Subtask 72-23-00-860-051-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL

A. Aircraft Maintenance Configuration
(1) On the center pedestal, on the ENG panel 115VU, make sure that a WARNING NOTICE(S) is in position to tell persons not to start the engine.
(2) On the overhead maintenance panel 50VU, make sure that the ON legend of the ENG/FADEC GND PWR/1(2) pushbutton switch is off. Make sure that a WARNING NOTICE(S) is in position to tell persons not to energize the FADEC 1(2).
(3) Make sure that the ACCESS PLATFORM 1M (3 FT)-ADJUSTABLE is in position.

4. Procedure
Subtask 72-23-00-420-051-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL

CAUTION: ENSURE BEFORE INSTALLATION THAT THE PS12 HOLE ON THE SKIN FILLET CORRESPONDS TO A PS12 PORT ON THE FORWARD CASE AND THAT THE SKIN FILLET DOES NOT COVER THE PS12 PORT.

A. Installation of the Fan Forward Acoustical Panels

NOTE: Forward acoustical panel assy is composed of the acoustical panel plus the 2 skin fillets. In case of a non-damaged skin fillet, these skin fillets can be reinstalled with the new acoustical panel.

(1) If necessary, assemble the 2 skin fillets (60) on the acoustical panel (70).

CAUTION: COATING SCREWS IS MANDATORY.

(a) Apply a layer of graphite grease (Material No.CP2101) to the threads of all the screws that attach the acoustical panels and to the contact faces below the screw heads.
(2) Do a visual inspection of the forward acoustical panel cup (Ref. AMM TASK 72-23-00-280-025).
(3) If panel cup is found pierced (Ref. AMM TASK 72-23-00-400-045).

CAUTION: DO NOT EXCEED THE SPEED OF 200 RPM TO APPROACH ALL ACOUSTICAL PANEL SCREWS BY USING PNEUMATIC OR ELECTRICAL SCREW DRIVERS.

(4) Install the panel assy on the forward case, and attach it with 6 screws (80).

NOTE: Whenever possible, start to torque with the screws in the center of the acoustical panels.

(5) Measure the self-locking nut torque of each nut when you start to tighten the screw.

NOTE: Make sure that the screws are not damaged, replace them if necessary.

(a) If the self-locking nut torque is less than 4.5 lbf.in (0.05 m.daN) (Ref. AMM TASK 72-23-00-400-042).
(b) If the self-locking nut torque is between 4.5 lbf.in (0.05 m.daN) and 31 lbf.in (0.35 m.daN), TORQUE screws to between 93 and 84 lbf.in (1.05 and 0.95 m.daN )

.
(c) If the self-locking nut torque is more than 31 lbf.in (0.35 m.daN), but less than 49 lbf.in (0.55 m.daN), TORQUE screws at the running torque value and add 44 lbf.in (0.50 m.daN).
(d) If the self-locking nut torque is more than 49 lbf.in (0.55 m.daN), replace the self-locking nut (Ref. AMM D/O 72-23-00-30).
