CHAPTER 1

GENERAL

1.000 Introduction
The R22 Maintenance Manual contains instructions necessary for proper maintenance,
servicing, and handling of R22-series helicopters. The R22 Instructions for Continued
Airworthiness (ICA) includes the R22 Maintenance Manual (MM), R22 Illustrated Parts
Catalog (IPC), R22 Service Bulletins (SBs), R22 Service Letters (SLs), Lycoming O-320-
series and O-360-series Operator’s Manuals, applicable Lycoming technical publications,
and applicable component manufacturer technical publications.
Service Bulletins are issued by Robinson Helicopter Company (RHC), Lycoming, and
component manufacturers. RHC Service Bulletin compliance is mandatory; comply with
other applicable Service Bulletins as directed. RHC technical publications are available online
at www.robinsonheli.com. Recent technical publications are available from Lycoming at
www.lycoming.com, and from Continental Motors, Inc. (CMI) at www.continentalmotors.
aero.
Kit instructions are issued for field installation of either optional or mandatory (due to
Service Bulletin or parts obsolescence) equipment upgrades, or provisions for upgrades.
Kit instruction issued by RHC either implement approved type design data, or are approved
as type design data.

CAUTION
Always read instructions completely before performing a task.

1.001 R22 Maintenance Manual Revisions


Before using the R22 Maintenance Manual, verify it consists of current effective pages.
The list of effective pages is located in the Revision Log in Chapter 37. When a new
manual is purchased, complete and submit the Subscription Order Form available online at

available online at www.robinsonheli.com.

OCT 2018 Chapter 1 General Page 1.1


1.002 R22 Maintenance Authorization
Only appropriately certificated mechanics who have successfully completed an R22
factory-sponsored maintenance course, or are under direct supervision of the above-stated
mechanic, may perform maintenance, repairs, or inspections on R22-series helicopters.
Annual inspections of U.S.-registered light helicopters must be performed by holders of
an Inspection Authorization (IA) or by repair stations certificated by the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA). The daily preflight and some preventive maintenance may be
performed by the above-stated mechanics, or by the pilot/owner after receiving appropriate
instruction in accordance with the R22 Pilot’s Operating Handbook and applicable aviation
regulations.

1.003 R22 Component Maintenance Authorization


Only appropriately certificated mechanics who have successfully completed both a factory-
sponsored maintenance course and component maintenance course, and who possess
technical data supplied by RHC, are authorized to perform maintenance specified in the
Component Maintenance Manual (CMM). Component maintenance may only be performed
at an RHC-authorized Service Center that has required special tools.

1.004 Maintenance Record


The Airframe Maintenance Record is available online at www.robinsonheli.com.
Airframe Maintenance Record blank PDF forms may be used for R22-series, R44-series, and
R66-series helicopters. Component Record blank PDF forms may be used for life-limited
or TBO components. Blank paper copies are available for purchase (P/N R8478 Airframe
Maintenance Record and P/N R8479 Component Record [pack of 20]).
A Component Record is a maintenance record of the removals, installations, or maintenance
performed on a life-limited or TBO component. When a life-limited or TBO component is
installed in the helicopter, the Component Record card is inserted in the Airframe Maintenance
Record. When a life-limited or TBO component is removed from the helicopter, remove the
Component Record card and keep the card with the Component. Major assemblies may
contain one or more life-limited or TBO component.
RHC encourages operators to utilize Component Record cards to assist in tracking time on
interchangeable parts since service lives may be different between models.
RHC does not create Component Record cards for spares, however, operators may create
their own.
RHCs Repair Station does not require a Component Record card in order to perform work
on a component, unlike a Component/Return Authorization form.
RHC recommends using a toner-based laser, or a pigment-based inkjet, color printer and 65
lb white (96 bright) premium card stock for Maintenance Record or Component Record card
production. Maintenance Record binders and tab sets are available separately (P/N R8656
Maintenance Record Binder and P/N R8650 Maintenance Record Tabs).

CHAPTER 2

INSPECTION

2.000 Introduction
The R22 helicopter must be inspected periodically to verify it is in airworthy condition.
Required inspection intervals are maximum 100 hours time in service or 12 calendar
months (annually), whichever occurs first; the inspection interval may be extended up to
10 hours, without accumulation, if allowed by local regulations. Fluid leaks, discoloration,
dents, scratches, nicks, cracks, galling, chafing, fretting, and corrosion all warrant further
investigation. Unairworthy items must be replaced or repaired as allowed by Robinson
Helicopter Company. This section contains procedures for performing the required periodic
airframe inspections.

2.100 General Procedures


Unless otherwise specified, the following general procedures apply to R22 inspection. When
required, magnetic particle inspection may be performed in accordance with ASTM E 1444
and MIL-STD-1907. Fluorescent penetrant inspection may be performed in accordance
with ASTM E 1417 and MIL-STD-1907.

2.110 Ball and Roller Bearings


The first indication of bearing failure is usually an increase in bearing noise. Noise
will almost always start several hours before bearing failure or any increase in bearing
temperature. Listen to drive system during start-up and shutdown. A failing bearing will
produce a loud whine, rumble, growl, or siren sound. Upon hearing an unusual noise,
thoroughly inspect all bearings before further flight. A failing bearing may have a distorted
seal or be exuding a large amount of grease. Do not rely on Telatemps to detect failing
bearings as temperature increase may occur only seconds before bearing disintegrates.
Refer to § 22-40.
The failure of either actuator bearing in flight could cause loss of power to the rotor
system and could result in a serious accident. The actuator upper ball bearing is on the
clutch shaft aft of the upper sheave; the actuator lower roller bearing is on the fanshaft aft
of the lower sheave. Just before complete failure of an actuator bearing, the clutch light
may flicker constantly (on and off in less than one second). This should not be confused
with its normal on-off re-tensioning in flight (on for 1-8 seconds then off). Flight should
not be resumed until cause of the flickering clutch light has been determined.

(Position rod ends for maximum rotation)

Page 2.2 Chapter 2 Inspection OCT 2018


2.120 Push-Pull Tubes, Rod Ends, and Spherical Bearings

2.121 Push-Pull Tubes


Nicks, cuts, or scratches in tube not more than 0.010 inch deep and not more than 1/4
of tube circumference may be polished out in lengthwise direction using 320-grit or finer
wet-or-dry abrasive paper and 1-inch minimum blend radius. If depth exceeds these
limits, tube must be replaced.
If tube is dented or flattened more than 5 percent of its diameter, it must be replaced.

2.122 Rod Ends and Spherical Bearings


Refer to Figure 2-1.
1. Maximum axial play: 0.020 inch
Maximum radial play: 0.010 inch
2. Looseness between bearing outer race and rod end housing is not permitted.
3. Rod ends not riveted in place must block passage of 0.020 inch diameter wire
through witness hole, if provided.
4. Rod end jam nuts and palnuts must be torqued per § 23-32 and torque striped, per
Figure 2-1, at the most visible position for pre-flight inspection. Torque stripe must
extend across nuts to both rod end shank and push-pull tube (or pitch link barrel,
yoke, support, strut, etc.). Torque stripes are subject to deterioration and must be
periodically renewed.
5. Rod ends must be centered, i.e., rod ends should be positioned to allow as much
movement as possible without binding.

WARNING
Assembly of flight controls is critical and requires inspection
by a qualified person. If a second person is not available, the
installer must take a 5-minute break prior to inspecting flight
control connections he has assembled.
CAUTION
Teflon-lined bearings must not be lubricated or solvent cleaned.

ELASTOMER FATIGUE ELASTOMER OIL CONTAMINATION

FIGURE 2-2C
ELASTOMER OVERLOAD

Page 2.4 Chapter 2 Inspection OCT 2018


2.125 Elastomeric Bearings
Elastomeric bearings are used in the A062-1 tail rotor hub. Fatigue, oil contamination, or
overload can degrade the elastomer.
Small surface cracks (fatigue cracks) and elastomer dust or “eraser crumbs” (see Figure
2-2A) are normal and are not causes for replacement. As cracks grow, enough elastomer
will be lost to cause reduced stiffness and increased vibration. If deep (greater than 0.10
inch) cracks are present over more than 25% of elastomer face, replace bearing.
Avoid exposure to oil, grease, hydraulic fluid, cleaning solvent, and rust-preventative fluids.
Immediately wash off any such contaminants with detergent and water. Contaminated
bearings exhibit swelling, wavy edges, or debonding (see Figure 2-2B) and must be
replaced.
Overload occurs when elastomer’s tensile strength or rubber-to-metal bond strength is
exceeded. This can occur when normal loads are applied to a bearing weakened by
fatigue or oil contamination. Overload is indicated by large extrusions from and large
clean cracks in elastomer as shown in Figure 2-2C.
Elastomer may also separate (debond) from metal bushings. If separation occurs over
more than 25% of bonded area, replace bearing.

OCT 2018 Chapter 2 Inspection Page 2.5


2.130 Telatemp Indicators
Self-adhesive Telatemp indicators record changes in operating temperatures of bearings
and gearboxes. To use a Telatemp, draw a reference line between the highest temperature
square which has darkened during normal operation and the next undarkened square.
During every check thereafter, determine if an additional square has blackened. If
an indicated temperature increase cannot be accounted for by a change in operating
conditions, carefully examine the component before further flight.

NOTE
Telatemps can indicate erroneously if contaminated by a
petroleum product, typically appearing as white, unactivated
square(s) between darkened squares at each end; replace any
Telatemp indicating as such and clean area with acetone prior
to installing.

Part Number Temperature Range


F110-2 60°C / 140°F — 88°C / 190°F
F110-4 104°C / 220°F — 132°C / 270°F

Usage
F110-4 on A006-1 Main Rotor Gearbox
F110-2 on A184-3 Upper Actuator Bearing (just aft of upper sheave)
F110-2 on A181-4 Lower Actuator Bearing (just aft of lower sheave)
F110-2 on A021-1 or B021-1 Tail Rotor Gearbox

2.140 Torque Stripes


If, during inspection, the remaining torque stripe on a fastener is insufficient to determine
joint integrity, then remove accompanying palnut as required and apply specified torqe
to fastener. If fastener moves, disassemble joint and inspect parts for damage such as
fretting, thread deformation, hole elongation, etc.; replace damaged parts. If fastener
does not move, install new palnut as required & standard torque per § 23-32. Torque
stripe fastener per Figure 2-1.

2.572 Main Rotor Blade Sealant and Filler Cracking

The painted two-part epoxy filler used as an aerodynamic-smoothing and water-


blocking compound in main rotor blade root fitting and trim tab areas occasionally
cracks. To verify cracks are superficial, perform the following procedure:

1. Remove crack indications by hand sanding with 320-grit or finer wet-or-dry


abrasive paper until cracked paint and filler is removed. Occasionally wiping
with water helps highlight cracks. It is unnecessary to sand through to bare
metal in most cases.

WARNING

Do not use chemical paint strippers or power tools.

2. Sand spanwise with 400-grit or finer wet-or-dry abrasive paper to remove all
chordwise scratches.

3. Tap test suspect area to verify absence of voids.

4. Dye-penetrant inspect suspect area following penetrant manufacturer's


instructions.

5. If no voids and no cracks in metal are found, prime and paint area with approved
materials. Refer to Section 9.130.

6. Replace any blade exhibiting voids or metal cracks prior to further flight and
contact RHC Technical Support for further instructions.

2.573 Visual Inspection of Main Rotor Blade Root Area

A main rotor blade fatigue failure could occur if the helicopter is repeatedly flown
above its approved gross weight limit or operated above its approved manifold
pressure limits. The first indication of a fatigue crack in progress may be a rotor
that will not stay balanced after being adjusted. Another indication may be a very
fine hairline crack appearing in the areas shown in the figure below.

1. Visually examine both the upper and lower surface of each blade in the areas
shown with a 1 Ox magnifying glass.

2. If any indication of a crack is found, immediately ground the aircraft and return
the suspect blade to the RHC factory for examination.

2.700 Additional Special Inspections
2.710 Volcanic Ash Recommendations
Flight in visible volcanic ash conditions (“ash cloud”) is detrimental to the helicopter and
should be avoided. If helicopter has been operated in visible volcanic ash conditions:
1. Refer to Lycoming SI 1530. Wearing suitable protective equipment, use vacuum
cleaner followed by compressed air to remove as much debris as possible. Do not
use compressed air near main rotor blade drain holes.
2. Refer to R22 Pilot’s Operating Handbook (POH) Section 8. Thoroughly clean, wash,
and rinse helicopter, including inner circumference of drive belts.
3. Remove main rotor blade tip covers and clean blade tips.
4. Using 10X magnification, visually inspect any exposed main rotor blade skin-to-
spar bond line (adhesive) for gaps (empty space between skin and spar). Blade is
unairworthy if any gap, including “pin hole(s)”, is detected in the bond line. Refinish
blade as required.
5. Inspect condition of drive belt sheaves. Replace any sheave having corrosion pitting,
flaking, wear thru metalized or anodized coatings, roughness, or sharp ridges. Replace
drive belts if either sheave has sharp ridge(s) on drive belt contact surface.
6. Disconnect alternator drive belt from alternator. Spin alternator pulley by hand and
verify rotor bearings and brushes operate smoothly; repair alternator as required if
roughness or unusual noise is encountered (volcanic ash can enter via unfiltered
cooling air). Inspect alternator and ring gear support pulleys and verify no wear
steps; replace alternator belt and pulley(s) if wear steps exist. Perform Lycoming
SI 1129 alternator belt tension check and adjust as required.
7. Clean airbox interior and:
a. Inspect air filter and clean or replace as required.
b. Inspect induction system downstream of air filter (a clean, white glove is
beneficial). If volcanic ash is found then:
i. Clean induction system, disassembling as required.
ii. Disassemble carburetor or fuel injection servo, as applicable, inspect for
internal contamination, and overhaul as required.
iii. Perform Lycoming SI 1191 Cylinder Compression check.
iv. Perform Lycoming SB 388 Procedure to Determine Exhaust Valve and
Guide Condition.
v. Inspect spark plug condition; service as required.

OCT 2018 Chapter 2 Inspection Page 2.69


2.710 Volcanic Ash Recommendations (continued)
8. Remove each magneto’s distributor gear inspection plug and inspect visible internal
portion for contamination; overhaul magnetos if volcanic ash is found inside (magneto
vent plugs are unfiltered).
9. Inspect engine oil condition. Regardless of oil time-in-service if oil smells bad, is opaque
(or is not obviously brown), or if particulates are detectable on the dipstick, change
engine oil & oil filter, inspect suction screen and old oil filter, and perform Lycoming
SI 1191 Cylinder Compression check if not previously accomplished in step 6.

2.720 Lightning Strike


Lightning strikes are extremely rare for helicopters operating in VFR conditions.
If a lightning strike does occur, RHC recommends performing a 100-hour inspection per
§ 2.400 and following recommendations for aircraft struck by lightning per Lycoming
Service Bulletin No. 401.
High voltage that is well conducted through the aircraft structure will dissipate and cause
minimal damage. High voltage that is not well conducted through the aircraft structure
can result in excessive heat, which can bake, burn, char, or even melt certain materials.
Heat damage may or may not be detectable by visual inspection. A component may not
exhibit obvious damage, but temperatures above 300º F can alter the strength of some
materials and thus affect a component's service life and airworthiness.
Visually inspect main rotor blades, landing gear, drive train, airframe, and flight controls
thoroughly for obvious damage such as electrical arcing or burns, pitting, or cracking.
Particular attention should be given to rod ends, journals, etc., where the conductive
path is most susceptible. If obvious damage is detected in any of the above-mentioned
systems, additional components may require replacement. Contact RHC Technical
Support with detailed documentation for further guidance prior to approving aircraft for
return to service.

LIFE-LIMITED COMPONENTS

3.100 Life-Limited Components

3.110 Time-In-Service Records


It is the operator’s responsibility to maintain a record of time in service for the airframe,
engine, and life-limited components. R22s are equipped with either an oil-pressure-
activated hourmeter which records engine run time or a collective-activated hourmeter
which records flight (collective up) time. Either method may be used to track time in
service, however numerical values for service lives depend on the tracking method used
(refer to § 3.300).
Calendar time in service for the airframe and engine begins on the date of the original RHC-
issued Export (or Standard) Certificate of Airworthiness for the helicopter. For spares
without a storage limit specified in § 23-85, calendar time in service begins on the date
of the RHC-issued Airworthiness Approval Tag (Authorized Release Certificate) issued
with the invoice.
If a component or an inspection is scheduled for hourly and calendar intervals, comply
with whichever requirement comes first, then reset interval unless otherwise specified.
When installing a life-limited part or a part with an overhaul requirement, record in the
helicopter maintenance record the installation date, part number, part name, serial number,
helicopter total time, and time in service accumulated by part since new or since last
overhaul, as applicable.

WARNING
Components with mandatory overhaul times or life limits whose
time in service is not reliably documented cannot be considered
airworthy and must be removed from service.

3.120 Fatigue Life-Limited Parts


The Airworthiness Limitations section lists the mandatory replacement schedule for
fatigue life-limited parts.
Listed items must be removed from the helicopter at the specified intervals and permanently
retired from service by destroying or damaging each part so it cannot inadvertently be
returned to service. Fatigue lives are based upon normal flight service, including 6 rotor
stop-starts and 10 autorotation entries per hour.

3.300 Airworthiness Limitations
The Airworthiness Limitations Section is FAA approved and specifies inspections and other
maintenance required under 14 CFR §§ 43.16 and 91.403, unless an alternative program
has been FAA approved.
Time in service may be tracked based on engine run time or based on flight (collective up)
time. Either method may be used, however numerical values for service lives depend on
the tracking method used.

CHAPTER 4

AIRFRAME

4.000 Description
The R22 is a two-place, single main rotor, single engine helicopter constructed primarily of
metal and equipped with skid-type landing gear.
The primary fuselage structure is welded steel tubing and riveted aluminum sheet. The
tailcone is a monocoque structure in which aluminum skins carry primary loads. Fiberglass
and thermoplastics are used in secondary cabin structure, engine cooling shrouds, and
various other ducts and fairings.
A right-side cowl door provides access to the main gearbox and drive system. Additional
access to controls and other components for maintenance is provided by removable panels
and cowlings.
Stainless steel firewalls are located forward of and above the engine.

end of tailcone at lowest point. Extend plastic tube under tail rotor gearbox.
Recheck water level.

6. Refer to Figure 4-2C. From level of forward end of tailcone (at lowest point)
to horizontal centerline of tail rotor gearbox (horizontal mounting bolts), the
distance should be 16.21 ± 0.20 inches. Adjust height of tailcone as
required. Use stand to hold tailcone in place.

7. Refer to Figure 4-2D. Place a straight edge across the forward face of
tailcone and measure gap between straight edge and forward face of the
steel tube mounting structure. Measurements should be taken as close as
possible to the four tailcone mounting points. Adjust tailcone as necessary
to obtain a minimum dimension of 0.10 inch. Recheck and adjust vertical
and lateral centering of tailcone as required.

b) Drilling the Tailcone:

I 1. Refer to Figure 4-2D. Prior to drilling, verify minimum 0.345 inch edge
distance from tailcone edge to hole edge.

2. Clamp tailcone over three of the mounting points to prevent its movement.
To prevent oversize holes, back drill (from inside of tailcone) four mounting
holes, using a center drill with a 0.250 inch diameter shank, then use a
0.250 inch diameter twist drill. After drilling each hole, secure tailcone to
frame with appropriate fasteners to prevent tailcone movement.

I
3. Match drill middle left-hand side tailcone mount from outside using frame tab
as drill guide. Protect steel tube structure inside tailcone from drill bit with
a piece of scrap sheet metal.

4. Deburr drilled holes in tailcone. Refer to Figure 4-2E and accompanying


"CAUTION" statement. Center 8288-1 or -2 doublers over each tailcone
mounting hole and flush with tailcone forward edge. Mark doublers from
inside tailcone for drilling 0.250 inch diameter hole.

5. Refer to Figure 4-2E. Drill 8288-1 or -2 doubler with a 0.250 inch diameter
twist drill at spot marked in step 4. Deburr hole and secure doubler to
tailcone with a NAS 1304-3 bolt. Drill through existing pilot holes in doubler
with a #30 drill bit and secure with clecos.

LANDING GEAR

5.000 Landing Gear

5.001 Introduction
This section covers removal and reinstallation of the landing gear assembly, cross tubes,
skid tubes, skid shoes, and ground handling wheel supports.

5.002 Description
A skid-type landing gear is used. Most hard landings will be absorbed elastically. However,
in an extremely hard landing, the struts will hinge up and outward as the crosstube
yields (becomes permanently bent) to absorb the impact. Slight crosstube yielding is
acceptable. Replace forward crosstube when it contacts underlying cover. Yielding
which allows the tail skid to be within 34 inches (24 inches for R22 Standard or HP,
37 inches for Mariner) of the ground when the helicopter is sitting empty on level, hard
surface requires crosstube(s) replacement.
Abrasion-resistant wear shoes are mounted on the bottom of the skids. These shoes
should be inspected periodically, particularly if autorotation landings with ground contact
have been performed.
R22 Mariners have permanently inflated utility floats mounted to skid tubes and incorporate
aft skid extensions to support the floats.

6.000 Powerplant and Related Systems

6.001 Introduction

This section includes instructions for removal and installation of engine and support
systems. Support systems include induction, cooling and exhaust systems. Refer to
engine and engine component manufacturer’s maintenance publications for product
specific inspection, repair, and maintenance procedures.

6.002 Description

R22-series helicopters are powered by one of four different Lycoming engines. O-320-
A2B or O-320-A2C engines are installed in standard model R22s and are normally rated
at 150 horsepower. O-320-B2C engines are installed in R22 HP, R22 Alpha, and R22
Beta models and are normally rated at 160 horsepower. Beta II/Mariner II helicopters
have an O-360-J2A engine capable of 180 horsepower, derated by Lycoming to 145
horsepower. All engines are derated to 124 maximum continuous horsepower (MCP) by
limitation of manifold pressure and RPM. Beta, Mariner, and Beta II/Mariner II helicopters
have a 5-minute takeoff rating of 131 HP (see Pilot’s Operating Handbook). Starting
assist for O-320-A2B engines is provided by an impulse coupling installed on the engine-
left (helicopter-right) magneto. Starting assist for O-320-A2C, O-320-B2C, and O-360-
J2A engines is provided by a starter vibrator system and retard points in the engine-left
magneto. Tachometer points in the engine-right magneto supply engine RPM information
to the governor controller and engine tachometer. At 104% engine tachometer indication
the engine is turning 2652 RPM.

Induction is through an air filter located in a carburetor-mounted air box assembly.


Carburetor heat is supplied by an exhaust-pipe-mounted scoop and duct. Carburetor heat
is controlled through a cable-operated guillotine valve in air box. Carburetor inlet air is
filtered, even with carburetor heat on. Provision for an obstructed air filter is provided
by a spring loaded bypass valve mounted on the air box cover, or by air box flexing. On
Beta II/Mariner II aircraft, application of carburetor heat is correlated with changes in
collective setting through a friction clutch to reduce pilot work load. Lowering collective
mechanically adds carburetor heat and raising collective reduces carburetor heat. The
pilot may override the friction clutch and increase or decrease carburetor heat as desired.
A latch is provided at the carburetor heat control knob to lock carburetor heat off when
not required.

Cooling is supplied by an engine-mounted fanwheel enclosed by a fiberglass scroll. The


scroll ducts cooling air to engine-mounted panels which in turn direct air to cylinders,
external oil cooler, alternator, and main rotor gearbox.

Power is transmitted through a vertically mounted sheave-and-belt system which is


engaged by an electric belt tension actuator.

Battery charging and electrical power is supplied by 60-amp belt-driven alternator. A 70-
amp alternator is optional.

6.130 Engine Shimming

To facilitate sheave proper alignment, the engine must be shimmed to 3.55/3.65


inches, measured between ring gear top and bottom of upper frame's long cross tube
with clutch engaged.

1. Engage clutch.

2. Measure ring gear-to-upper frame cross tube dimension as shown in Figure 6-2. If
dimension exceeds 3.65 inches, an equal amount of shims must be added between
lower frames and both the lower-left and the lower-right engine rubber mount pads.
Use following formula to calculate required maximum shim thickness:

(Measured ring gear-to-upper frame dimension) - 3. 55 Calculated


2 shim thickness

Select shim(s) as required up to, but not exceeding, calculated shim thickness.
Shims are available in thicknesses of 0.032 inch, 0.063 inch, and 0.190 inch.
Removing an equal amount of shims from between both lower frames and the
lower-left and the lower-right engine rubber mount pads will increase ring gear-to-
upper frame cross tube dimension.

3. Disengage clutch

4. Remove side skirts.

5. Loosen upper-left and lower-left engine mount bolts. Leaving right engine mounts
torqued, install selected shim(s) between lower-left frame and lower-left engine
mount pad. Slotted shims, if used, may be stacked together but must be installed
between unslotted shims and safetied. See Figure 6-2A.

6. Torque engine-mount bolts per Section 1.320.

7. Remove right-side spark plug inspection panel. Loosen upper-right and lower-right
engine mount bolts. Leaving left engine mounts torqued, install selected shim(s)
between lower-right frame and lower-right engine mount pad.

6.610 LOW-POWER CHECKLIST

When low engine power output is suspected, use the following checklist to verify:

1. Aircraft gross weight is not exceeded. Weigh aircraft if it was not weighed at last
overhaul.

2. Engine oil pressure, oil temperature, and CHT are within limits.

3. MAP gage indicates ambient pressure (engine off).

4. Proper grade of fuel per Pilot's Operating Handbook.

5. Main rotor blades are clean and smooth (no rough paint).

6. Exhaust is unobstructed.

7. Main rotor blade trim tabs are not excessively bent.

8. Carburetor heat valve closes fully in OFF position.

9. Induction system is unobstructed. Air filter and both inlet hoses (ambient and
carburetor heat) are clean, undamaged, unobstructed, and do not collapse in
flight. Carburetor-to-engine gasket is correct size.

10. Engine tachometer indication is correct. Verify with digital tachometer (such as
found in newer dynamic balancing equipment) or similar equipment.

11 . Oil screens or filter do not exhibit metallic debris consistent with internal engine
damage.

12. Proper cylinder compression (both leakage and direct) per Lycoming
recommendations.

13. Mixture neither excessively lean nor rich. Compare fuel flow. Verify fuel filter
cleanliness, check spark plug indications, check carburetor throttle body-to-float
bowl screw security per Lycoming SB 366.

14. Proper spark plug type and condition.

15. Proper magneto-to-engine timing. Verify engine-left (helicopter-right) magneto is


not operating in retard mode when ignition switch is in BOTH position (disconnect
retard terminal after starting engine and compare hover MAP indications; lesser
hover MAP with retard terminal disconnected indicates magneto was operating
retarded).

16. Proper fuel flow and unobstructed carburetor fuel inlet screen. Perform fuel-flow
check per Section 1 2.

17. If primer-equipped, verify fuel is not leaking past primer pump (ensure primer
pump is locked) and air is not leaking past fittings in cylinder head.

I 6.610 LOW-POWER CHECKLIST (cont'd)

18. Carburetor or fuel control throttle lever contacts full-throttle stop (collective must
be raised slightly).

1 9. Carburetor or fuel control mixture arm contacts stop when mixture control is in
full-rich position and mixture arm does not exhibit springback at extremes of travel
when disconnected from control cable/safety spring (due to internal binding).

20. No induction/MAP system leaks. To check MAP system, disconnect MAP line at
cylinder head fitting and apply suction with syringe until MAP gage indicates 10
inches Hg. Monitor gage for one minute; indication should rise no more than 1
inch Hg. Verify carburetor throttle shaft bushings are not worn; check both axial
and radial clearances. Intake leaks can also occur due to loose intake pipe
connections in oil sump and/or cracked sump runner tubes. For 0-320-B2C
engines only, incorrect thin-flanged intake pipes P/Ns 61363, 61364, or 61365
used in place of correct P/Ns LW-16728, LS-16729, and LW-16730 can cause
leaks in conjunction with deep-counterbore flange P/N 74360.

21 . Proper exhaust valve guide clearance per Lycoming SB388B.

22. Proper dry-tappet clearance per Lycoming Overhaul Manual.

23. With lifters pumped up (valve lash removed), each intake valve should exhibit
equal travel during opening when measured with a dial indicator. Similarly, each
exhaust valve should exhibit equal travel during opening. Unequal travel indicates
damaged cam lobe(s).

24. Proper magneto internal timing.

25. Carburetor float bowl fuel level correct.

26. Cylinder head intake port has radiused edge where inlet airflow turns 90 degress
toward valve. If no radius exists, contact Lycoming Technical Support.

27. Proper crankshaft-to-camshaft timing: As #1 piston passes TDC on compression


stroke, the #2 intake valve should open while the #2 exhaust valve closes (valve
overlap position).

28. If 0-320/0-360/0-540 engine exhibits low-power immediately after overhaul,


verify correct 8.5:1 compression ratio piston P/N 75089 has been installed
(instead of 7.0:1 low compression piston P/N 75413).

7.000 Drive Train


7.001 Introduction
This section contains procedures for removal, installation, replacement, and maintenance
of drive train components.
7.002 Description (See Figure 7-1)
A steel-coated multiple-grooved aluminum pulley, known as the lower sheave, is bolted
directly to the crankshaft. Two banded-pair V-belts transmit power to the anodized
aluminum upper sheave; a steel-coated upper sheave is optional. The upper sheave has
an overrunning sprag clutch, also known as a freewheeling unit, in its hub through which
passes the clutch shaft. The clutch shaft receives power from the sprag clutch and
transmits power forward to the main rotor gearbox and aft to the tail rotor driveshaft.
Flexible couplings are located at input to the main rotor gearbox and at each end of the
long tail rotor driveshaft. The main rotor gearbox contains a single-stage spiral-bevel gear
set which is splash-lubricated. The tail rotor driveshaft has no hanger bearings but has
a lightly-loaded damper bearing. The tail rotor gearbox also contains a splash-lubricated
spiral-bevel gear set. Tail rotor gearbox input and output shafts are made of stainless
steel to resist corrosion. Other shafts throughout drive system are made of alloy steel.

7.230 Clutch Sheave Alignment
1. Check engine shimming installation limits per § 6.130. Ring-gear-to-frame dimension
must be within specified limits before sheave alignment is checked.
2. Engage clutch (fan and scroll must be installed).
3. Check clutch shaft angle per § 7.240.
4. Hold MT331-4 sheave alignment bar against aft face of lower sheave extending bar
upward to horizontal center line of clutch assembly upper sheave.
5. Measure left and right gaps per Figure 7-5. Both gaps must be within noted limits and
left gap must be 0.010–0.030 inch larger than right gap. If left gap is not 0.010–
0.030 inch larger than right gap, adjust clutch lateral centering per § 7.250 or adjust
engine shims.
If either gap exceeds maximum limit, clutch assembly is too far forward or engine is
too far aft. Engine may be moved forward by removing an equal amount of shims from
each engine mount, subject to § 6.130 minimum shim requirement. Alternatively,
the clutch assembly may be moved aft by shimming at forward flex plate and/or
adjusting A907 yoke length. Shimming is accomplished by installing a maximum of
one AN960-516L washer between A947-1 flex plate and both arms of A907 and/or
A908 yoke; AN960-516L washers installed on either yoke will decrease right and left
gaps an amount equal to the washer’s thickness. A907-4 and -5 yokes each have two
sets of mounting holes which change effective yoke length by 0.120 inch. A907-5
yoke is 0.120 inch or 0.240 inch longer than long position of A907-4 yoke, depending
on mounting holes used. Right and left gaps will decrease by 0.120 inch with each
0.120 inch increase in A907 yoke length.
If either gap is smaller than minimum limit, clutch assembly is too far aft or engine is
too far forward. Engine may be moved aft by adding an equal amount of shims to each
engine mount, subject to § 6.130 maximum shim allowance. Alternatively, clutch
assembly may be moved forward by removing shims (if installed) at forward flex plate
and/or adjusting A907 yoke length. Removing AN960-516L washers from between
A947-1 flex plate and both arms of A907 and/or A908 yoke will increase both gaps
an amount equal to washer’s thickness. A907-4 and -5 yokes each have two sets of
mounting holes which change effective yoke length by 0.120 inch. A907-4 yoke is
0.120 inch or 0.240 inch shorter than short position of A907-5 yoke, depending on
mounting holes used. Right and left gaps will each increase by 0.120 inch with each
0.120 inch decrease in A907 yoke length.

CAUTION
Disengage clutch prior to shimming A947-1 flex plate.

A907-4 yoke replaces A907-1 and -2 yokes. A907-5 yoke replaces A907-3 yoke and
includes an additional set of mounting holes.

Page 7.20 Chapter 7 Drive Train OCT 2018


7.230 Clutch Sheave Alignment (continued)
6. Check intermediate flex plate shimming per § 7.330 if shims were added or removed
at A947-1 flex plate or if A907 yoke position changed.
7. Adjust V-belt guide per Figure 7-8A.
8. Check throttle correlation rigging per § 10.150 and adjust as required.

NOTE
Shortening clutch lateral centering strut simultaneously increases
left gap and decreases right gap. Lengthening clutch lateral
centering strut decreases left gap and increases right gap.

7.250 Clutch Lateral Centering


1. Clutch actuator fully engaged.
2. Check sheave alignment on left and right side per Figure 7-5.
3. To facilitate sheave alignment, left gap should be 0.010 to 0.030 inch larger than right
gap. Clutch lateral centering strut may be adjusted (with clutch engaged) to obtain
gap differential provided following clearances are met:
a. Minimum 0.030 inch between clutch actuator motor and upper frame tube.
b. Minimum 0.150 inch between V-belts and right side frame guard (actuator engaged).
4. If alignment cannot be adjusted within required measurements, contact Robinson

7.340 Checking Tail Rotor Drive Shaft Runout

Excessive tail rotor drive shaft runout can cause intermediate flex coupling or
damper assembly failure. To check runout:

a} Remove tailcone inspection covers on tailcone right side. Engage clutch.

b) Assemble MT260-6 tool and suitable dial indicator.

NOTE

The dial indicator included in the Robinson MT122


bolt stretch gauge can be used.

c) Insert dial indicator through farthest aft inspection hole on right side of tailcone.
Press dial indicator firmly against tailcone with extension riding on drive shaft.

d) Have someone rotate drive train at A 166 clutch shaft at least three full
revolutions. Dial indicator may vary somewhat with each revolution so it will be
necessary to take an average.

e) Repeat procedure in steps c) and d) at next inspection hole forward.

f) Remove extension from MT260 tool and, using longer extensions, check drive
shaft at remaining inspection holes.

g) Maximum runout at any location must not exceed 0.025 inch. If runout is
excessive, drive shaft must be repaired or replaced.

7.350 Two-Piece Tail Rotor Driveshaft

a) The two-piece tail rotor driveshaft consists of a


B224-1 driveshaft, B223-l, -2, -3, or -4 yoke assembly,
A041-1 damper bearing assembly, A553-2 block and two
A207-4 blocks. See Figure 7-12A.

b) The A041-1 damper bearing assembly is field replaceable


only with the two-piece tail rotor driveshaft.

c) The B224-l driveshaft is produced in one length only.


The overall length of the driveshaft assembly may be
adjusted with various length B223 yokes. The yokes
are produced in .150 inch length increments. See
Figure 7-12B.

d) Al97-1 one-piece driveshaft assemblies may be replaced


with the two-piece driveshaft per the table below:

One-Piece Overall B223 Yoke


Driveshaft Length Req. w/
(inches) B224 D.S.

A197-7 140.25 -1
Al97-4 140.40 -2
Al97-5 140.55 -3
Al97-6 140.70 -4
Al97-l Varies As Required

e) If the length of the driveshaft cannot be measured or


is unknown, use the following procedure to determine
the correct B223 yoke to use:

1. Install the intermediate flexplate onto the


Al95-l yoke on the clutch shaft. For this
measurement procedure, no shims should be
installed between the beveled washers or the
bonded washers on the flexplate and the
Al95-1 yoke.

2. Install the A553-2 block into the forward end


of the driveshaft. Align the two bolt holes
in the block and the driveshaft.

3. Consult the appropriate section of this manual


for the following installation steps. Connect
the B224-1 driveshaft to the aft flexplate and
the tail rotor gearbox input yoke. Install the
gearbox on the tailcone. Connect the damper as-
sembly to the clip on the inside of the tailcone.
Install the tailcone on the upper steel tube
frame. Engage the actuator.

ROBINSON MAINTENANCE MANUAL MOCELR22

7.350 Two-Piece Tail Rotor Driveshaft (cont'd)

4. Hold the driveshaft centered on the intermediate


flexplate. Measure the distance from the flexolate
to the center of the forward hole on the driveshaft.
Subtract .032 inches from this measurement, which is
the thickness of the beveled washer or the bonded
washer. This will be the Calculated Dimension.
Select the B223 yoke which is closest to but does
not exceed the Calculated Dimension. Shims may be
added or subtracted between the tail rotor gearbox
and the tailcone aft casting to adjust the driveshaft-
to-flexplate dimension. See Figure 7-12B. The
difference between the Calculated Dimension and the
length of the B223 yoke will be taken up with shims
per Section 7.330 of this manual.

5. Install A553-2 block in yoke end of T.R. driveshaft.


Removal of primer to install block is allowed. If
primer is removed, swab wet primer inside the T.R.
driveshaft before installing block. After instal-
lation, prime inside of T.R. driveshaft to cover
tube and seal edges of block.

6. Install the correct length B223 yoke onto the forward


end of the driveshaft. Align the two bolt holes.
Install two NAS1304-21 bolts with a washer and a
B207-4 block under the bolt heads and the nuts.
Torque the nuts to 100 inch-pounds plus nut drag
(add 10% for the total torque-110 inch-pounds).
Install and tighten the palnuts.

7. Use Zinc Chromate or epoxy primer to form fillets


at all joints for sealing moisture out. Paint as
required.

FLIGHT CONTROLS

8.000 Flight Controls

8.001 Introduction

This section covers removal and installation procedures for cyclic controls, collective
controls, tail rotor controls and their related components.

WARNING

Assembly of flight controls is critical and requires inspection


by a qualified person. If a second person is not available, the
installer must take a 5-minute break prior to inspecting flight
control connections he has assembled.

8.002 Description (See Figures 8-1 and 8-2)

Dual controls are standard equipment and all primary controls are actuated through push-
pull tubes and bellcranks. Bearings used throughout the control system are either sealed
ball bearings or have self-lubricated Teflon liners.

Flight controls are conventional. The cyclic stick appears to be different but the grip
moves the same as in other helicopters due to the free hinge at the center pivot. The
cyclic grip is free to move vertically, allowing the pilot to rest his forearm on his knee if
he chooses.

The collective stick is also conventional with a twist grip throttle control. When the
collective is raised, the throttle is opened by an interconnecting linkage. An electronic
governor makes minor throttle adjustments required to maintain RPM.

8.100 Cyclic Controls

8.110 Cyclic Assembly

8.111 Removal of Cyclic Assembly

a. Remove left seat back, center horizontal and vertical panels.

b. Remove collective assembly per § 8.211.

c. Remove screws holding mixture and carburetor heat control cable covers to cyclic
box cover.

d. Remove roll pin from cyclic friction knob and remove knob.

e. Unscrew right trim knob from trim shaft.

f. Remove screws holding cyclic box cover to cyclic box and to side panels.

8.130 Cyclic Lateral (Right) Trim

The function of the cyclic lateral trim spring is to remove


the left stick force in cruise conditions. It is actuated by
pulling up on the black knob located forward of the cyclic stick.
The trim spring (two sizes available) may be changed or shimmed
to create the force necessary to balance the cyclic control
laterally. This usually is required after a main rotor blade
change. Use the following procedures to remove, change, shim
and replace the trim spring assembly:

8.131 Right Trim Spring Assembly Removal

a) Remove right trim knob.

b) Remove cyclic friction knob.

c) On the in-flight adjustable lateral trim assemblies,


remove the lateral trim adjustment knob located on the
left side of the console.

d) Remove four (4) attaching screws holding the power-


plant control cables (mixture and carb heat) .

e) Remove cyclic box cover attaching screws.

f) Disconnect cyclic box cover post light at disconnect.

g) Disconnect right trim assembly attach bolt.

h) Firmly grasp the spring assembly, tip the cyclic stick


to the right to relieve some of the spring pressure.
Pull up and to the right to remove the assembly.

8.132 Right Trim Spring Assembly Installation

a) Move the cyclic stick to the right to relieve some of


the spring tension for installation. Firmly grasp the
spring assembly and insert the right trim spring cap
flush into the left keel panel while ins~alling the

8.140 Selecting Longitudinal Elastic Trim Cord


The Elastic Trim Cord is used to cancel out most longitu-
dinal stick forces during cruise flight.
If the cyclic grip moves forward in cruise flight, a weaker
elastic trim cord is required. If the cyclic stick grip
moves aft in cruise flight, a stronger elastic trim cord
is required.
a) Remove the elastic trim cord per Section 8.141 and
determine the strength of that cord; either by the
I.D. tag attached or by the diameter of the cord and
the length of cord from inner lock ring of one ena--
to inner lock ring at the other end.
NOTE
The R22 parts catalog lists
the elastic trim cords by part
number and dash numbers also
length, diameter and (force)
load when installed.

b) Following the statement above, and the amount of addi-


tional force required to keep the cyclic centered for
level cruise flight, select an appropriate elastic
trim cord.
c) Install per Section 8.142.
d) Test fly helicopter to determine if proper cord was
selected; repeat above procedure as required to find
cord which will balance longitudinal cyclic stick
forces.

ROBINSON MAINTENANCE MANUAL MOCELR22

8.230 RPM Governor System

The governor system senses engine RPM and applies corrective input forces to the
throttle; when RPM is low, governor increases throttle and vice versa. Throttle inputs
are through a friction clutch which can be easily overridden by the pilot. The governor
is active from 80% - 115% engine RPM and can be switched on or off by the pilot
using the toggle switch on the end of the right seat collective control.

The governor system is designed to assist the pilot in controlling the RPM in the
normal operating range. It may not prevent over- or under-speed conditions generated
by aggressive flight maneuvers. Within the active range there is a 3%-wide deadband
from 102.5% - 105.5% where the governor will not take action provided the rpm is
steady.

The governor system consists of the following major components:

1. The 8286-2 governor controller, a solid-state analog-circuit control unit mounted


behind the left seat back. The controller senses engine RPM via tachometer points
in the engine right magneto (helicopter left side) and provides a corrective signal to
the governor assembly.

2. The 824 7-5 governor assembly, attached to the collective stick assembly behind
the left seat back. When activated by the governor controller, the governor
gearmotor and attached worm gear drives a friction clutch connected to the
throttle.

8.231 Governor Controller Removal

1 . Remove left seat back assembly to gain access to controller.

WARNING

No external adjustment of controller is available. If controller


fails to operate correctly, remove and return it to RHC.

2. Disconnect electrical connector.

3. Remove four screws securing governor controller to left seat back assembly.

8.232 Governor Controller Installation

1 . Secure governor controller to left seat back assembly.

2. Connect electrical connector.

3. Install seatback panel. If fuel valve handle has a hexagonal mating recess,
perform fuel flow check per Section 12.260.

8.233 Governor Assembly Removal

The governor assembly is behind the left seat back assembly, attached to the
collective stick.

1. Remove collective stick per Section 8.211.

2. Remove three screws securing governor assembly to collective stick.

3. Remove bolt securing governor assembly's output arm to link assembly.

WARNING

No adjustment of friction clutch is permitted. No field


replacement of gearmotor is permitted. If friction setting is
incorrect, or if gearmotor operates incorrectly, remove governor
assembly and return to RHC.

8.234 Governor Assembly Installation

1. Connect governor assembly's output arm to link assembly. Ensure:

a. NAS6603-7 bolt head toward collective grips and no washer under bolt
head.

b. AN960-1 0 or NAS620-1 0 washer between governor output arm and rod


end.
I
c. AN960-1 OL washer between rod end and nut. Torque nut and palnut per
Section 1.320.

NOTE

Link assembly length must be 2.47-2.53 inches rod end center-


to-center.

2. Ensure governor assembly's output arm points upward towards collective's


throttle connecting rod. Attach governor assembly to collective stick.
Torque NAS1351-4-28P screw per Section 1.320. Torque both AN503-8-4
screws to 27 in.-lb and safety wire with 0.020 inch diameter safety wire.

3. Rotate throttle grips. Verify smooth operation and no interference.

4. Install collective stick per Section 8.212.

8.239 Governor Troubleshooting

The majority of governor problems are caused by the engine's right (helicopter left
side) magneto tachometer contact assembly (points) being out of adjustment or
faulty. Refer to TCM Master Service Manual for tachometer contact assembly
installation and adjustment.

When operating in the 80%-115% active range, the R22 governor will attempt to
maintain engine rpm at 104%±1.5% (102.5%-105.5%). The edges of this
governed 3%-rpm wide window, called a "deadband", may be detected as follows:

1. Start engine and run-up helicopter per Pilot's Operating Handbook.


Collective must remain fully down during this and following steps.

Change 22: MAR 2004 Page 8.34C


ROBINSON MAINTENANCE MANUAL MOCELR22

,8.239 Governor Troubleshooting (cont'd)

2. Gently hold throttle and very slowly increase rpm (do not exceed 1 07%).
Note and record engine rpm indication when governor input (subtle throttle
resistance) is encountered.

3. Gently hold throttle and very slowly decrease rpm (do not go below 97%).
Note and record engine rpm indication when governor input (subtle throttle
resistance) is encountered.

4. Subtract Step 3 indication from Step 2 indication. Result should be


approximately 3%.

A result of 3% but centered beyond 1 04 ± 0. 5% is indicative of a governor


controller problem.

Results greater than 3% but still centered on 104% are usually indicative of
excessive throttle linkage friction or insufficient governor friction.

Check throttle friction by disconnecting overtravel spring assembly upper rod end
from C342 arm and attaching a spring scale to the rod end. With carburetor
throttle arm in idle position, slowly pull up overtravel spring assembly with spring
scale and note maximum 4 pounds moving friction prior to full-open throttle at
carburetor. Excessive throttle linkage friction can be caused by binding rod ends,
control interference, carburetor throttle shaft bushing elongation, or binding
carburetor accelerator pump (typically binds in one direction only).

Check governor friction with collective down, collective friction on, overtravel
spring assembly upper rod end disconnected from C342 arm, and C342 arm
positioned horizontally. Attach a spring scale to hole in C342 arm and, with scale
held tangential to arm, slowly pull on scale and note both the breakaway and the
moving frictions. Breakaway friction is typically 0-0.5 pound greater than moving
friction. Breakaway friction 1 pound or greater than moving friction may indicate
damaged or contaminated governor friction clutch. Moving friction must be
minimum 8 pounds until arm stops moving. Insufficient moving friction can be
caused by wear, contamination, or loss of spring rate.

Proper governor operation requires a minimum 2:1 ratio of governor friction-to-


throttle linkage friction.

Erratic operation is usually indicative of tachometer contact assembly problems or


wiring damage. Wiring damage may be evidenced by crushing, pinching, or
abrasion, all of which can result in grounding of one or both center wire
conductor(s) to the shielding or to structure. Tachometer contact assembly
problems may be caused by contamination, oxidation, or loose contact(s), in
addition to installation or assembly errors.

Contamination can be caused by over-lubrication of cam follower felt, engine oil


leaking past oil seal, or moisture intrusion thru vent plug. Oxidation can be caused
by an obstructed vent plug or by engine oil leaking past the oil seal.

When flying in turbulence, or if the engine is lightly "loaded" (drive train almost
freewheeling), a fluctuating MAP indication is expected.

Any loose connection in throttle linkage (including worn carburetor throttle shaft
bushings) will result in both RPM & MAP oscillations.

1. Assemble fork or yoke assembly. Torque NAS6604 (or NAS1304) bolt per Section
1.320.

2. Place a torque wrench on bolt head at fork or yoke pivot point. The force required to
pivot assembly must be 5 in-lbs or less.

3. To reduce pivot force for A 139-1 bearings:

a. Disassemble fork or yoke assembly.

b. Ream inner bores of A 139-1 bearings; a very slight oversized bore may be
required.

c. Reassemble yoke or fork assembly. Recheck pivot force.

4. To reduce pivot force for interference-fit 8115-1 bearings:

CAUTION

Do not rotate bearing with a drill motor to reduce pre-load as this


may damage Teflon® liner and cause premature failure.

a. Place a 7/16 inch socket against outer race of the bearing installed with graphite
solution. Tap bearing lightly to relieve axial preload caused by torquing bolt. The
pivot force should drop with this slight movement of bearing race. If outer bearing
race is moved too far inward, bearing will be preloaded in opposite direction and
pivot assembly will have to be disassembled so that bearing can be pressed back
into its original position. The pivot assembly will have to be reassembled and
retorqued as described above.

b. If pivot force is still too high, replace interference-fit bearing yoke or fork assembly
with a adhesive-secured slip-fit bearing yoke or fork assembly.

c. Reassemble yoke or fork assembly per Figure 8-10. Recheck pivot force.

1. Align tail rotor blades with same pitch link from which removed. Install tail
rotor on tail rotor gearbox output shaft, and verify counterclockwise direction
of rotation (when viewed from left side of aircraft).

2. See Figure 9-11. Verify blades cone toward tail rotor gearbox.

3. Install tail rotor teeter hinge bolt, washers, and nut. Tighten nut until elastomeric
bearing metal spacers contact output shaft (See Figure 9-1 2).

4. Connect pitch links to blades and torque fasteners per Section 1 .320.

5. See Figure 10-7. With tail rotor horizontal, tape a tracking stick to tailcone at
blade tip.

NOTE

A tracking stick can be made from sheet metal approximately


1 inch wide x 12 inches long with a 90 degree bend 2 inches
from one end.

6. Rotate drive train at clutch shaft. Mark tracking stick where forward drain hole
of each blade tip passes.

7. Reposition (teeter) tail rotor on output shaft until both blade tips pass the
same point on the tracking stick ± 0.125 inch.

8. Torque teeter hinge bolt per Section 1 .330. Recheck track per step 6 and
adjust per step 7, if required, and retorque teeter hinge bolt.

9. When track is satisfactory, install pal nut on teeter hinge bolt, torque per
Section 1 .330, and torque stripe per Figure 2-1.

10. Remove tracking stick.

11. Teeter tail rotor back and forth. Verify teeter hinge bolt, bearing metal spacers,
washers, and nuts remain stationary when tail rotor is teetered.

WARNING

Movement of teeter hinge bolt, washer(s), spacer(s), or nut(s)


indicate insufficient clamp-up, which can result in Joss of tail
rotor.

12.1nstall urethane bumper, washer, and nut. Torque nut per Section 1.330, and
torque stripe per Figure 2-1.

9.214 Tail Rotor Hub Spherical Bearing Replacement

NOTE

Some early-model tail rotors have one hub bearing swaged


into hub. This bearing is nonreplacable and, if worn, hub
assembly must be replaced.

1. Remove tail rotor per Section 9.210.

2. Mark hub per Figure 9-13.

3. Loosen four blade retaining bolts. Remove two center bolts securing hub
between hub plates and remove hub (see Figure 9-13).

4. See Figure 9-13A. Press out worn bearing(s).

5. Clean hub bore, removing old primer or metal shavings which might prevent
bearings from seating at bottom of bores.

CAUTION

Bearings are a slight press fit in hub bores. Inspect bores


for fretting. If fretting is found, tail rotor hub assembly is
UNAIRWORTHY.

6. See Figure 9-13B. Using special tool MT201, install bearings into hub as
follows:

NOTE

Hub may be heated to 170°F maximum to ease bearing


insertion and help prevent installation damage.

Apply Section 1.450-approved primer to original primed bore. Bearing


is to be installed to bottom of hub bore. Apply primer or A257-7
lubricant to remaining bore and install bearing flush with top of hub. If
bearing is installed too far, spacers and hub will not fit over gearbox
output shaft.

NOTE

Install tail rotor without delay if using primer in both bearing


bores.

7. Reinstall hub between hub plates per reference mark (see Figure 9-13).
Torque two center hub and four blade retaining bolts per Section 1.320,

RIGGING, TRACK AND BALANCE

10.000 Rigging, Track and Balance

10.001 Introduction

This section contains the procedures necessary to rig the main rotor flight controls,
tail rotor flight controls and throttle correlation. The track and balance procedures in
this section are to be used in conjunction with Chadwick-Helmuth balancing equipment
instructions.

10.002 Rod End Adjustment Procedures For Rigging

The following procedure is a standard for the adjustment of rod ends on the R22 helicopter.

1. Loosen the palnut and jamnut on the rod end.

2. Screw the rod end in or out of the push-pull tube or pitch link as required to obtain the
proper rigging adjustment.

3. After adjustment of the rod end, check the witness hole in the push-pull tube or pitch
link to ensure the rod end is installed far enough to cover the hole. This should be
checked using a piece of .020” safety wire. The safety wire must not pass through
the witness hole into the push-pull tube or pitch link.

4. Align the rod ends on both ends of the push-pull tube or pitch link so they will have
maximum misalignment clearance with the bellcrank clevis or arm (both rod ends
must move “stop to stop”). Collective rigging settings are made by readjusting the
total length of the pitch links. Adjustments (turns on the upper rod end or hex portion
of the pitch link) to each pitch link will be the same. The pitch link length may be
adjusted in three ranges; coarse, medium and fine. Adjustments are made as follows:

a. Coarse length adjustments to the length are made by rotating the coarse-threaded
section of the hex portion of the pitch link (the upper rod end is disconnected, the
lower rod end remains connected). Loosen the jamnut on the coarse threads only.
Increase blade angle by unscrewing the hex from the lower pitch link. Decrease
the angle by screwing the hex portion into the barrel. One full turn changes the
blade angle by approximately .72 degrees.

b. Medium length adjustments are made by rotating the upper rod end only. Disconnect
the rod end from the blade and loosen the rod end jamnuts. Increase blade angle
by unscrewing the rod end from the hex portion of the pitch link. Decrease the
angle by screwing the rod end into the hex. One full rod end turn changes the
blade by approximately .48 degrees.

c. The fine length adjustments are made by rotating only the hexagonal portion of the
pitch link. The upper and lower rod ends remain connected. Loosen the jamnuts
above the hex. Increase blade angle by screwing the hex out of the lower barrel.
Decrease blade angle by screwing the hex into the lower barrel. One full turn of
the hex portion changes the blade angle approximately .24 degrees.

5. Torque rod end jamnuts and palnuts per § 1.300.

OCT 2014 Chapter 10 Rigging, Track and Balance Page 10.1


10.100 Rigging

10.110 Main Rotor Flight Controls

10.111 Cyclic Controls

The cyclic control travel is non-adjustable and is controlled by A211-1 stop plate
attached to the cyclic box assembly.

NOTE

If the A121-1 push-pull tube length has been changed or the


length of the A205 fork was changed, they must be readjusted
to the dimensions shown in Figure 8-3.

a. Place the cyclic stick against the aft stop and the collective control full down.

b. Adjust the A121-3 push-pull tube to obtain a clearance of .130 inch between the
aft arm of the jack shaft and the main rotor gearbox upper cap flange.

Page 10.2 Chapter 10 Rigging, Track and Balance OCT 2014


ROBINSON MAINTENANCE MANUAL MOCEL R22

10.111 Cyclic controls (cont'd)


c) Check for clearance between the forward jackshaft
arm and the Al21-7 push-pull tube guide with col-
lective stick full up and cyclic stick full for-
ward. Minimum clearance is .125 inch.
d) Place the cyclic control in the neutral position.
This point is 8.3 inches to 'the right of full
left travel and at the mid-point of the total fore
and aft travel. (See Figure 10-1). Place the
collective control full down.
e) Apply full cyclic and collective friction.
NOTE
Care must be taken not to move
the cyclic control from the
neutral position.
10.112 Swashplate
a) With the cyclic and collective controls locked in
position per Section 10.111, adjust the Al21-7 and
Al21-5 push-pull tubes to obtain a constant clear-
ance from the A281-l flange.
The minimum clearance from the flange is 5/8 inches.
(See Figure 10-2) Nominal settin~ is 3/4 inches.
10.113 Collective Control
Since the collective slider stop is non-adjustable, this
check is to ensure full control travel is obtained and does
not interfere with the swashplate travel.
a) Lift the swashplate boot so the uniball and slider
tube may be observed.
b) Pull the collective control full up. The uniball must
not extend past the top of the slider tube more than
.060 inch. If this occurs, adjust the Al21-5 and
Al21-7 push pull tubes as follows:
1. Turn the upper rod ends of the Al21-5 and
Al21-7 push-pull tubes in equally to lower
the swashplate.
2. Recheck the uniball-slider tube clearance
per Step b above.
10.120 Main Rotor
The main rotor is rigged by determining the average blade
angle. Blade angle measurements are taken at the .75 radius
of the main rotor (or 37.75 inches in from the blade tip).

10.120 Main Rotor

The main rotor is rigged by determining average blade angle. Blade angle measurements
are taken at 0. 75 radius of main rotor at 37.75 inches in from blade tip.

Main rotor blade angles are measured using MT050-1 rigging fixture and a Keii-Strom
KS 11 3 propeller protractor or a comparable protractor (see Figure 1 0-4). Use following
procedure to set up for rigging:

1. Verify A205 forks at swashplate are set to proper length per Figure 10-3. Measuring
to bolt bore center lines, lower fork assembly should be 3.50 ± 0.03 inches and
upper fork assembly should be 3. 70 ± 0.03 inches.

2. Level rotorcraft per Section 1 .220 Method 2, Main Rotor Hub.

3. Place a tracking stick at end of one rotor blade and mark height of blade tip. Rotate
rotor 180° and mark height of opposite blade tip. Teeter main rotor as necessary
to obtain a main rotor track of ± 1 inch.

4. Zero propeller protractor to main rotor hub at location marked "Level Here". The
protractor must be placed parallel to teeter hinge bolt.

NOTE

When zeroing protractor, face or dial must always face one rotor
blade to avoid doubling of instrument error. Mark this blade
with a piece of tape. When making blade angle readings, face
or dial of protractor should always face marked blade.

5. Measure in from tip of each main rotor blade 37.75 inches and place masking tape
chord wise across each blade with center of tape over 37.75 inch mark.

WARNING

Use a grease pencil or soft marker to mark rotor blades. Ball


point pens or other sharp instruments can scratch blade skins~
causing cracks and fatigue failure of blade.

Mark each rotor blade with a different color designation, such as red or blue, to be
used in recording blade angles.

1. Place collective control full down. Place cyclic control in the neutral pos1t1on
laterally (8.3 inches to the right of full left travel) and hold against forward stop.

NOTE

Sand bags may be used to secure the cyclic control against the
forward stop to ensure it will not move.

2. Rotate blades so the pitch links are aligned with the longitudinal axis of the
helicopter. Place the tracking stick at one of the blade tips for reference when
rotating the rotor.

3. Forward longitudinal cyclic:

a. Measure blade angles and record below. Rotate rotor 180° and record blade
angles below.

tain aft cyclic control blade
angles, the forward cyclic must
be rechecked.

5. Left lateral cyclic:

a) Place the cyclic control in the neutral


position longitudinally (mid travel) and hold
the cyclic against the left stop.

b) Rotate the rotor until the pitch links are


aligned with the lateral axis of the heli-

fixture and propeller protractor.

NOTE
The MT050-1 fixture is placed on
top of the blade so it straddles
the tape at the 37.75 inch sta-
tion. The fixture must be held
tightly against the leading edge
to ensure accurate readings. The
face of the protractor must face
the marked blade when taking
readings. (See Section 10.120,
Step 2).

Record blade angles, then rotate rotor 180° and


again record angles. Adjust the pitch link of
each blade until the two blade angles are within
0.2 degrees of each other when the blade pitch link
is in the forward position. Check the blade angles
with each blade pitch link aft. These angles must
be within 0.2 degrees also.

I CAUTION l
For acceptable track, differences
between Blue and Red blade angles
must not exceed .4 degrees. If
the blade angles cannot be ad-
justed to within .4 degrees of
each other using the pitch links
they should be replaced.

NOTE

Pitch link jamnuts must be tight


to ensure accurate blade angle
measurements.

f) Adjustment of the blade angles is made using the


rod ends of the A121-17 push-pull tube. One
full turn of the rod end will change the blade
angles .42 degrees. Adjust the rod end as ne-
cessary to obtain 19.0 to 19.5 degrees.

g) Place the right pedal against its stop. Measure


the blade angles and record below.

NOTE

When pedal is placed against the


right stop, a new tracking mark
must be placed on the track stick
as the tip path will change due
to blade angle change.

i) If the blade angle range, for left and right
pedal settings, cannot be obtained using the
above procedure, this indicates the pedal travel
is either too great or too small. Use the
following procedure to check and adjust pedal
travel:
1) Add the right and left pedal angles together.
If the total is less than 28.6° the pedal
total travel is too amall. If the total
is greater than 30.1 the total travel is
too great.
2) To increase the total travel, lengthen the
Al21-9 and -11 push-pull tubes attached to
the tail rotor pedals.
3) To decrease the total travel, shorten the
A121-9 and -11 push-pull tubes.
NOTE
These changes should be made in
1/2 turn increments of the push-
pull tube rod ends.
4) Recheck the tail rotor blade angles per steps
e through h above.
j) Ensure all rod ends are installed properly by
checking the push-pull tube witness holes. Tight-
en all rod end palnuts and jamnuts. Torque stripe
all jamnuts.

10.230 Main Rotor Track and Balance Procedure

NOTE

Prior to installing balancing equipment, verify blades are clean


and smooth, rod ends & spherical bearings & scissors play are
within limits, correct upper (rotating) scissors friction, correct
swashplate tilting friction, and correct teeter and coning hinge
frictions. Verify Interrupter is opposite chord arm.

In-flight track and balance is accomplished using the following testing and adjustment
sequence:

1. Check main rotor track in a hover. When using Vibrex 177- or 8350- series
equipment, place Function knob in track position, RPM (flash rate) on Strobex to
424. Adjust track by shortening high blade pitch link per Section 10.232 to bring
track within 0.25 inch.

2. Check main rotor balance in a hover. For Vibrex 177- or 8350- series equipment,
place Function knob in "A" position, RPM on Phazor to 530. Adjust balance as
indicated by main rotor balance chart 0.2 IPS.

3. Fly the helicopter at 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, and 100 knots. Check track at each
airspeed and record.

WARNING

Do not exceed Vne of helicopter when checking in-flight track.

4. Make slight tab adjustment to correct for a climbing blade by bending trim tab down
per Section 10.233.

5. Repeat Steps 3 & 4 as required until track is within 3/8 inch at all airspeeds.

6. Readjust main rotor balance in an hover to no greater than 0.2 IPS.

7. Check autorotational RPM per Section 10.250. Adjust as required.

8. Evaluate collective trim, longitudinal cyclic trim, and lateral cyclic trim. Adjust as
required.

9. Check main rotor balance in an hover. Verify no greater than 0.2 IPS. Adjust as
required.
Change 25: JUN 2006 10.27
ROBINSON MAINTENANCE MANUAL MODEL R22

10.231 Main Rotor Balance Adjustments

Spanwise balance adjustments are made by adding or subtracting weight as


indicated by the balance chart. Weight is changed by removing the blade tip cover
and changing A298 tip weights. Fine adjustments may be made with AN960-1 0
or AN960-1 OL washers and also by trimming washers.

Coarse adjustment of chordwise balance is accomplished by shifting rotor hub


(see Section 9.124) as indicated on balance chart. Fine adjustment of chordwise
balance is accomplished by adding or subtracting A255-1 or -2 chord weights or
AN970-4 washers as indicated by balance chart. A maximum of two A255-2
weights (two A255-2 weights equal six A255-1 weights) may be installed.

Three A255-1 weights = One A255-2 weight

Eight AN970-4 washers = One A255-1 weight

10.232 Main Rotor Pitch Link Adjustment

Two adjustments can be made to change main rotor pitch link length. Coarse
adjustments are made by loosening the upper rod end jam nut, disconnecting the
rod end from the blade pitch horn, and turning the rod end up or down (one-half
turn of rod end changes track approximately 0.25 inch).

Fine adjustments are made by leaving the upper rod end connected to the pitch link
and loosening the rod end jam nut, loosening the barrel jam nut, and then screwing
the barrel up or down. One barrel revolution is equivalent to one-half turn of rod
end. Partial turns of the barrel can be made by counting the number of hex flats
rotated (see Figure 10-11) or by noting degrees of barrel rotation.

CAUTION
Check witness holes in pitch links after making an adjustment;
a piece of 0.020-inch diameter safety wire must not pass
through.

NOTE

To correct for a "climbing" blade condition (blade spread that


exceeds 3/8 inch with forward airspeed), bend high blade trim
tab down.
CAUTION

Do not use other helicopter manufacturers' trim tab bending


tools. Use of these tools will damage Robinson blades.
CAUTION

MT352-1 gage must contact trim tab trailing edge. If gage


does not contact tab trailing edge, tab is bent beyond limit.
CAUTION

Tighten MT526-1 or MT526-8 trim tab bending tool bolt to


bend tab; do not use tool as a lever.
CAUTION

Bend tab upward only when absolutely necessary; bending tab


upward can increase rotor vibration.
CAUTION

MT526-1 trim tab bending tool (for A016-4 [stainless steel


skin] blades) and MT526-8 trim tab bending tool (for A016-6
[aluminum skin] blades) are not interchangeable. Use of wrong
bending tool can result in blade damage. MT090-1 trim tab
bending tool (for earlier blades) is obsolete.

1. Using felt tip marker, ink mark main rotor blade trim tab per Figure 10-12. Mark
line with a measuring point in the center of the tab (approximate).

2. Position MT352-1 gage chordwise across blade upper surface and tab trailing edge.
Zero dial indicator on measuring point.

3. Position MT526-1 (trim tab bending tool (for A016-4 [stainless steel skin] blades)
or MT526-8 trim tab bending tool (for A016-6 [aluminum skin] blades) on tab per
Figure 10-12. Slide tool completely over tab until tool stops contact blade trailing
edge. Double-rib side of tool should contact tab upper surface to bend tab down.
Double-rib side of tool should contact tab bottom surface to bend tab up.

4. Tighten MT526 bending tool bolt to bend tab. Make slight bends and re-measure
tab with MT352-1 gage. Bend trim tab 0.015 inch (down) to effect dynamic
movement of main rotor blade tip approximately 0.2 inch (downward).

1
Refer to specific manufacturer S installation instructions when using balancing equipment
other than Chadwick-Helmuth 177- or 8350- series Vibrex system.

Install Chadwick-Helmuth equipment per Section 10.222. Set Function Knob on Balancer
to appropriate channel. Set balancer RPM Range knob to X1 0 and set RPM to 340. With
helicopter running/ with governor ON/ view tail rotor assembly with Strobex. Tune
Balancer while viewing target tape and adjusting RPM dial on Balancer. Record clock
angle and IPS on tail rotor balance chart. Adjust as required until balance is less than 0.2
IPS.

WARNING

Both tail rotor blades must be same part number

Spanwise balance adjustments for A029-1 square-tip blades made by adding/ subtracting,
or exchanging weights under the removable tip cover. Use A 134-1 or -2 tip weights or
AN960~8 or -8L washers. -8L washers may be trimmed as a very fine adjustment.

Span wise balance for A029-2 round-tip blades are made by exchanging different diameter
washers under nut securing blade's outboard retaining bolt. The bolt has sufficient
length to allow necessary span wise weight changes; verify 2-4 threads protruding past
nut after torquing per Section 1.320.

Chord wise balance is adjusted by adding, subtracting, or exchanging A 141-14/ A214-3,


AN960-416 or -416L washers under nut securing blade's pitch link attaching bolt.
Change pitch link, attaching bolt length as required for proper thread engagement (see
Section 1.300, refer to IPC for allowable lengths).

10.250 Autorotational RPM Adjustment

Use the following procedure for checking and adjusting autorotational RPM:

WARNING

Failure to properly adjust autorotational RPM (RPM too low) may


prevent the rotorcraft from achieving proper RPM at low gross
weights.

1. Perform autorotation RPM check at minimum practical weight. Calculate the takeoff
gross weight of the helicopter. Record the time on the hour meter.

Take-Off gross weight

Take-Off hourmeter reading

2. Set the altimeter to 29.92" Hg ( 1013.2 millibars) prior to performing the


autorotation. Autorotate with the collective control firmly held against the down
stop with an airspeed of 50 KIAS.

WARNING

Do not allow the rotor to overspeed when performing


autorotation checks. Progressively lengthen both main rotor
pitch link rod ends until full down collective can be obtained
without over-speeding the rotor.

Take at least 3 RPM readings at 500 to 1000 foot altitude intervals.

Record the following in-flight data:

ROBINSON MAINTENANCE MANUAL MODELR22

10.250 Autorotational RPM Adjustment (cont'd)

3. After each flight, refer to figure 10-15 and determine the following:

Elapsed Time
Test Gross
(in-flight Pounds of RPM
Weight
hourmeter Fuel Test% RPM Correction
Test (take-off gross Chart%
reading minus Consumed (from in-flight (chart% RPM
# weight RPM
data)
take-off (elapsed time minus Test%
minus fuel
hourmeter x 45 lbs/hr) RPM)
consumed
reading)

4. Adjust the pitch links based on the average RPM correction required. Lengthen both
pitch links to decrease RPM if the test RPM is greater than the chart RPM
(lengthening the pitch links one full rod end turn will reduce RPM 3%). Shorten
both pitch links to increase RPM. Be sure to adjust both pitch links exactly the
same so track will not be affected.

5. Repeat steps (a) through (d) as required until the RPM correction is ± 1% of chart
RPM. Determine chart RPM as follows:

a. Start at outside air temperature, and draw a vertical line up to the pressure
altitude.

b. Draw a horizontal line from the pressure altitude to the rotorcraft gross
weight at time of autorotation.

c. Draw a vertical line down from the gross weight to the required autorotation
RPM.

d. Make adjustment to the main rotor pitch links as required to obtain test
autorotation RPM within ± 1 % of chart RPM (see Figure 1 0-1 5).

CHAPTER 11

ENVIRONMENT CONTROL

11-00 Description
Fresh air vents are located in each door and in the nose. Door vents are opened and closed
using the knob near the vent door hinge. On earlier aircraft, pushing in on the knob will
seal and lock the door vents closed. On later aircraft, a rotating knob is provided to lock
the vents. For maximum ventilation, open door vents wide during hover but only one inch
or less during cruise. The rotating knob can be used to hold vents partially open.
The fresh air inlet in the nose is opened by pulling the cabin air knob on the console face.
Air from the nose inlet is directed along inside surface of the windshield for defogging as
well as for ventilation.
A cabin heater is optional. It consists of an air outlet mounted on the left side of the engine
cooling fan scroll, a muffler heat shroud, a control valve at the firewall, an outlet grille
forward of the pilot’s seat or forward of the tail rotor pedals, and interconnecting ducting.
Earlier heaters used an electric blower, located on the left side of the engine compartment,
and a blower switch, located on the ledge forward of the pilot’s seat, for air. A push-pull
control, located on the ledge forward of the pilot’s seat, actuates a valve which directs
heat either into the cabin or out an overboard discharge on the cabin underside.

NOTE
For earlier heaters that use an electric blower for air, the heater
shroud may be removed during warm seasons (when heater is
not in use) to prolong muffler life. Current production heaters
provide constant cooling air to muffler via the cooling fan scroll
and are designed to remain installed.

CHAPTER 12

FUEL SYSTEM

12.000 Description
Fuel system maintenance is specific to either bladder or all-aluminum tank installations (current
production aircraft have flexible bladders in aluminum enclosures while earlier aircraft use
all-aluminum tanks). Mechanics are advised to identify fuel tank installation type, and to
follow the appropriate maintenance procedures. Maintenance procedures for the carburetor or
engine fuel system accessories may be found in the appropriate manufacturer’s technical data.
The fuel system is gravity-flow (no fuel pumps) and includes a main tank, an auxiliary tank
(optional for all-aluminum tanks), a shut-off valve control located behind the left seat, and
a strainer (gascolator). Fuel tank air vents are located inside the mast fairing.
Plunger-style drain valves are provided for the gascolator and for each fuel tank sump. The
gascolator is located on the lower left side of the firewall. The drain valves for the auxiliary
tank and bladder-style main tank are located inside the cowl door below the auxiliary tank.
Plastic tubes attached to the valves allow fuel to be drained overboard.
Fuel samples are taken by pushing on the plunger(s). For all-aluminum main tanks, the
drain is located on the left side of the fuselage and is opened by pushing in on the plastic
tube. On newer helicopters, a glass tube stowed inside the upper, aft cowl door is provided
which may be used to catch the fuel samples. Fuel should be sampled from all three
locations prior to the first flight of the day and after refueling to verify no contamination
and correct grade.
The fuel gages are electrically operated by float-type transmitters in the tanks. When the
gages read E the tanks are empty except for a small quantity of unusable fuel. The low
fuel caution light is actuated by a separate electric sender located on the bottom of the
main tank.
The auxiliary tank is interconnected with the main tank and is located somewhat higher so
it will become empty first while fuel still remains in the main tank. The fuel shutoff valve
controls flow from both tanks to the engine.

CHAPTER 13

INSTRUMENT SYSTEM

13-00 Description
Standard primary instruments include an airspeed indicator, engine and rotor dual
tachometer, altimeter, manifold pressure gage, and magnetic compass. Engine gages
include an ammeter, oil pressure, oil temperature, cylinder head temperature, and fuel
quantity for main and aux (if installed) tanks. Also standard are a clock, a carburetor air
temperature gage, and a digital outside air temperature gage. An hourmeter is located on
the ledge just forward of the pilot’s seat.
For instrument panels with electronic flight displays, a P/N D327 light filter may be used to
reduce reflections in the windshield at night. The light filter is installed by clipping it to the
front of the display. Filter use is at pilot discretion.
The pitot-static system supplies air pressure to operate the airspeed indicator, altimeter,
and vertical speed indicator. The pitot tube is located on the front edge of the mast fairing.
The static source is located inside the aft cowling inboard of the cowl door hinge.
Water can be drained from pitot-static lines by removing the plastic drain plugs which are
accessible through the inspection panel on the underside of the cabin. Draining lines should
only be required if the airspeed indicator or altimeter appears erratic.
Pitot and static sources should be inspected frequently for bugs or other obstructions.

sensitive tape. Connect a medical syringe, with plunger withdrawn, to pitot tube
via flexible tubing.
3. Slowly apply pressure to pitot line by depressing syringe plunger until airspeed
indicator reads 70 knots (plunger will remain in place).
4. Gently tap airspeed indicator glass to remove friction effects.
5. If airspeed indication drops more than 10 knots in one minute, an unacceptable
leak is indicated. Slowly release pressure. Locate and repair any leak(s). Retest
after any repairs.

CAUTION
When jacking helicopter, use mechanical or locking hydraulic
jacks, when available. Unlocked hydraulic jacks are subject
to pressure-loss which can affect critical measurements during
leveling or cause a raised helicopter to become unstable.
CAUTION
Never jack helicopter in windy conditions.
CAUTION
Perform jacking on a clean, flat, hard surface free of water,
oil, solvent, grease, or residue that could cause equipment or
personnel to slip during jacking procedure.
CAUTION
Do not actuate jacks from underneath helicopter. Remain clear
of landing gear skid tubes when helicopter is raised.

A. Jacking
1. Two methods may be used to jack helicopter:

a. Refer to Figure 17-1. Place a foam-covered contour block under vertical


firewall. Install skid stand under tail. Place an appropriate capacity jack under
each end of contour block.

CAUTION
Contour block must be directly under vertical firewall to support
weight of helicopter.

b. Place an appropriate capacity jack under each (landing gear) aft cross tube,
one inch inboard of elbow fittings, and under the ground handling ball as
required.

CAUTION
Ground handling ball must slide unrestricted across a flat surface
during jacking. When weighing, verify ball is not under side
load which could produce an erroneous weight indication.

2. Position jack levers for convenient access and engage jacks. Sandbag jacks for
increased stability, as required.
3. Actuate jacks slowly and simultaneously (one person per jack recommended),
maintaining helicopter stability. Raise helicopter to required height (at least 4
inches off ground if removing landing gear).

CAUTION
Minimize personnel movement around raised helicopter.

B. Lowering

CAUTION
Skids spread as aircraft weight settles on landing gear.

1. Slowly and simultaneously (one person per jack recommended) lower each jack
ram, maintaining helicopter stability. Lower aircraft to ground.
2. Clear jacking equipment from area.

Page 18.4 Chapter 18 Weight and Balance OCT 2018


18-22 Weighing Procedure and Calculations

NOTE
• Arm is the distance in inches from datum.
• Datum is located 100 inches forward of main rotor centerline.
• CG (arm) is determined by dividing total moment by total weight.

1. Refer to § 18-20. Prepare helicopter for weighing per § 18-21.


2. Hoist helicopter per § 17-20 approximately one foot above the ground. Have one
person hold tail of helicopter while hoisting to stabilize helicopter.
3. With main rotor blades oriented approximately fore and aft, raise both blades off of
droop stops to allow hub to teeter freely. Raise tail slightly and allow to settle.
4. Refer to Figure 18-2. With aircraft hanging freely and steady, use a water level and
measure difference in vertical height between tail rotor gearbox centerline and cabin
belly at vertical firewall. Ensure no air bubbles in water level tube.
Record height difference: inches

5. Determine longitudinal center of gravity:


114.47 – [0.315 x (height difference from step 4)] = inches

6. Place a 1000-lb capacity (minimum) scale under each skid. Locate center of scales
approximately 10 inches forward of (ground handling wheel ) skid supports.
7. Lower helicopter until it rests entirely on scales. Helicopter must be well balanced
on scales before releasing tail. Be sure helicopter is level laterally by placing level on
center of aft landing gear cross tube.
8. Determine empty weight:
Right scale reading: lb
Left scale reading: + lb
Tare (leveling shims, hoist fixture, etc.): – lb
Empty weight: = lb

OCT 2018 Chapter 18 Weight and Balance Page 18.5


18-22 Weighing Procedure and Calculations (continued)
9. Determine CG with full fuel and minimum solo pilot:
a. Bladder tank(s):
i. With aux tank:
(CG from step 5) x (Empty weight from step 8) + 28495
=
(Empty weight from step 8) + 303 in.

ii. Without aux tank:


(CG from step 5) x (Empty weight from step 8) + 22064
=
(Empty weight from step 8) + 240 in.
b. All-aluminum tank(s):
i. With aux tank:
(CG from step 5) x (Empty weight from step 8) + 30180
=
(Empty weight from step 8) + 319 in.

ii. Without aux tank:


(CG from step 5) x (Empty weight from step 8) + 23011
=
(Empty weight from step 8) + 249 in.

10. If CG from step 9 is aft of aft limit (refer to R22 Pilot’s Operating Handbook [POH]
Section 2 for model-specific data), determine required nose ballast:
[CG from step 5 – (model’s aft limit)] x (Empty weight from step 8) – 2358
=
64.5 lb

11. Adjust weight and balance to correct for drained unusable fuel and ballast:
Longitudinal CG
Item Weight (lb) (arm, inches) Moment (in.-lb)
Multiply empty weight from
step 8 by CG from step 5 x =
Nose ballast: x 37.5 =
10.2*, 6.0**,
Unusable fuel (add): or 3.6*** x 100.0 =

* Bladder tanks
** All-aluminum tank(s) with aux tank
*** All-aluminum tank(s) without aux tank

Page 18.6 Chapter 18 Weight and Balance OCT 2018


18-22 Weighing Procedure and Calculations (continued)

CAUTION
CG with full fuel and minimum solo pilot weight must be at or
forward of aft CG limit.

12. Determine lateral center of gravity:


(Right scale reading – Left scale reading)
x 37 =
(Right scale reading + Left scale reading) in.

13. Determine lateral moment:


(Basic Empty Weight) x (lateral CG)= in.-lb

Page 19.6 Chapter 19 Ground Handling OCT 2018


19-20 Trailering

CAUTION

Trailering the R22 is not normally recommended. Most trailers


large enough to accommodate the helicopter are designed for
much heavier loads; the trailer’s springs and shock absorbers
will not function properly when lightly-loaded. Also, without
support, the tailcone can resonate with trailer vibrations,
subjecting the tailcone to greatly amplified loads.

If trailering is unavoidable, observe the following precautions:


1. Load trailer with ballast to an average weight the trailer is designed to carry.
2. Support the tailcone. Cushion support point(s) to prevent tailcone damage.
3. Perform one of the following options:
a. Remove main rotor blades per § 26-10. Pack blades in shipping crate.
b. Fabricate blade supports to unload droop stops. Position supports approximately
five feet from blade tips. Cushion support points to prevent blade damage.
4. Restrain tail rotor to prevent teetering.
5. Fuel helicopter per § 22-51.
6. Protect windshield, windows, rotor systems, and all fragile equipment from exposure
to highway debris and subsequent damage.
7. After trailering, perform 100-hour maintenance and inspection per § 2.400.

22-40 Clutch Actuator Upper and Lower Bearings
The actuator upper bearing is located on the clutch shaft, and the actuator lower bearing is
located on the fanshaft. Failure of either actuator bearing in flight could cause loss of power
to rotor system and result in a serious accident. Refer to § 2.110 for general indications
of bearing failure. In addition, just before failure of an actuator bearing, clutch light may
flicker (on and off in less than one second) constantly or illuminate for a longer time than
usual. Do not be confused with normal retensioning in flight (light on for up to 8 seconds,
then off). Flight should not be resumed until cause of abnormal clutch light illumination has
been determined.
Perform the following bearing inspections whenever an actuator bearing discrepancy is
suspected or fanwheel is removed:

Page 23.2 Chapter 23 Standard Practices OCT 2018


23-20 Lubrication

WARNING
Refer to Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and observe precautions
when working in proximity to hazardous materials.

Most bearings are sealed or self-lubricated and do not require periodic lubrication. Bearings
with scheduled lubrication intervals are listed in Table 1-1 (see Chapter 1).
Engine lubrication requirements are located in the R22 Pilot’s Operating Handbook, the
appropriate model Lycoming Operator’s Manual, and Lycoming Service Instruction No.
1014 (current revision).
Main and tail gearboxes require servicing when indicated by sight gage level. Additionally,
change gearbox oil and clean respective sight gage when oil becomes so dirty its level
cannot be determined.

WARNING
A257-2 oil is the only approved oil for use in gearboxes.

When installing a new or overhauled gearbox, drain and flush gearbox after the first 4
hours of flight or first chip light, whichever occurs first. Thereafter, change gearbox oil at
intervals listed in Table 1-1 (see Chapter 1).

OCT 2018 Chapter 23 Standard Practices Page 23.3


Given Symbols
Y = Unknown Y = Torque wrench setting
T = 135 in.-lb T = Torque applied to fastener
L = 10 in. L = Length of torque wrench

FIGURE 23-2 SHORTENING TORQUE WRENCH EFFECTIVE LENGTH

Page 23.4 Chapter 23 Standard Practices OCT 2018


23-30 Torque Requirements
A. Tool Calibration
Dimensions and tolerances given in this manual are critical. Calibrate measuring tools
per manufacturer’s recommendation at least once a year, when tool is dropped, misused,
or calibration is suspect. Measuring tools include torque wrenches, micrometers,
calipers, dial indicators, spring scales, protractors, and balancing equipment.

WARNING
Proper torque is critical. Always use calibrated wrenches and
undamaged, properly lubricated (where applicable) hardware.
Ensure clamping surfaces are clean, and clamp only bare metal
or wet-primed surfaces. Improper torque or dirty or painted
clamping surfaces may result in loss of clamp-up, hardware or
part damage, and premature failure.

B. Torque Value
Torque fasteners to standard dry values listed in § 23-32 unless otherwise specified.
If torque is applied by rotating bolt, increase torque value by 10% to account for
higher friction at bolt head and shank.
For example, the torque wrench setting for an NAS6605 bolt used with an MS21075
nutplate is determined as follows:

NAS6605 bolt (5 indicates 5/16 inch size) dry torque per § 23-32 240 in.-lb
Add 10% because torque must be applied at bolt head + 24 in.-lb
Torque wrench setting 264 in.-lb

C. Secondary Locking Mechanism


A secondary locking mechanism is required on all critical fasteners. B330 stamped
nuts (palnuts) serve as the secondary locking mechanism in most areas on the
helicopter, and are torqued per § 23-32. Palnuts must be replaced when removed.
The R22 Illustrated Parts Catalog (IPC) lists secondary locking mechanisms for specific
fasteners.

OCT 2018 Chapter 23 Standard Practices Page 23.5


23-30 Torque Requirements (continued)
D. Critical Fastener

CAUTION
D210-series nuts, which supersede MS21042L-series and
NAS1291-series nuts, are required on critical fasteners.
WARNING
Assembly of flight controls is critical and requires inspection
by a qualified person. If a second person is not available,
RHC recommends the installer take a 5-minute break prior to
inspecting flight control connections he has assembled.

A critical fastener is one which, if removed or lost, would jeopardize safe operation
of the helicopter. This includes joints in the primary control system, and non-fail-safe
structural joints in the airframe, landing gear, and drive system.

Page 23.6 Chapter 23 Standard Practices OCT 2018


23-30 Torque Requirements (continued)
E. Torque Requirements

CAUTION
Never substitute AN bolts for NAS bolts. NAS bolts have higher
tensile strength.

1. Any self-locking nut whose drag has deteriorated appreciably must be replaced.
Damaged hardware must be replaced.
2. Bolt and nut are to be clean and dry except when assembly procedure specifies
anti-seize or thread-locking compound.
3. If chattering or jerking occurs, disassemble and re-torque fastener.
4. If special adapters which change effective length of torque wrench are used, final
torque value must be calculated using formulas in Figures 23-1 and 23-2.
5. Unless otherwise specified, proper thread engagement requires:
a. If palnut is not required, one to four threads exposed beyond primary nut.
b. If palnut is required, two to four threads exposed beyond primary nut.
c. For B526-8 screws, one to five threads exposed beyond primary nut.

WARNING
Proper thread engagement ensures proper locking of fastener.
Exceeding maximum thread exposure beyond primary nut
may allow nut to seat against unthreaded shank, resulting in
insufficient joint clamping.

6. Refer to Part A. Torque wrenches must be calibrated annually, when dropped, or


when a calibration error is suspected.

23-31 Torque Stripe

WARNING
Refer to Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and observe precautions
when working in proximity to hazardous materials.

Refer to Figure 2-1. Lacquer-paint Torque Seal® is applied to all critical fasteners after
palnut installation in a stripe (“torque stripe”) extending from the fastener’s exposed
threads across both nuts and onto the component. Subsequent rotation of the nut or bolt
can be detected visually. Position torque stripes for maximum visibility during preflight
inspections. Approved Torque Seal® is listed in § 23-74.

OCT 2018 Chapter 23 Standard Practices Page 23.7


23-32 Standard Torques
NOTE
1. Torque values are in inch-pounds unless otherwise specified.
2. Torque values include nut self-locking torque.
3. Increase torque values 10% if torqued at bolt head.
4. Wet indicates threads lubricated with A257-9 anti-seize.
5. For elbow and tee fittings which require alignment, torque to indicated
value, then tighten to desired position.
6. Tolerance is ± 10% unless range is specified.
7. Unless otherwise specified, thread sizes 8-32 and smaller are not used for
primary structure and do not require control of torques.

23-40 Non-Destructive Testing

WARNING
Refer to Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and observe precautions
when working in proximity to hazardous materials.

23-41 Magnetic Particle Inspection


Ferromagnetic steel parts are inspected for structural defects using magnetic particle
inspection. Steel parts covered by this specification are inspected per ASTM E1444 wet
continuous process with ultra-violet light. Applicable requirements and limitations of the
above standard apply.
Procedures and equipment used to perform the inspection shall conform to requirements of
ASTM E1444. Produce magnetization using direct current. A magneto test penetrameter
or a 30–60 gauss meter is used to verify the direction and effectiveness of all magnetic
fields produced. Whenever possible, parts shall be inspected with both circular and
longitudinal magnetization, but at least in two directions at right angles to each other.
Minimum duration of application is ½ second.
Pre- and post-solvent clean parts using PCBTF or similar solvent. Demagnetizing is
accomplished using AC±3 oersteds maximum. Verify part is demagnetized using a magnetic
field strength indicator which does not exceed an absolute value above three gauss.
Area of part to be examined, position of part, directions of magnetization to be used and
method of establishing the magnetization are presented within the inspection section of
individual parts. Record the size and location of all rejectable indications.
A. Inspection Criteria
Parts (except gears) which are inspected by magnetic particle inspection shall be
accepted or rejected according to the following criteria:
Acceptable indications:
yy Indications smaller than 0.015 inch are not considered rateable.
yy Indications caused by sharp changes in cross‑section or part geometry.
Rejectable indications:
yy Indications interpreted as cracks, seams, laps, shuts, or any flaws which are
open to the surface.
yy Indications oriented at an angle of more than 15 degrees from the longitudinal
axis with length exceeding 0.125 inch.
yy Circumferential indications on any shoulder or fillet (changes in diameter).
yyAny indications which break over an edge, shoulder, fillet radius, keyway,
spline, or an adjacent area of part more than 0.015 inch.
yy Indications caused by undercuts at the toe of a weld.
yy Indications caused by cracks in the weld or parent metal.
yy Indications caused by inclusions in weld material exceeding 0.1 inch in length.

Page 23.14 Chapter 23 Standard Practices OCT 2018


23-42 Fluorescent Penetrant Inspection
This specification provides for surface inspection of parts fabricated from nonmagnetic
materials to detect discontinuities open to the surface, such as cracks, cold shuts, laps,
porosity and other surface defects.
Applicable requirements and limitations of ASTM E1417 shall apply. After inspection is
complete, solvent clean parts.
The step‑by‑step procedure and equipment used to perform the inspection shall be
accomplished per ASTM E1417.
A. Inspection Criteria
Parts inspected by fluorescent penetrant method shall be accepted or rejected
on basis of acceptance limits specified. If acceptance limits are not specified,
rejectable surface defects and any of the following:
yy Cracks
yy Seams
yy Cold shuts or laps
yy Surface inclusions
yy In castings, aligned discontinuous surface indications other than cracks, cold
shuts and inclusions are rejectable if more than 3/8 inch in length.

23-50 Corrosion Control

[Reserved].

OCT 2018 Chapter 23 Standard Practices Page 23.15


23-60 Priming and Painting
This specification outlines preparation and application requirements for primers and topcoat.
Primers provide corrosion protection and a final finish or a base for topcoat. Use only
approved materials listed in § 23-70.
Do not prime or paint with a topcoat finish the following areas (unless directed):
yy Sliding friction joints.
yy Stainless steel parts.
yy Swivel joints and adjustable rod ends.
yy Plastic, rubber, electrical components and wires or similar materials.
yy Bolted joints where torque is a specific requirement for clamping action.
yy Bearing press fit or close tolerance slip fit joints (except where wet chromate primer is
part of the assembly procedure).

WARNING
Refer to Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and observe precautions
when working in proximity to hazardous materials.

A. Priming
1. Cleaning
a. Alkaline clean is the preferred method for cleaning aluminum and stainless
steel except where immersion is not practical. Do not immerse assembled
components.
b. Do not alkaline clean steel as it may cause a corrosive reaction. Clean steel
using QSOL 220 or equivalent solvent.
c. Extremely greasy or dirty parts may be pre-cleaned in a solvent vapor bath
or hand wiped with QSOL 220 or equivalent solvent.
d. Air dry. Do not touch cleaned parts with bare hands.
2. Surface Preparation
Unless otherwise specified, chemical conversion coating is the standard treatment
before priming aluminum. However, if bare or clad aluminum is primed without
conversion coating, the following procedure must be used:
a. Alkaline clean if immersion is practical, otherwise wipe clean with QSOL
220 or equivalent degreasing agent.
b. Lightly scuff the surface with Scotch-Brite pads.
c. Wipe with a tack rag to remove any foreign material or damp wipe with
QSOL 220 or equivalent solvent.
d. Air dry. Do not touch parts with bare hands.

Page 23.16 Chapter 23 Standard Practices OCT 2018


23-60 Priming and Painting (continued)
A. Priming (continued)
3. Primer Application
Apply primer after mixing per manufacturers recommendations. Allowable
thickness of primer is 0.0005 – 0.0020 inch, per coat. For parts with internal
openings, such as tubes, prime the inside as follows:
a. Thin primer to watery consistency using required reducer.
b. Pour in primer, slosh around, then drain immediately.
c. Dry parts at least six hours before using.
4. Inspection
Inspect for complete coverage and (excessive thickness) runs in paint. If primer
has runs, strip part and re-prime. Refer to § 23-70 for approved methods.

NOTE
Primed areas that have been sanded to bare metal must have
conversion coating (if required) and primer re-applied prior to
topcoat to restore anti-corrosion properties.

B. Painting
Prior to liquid topcoat application, ensure surfaces have been cleaned and primed.
In general, most parts will be cleaned and primed as detail parts. However, in some
cases, such as the gearbox assembly, this is not practical and primer and topcoat are
applied on the assembled component.
Previously primed surfaces, or primed surfaces that have completely cured require the
following preparation before paint:
1. Lightly sand using 220-grit or finer aluminum-oxide abrasive paper.
2. Lightly scuff with Scotch-Brite pads (optional).
3. Wipe with clean cloth and QSOL 220 or equivalent solvent.
4. Wipe with tack cloth.
5. Apply topcoat.

23-80 Miscellaneous Practices

23-81 Part Interchangeability


Refer to R22 Illustrated Parts Catalog for part interchangeability information.

23-82 Thermal Fitting Parts


General Procedures for using heat to fit parts during assembly or evaluating parts that
may have been overheated in service:
Aluminum parts must not be heated above 200º F for more than 5 minutes. Higher
temperatures or longer times adversely affect strength and corrosion properties. Scrap
any aluminum parts suspected of going above 325º F regardless of time at temperature.
Steel parts (bare) – Maximum temperature 300º F. Higher temperature can reduce the
strength or cause temper brittleness in some alloys.
Steel parts (cadmium plated) – Maximum temperature 300º F. Higher temperatures
will melt the plating and adversely affect steel strength by a process called liquid metal
embrittlement.
Bearings and carburized parts such as gears, clutch shafts, and clutch housings should
not be heated above 300º F. Higher temperatures will reduce the surface hardness and
increase wear rates.
Always heat parts in an oven with temperature control set no greater than the maximum
temperature allowed for the part.
Always attach a pyrometer and thermocouple to the smallest aluminum part in the oven.
Never depend on the oven control to determine part temperature.
Cooling a part for thermal fitting at assembly is not recommended. Water vapor from the
air will condense on the part and frequently introduce water into the assembly causing
severe internal corrosion over time.

23-83 Replacement Component Identification (Data) Plates


In order to issue a replacement component identification plate for field installation, RHC
must first receive the old identification plate in legible condition. If old identification
plate is lost or destroyed, then RHC must have an original letter (photocopies or faxes
are NOT acceptable) from customer’s Civil Aviation Authority authorizing identification
plate replacement AND stating component name, part number, and serial number for each
requested identification plate. There is a charge for each plate issued.
Identification plates may be carefully removed using a sharp plastic scraper. If necessary,
use a heat gun to soften plate adhesive. Retain in a dry, contaminate-free area until ready
for reinstallation.
Damp wipe local area with acetone or equivalent solvent prior to reinstallation. Residual
adhesive on identification plate is usually sufficient for good adhesion. If necessary, use
B270-9 adhesive or equivalent to secure.

23-85 Storage Limits
1. B283 hoses have a shelf storage life of 5 years. Hose service life is “on condition”,
with a maximum of 12 years.
2. Elastic cords have a shelf storage life of 5 years. Elastic cord service life is “on condition”,
with a maximum of 12 years. Use invoice or FAA Form 8130 date as start date.
3. Store V-belts at less than 85º F (30º C), with relative humidity below 70%. Avoid
solvent and oil vapors, atmospheric contaminants, sunlight, and ozone sources (electric
motors, arc welding, ionizing air purifiers, etc.). Belt shelf life is 4 years if preceding
recommendations are followed. Use invoice date or FAA Form 8130 date as start date.
4. Oils and greases have a 5 year shelf life when stored and kept sealed in their original
container. Use invoice date or FAA Form 8130 date as start date unless the manufacturer
has marked container with manufacture date (in which case use manufacture date as
start date).
5. Rubber o-rings, seals, and gaskets have a twenty (20) quarter, five (5) year shelf life
from the indicated cure date. Fluorocarbon (Viton) and silicon rubber products shall
adhere to manufacturer’s expiration date(s). Service life is “on condition” with a
maximum of 12 years.
6. Store uninstalled fuel bladder in original container (if available) at 70°F to 80°F and
below 70% humidity. Coat bladder with clean, non-detergent engine mineral oil to
prevent rubber from drying out and cracking. Store bladder in relaxed condition free
from tension, compression, or other deformation such as creases or folds.

CHAPTER 26

MAIN ROTOR

26-00 Description
The main rotor has two all-metal blades mounted to the hub by coning hinges. The hub is
mounted to the shaft by a teeter hinge. The coning and teeter hinges use self-lubricated
bearings. Droop stops for the main rotor blades provide a teeter hinge friction restraint
which normally prevents the rotor from teetering while starting or stopping. Pitch change
bearings for each blade are enclosed in a housing at the blade root. The housing is filled
with oil and sealed with an elastomeric boot. Each blade has a thick stainless steel spar at
the leading edge which is resistant to corrosion and erosion. The skins are bonded to the
spar approximately one inch aft of the leading edge. Blades must be refinished if the paint
erodes to bare metal at the skin-to-spar bond line. Bond may be damaged if bond line is
exposed.

26-10 Main Rotor Blades

WARNING
Due to potentially destructive results, use of blade tape (anti-
erosion tape) is prohibited.

A. Removal
Refer to Figure 26-1. Four people will be required to remove the blades. One person
must support the blade near the blade tip while another supports the root and removes
or installs the attachment bolt.

26-10 Main Rotor Blades (continued)
A. Removal (continued)
1. Mark one main rotor blade and its corresponding hub location, pitch link, and
retaining nut & bolt with “X” using a marker or grease pencil. Mark opposite blade
and its hub location, pitch link, and retaining nut & bolt with “O”.
2. Measure and record coning hinge axial gaps per Figure 26-8.
3. Remove hardware securing main rotor pitch links to blade pitch horns.
4. Remove cotter pins and loosen blade coning hinge retaining nuts until finger tight.

CAUTION
After removing one blade, support installed blade in a level
position until it is removed.

5. Remove nut, thrust washer, and trailing-edge shims (if used) from one blade. Cone
blade as required to position spindle tusk off of droop stop. Supporting blade at
root, rotate pitch horn down, and remove hinge bolt and thrust washer.

CAUTION
Do not drop journals (inside hub bearings) which can slide out
when removing blade bolt.
NOTE
Blade installation hardware is specific to each blade, each
blade’s leading and trailing edge, and each blade’s location in
hub. It is good practice after blade removal to install hardware
in hub finger tight exactly as removed.

6. Place blade on a cushioned surface to prevent damage to skins.


7. Remove opposite blade per steps 5 and 6.

26-32 Adjusting Hinge Friction
A. Teeter Hinge Friction Adjustment
1. Remove main rotor blades per § 26-10.
2. Refer to Figure 26-5 and Table 26-1. Remove cotter pin, nut, thrust washer,
and nut-side A117 shims. Adjust teeter hinge friction by changing nut-side shim
stack thickness in small increments; reducing shim stack thickness increases
friction, increasing shim stack thickness reduces friction. Install shims, thrust
washer, and nut.
3. Refer to Figure 26-9. While torquing teeter hinge bolt per § 23-33, check teeter
hinge friction frequently. To check friction, install MT354 teeter friction tool
into coning hinge bearings on one side of main rotor hub and measure moving
force (not breakaway force) required to teeter main rotor hub with a spring scale.
Teeter friction must be less than 15 ft-lb.
4. Install a new bolt and nut per § 26-20.
B. Coning Hinge Friction Adjustment
1. Refer to Figure 26-6 and Table 26-1. Remove cotter pin, nut, thrust washer, and
cone blade to remove nut-side journal.
a. B370-1 Hub: Adjust coning hinge friction by changing trailing-edge shim
stack thickness in small increments; reducing shim stack thickness increases
friction, increasing shim stack thickness reduces friction. Coning hinge
friction is zero when there is a measurable axial gap per Figure 26-8. Install
shims, thrust washer, and nut.
b. A154-1 Hub: Adjust coning hinge friction by changing trailing-edge journal
length in small increments; using a shorter journal increases friction, using a
longer journal reduces friction. Coning hinge friction is zero when there is a
measurable axial gap per Figure 26-8. Install journal, thrust washer, and nut.
2. Install a new bolt and nut per § 26-20, steps 5 thru 7. Repeat steps for opposite
blade.
3. Check coning hinge friction by lifting blades until spindle tusks clear droop stops.
Hold one blade level and cone opposite blade. Rotor hub must not teeter as blade
is coned. Repeat check on opposite blade.
4. Using a feeler gage, measure gap between thrust washers and bearing faces at
coning hinge bolt head and nut. Verify 0.002-0.006 inch total gap per hinge.
5. Drill nut and bolt per § 26-34. Install a new cotter pin wet with epoxy primer.

Page 26.20 Chapter 26 Main Rotor OCT 2018


26-33 Shifting the Main Rotor Hub

1. Remove cotter pin, nut, thrust washer, and nut-side A117 shims.

2. Have two people cone the main rotor blades. Push out teeter hinge bolt with another
bolt.

3. Move or exchange existing shims from one side of hub to the other as indicated by
main rotor balance chart (refer to § 10.230).

4. Install teeter hinge bolt per § 26-20.

26-34 Drilling Installed Main Rotor Hub Bolts

NOTE
Protect hub from damage due to chuck contact by wrapping
chuck and/or covering hub edge with several layers of tape.

New bolts and nuts must be installed and bolts stretched per § 23-33 prior to drilling.
Using a 0.125-inch diameter Cobalt twist-drill and cutting oil, drill a hole through nut and
bolt using an accessible pre-drilled hole in nut. The MT569-1 and MT569-6 (B370-1
hub coning hinge bolts) drill guide assembly will facilitate drilling a perpendicular hole. If
a pre-drilled hole is inaccessible, completely loosen nut, slightly rotate bolt to favorable
position, then special torque per § 23-33. Protect adjacent area from drilling debris.

26-40 Inspection of Main Rotor Blades

NOTE
Main rotor blades are 14 CFR § 27.602 critical parts. Notify RHC
Technical Support when voids exceeding the limits specified in
the instructions below are found, providing blade serial number,
helicopter serial number, time in service for the rotor blade, and
location and size of the voids that exceed the limits.
NOTE
The inspection criteria in this section applies to blade damage that
occurs after blade manufacturing (including shipping and handling
and time in service). Damage after blade manufacturing usually
exhibits paint scuffing, scratches, or freshly-exposed metal in
the form of scratches in the finish. If a blade manufacturing
irregularity is suspected, contact RHC Technical Support.
CAUTION
A blade may be repaired more than one time. However, in no
case can more than the maximum material be removed or the
maximum dent depth be exceeded in any one location.
A. Measuring Damage
1. Refer to Figure 26-10. Measure blade damage using a straight edge and a thickness
gage. Keep straight edge parallel with the leading and trailing edges.
2. If blades are installed on the helicopter, measure damage using the shortest straight
edge possible to span damaged area. Using a straight edge of excessive length will
cause a false reading due to natural droop of the blade.
B. Measuring Material Removed After Repair
1. Use calipers or micrometers and compare measurements before and after repair to
estimate amount of material removed.
2. Use a straight edge and thickness gage to measure repaired areas less than 2
inches across in the blade skins and spar.
26-41 Scratches and Corrosion on Blade Skins and Doublers
1. Refer to Figure 26-11. Damage may not exceed the following limits after rework:
A016-6 Blades:
a. 0.004 inch maximum depth for scratches more than 15º from spanwise axis.
b. 0.006 inch maximum depth for scratches less than 15º from spanwise axis.
A016-4 Blades:
a. 0.002 inch maximum depth for scratches more than 15º spanwise.
b. 0.003 inch maximum depth for scratches less than 15º spanwise.
2. Refer to § 26-50 for repair procedures for damage within limits. Polish out scratches

CHAPTER 33

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

33-00 Description

CAUTION
The installation of electrical devices can affect the accuracy
and reliability of the electronic tachometer.

A 14-volt DC electrical system which includes an alternator and a sealed lead-acid battery
is standard. The battery is located either in the engine compartment or beneath the
instrument console.
The circuit breaker panel is on the ledge just forward of the left seat. Breakers are marked
to indicate function and amperage and are of the push-to-reset type.
The battery switch controls the battery relay which disconnects the battery from the
electrical system. A wire protected by a fuse near the battery bypasses the battery relay
to allow both tachometers and the clock to continue to receive battery power with the
battery switch off.
The alternator control unit protects the electrical system from overvoltage conditions. The
ammeter indicates current to the battery (“—” indicates discharge). An ALT caution light or
ammeter discharge indication in flight indicates low voltage and possible alternator failure.

NOTE
Except for emergency procedures, do not operate alternator
with battery switched off. The battery helps protect electrical
equipment from voltage spikes.

Later aircraft have an avionics master switch which controls power to the avionics bus.
This allows all avionics to be switched on and off by a single switch.

OCT 2018 Chapter 33 Electrical System Page 33.1


33-10 Battery

NOTE
Refer to Concorde Battery Corporation's Owner/Operator's
Manual, and Instruction for Continued Airworthiness for battery
maintenance procedures.
CAUTION
To minimize risk of electrical discharge: When disconnecting
battery, disconnect negative (ground) cable from battery first,
then the positive cable. When connecting battery, connect
positive cable to battery first, then the negative (ground) cable.

A. Disconnecting and Removing Battery


1. Turn battery switch off.
a. Aft Battery: Remove engine left side skirt, as required. Remove cotter
rings and wing nuts to release rods attaching battery box assembly to lower
frames. Remove cover.
b. Nose battery: Open upper console and remove battery box cover.
2. Remove hardware securing negative (ground) cable to battery negative terminal.
3. Remove hardware securing positive cable to battery positive terminal. Carefully
remove battery.
B. Installing and Connecting Battery
1. Turn battery switch off.
2. Position battery in battery box and connect battery cables. Special torque terminal
bolts as noted on battery label and torque stripe per Figure 2-1.
3. Install cover.
a. Aft Battery: Install wing nuts and cotter rings to secure rods attaching
battery box assembly to lower frames. Verify security. Install engine left
side skirt, if removed.
b. Nose battery: Secure upper console.

Page 33.2 Chapter 33 Electrical System OCT 2018


33-20 Clutch Actuator
After the engine is started, it is coupled to the rotor drive system through vee-belts which
are tensioned by raising the upper drive sheave. An electric actuator, located between
the drive sheaves, raises the upper sheave when the pilot engages the clutch switch. The
actuator senses compressive load (belt tension) and switches off when the vee-belts are
properly tensioned. The clutch caution light illuminates whenever the actuator circuit is
energized, either engaging, disengaging, or re-tensioning the belts. The light stays on until
the belts are properly tensioned or completely disengaged.
Belt slack during engine start should be adjusted such that blades begin turning within five
seconds of clutch engagement. Excessive slack may cause belts to jump out of sheave
grooves during start. Periodic readjustment by a mechanic may be required as belts wear
in service.
A fuse located on or near the test switch panel prevents an actuator motor overload from
tripping the circuit breaker. If the fuse blows, the actuator motor will stop but the clutch
caution light will remain illuminated. An open circuit breaker removes power from both the
motor and the light. With an open circuit breaker, no belt tensioning will occur, and the
light will not function to indicate an abnormal condition.

CAUTION
Never take off while clutch caution light is on.

33-30 Lighting System


A red anti-collision light is installed on the tailcone and is controlled by the strobe switch.
Position lights are installed on each side of the cabin and in the tail and are controlled by
the nav lights switch. Post and internal lights (earlier aircraft) or a light at the top of the
windshield (later aircraft) illuminate the instruments. Instrument lighting is active when the
nav lights switch is on and lighting is dimmed via the knob above the nav lights switch.
An overhead map light mounted on a swivel is controlled by an adjacent switch. The map
light may be used for emergency lighting of the instrument panel.
Two landing lights are installed in the nose at different vertical angles to increase the lighted
area. One landing light switch controls both lights and is located on the cyclic center post.

NOTE
Landing lights operate only when clutch actuator switch is in
the engage position.
NOTE
Continuous operation of landing and position lights in flight is
recommended to promote collision avoidance.

OCT 2018 Chapter 33 Electrical System Page 33.3


33-40 Audio System
A voice-activated intercom/audio system is standard and is controlled by a small control
panel above the avionics stack. The ICS volume knob controls intercom volume but does
not affect radio volume. The VOX squelch knob is used to set the threshold volume at
which the intercom is activated. When the VOX knob is turned fully clockwise, keying
is required to activate the intercom. Later intercom systems include a music input jack
located on the circuit breaker panel. This input is muted when the intercom is active, when
transmitting, and during reception of radio signals.
Headset jacks are located in the ceiling near each seat. The cyclic grips are equipped
with either transmit and intercom buttons or trigger-style intercom/transmit switches. For
the trigger-style switch, the first detent activates the intercom and the second detent
transmits. An additional intercom button is located on the left-hand floor or seat support.
Earlier R22s are equipped with an intercom system that operates in either push-to-talk
(PTT) or hot mic modes. A toggle switch to the left of the cyclic center post is used to
change modes. In PTT mode, the intercom is activated using the intercom buttons.
Audio control panels from several manufacturers are offered as options in place of the
standard intercom system. Pilots should consult the manufacturer’s operating instructions
if an audio panel is installed.

Page 33.4 Chapter 33 Electrical System OCT 2018


33-50 Dual Tachometer
An electronic engine and rotor dual tachometer is standard. Engine tachometer signal is
provided by magneto breaker points. Rotor tachometer signal is provided by two magnetic
senders at the main gearbox drive yoke. Each tachometer is on a separate circuit with its
own circuit breaker. With battery and alternator switches off, the tachometers continue
to receive power from the battery through a bypass circuit as long as the clutch actuator
switch is in the engage position.

NOTE
Do not stow helicopter with clutch switch engaged. The
tachometers are powered with the clutch engaged and will
discharge the battery.

A. Adjustment
1. The early model A792-1 Dual Tachometer is pre-set at the factory and is not
adjustable in the field. For repair or adjustment, the unit must be returned to
Robinson Helicopter. (No adjustment screw on early models.)
2. The A792-2 Dual Tachometer is pre-set at the factory. Slight variations between
rotorcraft may require readjustment of rotor side of tachometer. To adjust
tachometer:
a. Remove screws that fasten instrument face panel to upper console and
carefully pull panel aft.
b. Ground run helicopter at 104% indication on the engine tachometer. Adjust
the rotor tachometer to read 104%. On back of tachometer, turn the
adjustment screw clockwise to increase and counter-clockwise to decrease
rotor tachometer indication (1/8 turn changes indication approximate 1%).
c. Reinstall instrument panel.
d. If tachometer cannot be adjusted, replace or return to Robinson Helicopter
Company for repair.

OCT 2018 Chapter 33 Electrical System Page 33.5


FIGURE 33-1 FULL THROTTLE CAUTION LIGHT RIGGING CHECK

Page 33.6 Chapter 33 Electrical System OCT 2018


33-60 Warning and Caution Lights
Warning and caution lights include clutch, main gearbox over-temperature, main and tail
gearbox chip, starter on (later aircraft), low fuel, low RPM, alternator, low oil pressure,
rotor brake, governor off, carbon monoxide (aircraft with cabin heater), and full throttle
(later aircraft). The clutch light indicates that the clutch actuator is operating. The low
RPM light and horn indicate rotor RPM at 97% or below. The low oil pressure and low fuel
lights are actuated by sensors in those systems and are independent of the gage indicators.
The alternator light warns of a possible alternator failure. The governor-off light indicates
the RPM governor is switched off.
The main and tail gearbox chip detectors are magnetic devices located in the drain plug of
each gearbox. When metallic particles are drawn to the magnets they close an electrical
circuit, illuminating the caution light. Metal particles may be caused by a failing bearing or
gear, thus giving warning of impending gearbox failure. The main gearbox over-temp light
is actuated by a temperature switch located near the input pinion.
The carbon monoxide light is actuated by a sensor above the pilot’s heater outlet and
indicates elevated cab in carbon monoxide levels.
The full throttle light is activated by a switch in the throttle linkage and indicates that the
engine is near full throttle.

A. Full Throttle Caution Light


1. Rigging Check
a. Turn fuel shut-off valve off.
b. Turn battery switch on. Raise collective full up and slowly rotate twist grip
open until full throttle caution light just illuminates.
c. Refer to Figure 33-1. Verify gap from throttle stop to corner of throttle body
full-throttle stop is 0.114–0.148 inch. Adjust as required per step 2.
d. Lower collective & turn battery switch off. Turn fuel shut-off valve on.
2. Switch Adjustment
a. Refer to Figure 33-1. Raise collective full up, rotate (throttle) twist grip
as required, loosen screw, and pivot A607-2 slotted cam (in throttle
linkage, under co-pilot seat) so V3-1 switch activates when throttle stop
is approximately 0.130 inch from corner of throttle body full-throttle stop.
Tighten screw.
b. Perform rigging check per step 1.

OCT 2018 Chapter 33 Electrical System Page 33.7


33-70 Carbon Monoxide Detector
The carbon monoxide (CO) detector, if installed, indicates elevated cabin CO levels. CO is
an odorless, toxic gas present in engine exhaust which causes headaches, drowsiness, and
possible loss of consciousness. CO levels may become elevated due to an exhaust leak or
exhaust recirculation during prolonged hovering.
The CO detector system consists of a sensor above the pilot’s heater outlet and a caution
light. A system check (light flashes twice) is performed each time power is switched on.
A sensor malfunction is indicated by a continuing flash every four seconds.
If the caution light illuminates, shut off heater and open nose and door vents as required
to ventilate the cabin. If hovering, land or transition to forward flight. If symptoms of CO
poisoning (headache, drowsiness, dizziness) accompany caution light, land immediately.
Have exhaust system inspected before next flight.
Many chemicals can damage the CO sensor. Avoid use of solvents, detergents, or aerosol
sprays near the sensor. Temporarily tape off openings in top and bottom of sensor housing
when cleaning cabin interior.

Page 33.8 Chapter 33 Electrical System OCT 2018


33-80 Emergency Locator Transmitter (ELT)
The Emergency Locator Transmitter (ELT) installation consists of a transmitter with internal
battery pack, an external antenna, and a remote switch/annunciator. The transmitter is
mounted to the upper steel tube frame and is accessible through the aft, upper cowl door.
The remote switch/annunciator is located left of the cyclic stick.
The ELT is operated by a switch on the transmitter and a remote switch in the cockpit. The
transmitter switch has been secured in the AUTO or ARM position at installation and should
always be in this position for flight. The remote switch/annunciator is a three position
switch with indicator light. This switch should also be in the AUTO or ARMED (middle)
position for flight. With both switches set to AUTO/ARM, the ELT will begin transmitting
when subjected to a high “G” load. When the unit is transmitting, the red indicator light
illuminates.
Moving the remote switch to ON activates the transmitter. Use the ON position if an
emergency landing is imminent and time permits.
If the ELT is inadvertently activated, use the RESET position of the remote switch to stop
transmission and reset the unit. The red indicator will extinguish when unit is reset.

NOTE
Earlier aircraft may have ELT installations without remote
switch.

For more detailed instructions on ELT operation, maintenance, and required tests, refer to
manufacturer’s instructions supplied with the unit.

33-90 Low Rotor RPM Warning System


A. Horn Adjustment
When the collective is raised 0.2 to 0.4 inches (measured at grip) above fully down, the
low-rotor RPM warning unit must activate the low-rpm warning horn and low-rpm light
at 97% to 96% rotor RPM; horn and light must turn off above 96% to 97% rotor RPM.
The low rotor RPM warning unit is inside the upper console mounted on the left
vertical panel. Some older helicopters may mount the unit on the right side, or
ty‑rapped to upper console’s main wire bundle. Adjustments are made by turning an
exposed screw on warning unit, accessible by removing a black-plastic plug from a
3/8-inch diameter hole on the left vertical panel. The A569-1 warning unit’s (potted
circuit board type) adjustment screw sensitivity is approximately 1/16 turn per 1%
change. The A569‑5 warning unit’s (metal box type) adjustment screw sensitivity is
approximately 2 turns per 1% change. If warning unit cannot be adjusted to above
values it must be replaced.

OCT 2018 Chapter 33 Electrical System Page 33.9


33-100 Alternator Output Voltage Adjustment without A942-1
To check or adjust the output voltage:
1. Connect a voltmeter to “I” terminal of voltage regulator and ground with helicopter
running and read voltage (13.2 to 13.8 volts).
2. Output voltage may be adjusted using range screw on voltage regulator.

33-110 Troubleshooting
A. A569-5 Low Rotor RPM Warning Unit
Perform following tests prior to replacing A569-5 low rotor-rpm warning unit:
1. Verify:
a. Low RPM light bulb is functional.
b. Master switch off.
c. Full-down collective.
d. Horn circuit breaker in.
2. Access and disconnect both horn and A569-5 low rotor-rpm warning unit from
airframe electrical wiring.
3. Turn Master switch on and verify Horn circuit breaker remains in. If Horn circuit
breaker pops then -70 wire is shorted to ground; repair as required. Turn Master
switch off.
4. On the warning unit’s airframe electrical connector, install a jumper between
wires -70 & -75.
5. Turn Master switch on and verify Horn Start circuit breaker remains in. If Horn
Start circuit breaker pops then a short-to-ground exists in -75 wire and/or collective
activated V3-1 switch; repair as required.
6. Fully raise collective and verify Horn Start circuit breaker remains in and Low
RPM light illuminates. If Horn Start circuit breaker pops then a short-to-ground
exists in -76 wire and/or -78 wire and/or collective-activated V3-1 switch; repair
as required. If Low RPM light does not illuminate then collective-activated V3-1
switch is faulty or mis-adjusted and/or an open exists in -70, -75, or -76 wires.
7. Slowly raise and lower collective fully several times while simultaneously
manipulating throttle. Verify Horn Start circuit breaker remains in and Low RPM
light remains illuminated whenever collective is raised. If Horn Start circuit breaker
pops then a short-to-ground condition is occurring in -70, -75, or -76 wires and/or
collective-activated V3-1 switch due to collective movement. Check for pinched/
rubbing wiring and repair as required.
8. Turn Master switch off. Connect horn to airframe wiring.

Using Vibrex 2000 balancing equipment (or similar) capable of displaying ± 1 rpm
resolution and calibrated within one year, verify tachometer accuracy per following
tables. Connect equipment in accordance with §§ 10.221 and 6.240 (use photocell
instead of Strobex per Figure 6-4A). Operate aircraft at noted tachometer indications
and verify engine and rotor rpms as specified. Tachometer needles are 1% wide.

Example: Replacing the carburetor air temperature probe with a ¼ to 1-watt 100‑ohm
resistor should result in an indication of approximately 21°C (measure exact resistor
value & refer to above). A probe dipped in a Styrofoam cup full of crushed ice
and water should indicate 90.38 ohms resistance per above table. Probe installation
torque is 3 to 4 inch-pounds; over-torquing probe will result in damage.

33-120 Electrical Load Analysis
To calculate the total electrical load for a specific helicopter, identify all items of equipment
installed on the helicopter from the table below and sum the corresponding continuous and
intermittent loads.
Maximum continuous alternator load is given in the table below:

System Voltage Alternator Rating Maximum Continuous Load


14V 60 amp 54 amps

Intermittent loads are provided for reference.


Alternately, the electrical load may be measured directly at the battery output terminal with
the alternator switched off and all other equipment turned on. The measured load may be
scaled by the ratio of battery voltage to nominal system voltage to obtain a value that is
compared with the alternator load limit.

WARNING
Field (non-factory) installation of electronic equipment can
be hazardous. Due to the compactness of the console and
tunnel containing the controls and wire bundles, installation
of any additional wires can interfere with flight controls.
Electronic tachometers, warning systems, and navigation
equipment essential to flight are sensitive to interference from
other electrical devices. The reliability and accuracy of the
tachometers is essential for safe operation of the helicopter,
and installation of an electrical device not tested and approved
by RHC may result in a hazardous condition.

34-10 Avionics Switch Description


R22 Helicopters S/N 4591, 4650, 4651, 4656 & subsequent have a dedicated avionics
switch located on the main switch panel on top of the avionics stack. Earlier R22s have an
avionics bus, but the master radio relay interrupts power to the avionics bus during start-
up, eliminating the need for a switch. The avionics switch controls a relay which interrupts
power to the avionics bus (system is fail-safe ON).

34-20 Transponder Installations

34-21 A804-12 Transponder (Garmin GTX 330 ES) Installation

NOTE
Refer to Garmin GTX 330 ES Maintenance Manual and
Instructions for Continued Airworthiness.

A. Description
Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) “Out” equipment transmits aircraft
specific-data and position information to air traffic control via GPS-based surveillance
(rather than radar-based surveillance). ADS-B Out equipment will be required for R22
operation in certain airspace in the United States after January 1, 2020.
ADS-B Out system operates mostly automatically. ADS-B Out equipment is
programmed with aircraft-specific data at installation. ADS-B Out system uses
the primary installed GPS for position information. Additional flight-specific data is
entered by the pilot using transponder controls. ADS-B data is transmitted via the
transponder’s Extended Squitter (ES) on frequency 1090 MHz.
ADS-B Out equipment (transponder and primary GPS) must have power and must
be in normal operating modes for systems to function properly. ADS-B Out system
faults are annunciated on the transponder and primary GPS screens.
Change of aircraft registration may require ADS-B equipment programming by
qualified maintenance personnel.
Refer to R22 Pilot’s Operating Handbook Section 9 for additional information.
B. Schematic
Refer to Figure 14-41 for A804-12 transponder & blind encoder electrical schematic.

34-60 Avionics Software


Modern avionics software is complex and subject to rigorous testing by RHC to assure proper
function and integration in the aircraft. Only specified software versions and software
configurations have been FAA-approved for installation in Robinson helicopters. Software
updates should not be attempted without a thorough understanding of approval status and
compatibility. Technical support from either RHC or the avionics manufacturer will likely be
required. In some cases, updating software for one item of avionics may require additional
avionics to be updated to assure compatibility.
As long as RHC-installed equipment is functioning properly, there is no continuing
airworthiness requirement to check or update software levels in Robinson helicopters; RHC
will issue an SB (or FAA will issue an AD) for any mandatory updates.
Consult www.robinsonheli.com > Customer Support > Avionics Support > Avionics
Software page for approved software configurations.

NOTE
The above statements apply to avionics operating software.
Databases (e.g. charts, terrain, etc.) may be updated regularly
using avionics manufacturer’s recommended procedures.
