PART A INSPECTION

(1) Set up proof load tester, Dillon Model U 30354- - -0058 or equivalent force gage and C- - -clamp, to the fore rudder hinge bracket assembly 85547217- - -001. Refer to Figure 5.

(2) Proof load existing bearing DSC8- - -6 in- - -situ to 132 lbs. Apply load by slowly tightening C- - -Clamp. During proof load testing, any slippage or freeplay (relative movement between the bearing and fitting) is deemed as unacceptable.

(3) If bearing fails proof load test, refer to PART B RECTIFICATION section.

NOTE: Make sure spacer, (support) NAS43HT10- - -8 or equivalent, contacts bearing race only .

NOTE: Make sure spacer, (support) NAS43HT14- - -8 or equivalent, contacts fitting 85574217- - -001 and washer, (support) AN970- - -4 on C- - -Clamp.

(4) If existing bearing passes the proof load test, no further additional action is required. Refer to C. Close Out section.

(5) Inspect area adjacent to the proof load tested bearings for a small red dot, if no dot is present, identify area using a Dalo marker or equivalent paint marker.

Refer to Figure 5.

(6) If bearings have not been sealed, apply sealant DHMS S3.01, T ype II, Class B between the outside circumference of the installed bearing (both sides) and fore rudder hinge bracket assembly 85547217- - -001.

PART B RECTIFICATION

(1) If existing bearing fails proof load test, remove bearing DSC8- - -6 from fore rudder hinge bracket assembly 85547217- - -001.

(2) Carefully remove sealant (if applicable) with a plastic or phenolic scraper from bearing and top/bottom surfaces of fore rudder hinge bracket assembly.

NOTE: Do not use metal scrapers to remove sealant. Metal scrapers will damage the surface.

(3) Inspect bearing DSC8- - -6 for damage, corrosion and dimension conformity.

Outside diameter of bearing should be 0.8120 to 0.8125 inch diameter.

NOTE: The existing bearings DSC8- - -6 may be reused if no damage, corrosion and dimensional non- - -conformity is evident.

(4) Inspect fitting bore of the fore rudder hinge bracket assembly 85547217- - -001 as follows:

(a) Carefully inspect bore of the fore rudder hinge bracket assembly, using flashlight and inspection mirror, for damage, corrosion and dimension conformity.

(b) If damage, corrosion or dimensional non- - -conformity is evident, carefully ream the inside diameter with a 0.8140 inch diameter reamer.

(c) If bore is worn or damaged beyond 0.8140 inch diameter, a repair disposition (RD) will be required from Bombardier. Contact the T echnical Help Desk department.

(5) Install new or existing DSC8- - -6 bearing into the fore rudder hinge bracket assembly 85547217- - -001 with sealant MIL- - -S- - -22473 as follows:

(a) Solvent wipe the fitting bore of the fore rudder hinge bracket assembly and bearings with a clean, cotton lint- - -free cloth dampened with solvent MIL- - -R- - -81533 or solvent DHMS S5.01, Class 2. Refer to Structural Repair Manual, PSM 1- - -84- - -3 , 51- - - 22 - - -40, Loctite Sealant Bonding procedure.

Refer to Figure 5.

NOTE: When cleaning sealed, grease lubricated bearings, make sure that no solvent enters the sealed bearing and contaminates the lubricant.

NOTE: Handle all clean parts with clean lint- - -free cotton gloves.

(6) Proof load installed bearings to 132 pounds with Dillon Model U 30354- - -0058 or equivalent force gage. Refer to Figure 5.

(7) Identify proof loading test by applying a small red dot adjacent to the bearing using a Dalo marker or equivalent.

(8) Seal the outer circumference of the installed bearing DSC8- - -6 to fore rudder hinge bracket assembly 85547217- - -001 (on both sides of installed bearing) with sealant DHMS S3.01, T ype II, Class B. Refer to Figure 5.

NOTE: Do not allow sealant to enter bearings.

(9) Identify fore rudder hinge bracket assembly 85547217- - -001 with “SB 84- - -27- - -44” in a suitable area using a thin permanent marker.
