WARNING: The air intake is capable of generating sufficient suction to pull a person partially into the intake
duct. The danger of this suction cannot be overemphasized. An idling engine has enough
suction to draw eyeglasses, small tools, rags and other small objects into the intake duct.
Beware of engine air intake danger areas (Ref. Figure 201).
The exhaust jet wake must be approached with extreme caution as extensive damage can be incurred from the high
temperature and high-velocity gases (Ref. Figure 201). At high engine speeds, the jet wake may propel loose dirt,
sizeable stones, sand and debris over a considerable distance. The high temperatures in the wake are sufficient to
deteriorate asphalt. For this reason, concrete is recommended for engine-run-up areas.
WARNING: Occasionally, when a jet engine is started, an accumulation of fuel in the exhaust duct is blown
out of the duct as long streams of flame. Personnel should observe proper fire precautions and
move all flammable material to a safe distance.
Exposure to gases in the jet wake should be avoided. Failure to do so may result in respiratory
irritations and a burning sensation in the eyes. Particular care should be taken to avoid
exposure to gases in confined spaces where the gas concentration may be high. Beware of
engine air intake and exhaust jet wake danger areas (Ref. Figure 201).
COOL DOWN
Work that requires contact with the exhaust duct should not be attempted until the exhaust duct is allowed to cool
for at least one-half hour.
All jet fuels and many lubricating oils cause irritation and injury to skin. Precautions must be taken to avoid contact.

ENGINE OPERATING LIMITS
NOTE
1. The total time during which takeoff thrust may be used is limited to 5 minutes; the time limit is to commence
when the thrust lever is first advanced for takeoff thrust.
2. Refer to Figures 203 and 204 for interturbine temperature (ITT) limits. A normal engine start will not exceed
550 °C ITT under typical starting conditions. If starting ITT exceeds 550 °C, the following time limitations apply:
550 °C TO 600 °C..........4 seconds maximum
600 °C TO 700 °C..........2 seconds maximum
3. If the above time limitations are exceeded, refer to the Pratt & Whitney JT15D-5 Maintenance Manual for
inspection procedures. Temperature exceeding 550 °C should be investigated (Ref. Figure 203).
4. N1, N2 and ITT limits are to be established as a function of outside air temperature (OAT) prior to engine run
(Ref. Figures 205 and 206).
5. Normal oil pressure is 60 to 83 psi (4.2 to 5.8 kg/cm2) at N2 speeds above 60%. At speeds below 60% N2,
normal oil pressure is 40 to 60 psi (2.8 to 4.2 kg/cm2)
6. Oil pressure may reach 150 psi (10.5 kg/cm2) during a cold start condition, but must return to the normal range
when normal operating temperatures are reached.
7. Under certain transient conditions of deceleration, the oil temperature may exceed 121 °C. Up to 135 °C is
permitted for up to 15 minutes.
8. Refer to Figures 207 and 208 for low rotor (N1) and high rotor (N2) overspeed limits.

b. Ensure that the thrust levers match within 1/4 knob at takeoff power with the ENG EFC switch ON.
NOTE: The thrust levers check should be made after forward movement only.
a. Determine limit N1 as a function of OAT (Ref. Figure 205). The acceleration target N1A = N1 -4%. Start both
engines.
b. The bleed air ports on the test engine should be capped off or all bleed air flows on the test engine should be
OFF. The test engine generator should be OFF and the ignition is to be ON.
d. Stabilize the engine at 52% N2 for a minimum of 2 minutes prior to the acceleration check. Record acceleration
time beginning with the initial thrust lever movement and ending when engine N1 reaches N1A. Advance the
thrust lever smoothly to the maximum stop within one second. Repeat three times. Stall, surges, or flameout
characteristics, to a hazardous degree, should not be present.
CAUTION: Retard the thrust lever immediately when N1 reaches N1A to avoid engine overspeed.

f. Stabilize the engine for a minimum of two minutes prior to the acceleration check. Record acceleration time
beginning with initial thrust lever movement and ending when engine N1 reaches N1A. Advance the thrust lever
smoothly to the maximum stop within one second. Repeat three times. Stall, surges, or flameout characteristics,
to a hazardous degree, should not be present.
CAUTION: Retard the thrust lever immediately when N1 reaches N1A to avoid engine overspeed. Maximum
acceleration time allowed, for EFC ON and EFC OFF, is eight seconds.
b. Turn the CABIN PRESS switch to BOTH and turn the MASTER GEN switches ON.
NOTE: The engine should be able to reach limit % N1 with the EFC OFF.
b. Momentarily press the L and R EFC TEST switches. Check for a slight reduction of N2 RPM and an illumination
of the L and R ENG EFC OFF annunciators.

ENGINE BUILDUP
When building up an engine, determine whether the engine will be installed in a left or a right nacelle. The
maintenance procedures are separated; the basic buildup applies to both engines and the peculiar components
buildup applies to each engine individually.
The following installation precautions will not be repeated in the buildup instructions but should be followed
throughout the engine buildup.
a. Take extreme care to prevent dirt, hardware, tools or other foreign material from entering the engine.
b. Do not remove packings and gaskets from their packages until needed for assembly purposes.
c. Clean packings and gaskets prior to installation with dry air under pressure or with clean, lint-free rags. Do not
use solvents.
d. Visually inspect all packings and gaskets for cuts, nicks and other flaws prior to installation. In any case, do not
use packing and gaskets which have been damaged or altered.
e. Lubricate the gaskets, packings and back-up rings with the appropriate system fluid before installation.
f. Handle the fuel and oil lines carefully to avoid denting or scratching them. Be especially careful not to damage
the threads on the fittings and line coupling nuts.
g. Caps should not be removed from the lines until immediately before installation. If the lines are disconnected
for any reason, they should be capped until ready for reconnection. All installed lines, ducts and electrical
connectors that terminate with open ends should be capped or covered in a suitable manner to prevent the
entrance of dirt and foreign objects.
h. Before installing any part, be sure it is thoroughly clean. Brushes used for cleaning should not mar or scratch
the surface.
i. When making fuel and oil connections, apply anti-seize compound (1, Chart 2, 71-00-00) sparingly to male
threads. Do not allow the anti-seize compound to enter into the lines.
j. Do not twist the hose assemblies when installing. The stripe on the sides of the hose will show if any twist exists.
A twisted hose under pressure may fail or loosen.
k. It is important to use the correct size and type of clamps when securing hoses, tubing and wire bundles directly
to the engine or to the engine with brackets. If clamps of insufficient size are tightened excessively, the line may
be damaged and may not be able to slip through the clamps when the engine enlarges because of thermal
expansion. Route and clamp all lines as shown. This will aid in keeping line chafing to a minimum after engine
installation.
l. All electrical bonding, grounded and mating surfaces shall be clean metal surfaces free of anodic films, oxides,
grease, paint or other high resistance films. Whenever paint has been removed to make connections, the
connections other than actual terminal contacts should be refinished to prevent corrosion.
