bischoffm Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Are you saying the generator came loose from the gearbox, or did the generator come apart? Three times? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hehe Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Are you using the correct nuts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinyclark Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I can only see it as a hardware issue. Is this only on one engine generator? Maybe it is excess vibration. I have no information on the hardware installation. That is in T.O. 8A6-9-5-3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinyclark Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 I don't work anymore and couldn't send it to you anyway. You would have to contact your Foreign Military Sales person and see if you can get a copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spectre623 Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 You might want to check out all parts of the generator disconnect set up. Stub shaft and such. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
