(i) Autofeatheradjustment
(1.) Location:Insideenginecontrolspedestalon powerlevercables.
(2.) Place a stripof masking orother suitable tapeon upper pedestalcoverbetweenpower

levers. (3.) Startbothengines. (4.) Advance bothpowerleversto 80 to 83 percent Ng. Markpower lever positionon tape. (5.) Shutdown engines. (6.) Set power levers to position marked ontape. (7.) Remove enginecontrolspedestalaccesscovers.
CAUTION:  WHENPOSITIONINGMICROSWITCHACTUATINGCYLINDER,CHECK THATSET SCREWS INCYLINDERDO NOT INTERFEREWITHSWITCH ROLLERS.
NOTE:Theautofeathermicroswitchmountingholesareslotted.Fine adjustments canbe madeby changing switchposition.
(8.) Referto Figure 513. Positionactuatingcylinderso it just makescontactwith autofeather switchroller. Tighten setscrews. (9.) Startengines.
(a.) PositionAUTOFEATHERARMswitchto ARM.
NOTE: Toarm autofeather system,bothpowerlevers must be advanced from 80 to 83percent Ng. Bothtorquemetersmust exceed 675foot-poundsand both bleedairpressuresmust exceed 22psig.
(b.) Advanceboth power levers.
(c.) Check that ARM-AUTOFEATHER lightcomesonbetween80and83 percent Ng.

(j) Checkengineaccelerationmatch.
(1.) Run engines. Advancepower levers. Check that both engines accelerate the same. (2.) To adjust:
(a.) Check that engine controls are rigged correctly.
(b.) If rigging is correct, suspect the slow engine.
1 Check fuel control unitgovernor air pressure(Py) bleed tubefor leaks or restrictions. (Figure 1) 2 Check fuel control unit compressor discharge (P3)deliverytube for leaks or restrictions. a Check P3 filter. Replace as required.
(3.) If adjustments abovefail to correctunevenengineacceleration,refer to Pratt& Whitney Maintenance Manual, p/n 3034342.
(k) Powerlever stagger.
(1.) Cause: Uneven demand for fuel between engines. (2.) Adjust length of powerlever control cablewhenstagger is uniform betweentorquesof 300 and 1000 foot-pounds.
NOTE:  Beforeadjustingfuel control unit serratedspacer,scribe a lightreferenceacross serratedparts.
NOTE: Refer to Rigging Of Rear Linkage, Fuel Control Unit, And Propeller Control Cam Assembly, this section for detailed serrated spacer adjustments.
(3.) Adjust fuel control unitfuel control armserratedspacer when stagger increasesas power levers move forward. (Figure 509)

(I) Powerleverknobsplit check.
(1.) Start both engines.
(2.) Set propellercontrolleversto maximum propellerrpm(Np)position.
(3.) Increase poweruntil Np is 1900 rpm on both engines.
(4.) Note relativepositionof power lever knobs and any difference in engine torque.
