ALL oll-lubricated main rotor head parts must
be Kept under a cover of plastic foil during
disassembly, to prevent from dirtying.
The surface of removed or opened needle bearings
must be completely preserved with oil.
‘The previously drained retor head ofl may be
re-used for this purpose, thus drain the rotor
head oil pan only.
Repeat preservation of parts if removed or
‘openened longer than 22 Fours since disassembly ~
every 22 hours.
If dictying of removed or opened parts was un=
avoidable, the affected parts must be cleaned
before installation. Cletning 8 accomplished

(reaning of needle bearing? in ultrasonic
cleaning bath is recommerded).
Do not use trichlorethylene or perchlorethylene
of any cleaning solvent containing hydrocarbon
Chloride for cleaning or removal of preservative
Oil, because these agents may not evaporate
Completely (particularly behind rollers and
Gage) and hydrocarbon chloride residue may
produce corrosion.
Continuously check ultrasonic cleaning bath
for impurities. Renew the bath as soon as it
begins to appear muddy.
During cleaning procedure, wear clean Linen
gloves to avoid corrosion due to perspiration

Place the cleaned rotor read parts on a drying
rack until the cleaning agent has evaporated.
In case the rotor head hes to be cleaned, place
LE Into a drying oven at about 409C for a period
of approx. 10 minutes.
After drying, provide for intermediate pre-
servation of cleaned neecle bearings.
