MAINTENANCE MANUAL
1. Inspection/Check
NOTE: The system shall be operationally checked after completion of system maintenance or
whenever system accuracy is in question.
NOTE: LH engine spool down shall be from stabilized idle N2 to 10% N2 rpm.
(5) With Synchronizer Selector Switch at TURB and RH engine at IDLE, set Engine Synchronizer
Switch to OFF and restart LH engine in accordance with approved Airplane Flight Manual.
(6) Advance LH engine to approximately 75% turbine speed.
(7) Set Engine Synchronizer Switch to SYNC and verify that RH engine turbine speed increases 2 to
3% and that engine synchronizer indicator pointer is at maximum SLOW position.
(8) With Synchronizer Selector Switch at TURB, set LH engine at IDLE and Engine Synchronizer
Switch to OFF.
(9) Advance RH engine to approximately 75% turbine speed.
(10) Set Engine Synchronizer Switch to SYNC and verify that RH engine turbine speed decreases 2 to
3% and that engine synchronizer indicator pointer is at maximum FAST position.
(11) Set Engine Synchronizer Switch to OFF and advance RH engine to takeoff power.
(12) Set Engine Synchronizer Switch to SYNC and verify that RH engine turbine speed decreases less
than 0.5%.
(13) With Synchronizer Selector Switch at TURB, set Engine Synchronizer Switch to OFF.
(14) Adjust LH engine to approximately 75% turbine speed and RH engine to approximately 77% tur-
bine speed.
(15) Set Engine Synchronizer Switch to SYNC and verify that engine synchronizer indicator pointer
moves to SYNC position.
(16) Set Engine Synchronizer Switch to OFF and adjust RH engine to approximately 73% turbine
speed.
(17) Set Engine Synchronizer Switch to SYNC and verify that engine synchronizer indicator pointer
moves to SYNC position.
(18) Adjust RH engine to approximately 70% turbine speed and verify that there is no noticeable
change in LH engine turbine speed and that engine synchronizer indicator pointer indicates RH
SLOW.
(19) Set Synchronizer Selector Switch to FAN and Engine Synchronizer Switch to OFF.
(20) Adjust LH engine to approximately 50% N1 speed and RH engine to approximately 52% N1 speed.
(21) Set Engine Synchronizer Switch to SYNC and verify that engine synchronizer indicator pointer
moves to SYNC position.
(22) Adjust RH engine to approximately 48% N1 speed and verify that there is no noticeable change in
LH engine N1 speed and that engine synchronizer indicator pointer indicates RH SLOW.
(23) Set Engine Synchronizer Switch to OFF.
(24) If engine synchronizer system does not check out within limits, refer to manufacturer's publication
listed under Supplemental Publications in the Introduction to this manual.
(25) Shut engines down observing normal engine shutdown procedures.
