This is an Enhanced Required for Compliance document. There will be a separate Service Bulletin (SB) and a separate Requirements Bulletin (RB). If an RB is mandated by an Airworthiness Directive (AD), then all applicable requirements specified in the RB must be done. For the related SB, some locations are marked RC Start and RC End to identify the requirements that are restated from the RB. For the related SB, the areas between RC Start and RC End, including sub-steps and any figures identified between RC Start and RC End, must be done to comply with the AD.

Therefore, an Alternative Method of Compliance (AMOC) is required for any deviations to steps between RC Start and RC End, including substeps and identified figures.

For the related SB, the steps not between RC Start and RC End may be deviated from using accepted methods in accordance with the operator's maintenance or inspection program without obtaining approval of an AMOC; this is provided that the steps between RC Start and RC End, including sub-steps and identified figures, can still be done as specified, and the airplane can be put back in an airworthy condition.

Figures not required for compliance are omitted from the RB.

This is an Enhanced Required for Compliance document. The Boeing processes used to create the Service Bulletin (SB) and the Requirements Bulletin (RB) ensure that the information between "RC Start" and "RC End" in the SB are identical to the information in the same sections (Compliance, Work Instructions ... ) of the RB which the SB refers to as the related document.

The compliance times for the actions in WORK INSTRUCTIONS are in Compliance.

These work instructions refer to procedures included in other Boeing documents.

When the words "refer to" are used and the operator has an accepted alternative procedure, the accepted alternative procedure can be used. When the words "in accordance with" are included in the instruction, the procedure in the Boeing document must be used.

If it is necessary to remove more parts for access, you can remove those parts. If you can get access without removing identified parts, it is not necessary to remove all of the identified parts. Jacking and shoring limitations must be observed.

Use the approved fastener, process, and material substitutions in accordance with SRM Chapter 51.

Unless shown differently, these dimensions and tolerances are used:

Linear dimensions are in inches Tolerance on linear dimensions, other than rivet and bolt edge margins, is plus or minus 0.03 inch Angular tolerance is plus or minus 2 degrees Hole dimensions for standard solid rivets and fasteners are in Structural Repair Manual (SRM) Chapter 51 Torque Values:

Values for structural fasteners are given in 747 Structural Repair Manual, Chapter 51.
