NOTES:
1. Use fuels listed in authorized fuels list in appropriate BHT-412-FM and/or applicable Pratt and Whitney
Canada Engine Maintenance Manual.
2. Use lubricating oils listed in Flight Manual and/or other oils listed in Pratt and Whitney Aircraft Engine
Service Bulletin No. 5001 in the engine power sections and combining gearbox.
3. Change oil in engine power sections and combining gearbox at intervals stated in applicable Pratt and
Whitney Canada Engine Maintenance Manual.
4. Make entry in helicopter and engine log books to indicate type of oil used to service engine, transmission,
etc. to prevent subsequent servicing with different type of oil.
5. For helicopters S/N 36019 and prior, use lubricating oil DOD-PRF-85734 (C-030) or MIL-PRF-23699
(C-011) (NATO-O-148). When not available, use MIL-PRF-7808 (C-010) Type E and subsequent suffixes.
6. For helicopters S/N 36020 and subsequent and helicopters modified by 412-570-001-103 or
Post BHT-412-SI-74 (412SP to 412HP Upgrade), use only lubricating oil DOD-PRF-85734 (C-030).
7. Do not mix MIL-PRF-7808 (C-010), MIL-PRF-23699 (C-011), DOD-PRF-85734 (C-030) type oils, or other
lubricating oils. If oil does become mixed (by adding oil of a different type) or if oil type must be changed
due to availability of oil currently being used, or oil change is required due to climatic conditions, comply
with the following:
a. Drain lubricating oil from system. Inspect and clean system oil filters and strainers.
b. Fill oil system with lubricating oil to be used.
c. Operate system for a period of 30 minutes to 1 hour to heat oil to operating temperature. Shut down
engine.
d. Inspect and clean system oil filters and strainers. If heavy contamination of filters and strainer is noted,
repeat step a through step d. If little or no contamination of filters and strainers is noted, release helicopter
for service and proceed with step e and step f.
e. Operate helicopter for 5 hours and inspect and clean system oil filters and strainers. If no unusual
contamination is noted, continue with step f.
f. Operate helicopter for 10 hours (for a total of 15 hours after completion of step d) and inspect and clean
system oil filters and strainers. If no unusual contamination is noted, return to normal inspection interval.
8. Change transmission oil and replace external oil filter at 1/2 transmission TBO or 12 months, whichever
comes first.
9. Change oil in intermediate and tail rotor gearboxes at 300 hours or 180 days, whichever comes first.
NOTE
When adding hydraulic fluid, the same specification of hydraulic fluid already used in the
hydraulic systems shall be used. However, in circumstances where emergency top-off or
inadvertent mixing may occur, it is acceptable to use hydraulic fluid of the other approved
specification. No further maintenance action will be required.
10. Helicopters S/N 33001 through 33213, 34001 through 34036, and 36001 through 36636 were delivered
with hydraulic fluid MIL-PRF-5606 (C-002). For initial hydraulic fluid conversion from MIL-PRF-5606
(C-002) to MIL-PRF-87257 (C-072) and to retrofit helicopters with appropriate decals, refer to
TB 412-12-229. Helicopters S/N 36637 and subsequent are delivered with hydraulic fluid MIL-PRF-87257
(C-072). To change the specification of hydraulic fluid, refer to paragraph 12-15A. Make an entry in the
helicopter log book to indicate the specification of hydraulic fluid used to service hydraulic systems and the
rotor brake to prevent subsequent servicing with a different specification of hydraulic fluid.
