The impeller is attached to the shaft. For S/N 53443 and subsequent or S/N 53000 through 53442 post BHT-407-II-30 two weights are attached, along with the impeller, to the shaft. The weights are positioned aft of the impeller. The shaft is steel and drives the aft short shaft. The oil cooler blower shaft is splined at both ends. The oil cooler blower assembly is installed aft of the aff firewall. It holds the engine and transmission oil coolers. The oil cooler blower shaft is held by two bearing hangers, one on the forward end and one on the aft end. These are bolted to the helicopter structure. The oil cooler blower shaft is connected to the forward short shaft with a splined adapter (S/N 53443 and subsequent or S/N 53000 through 53442 post BHT-407-II-30) or a splined flywheel adapter (S/N 53000 through 53442 pre BHT-407-II-30) to the aft short shaft with a splined adapter, The splined adapters or the splined flywheel adapter can slide fore and aft on the oil cooler blower shaft splines. Balance plates may also be installed on each end of the oil cooler blower shaft to allow for dynamic balancing. The balance plates are only used with the splined adapter configuration. The impeller is covered by a housing that is attached to the helicopter structure. Helicopters that have an environmental control system use the oil cooler blower shaft to operate the air conditioner compressor. One of the weights is removed when the tail rotor drive is equipped with a compressor.
