Page 63
Maintenance Manual E4.08.04 Governor Interface: This EECU is able to actuate the electric motor which changes the governor-set point. According to power lever position the related propeller speed is controlled by the EECU see Fig. 01-18. A more detailed description can be found in section Governor Functional description. As long as the actual propeller speed is different to the predefined propeller set point curve, the EECU provides a signal to drive the electric motor which is part of the governor.
Page 64
Maintenance Manual E4.08.04 The governor must have two mechanical stops which can be detected by the EECU through sensing pins. If one of these stops is reached the electric motor will not be actuated into the direction of the detected stop, only movement into direction of the opposite stop is possible. The EECU also detects mechanical jamming of the electrical motor.

Maintenance Manual E4.08.04 Chapter 51-00-00 Standard Practices 51-00-10 Safety Wiring Safety wire is used to secure fasteners to prevent them from coming lose. It's used a lot in aviation and racing. To safety wire fasteners you will need safety wire, safety wire pliers, wire cutters (dykes), and needle nose pliers.
Maintenance Manual E4.08.04 51-00-12 Single Wire Safe Tying Insert the wire through each part consecutively in the direction that will prevent the part from loosening. Draw the wire tightly around each bend and twist the ends into a tight pigtail close to one of the safe tied parts.
Maintenance Manual E4.08.04 Fig. 51 - 4 51-00-14 Double Wire Safety Wiring Using Pliers Start by looping the wire through the fastener, using a little extra wire, because you don't want to be short at the end. Loop the wire coming out of the bottom hole around the bolt head clockwise and pull the wire tight with needle nose pliers in the direction of the second bolt.
Maintenance Manual E4.08.04 51-00-20 Torque Standards The importance of correct torque application cannot be overemphasized. Under torque can result in unnecessary wear of nuts and bolts, as well as the parts they secure. Over torque can cause failure of a bolt or nut from overstressing the threaded areas. Uneven or additional loads that are applied to the assembly may result in wear or premature failure.

Maintenance Manual E4.08.04 Torque wrench with various adapters. Fig. 51 - 10 Elimination of friction in interference fit applications may sometimes be attained by placing the bolt in a freezer prior to installation. When this procedure is used, the bolt should be allowed to warm up to ambient temperature before torque.
These work steps must be taken with utmost care. Wrong maintenance of the engine can cause heavy engine damage even to engine stop during aviation. To award the warranty approved parts from the Austro Engine GmbH must be used. Issue date: 11-Aug-2011...

Maintenance Manual E4.08.04 85-10-65 Inspection Overview: To describe the investigation points an overview of the two-mass-flywheel is given in the following picture. The flywheel is build up out of two discs (masses) which are connected together with springs at the inside of the bigger disc. The bigger disc with the starter and pick up ring is called primary mass and sign with the number 1 (E4A-73-300-201-002) in the following figure.
Page 275
Maintenance Manual E4.08.04 Fig. 85 - 36 Two-Mass-Flywheel (Back Side) Starter and Pick-up ring: Starter and Pick-up ring are located at the outside contour of the primary mass. The pick-up ring has a gap of two teeth which are required for engine speed measuring. Fig.
Page 276
Maintenance Manual E4.08.04 Visual Inspection: Before the two-mass-flywheel is cleaned a visual inspection has to be done. The two-mass-flywheel must not have any traces of thermal damage at the rear side or at the outside coverage. Otherwise the two-mass-flywheel has to be replaced. Friction control cam (E4A-73-212-402): Residual of molten plastic between primary and secondary mass of the two-mass-flywheel.
Page 277
Maintenance Manual E4.08.04 Wear of the inner rivet head: Due to possible interference between the inner components of the primary mass with the rivets which connect the primary with the secondary mass an additional visual and dimensional inspection is required. min.
Page 278
Maintenance Manual E4.08.04 Friction traces: The gap between primary and secondary mass has to be checked. If there are traces of wear at the surface of the primary mass, caused by friction of the secondary mass at the surface of the primary mass, the two-mass-flywheel has to be replaced.
Page 279
Maintenance Manual E4.08.04 Bearing Friction Ring: The friction ring has to be in the correct position. If the friction ring has contact to the bearing bushing as seen in the following figure the ring has to be repositioned. Therefore lift the secondary mass slightly thus the ring can be repositioned with a small screwdriver.
Page 280
Maintenance Manual E4.08.04 For further operation of the Two-Mass Flywheel the ring has to be reworked. Use a sharp knife to cut off the ragged area of the ring. If the width of the ring is less than 50% or the ring gets broken, the Two-Mass-Flywheel has to be replaced.
Page 281

Page 282
Maintenance Manual E4.08.04 Starter ring: Traces of wearing or damage at the gear tooth of the starter ring. If traces are present the two-mass- flywheel has to be replaced. Less than 95% of the present volume of each tooth is not acceptable. If teeth are damaged the starter has to be checked.
Page 283
Maintenance Manual E4.08.04 Balancing weights: If the balancing weights are missing the two-mass-flywheel has to be replaced. This is noticeable if weld points can be seen without the balancing weights. If the weld points are broken the flywheel has to be replaced as well. Fig.
Page 284
Maintenance Manual E4.08.04 Mechanical Inspection: To control the mechanical function the two-mass-flywheel has to be tested in a special testing rig – AEP-0061. The wheel is build up and fixed with its primary mass and loaded with defined torque loads. The deflection between the primary and secondary mass will be measured at the defined torque (see Table 1) and recorded.
Page 285
Maintenance Manual E4.08.04 Fig. 85 - 51 To measure the deflection between the primary and secondary mass an angle measuring instrument is attached at the input shaft. Fig. 85 - 52 The torque will be attached with a torque wrench at the angle measuring instrument according to the required torque values in Table 1: Tolerance Values.
Page 286
Maintenance Manual E4.08.04 Before the measuring is started the spring packages at the inside of the two-mass-flywheel have to be positioned. Therefore the flywheel has to be turned not more than three times into the desired direction with a torque of about 350 Nm. After this the angle measuring system has to be reset to null.
Page 287
