General
This repair must only be done when the instruction to do so is given in TASK 72-41-32Inspection/Check.
The practices and processes referred to in the procedure by the TASK number are in the SPM.
This Repair gives the instruction to remove damage on the HP compressor variable stator vane, stage 6, by material removal.
Not more than 10 percent of variable stator vanes that are dressed to the maximum limit of this Repair should be included in any one stator stage.
Variable stator vanes must be repaired as soon as damage or wear is monitored, to get back HP compressor efficiency and extend the variable stator vane life.
Material removal from the HP compressor variable stator vane airfoil fillet radius is not permitted.
Price and availability - refer to IAE

NONEProcedure
Refer to Figure.
Use portable grinding equipment.
Continue to remove material until all the damage is removed.
The maximum depth to remove the damage must not be more than 0.005in. (0.13 mm).
The diameter of the repaired area is to be 50 times the depth.
Remove the damage on the airfoil surfaces by material removal.
Use CoMat 05-077 WATERPROOF SILICON CARBIDE or CoMat 05-076 WATERPROOF SILICON CARBIDE and/or CoMat 05-075 WATERPROOF SILICON CARBIDE.
Polish the repaired area to remove scratches and to give a surface finish the same as the adjacent material.
NOTE
The last polish is to be in a radial direction.
Polish the repaired area.
