Preparation of Helicopter. The helicopter shall be prepared for safe ground maintenance. Apartial inspection for cause (visual indications, sites of mechanical damage, corrosion, etc.) may beperformed on all exposed surfaces of the installed part using this procedure. If required, the dragbeam and the bushings shall be removed in accordance with the applicable technical manuals listedin Table 1-1.4.22.3.3. Access. Not applicable.4.22.3.4. Preparation of Part. The part shall be thoroughly cleaned. Refer to Preparation of Part orArea for NDI, paragraph 1.4.4.4.22.3.5. NDI Equipment Settings.a.Make the following initial settings on the Eddy Current Inspection Unit, NORTEC-19ell.Frequency F1- 200 KHzF2- offHdB- 57.0VdB- 69.0Rot- 560Probe drive- midLPF- 100HPF- 0H Pos- 80%V Pos-20%b.Refer to Eddy Current Method, paragraph 1.4.11. Set up on test block as follows:(1)Null probe on test block.(2)Adjust phase as required to obtain horizontal lift-off.(3)Move probe over all three notches in test block. Adjust gain to obtain a three block vertical signal whenprobe is passed over 0.040-inch notch in test block. (See the standard instrument display shown in Figure1-7.)4.22.3.6. Inspection Procedure.
