TWIST 'ER I WAS JS' FEELING'

 EASY,
 MISTER! ...


 SWhen you birdmen handle Huey (UH-1) flight control
 tubes for looseness or binding on a bearing check, go easy
 on the muscle power.
 Using too much twisting force on rubes with bearing,
 P/N AN206DSP4, FSN 3110-198-0336, in'em can over-
 load the bearing and pop out the bearing retaining clip...
 exit the ball bearings.
 Never use a screwdriver (or any other tool) in a clevis
 SVE when twisting the tubes. Use hand pressure only, on the
 THE tubes.
BEARINGS
 If a clip does pop, tho, fire off an EIR (DA Form 2407)
 to the Aviation Command, ATTN: AMSAV-R-EU, giv-
 ing the manufacturer's part number, assembly number,
 bird model and serial number plus the total hours on the
 failed bearing.

 PILOTS...USE THE SCAN LINE
 The transmission oil pressure caution light on
 your Huey (UH-1) can give you the cold clammy .
 sometimes without any real reason for sweat.
 The light switch can short out if water gets
 into the housing, causing a short across the con-
 tact points. The short causes the caution light to
 glow -normally an indication of low transmis- -
 sion oil pressure.
 If the transmission light comes on in your
 bird, look sharp! Run your peepers up to the
 transmission oil pressure gage. If it's in the
 green you've got a faulty light switch and you
 can complete your mission. Be sure you write I'M
 up the faulty switch. CHECKIN'
 Remember that the purpose of all bird caution BOTH
 lights is to get your attention. Scan your instru- EM
 ments for the real status of your bird.
