Mal<e a Moving TooL
Dear Windy,
You can get stuck removing the chip detector from the main
module sump on the Black Hawk's main transmission.
You've got to tuR the sleeve
In the sump to
OFF
to stop the
flow of oil± but that sleeve
always sticks² Most mechs grab
two pliers and go at the sleeve²
That damages the rivets and
the sleeve²
We had our sheet metal shop
make this tool from 1³2-ln rolled
stock and told them it had to
withstand at least
3²
lbs of force´
With just a little twist of this
toolµ no more stuck sleeves²
