To decrease the possibility of gear-up landings caused by seizure of the uplock rollers, accomplish the following:
A) Within the next 300 hours' time in service after the effective date of this AD, determine ifeach uplock roller is of the greasible type (one having a drilled and grooved inner race) and replace any nongreasible uplock roller (one having a solid inner race) with the greasible type prior to further flight.
NOTE: This determination may be made by lubricating the uplock rollers and verifying that grease passes between the inner and outer races.
B) Within the next 300 hours' time in service after the effective date of this AD, install hollow zerk-ended mounting bolts on the uplock rollers in accordance with Beech Service Instructions No. 0448-211 or any FAA-approved equivalent.
C) Within the next 300 hours' time in service after the effective date of this AD, and thereafter at 100 hour intervals, lubricate the uplock mechanism in accordance with Beech Service Instruction No. 0448-211.
This AD supersedes AD 72-17-02 (Amendment 39-1501).
