NOTE 4 The retirement times of critical parts are the same as shown in Data Sheet 4H11 except where supplemented or superseded by the following:

R e t i r e m e n t P e r i o d Component Part Number Hours *

Gimbal Outer Eng. P/N 63309 6300 Mount – Hiller

Drive Shaft – Soloy P/N 660-2408-3 4000

Control Arm – Soloy P/N 560-7522-1 21500

Number SH178WE

NOTE 4 *Retired parts must be removed from service. These parts are not eligible for reinstallation on aircraft.

** The retirement period for the engine outer Gimbal must be reduced to 5,480 hours when the Hiller P/N 53200-03 main rotor blades are installed per Soloy Service Bulletin No. 13-560. The remaining life must be calculated from the following formula:

Life remaining = 5, 480 – X 5, 480/6300

When Lo is service time accrued on the Gimbal in operation with the Parsons P/N 2253-1101-03/04 blades.

Information essential to the maintenance of the rotorcraft modified in accordance with this STC is contained in the pertinent model inspection guide, repair handbook and service and overhaul manuals; and in the Soloy Conversions Ltd.

supplements to these documents.

NOTE 5 The Type Certificate holder has demonstrated compliance with FAR 133.43 for the UH-12E and UH-12E (4 Place) Rotorcraft for Class B Jettison able Sling Load Rotorcraft – Load Combination at a maximum overall weight of 3100 pounds and maximum sling load of 1250 pounds, when modified to incorporate cargo hook installation per Hiller Dwg. 91012. The rotorcraft weight without sling load is not to exceed certificated weight of 2800 pounds (3100 lbs. when Soloy Service Bulletin 13-560 is incorporated).
