associated parts at the diffuser case rear flange to provide additional

rigidity in the mounting of fuel manifold assemblies. The following
instructions are broken down into two parts to reflect differing re-
quirements for earlier fuel manifolds containing some 5/16" diameter
secondary fuel tubes as opposed to later manifolds having all 7/16"
diameter secondary fuel tubes.

PART I - (For fuel manifolds having four 5/16" diameter secondary fuel tubes
use Kit, Part No. 541006.)

(1) At each of the four locations marked AU in Figure 1 Sheet 1,

install Bracket Assembly, Part No. 524302, on the front face of the
diffuser case rear flange and a Clip Assembly, Part No. 310613, around the
fuel manifold secondary tube as shown in Section BR-BR of Figure 1
Sheet 2.

(21 At each of the three locations marked FR in Figure 1 Sheet 1,

install a Bracket Assembly, Part No. 524302, on the front face of the
diffuser case rear flange and a Clip Assembly, Part No. 310637, around
the fuel manifold secondary tube as shown in Section BM-BM of Figure 1
sheet 2.

NOTE

It will be necessary to remove Screw, Part

No. 439376, from two of the diffuser case
rear flange jack screw locations where they
interfere with the installation of these
brackets.

(3) Close the tangs of the above installed clip assemblies with
the fingers and determine the size of the gap between the tangs and
the attaching face of the brackets. (The closed tangs must be positioned
parallel to the bracket face before taking the gap measurement.) If
the gap is less than 0.060 inch, use Screw, Part No. MS9316-04, and Nut,
Part No. 170499 or 307884, to secure the clip assembly to the bracket.
If the gap is 0.060-0.080 inch, install Spacer, Part No. 226949, in the
gap and secure clip and spacer to bracket using Screw, Part No.
MS9316-05, and the above nut. If the gap is 0.180-0.260 inch, install
Spacer, Part No. 524308, and use Screw, Part No. MS9316-05, and the
above nut.

(4) At each of the seven locations marked AU or FR in Figure 1

Sheet 1, install loop clamps between the primary and secondary fuel
manifold tubes as shown in Section BP-BP of Figure 1 Sheet 3 and as
follows:

NOTE

Any existing loop clamps anti spact!rs, installed

between the primary anti sctcondary fuel tubes will
bt, replacc:d by the parts installed in the following
instructions.

a. Install six c.cccntric Gro~:irr.c.t.s, Part No. 534933, around the

secondary ice1 tubt;s at threci locations marketi FR, and eight clccentric
Grommets, Part No. 534935, aroun(! the sccomiary fuel tubes at four lo-
cations marked AU. (R(:fcr to Figure 1 Sheet. i.)

b. Install 14 Grommets, Part Xo. 534934, around the primary

fuel tubes at sc:ven locations marked FR anti AU.

C. Rotate each scat of opposing grorrooc>ts on their axes until

they are tight against coach other, then install a Clamp, Part No. 534936,
over each of the> fourteen sets of grommets. Securca each clamp with
Screw, Part Iio. MS9316-04, and Xut, Part No. 157042 or 233347.

PART II - (For fuel manifolds having all 7/16” diameter secondary fuel tubes
use Kit, Part No. 541007.1

(1) At each of the sc?vcsn locations rliarked AU and FR in Figure 1

Sheet 1, install Brack(.t Assembly, Part No. 524302, on the front fact
of the diffuser case r(‘ar flange ant! a Clip Assembly, Part No. 310637,
around the: fucal manifold secondary tube as shown in Sections BR-BR and
&l-%1 of Figure: 1 Sheet 2. ’

(2) Closet the tangs of the above installed clip assemblies with the
fingers and determint: thus size of the gap between the tangs and the
attaching fact? of tht: bracktats. (The clos~~d tongs must bc positi oned
parallel to tht, brnckclt face before taking the gap mctasurement. ) If the
gap is less than 0.060 inch, use Screw, Part No. MS9316-04, and Nut,
Part X0. 170499 or 307884, to secure the clip assembly to tht> bracket.
If the: gap is 0.060-0.080 inch, install Spacer, Part No. 226949, in the
gap and secure clip and spacer to bracket using Screw, Part No. MS9316-05,
and the above nut. If the gap is 0.180-0.260 inch, install Spacer, Part
No. 524308, and USC’ Screw, Part lie. MS9316-05, and the above nut.

(3) At each of thr sc‘vcn locations marked AU or FR in Figure 1 Sheet

install loop clamps bctwcen the primary and secondary fuel manifold tubes
as shown in Section BP-BP of Figure: 1 Sheet 3 and as follows:

NOTE

Any existing loop clamps and spacers, installed

between thr: primary and secondary fuel tubes
will be replaced by the parts installed in the
following instructions.
