# MANDATORY SERVICE BULLETIN

1. Compliance

SB effectivity date * JUNE 2005

* Date on which this Mandatory SB becomes effective and must systematically be complied with,

according to the conditions of application. This date corresponds to when all resources needed to perform the procedure (parts, tools, documentation, etc.) will be available. If these resources are available any earlier, the SB may, as an exception, be applied prior to the effectivity date.

CAUTION: FAILURE TO APPLY THIS MANDATORY SB MAY LEAD TO AN UNCOMMANDED INFLIGHT ENGINE SHUT-DOWN. 

### A. Compliance
Application of this Mandatory Service Bulletin (SB) is considered mandatory as a result of a technical requirement which might affect flight safety. It may be done immediately or to accommodate an existing schedule.

Validity Code

ARRIEL 2C - 2C1 - 2C2
ARRIEL 2S1 - 2S2 1-A

Note: variants 2B, 2B1, 2B1A and 2B1B are addressed in Mandatory SB No. 292 73 2812. Conditions of application for engines in service (1) At the operator's site, at a TURBOMECA-approved Service Center or at a TURBOMECA-approved Maintenance Center The purpose of this Mandatory SB is to inspect HMU splines after 500 operating hours of HMU/current M01 assembly. If the result is compliant after 500 operating hours and providing that HMU/current M01 assembly remains unchanged, it will never again be necessary to inspect splines. A new inspection will only be performed (even if the SB was already applied) in the following cases:

 HMU is removed from current M01 and installed on another M01 or

 M01 is replaced or

 HMU is repaired / overhauled (given that the splines can be replaced during repair/level 4 overhaul). To determine the operating hours logged by the HMU/current M01 assembly:

 Check HMU log card to see the date that the HMU began operating on this engine.

 On engine log book, check that M01 was not replaced since this date.

 Check HMU log card to know if it was overhauled/repaired since it operated on current M01.

 Determine the total operating hour s logged by the M01/HMU assembly:

o since HMU first operated on current M01 or

o since HMU repair/overhaul. The compliance conditions of this Mandatory SB and the associated deadlines are shown in the table on the following page.
