Refer to Figure.
Refer to the SPM TASK 70-38-04-300-503, SUBTASK 70-38-04-300-001.
Use CoMat 05-003 ABRASIVE MEDIUM ALUMINUM OXIDE, 120/220 GRADE with abrasive blast equipment.
NOTE
A surface finish of 40 to 80 micro in., (1.0 to 2.0 microns) has to be achieved.
Dry abrasive blast the vane airfoil to remove dressing or etch marks.
SUBTASK 72-41-32-120-052 Dry Abrasive Blast the Variable Stator Vanes to Remove Dressing or Etch Marks
Refer to the SPM TASK 70-38-04-300-503, SUBTASK 70-38-04-300-001.
Make sure that all dressing marks are removed.
Visually examine the vane airfoil.

Refer to the SPM TASK 70-09-00-400-501, SUBTASK 70-09-00-400-001.
If this is the first time this repair has been completed, on the vane, vibro-engrave the code symbol, adjacent to the assembly number.
If this is the second time this repair has been completed, vibro-engrave /1 adjacent to the code symbol.
If this is the third time this repair has been completed, vibro-engrave /2 adjacent to the code symbol.
Use vibro-engraving equipment.
Mark a code symbol adjacent to the assembly number.
