Ground Support Equipment

Aircraft ground support equipment in this category is indexed by exact tool number and recorded maintenance purpose. The range covers dedicated handling, lifting, supporting, servicing and protection equipment used while an aircraft or component is on the ground. These tools are separate catalogue positions: a similar shape or general function does not establish that one fixture can replace another.

Maintenance tools for controlled component handling

Current listings include 140-9807-10 main rotor hub support, 140-9807-20 swashplate support, 140-9908-00 TV3-117 lifting beam and 24-9801-00 blade transport trolley. Other records cover pipeline plug sets, hydraulic service connections and oil-collection fixtures. Each designation points to a specific task and must remain complete when the item is identified.

Match the tool to the maintenance procedure

Selection should follow the aircraft or component documentation, drawing reference and approved workshop procedure. Load interface, attachment point, geometry and intended operation may differ even between tools used on the same assembly. Photographs are useful for comparing labels and construction, but they do not replace the exact reference.

• copy the complete tool or fixture designation;
• name the aircraft, engine or serviced assembly;
• state the required maintenance operation;
• attach photographs or a drawing reference;
• specify quantity and documentation requirements.
