Introduction
Special checks must be carried out before next or further flights in the event of an engine
fault (e.g. abnormal operation as defined in the Operators Manual) which impairs the
airworthiness of the engine.
ATTENTION
In the course of special checks specify if additional checks for components (e.g.
hydraulic governor) are applicable. After each special check/repair work, an
engine test run and a leakage check must be carried out.
ATTENTION
Observe without fail all the specified instructions.
