NONESafety Requirements
NONEProcedure
Refer to Figure.
Inspect and identify the damaged balance weights.
Use a cutter knife, a scraper and CoMat 05-020 WATERPROOF SILICON CARBIDE.
Refer to Figure.
Remove the disengaged balance weight and laminate glass fabric without any damage to the parent material, and remove the remaining resin.
SUBTASK 72-38-11-330-054 Remove the Damaged Balance Weights from the Inlet Cone Assembly
Use CoMat 02-149 DRY ICE.
Make cool the IAE 3J12737 Balance adapter 1 off by dry ice at 04 deg F (-20 deg C) for 15 to 20 minutes.
Use IAE 3J12737 Balance adapter 1 off.
Refer to Figure.
Attach the inlet cone assembly on the balance adapter and the tighten the bolts in a diagonal sequence.
Use IAE 3J12736 Hydraulic mandrel 1 off and a balancing machine ZE40 or VE4L.
Install the hydraulic mandrel on the balancing machine.
SUBTASK 72-38-11-290-051 Do the Static Balance for the Inlet Cone Assembly
Refer to Figure.
Hand clean the surface of the removed balance weights and the area around.
SUBTASK 72-38-11-360-054 Prepare the Surfaces for the Steel Filled Putty
CoMat 08-047 HARDENER must be mixed into CoMat 08-070 STAINLESS STEEL POWDER 200-MESH, CoMat 08-048 RESIN added and mixed until it becomes smooth.
The steel filled putty is made-up from three parts: CoMat 08-048 RESIN 60 parts by weight, CoMat 08-070 STAINLESS STEEL POWDER 200-MESH 330 parts by weight and CoMat 08-047 HARDENER 6.6 parts by weight.
SUBTASK 72-38-11-360-055 Make-up of the Steel Filled Putty
Use a mass weighing scale.
Accuracy: 3.5 x 0.0001 oz (0.01 g).
Weigh the steel filled putty which is mixed by Step.
Refer to Figure.
Apply the putty circumferentially.
Apply the steel filled putty to the prepared surface within 15 minutes after mixing.
SUBTASK 72-38-11-360-056 Apply and Cure the Steel Filled Putty
NOTE
Do not mix this material in amounts greater than 3.52 oz (100 g).The resin mixture is made-up from two parts: CoMat 08-047 HARDENER 10 to 12 parts by weight and CoMat 08-048 RESIN 100 parts by weight.
SUBTASK 72-38-11-360-057 Make-up of the Resin Mixture
Apply it circumferentially.
Refer to Figure.

CAUTION
AFTER PREPARATION, THE MATING SURFACES MUST BE FULLY CLEANED AND MUST NOT BE TOUCHED BY HAND, TO PREVENT CONTAMINATION.After applying the putty, cover the putty with one laminate of fiberglass cloth which overlaps the edge of the putty by 0.748 in. (19 mm).
Coat the resin mixture which is made-up as specified in Step.
SUBTASK 72-38-11-360-058 Apply and Cure the Resin/Fibre Reinforcements by the Wet Lay-up
Refer to the SPM TASK 70-09-00-400-501.
Mark VRS1464 adjacent to the part number.
