minutes there is a fuel leak indication that does not
go more than 100mm in any direction.
(b) Heavy leakage: Dry the area of the leak. After 10
minutes there is a fuel leak indication that is
between 100mm and 180mm in any direction.
(c) Continuous leakage: Dry the area of the leak.
After 10 minutes there is a fuel leak indication that is
more than 180mm in any direction.
Leakage Type and Location
The correct procedure for the leakage type and
location is given in the Table that follows:
Check for Air in the Green/Blue/Yellow Hydraulic System (TASK 29-00-00-210-001)

Pressurize the Green hydraulic system until the hydraulic pressure is stable. Depressurize the Green
hydraulic system and let the hydraulic reservoir level become stable in 1 minute. Make sure that the
reservoir is pressurized to a minimum of 50 psi. If necessary pressurize it.
Read the gage of the Green reservoir and record the fluid level. Depressurize the reservoir of the Green
hydraulic system. After 5 minutes read the gage of the Green reservoir again and record the fluid level.

Check Fluid Level on Reservoir Indicators (TASK 29-10-00-200-001)
Make sure the aircraft is in this configuration: speed brakes and spoilers retracted, thrust reversers
closed, cargo compartment door closed, all accumulators empty of fluid and pressurized with nitrogen to
the correct pressure, reservoirs pressurized to 50 psig, landing gear extended with the doors closed (one
main door of the main gear can be open), the position of the other hydraulic services is not important.
Look at the contents indicator on each reservoir and make sure that it shows:
- Yellow reservoir (with the brake accumulator empty of fluid and precharged with nitrogen) - 15 l
- Yellow reservoir (with the brake accumulator full of fluid at system working pressure) - 12 l
- Green reservoir (14 l) - Blue reservoir (6 l)
NOTE: These levels are for fluid temperatures between 10 and 20 deg.C (50 and 68 deg.F). If the
temperature is out of these limits, the volume of the fluid changes: - 0.5 l for 10 deg.C in the Green and
Yellow hydraulic systems, - 0.25 l for 10 deg.C in the Blue hydraulic system.

absorber. (b) If you did not find damage, do one of these procedures: - replace the shock absorber gland
seals, or - replace the shock absorber, or - close the spare-seal activating-valve.

NOTE: It is recommended that ALL gland seals on the applicable MLG are replaced at a subsequent
scheduled maintenance procedure.
Check of the External Leaks of the Hydraulic Components (TASK 29-00-00-790-001)
NOTE: - A leak is the quantity of fluid that comes out of a component that is sufficient to become a drop
or drops, or will possibly become a drop (approximately 20 drops = 1 cc). - A leakage is a quantity of
fluid on the surface of a component that is not sufficient to become a drop. - A stain is an area on the
surface of a component that has a different color. It is usually caused when fluid leakage becomes dry on
the component surface after high temperature operation.
NOTE: Do a check of the dynamic seals of pistons, slide valves and swivel joints with the system
pressurized, but do not operate the components. The dynamic seals move only with a short time interval,
and some cannot easily be monitored when they operate.
NOTE: If it is necessary to do a check of the external leaks of the engine driven pumps, do an engine run
of the applicable engine as follows: (a) Start the engine and let it become stable for 5 minutes. (b)
Operate the engine at 75 percent N1 and let it become stable for 5 minutes. (c) Operate the engine at
minimum idle and let it become stable for 5 minutes. (d) Stop the engine.
TASK
(1) Operate the component.
(2) Do an inspection of the component for external leaks. If you find leaks, you must compare the
quantity of the leaks with the values given in the

table below:
NOTE: 1. For the elevator and the aileron
servocontrols, two leaks of more than the usual
operation limit are not permitted on the same
flight surface.
NOTE: 2. Make sure that the connection is tight
and the correct torque value is applied.
NOTE: 3. The total leaks from the components
and the connections, that are part of the
alternate brake system, must not be more than 10 drops/min.
NOTE: 4. Obey the subsequent leakage limits for the Yaw Damper Servo-Actuators: - If the leakage rate
is less than 4 drops per minute, no more steps are necessary - If the leakage rate is between 4 and 14
drops per minute, replace the yaw damper servo-actuator(s) before the subsequent 600 flight hours and
- If the leakage rate is between 15 and 30 drops per minute, replace the yaw damper servo-actuator(s)
before the subsequent 100 flight hours - If the leakage rate is more than 30 drops per minute, replace the
yaw damper servo-actuator(s) immediately.
NOTE: 5. A leak rate of 10 drops per minute is permitted, if the temperature is less than -40 deg.C (-
40.00 deg.F).
(3) System leak rate limits
(a) Usual leak rate limits: The total leak rate of the Green, Yellow and Blue systems must not be more
than 50 drops/min. If the temperature at the subsequent airport is less than -20 deg.C (-4.00 deg.F) fill
the applicable reservoir to the maximum level shown on the reservoir. Make sure that the drops of
hydraulic fluid do not fall on electrical equipment.
(b) Dispatch leak rate limits with a system leak rate of between 50 and 100 drops/min. Aircraft dispatch is
permitted if all of these rules are obeyed: The reservoir of the applicable system is full. The component
leak rate is less than the dispatch limit of 100 drops/min. One hydraulic system only has component
leaks of more than 50 drops/min. Do a check of the hydraulic reservoir levels. The drops of hydraulic fluid
do not fall on electrical equipment. Do these checks again before each flight.
(c) The total leak rate for the Green, Blue and Yellow systems must not be more than 100 drops/min.
