Speed Control to Injector Lever Adjustment.
CAUTION
Do not overtighten adjusting screws during installation or adjustment. Overtightening can
result in damage to injector control tube. Recommended adjusting screw torque is
24–36 lb-in (3–4 N·m).
11.
Turn adjusting screw (Figure 6, Item 20) on 3L or 3R injector control lever (Figure 6, Item 28) until slight
movement is felt on speed control lever (Figure 6, Item 2), injector rack (Figure 6, Item 27) rolls up on
injector control lever, or an increase in effort to turn screw is felt. Release speed control lever.
NOTE
Always secure adjusting screw to prevent turning when tightening locknut. Tightening
locknut without securing adjusting screw can turn screw out of adjustment.
12.
Hold adjusting screw and tighten locknut (Figure 6, Item 29).
13.
Check left clevis pin (Figure 6, Item 24) for freeness. Pin must turn freely in control tube lever
(Figure 6, Item 25) when 3L or 3R is in FULL FUEL position. If clevis pin does not rotate freely, adjust
injector control lever again.
14.
Check injector control rack lever adjustments as follows:
a.
Hold speed control lever (Figure 6, Item 2) in FULL FUEL position.
b.
Using a screw driver, lightly press downward on injector rack (Figure 6, Item 27) and slide screw
driver off.
c.
Injector rack (Figure 6, Item 27) should spring back upward.
15.
If injector rack (Figure 6, Item 27) does not spring back, loosen adjusting screw locknut
(Figure 6, Item 29) and tighten adjusting screw (Figure 6, Item 20) slightly. Tighten locknut. Check
adjustment using Steps 13–14.
