Refer to SUBTASK 72-50-22-350-070 before you do the blend repairs.
Blend repair only dents on leading and trailing edge of the stage 5 turbine vane.
Do not blend other dents with this repair.
The blend ratio length to depth must be a minimum of 5:1, refer to Figure.
Keep material removal to a minimum necessary to remove the damage.
The surface texture of all repaired surfaces must have the same or better quality to that of the adjacent non damaged area.
Nicks within acceptable limits do not require blend repair. If present remove raised material only.
Repeated blending in one place is acceptable to the specified maximum depth, measured from the initial unblended surface.
Area definition is identical with area definition at visual inspection.
SUBTASK 72-50-22-350-071 Blend Repair the Stage 5 Turbine Vane

CAUTION
THE MINIMUM DISTANCE BETWEEN BLENDS AT LEADING AND TRAILING EDGE IS 0.500 IN. (12.7 MM).NOTE
Measure the dimensions of the blended areas with dial caliper and external dial caliper and external dial caliper.
The limits are given in Step.
Use radius gage set to examine the radius at each blend repaired area.
Refer to Figure.
Use dial caliper to identify the extension of leading and trailing edge areas.
Refer to Figure.
Examine the blend repaired areas dimensionally.
