Overhaul.
(cont)
manufactured of materials not previously
proven in service and on proven parts in
sufficient quantities to assure good
quality control on the process being
used.
No flame or arc welding shall be
used on rotating parts such as turbine
wheels, compressor wheels, shafts, or
gears.
Unless specifically forbidden by
other portions of this manual, the above
procedures shall be applied toward
repair of all parts applicable to this
engine.
(f) During
both removal and
disassembly procedures, check parts and
components for wear and damage before
cleaning.
Fine metallic particles
present in a lubricant are evidence of
wear that would be lost during cleaning
operations.
(g) Parts shall be inspected by
experienced personnel using good shop
practice.
A careful visual inspection
should precede any detail check to
eliminate
unnecessary
inspection
procedures and to determine the extent
of
further
checking.
Inspection
requirements in
this
section
are
provided as the basis for setting up
inspection procedures.
CAUTION
To prevent damage, do not use lead
or wax base pencils for marking on
high
temperature
alloy
parts.
Carbon/wax in pencils is detrimental
to parts.
Use red ink felt pens or
grease base pencils.
(h) Check
all
micrometers,
gages, indicators, and other measuring
instruments periodically. Calibrate in
accordance with MIL-STD-120 or with
applicable manufacturer instructions.

(i) Good shop practices include
complete
and
accurate
inspection
records.
Records not only simplify
reworking of the equipment, but also
ensure a complete and thorough overhaul.
Inspection records should be based upon
the requirements outlined in this
section.
Parts needing rework or
replacement should be so tagged, and a
notation of the disposition of these
parts should be entered on the inspec-
tion records.
The same method should be
followed for parts needing special
treatment, such as magnetic or fluo-
rescent inspections, painting, cadmium
plating, and similar treatments.
