requirements.) Make sure that the correct clamps are installed in the correct positions on
all tubing.
Bnuts shall be inspected for indications of slippage at 100 hour maintenance intervals.
720000

250B17F SERIES OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
Old slippage marks (torque paint) shall be completely removed, using torque paint remover, and
reapplied each time the Bnut is tightened.
C. Flanged Tubes
WARNING: PROPER TIGHTENING OF ENGINE TUBING CONNECTIONS IS CRITICAL TO
FLIGHT SAFETY. CORRECT TORQUE VALUES MUST BE USED AT ALL TIMES.
EXCESSIVE TORQUE ON PNEUMATIC SENSING SYSTEM CONNECTIONS
RESULTS IN CRACKING OF THE FLARE OR ADJACENT TUBE AREA IN
CONTACT WITH THE FERRULE. THIS PRODUCES AN AIR LEAK WHICH CAN
CAUSE FLAMEOUT, POWER LOSS, OR OVERSPEED.
The alignment of tube fittings with mating sealing surfaces and the securing of tube clips must
conform to the following:
(1) Nut and Nipple Joints. With one end hand tightened, it must be possible to locate the nipple at
the free end in its conical seating, by flexing the tube by hand, without effecting a permanent
set to the assembly. The alignment of the joint must be such that the nut readily engages with
its mating thread.
(2) Setscrew Retained Flanged Adapters. The clearance and parallelism between flange and
mating surface, with the opposite end secured, must be such that the total flange area contact
can be achieved by flexing the tube by hand, without effecting a permanent set to the
assembly. Flange clearance holes must line up with tappings such that bolts can be fitted
without subjecting the tube to a torsional load.
(3) Clipping Points. Locate clips to securing points such that the setscrews can be fitted by flexing
the tube by hand, without effecting a permanent set to the assembly. Tubes which fail to meet
this requirement may be removed from the engine and reformed as follows:
(a) Tubes must be clamped in a fixture which will not scratch, indent, crimp or mark the
surface of the tube during the bending operation.
(b) Retention of the tube during bending should be made in a manner which does not permit
bending or torsional loads across welded or brazed areas.
(c) Tubes which can be corrected for fit only by submitting welded areas to bending or
torsional loads, must be reinspected by Xray or Zyglo for any evidence of weld or braze
fracture prior to reinstallation on the engine.
(d) Reformed tubes must meet the requirements of steps (1) and (2).
(4) When removal of the tube from the engine would result in excessive lost time due to the need
for teardown and rebuild, the tube may be reformed attached to the engine if the following
precautions are followed:
(a) Bending and torsional loads must not be applied across welded or brazed areas.
(b) The tube attachment points are to be loosened after bending (attachment points which
are inaccessible due to the state of assembly are inaccessible due to the state of
assembly are excluded).
(c) Reformed tubes must meet the requirements of steps a and b.
10. Lubricants
CAUTION: DO NOT USE MOLYBDENUM DISULFIED LUBRICANTS ON INTERNAL THREADS OR
ON ANY FUEL, LUBRICATION OR AIR SYSTEM TUBING, HOSE OR FITTINGS.
CAUTION: DO NOT USE SILICONE LUBRICANTS EXCEPT WHERE SPECIFIED. USE
LUBRICANTS RECOMMENDED IN THE ENGINE PUBLICATIONS.
The following lubricants shall be used for assembly of the engine and at regular periodic lubrication of
components.

(1) Drain the engine oil supply tank and engine oil cooler. Where the installation permits, inspect
the oil tank and cooler for carbon and sludge deposits. If deposits are found, remove the oil
tank or oil cooler in accordance with the aircraft manufacturers recommendations. Clean the
tank or cooler using a suitable solvent.
(2) Remove the magnetic drain plugs from the power and accessory gearbox. Allow residual oil to
drain from the magnetic plug openings in the gearbox. Inspect the plugs in accordance with
Magnetic Plug Inspection, para 11.I., this section. Clean the plugs with solvent. Dry with a
clean cloth.
(3) If an accumulation of magnetic particles, debris, chips, flakes or slivers are the cause for oil
change, remove, disassemble, clean and inspect the oil pressure reducer at the compressor
front support inlet to the number one bearing. (Refer to para 3., 72--30--00.)
(4) Remove the oil filter and packing from the filter housing. Discard the packing. Thoroughly
clean the oil filter cavity of all residual oil and sludge. Take the necessary precautions to
prevent residual oil from entering the engine cavity or standpipe. Clean the oil filter. (Refer to
Oil Filter Replacement, para 1.C., 72--60--00.)
(5) Remove and clean the external scavenge oil filter (if installed). Refer to the applicable
airframe manual for cleaning instructions.
NOTE: Some engine bearings feature silver--plated separators. If minute silver particles are
found in the engine oil filter, clean and reinstall the filter. These minute particles are
due to normal bearing wear and are not cause for further corrective action.
(6) Install the magnetic drain plugs. Use new packings lubricated with engine oil. Tighten plugs to
60--80 lb in. (6.8--9.0 N.m) and secure with lockwire.
(7) Install new or cleaned oil filter with new packing. Install the filter cap with a new packing which
has been lubricated with engine oil. Retain cap with two nuts and washers. Tighten nuts to
30--40 lb in. (3.4--4.5 N.m).
(8) Fill the oil supply tank with approved oil.(Refer to Approved Oils, 4.C.(2), 72--00--00,
Engine--Description and Operation.) (Refer to Airframe Manual for proper quantity of oil.)
(9) Disconnect the No. 1 bearing scavenge line at the compressor front support scavenge fitting
and the No. 8 bearing scavenge line at the gas producer support scavenge fitting.
(10) Motor the engine with the starter without ignition until an indication of oil pressure is attained
and oil flow has been verified from the No. 1 and No. 8 scavenge fittings. If flow from these
two fittings or oil pressure are not attained, then refer to CSL TP 2039 for further
troubleshooting recommendations. Reinstall and torque the lines removed in para 11.F.(9).
Torque the lines to 150--200 lb in. (17--23 Nm). When you see oil pressure, start the engine
and operate at Idle for five minutes. Monitor the oil pressure continuously during the
five--minute run.

CAUTION: OPERATORS ARE TO MONITOR THE OIL FILTER EACH 25 HOURS OF OPERATION
FOLLOWING A CHANGE FROM MILL7808 OIL TO MILL23699, OR FROM
MILL23699 TO MILL7808. THIS IS TO BE DONE TO DETERMINE IF COKE,
WHICH WAS FORMED DURING PREVIOUS OPERATION WITH EITHER MILL7808
OIL OR MILL23699, IS BECOMING DISLODGED DURING PRESENT OPERATION
FOLLOWING THE OIL CHANGE. IF HEAVY OIL DEPOSITS ARE OBSERVED ON
THE ENGINE FILTER, IT IS SUGGESTED THAT THE ENGINE OIL BE CHANGED
AGAIN. THE OIL IS TO BE DRAINED WHEN THE OIL IS HOT TO OBTAIN THE
MAXIMUM BENEFIT. THE 25HOUR OIL MONITORING IS TO CONTINUE UNTIL THE
NEXT OIL CHANGE PERIOD.
CAUTION: USE OF OILS WHICH ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE APPROVED OIL LISTING (PARA
4.C., 720000 ENGINEDESCRIPTION AND OPERATION) OR FAILURE TO DRAIN
OIL WITHIN THE PRESCRIBED INTERVAL GIVEN IN TABLE 602 WILL BE
CONSIDERED AS MISUSE UNDER ITEM (4) OF THE WARRANTY POLICY.
CAUTION: REMOVE AND INSPECT THE OIL FILTER EACH 25 HOURS OF ENGINE
OPERATION IF THE TYPE OF OIL (MILL7808, MILL23699 OR DOD85734)
IS CHANGED.
CAUTION: USE OF OILS WHICH ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE APPROVED OILS LISTING
(PARA 4.C.(2)., 720000, ENGINEDESCRIPTION AND OPERATION) OR
FAILURE TO DRAIN OIL WITHIN THE PRESCRIBED INTERVAL GIVEN IN TABLE
602, 720000, ENGINE INSPECTION/CHECK WILL BE CONSIDERED AS
MISUSE UNDER ITEM (4) OF THE WARRANTY POLICY.
The emergency use of mixed oils (oils not in the same series; refer to para 4.C., 720000,
EngineDescription and Operation) is limited to five hours running time. Following an emergency
use of mixed oils, drain the system and clean the filter. (Refer to Oil Filter Replacement, para 1.C.,
726000.) Thoroughly flush the system with engine oil while motoring the engine. Drain and refill
with approved oil in accordance with Oil Change, para 11.F., this section.
H. Cleaning
(1) Clean the oil filter element and filter cavity in accordance with Oil Filter, para 1.C., 726000.
(2) Remove and clean the magnetic drain plug on the forward side of the power and accessory
gearbox. (Refer to para 11.I., this section.) While the magnetic plug is removed, motor the
engine with the starter and without ignition long enough to allow one to two ounces (3059
milliliters) of oil to flow from the opening. Observe flow for restriction and/or for extent of oil
contamination. Motoring flushes residual carbon particles from the power and accessory
gearbox. Reinstall magnetic drain plug; tighten to 6080 lb in. (6.89.0 N.m) and secure with
lockwire.

(3) Detach clamp, then disconnect the power turbine pressure oil tube at the connector (tee).
Loosen the coupling nut at the fireshield end of the pressure oil tube; loosen only enough to
permit movement of the tube from the connector. Remove the screen at the connector end of
the tube. While the tube is disconnected, motor the engine with the starter and without ignition
long enough to allow one to two ounces (3059 milliliters) of oil to flow from the tube. Flush
the screen in mineral spirits and shake dry. Reinstall the screen in the pressure oil tube.
Attach the tube to the connector. Tighten the coupling nut at the connector end of the tube to
200250 lb in. (2328 N.m); tighten coupling nut at the fireshield elbow end of the tube to
80120 lb in. (9.013.6 N.m). Secure tube clamp; tighten clamp nut to 3540 lb in.
(3.94.5 N.m).
I. Magnetic Plug Inspection
WARNING: IF A MAGNETIC PLUG WARNING LIGHT COMES ON DURING FLIGHT, LAND
AND INSPECT THE MAGNETIC PLUGS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. THIS LIGHT
IS AN INDICATION OF CONDITIONS WHICH COULD CAUSE ENGINE FAILURE.
WHEN FLYING A MULTIENGINE AIRCRAFT, REDUCE THE AFFECTED ENGINE
OUTPUT POWER TO THE MINIMUM REQUIRED FOR FLIGHT AND LAND AS
SOON AS PRACTICABLE. IF THE LIGHT IS ACCOMPANIED BY ABNORMAL
NOISES, OIL PRESSURE OR TEMPERATURE, AND SINGLEENGINE FLIGHT
CAN BE MAINTAINED, SHUT DOWN AFFECTED ENGINE AND LAND AS SOON
AS PRACTICABLE. IF SINGLEENGINE FLIGHT IS NOT POSSIBLE, REDUCE
POWER OF AFFECTED ENGINE TO THE MINIMUM AND LAND AS SOON AS
POSSIBLE. AFTER LANDING, INSPECT THE MAGNETIC PLUGS ON THE
AFFECTED ENGINE FOR METAL CONTAMINATION PRIOR TO FURTHER
ENGINE OPERATION.
Two indicating type magnetic drain plugs are installed in the power and accessory gearbox and one
is installed in the propeller reduction gearbox. If a warning light is received in the cockpit, remove
and visually inspect the magnetic drain plugs. The contamination conditions which may be
encountered on the magnetic plugs are defined as follows:
(1) Paste
(a) Paste is the result of fine soft particles which come from normal wear due to gear mesh,
bearing rotation and/or spline engagement. These particles mix with oil or soft carbon to
form paste.
(b) This condition is normal and is the reason for the 100 hour cleaning interval. Paste
generally does not cause a warning light. If a light is encountered, make the magnetic
plug check in para 11.I. (3), this section.
(c) Clean magnetic plugs with solvent and brush. Wipe dry with clean cloth or blow dry with
filtered shop air. Reinstall, tighten to 6080 lb in. (6.89.0 N.m).
NOTE: Heavy accumulations of paste require inspection and cleaning of the magnetic
plugs at intervals of 25 to 100 hours. Cleaning paste from the plugs is
necessary to ensure that small chips, flakes, and slivers can be detected.
(2) Magnetic Particles
(a) Magnetic particles and debris, chips, flakes, and slivers are possible indications of bearing
or gear failure and/or abnormal wear within the engine.
(b) Chips or flakes exceeding 1/32 in. (0.79 mm) diameter or more than 4 slivers per event
are not acceptable.
1 Remove engine and send to an RollsRoyce Authorized Maintenance Center (AMC).
2 Prior to operation of the replacement engine, do the following:
a If a scavenge oil filter is installed and the filter bypass button has not extended,
clean the airframe provided engine oil lines and replace the scavenge oil filter.

b Confirm proper operation of the scavenge oil filter impending bypass indicator
by performing the functional check per Facet Service Bulletin No. 090589 (ref.
RollsRoyce TP CSL 2017) for aircraft equipped with this type of external
scavenge filter system.
c If the scavenge oil filter has bypassed, if the impending bypass fails the
functional test, or if no scavenge filter is installed, clean or replace the scavenge
oil filter, oil cooler, oil tank, and lubrication system oil lines per the airframe
manufacturers instructions. Drain and replace the engine oil. (Refer to
EngineServicing, Oil Change, para 11.F., 720000.)
(c) Chips or flakes less than 1/32 in. (0.79 mm) diameter or fewer than 4 slivers per event are
acceptable.
1 If a warning light is encountered, refer to para 11.I.(3), this section.
2 Reinstall the magnetic plug and tighten to 6080 lb in. (6.89.0 N.m).
(3) Magnetic Light Indication
Perform the following maintenance actions following each encounter of magnetic light
indications:
(a) Clean the magnetic drain plugs. Perform a 30minute ground run at power. Observe
engine operation limits and chip warning lights.
1 If operation is normal, remove, inspect, clean, and reinstall the three chip detectors.
Return engine to service.
2 If chips or flakes less than 1/32 in. (0.79 mm) diameter or fewer than four slivers are
encountered during the 30minute run, proceed to the next step.
(b) If a chip light is encountered during the first 30 minute ground run, the following steps
must be taken before the second 30minute ground run.
1 Drain oil.
2 Clean engine oil filter.
3 Flush the aircraft oil system to remove any circulating debris.
4 Clean engine chip detectors.
5 Service engine oil system with fresh, clean oil.
6 Perform a 30minute ground run at power. Observe engine operating limits and chip
warning lights. If operation is normal then remove, inspect, clean, and reinstall both
chip detectors. Return engine to service.
7 If a chip light is encountered during the second 30minute ground run, remove the
engine from service and send to an RollsRoyce Authorized Maintenance Center
(AMC). Clean the aircraft engine oil system per para 11.I.(2), this section.
NOTE: If a warning light illuminates within the next eight operating hours following
a 30 minute ground run, and the cause is determined to be an
accumulation of magnetic particles and debris (chips, flakes or slivers),
remove the engine and send to an RollsRoyce Authorized Maintenance
Center (AMC). Tag engine noting cause for rejection. This note is
applicable only after para 11.I. (3) (b), this section has been completed
(reference Oil Drain and Flush); otherwise, this is another event.
(c) A maximum of four occurrences of magnetic chip warning light encountered within any 50
hours of engine operation requires removal of the engine for shipment to an RollsRoyce
Authorized Maintenance Center (AMC).
