REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION
Repaired items must be thoroughly cleaned to remove metal chips and abrasives to prevent
them from entering working parts of the vehicle. Failure to comply may result in damage
to equipment.
1.
General.
a.
Any repair procedure peculiar to a specific part or component is covered in the work package relating to
that item.
b.
After repair, clean all parts thoroughly to prevent dirt, metal chips, or other foreign material from entering
any working parts.
2.
Castings.
a.
Only minor repairs to machined surfaces, flanges, and gasket mating surfaces are permitted. Remove
minor nicks, burrs, and scratches with:
(1)
Fine-mill file.
(2)
Crocus cloth dipped in solvent cleaning compound.
(3)
Lapping across a surface plate.
b.
Remachining of machined surfaces to repair damage, warpage, or uneven surfaces is not permitted.
Replace castings.
c.
Repair damaged threaded pipe plug or screw threads with a tap or die. Repair oversized holes with
threaded inserts.
3.
Studs.
a.
Repair minor thread damage with a thread die.
b.
Replace studs having stripped or damaged threads as described below:
(1)
Remove using a stud remover. Back studs out slowly to avoid heat buildup and seizure that can
cause stud to break off.
(2)
If studs break off too short to use a stud remover, use a stud extractor to remove or use "welding
method": weld bar stock or a nut to stud and remove with a wrench.
(3)
Install replacement stud slowly to prevent heat buildup and break-off.
