TASK 72-31-00-430-001 LP Compressor (LPC) Fan Module - Assemble
General
This TASK gives the procedure to assemble the LP Compressor (Fan) Module.
Fig/item numbers in parentheses in the procedure agree with those used in the IPC. Only the primary Fig/item numbers are used. For the service bulletin alpha variants refer to the IPC.
For all parts identified in a different Chapter/Section/Subject, the applicable Chapter/Section/Subject comes before the Fig/item number.
For standard torque data and procedures, refer to the SPM TASK 70-41-00-400-501, SPM TASK 70-41-00-400-501 and TASK 70-41-01-400-501.
Special torque data and assembly tolerances are included in the procedure.
Lubricate all threads and abutment faces of nuts and bolts with CoMat 10-077 APPROVED ENGINE OILS, unless other lubricants are referred to in the procedure.
To identify, lubricate and install seal rings, refer to the SPM TASK 70-64-02-640-501.
The abbreviation Intf shows an interference or tight fit. This causes REJECT IF MORE THAN to become REJECT IF LESS THAN. The abbreviation clear shows a clearance fit.
Refer to Figure for a sectional view of an LP Compressor (Fan) Module.
