Refer to Figure.
Refer to the SPM TASK 70-11-03-300-503.
Clean the repair area.
SUBTASK 72-44-20-110-055 Clean the Repair Area of the Stage 1 HPT Vane Assembly
Refer to Figure.
Refer to the SPM TASK 70-12-09-120-501 or SPM TASK 70-12-02-120-501.
Abrasive blast the repair area.
SUBTASK 72-44-20-120-054 Abrasive Blast the Repair Area

CAUTION
DO NOT ABRASIVE BLAST ON COATING THAT YOU APPLIED BY SPM TASK 70-34-03-340-501 UNLESS SPECIFIED BY VRS3158, TASK 72-44-20-300-018 (72-44-20, REPAIR-018, PAGE 901.Refer to Figure.
NOTE
Use small diameter wire to keep heat input to a minimum and to decrease the possibility of cracking because of heat.Use CoMat 03-243 WELDING FILLER WIRE and manual gas tungsten (GTAW-MA) method or the manual arc weld (PAW-MA) method.
Refer to the SPM TASK 70-31-13-310-501.
Use weld techniques that keep heat input to a minimum.
Weld to build up the anti-rotation slot.
SUBTASK 72-44-20-310-056 Weld to Build Up the Worn Anti-Rotation Slot of the Stage 1 HPT vane Assembly
Do not let the part become cool too quickly.
You can use slow heating and cooling cycles to keep distortion to a minimum.
NOTE
You can do the stress relief at the same time as VRS3638 TASK 72-44-20-300-038 (REPAIR-038).Stress relieve the vane assembly at 1500 plus or minus 25 deg. F (815.6 plus or minus 14 deg C) for four hours after welding.
SUBTASK 72-44-20-370-053 Stress Relieve the Stage 1 HPT Vane Assembly
Refer to Figure.
SUBTASK 72-44-20-320-055 Finish Machine or Blend the Weld Repaired Area of the Stage 1 HPT Vane Assembly
Refer to the SPM TASK 70-23-08-230-501.
Fluorescent penetrant inspect the repaired area.
