    This document is a revision to a commercial engine service memorandum from CFM International regarding periodic maintenance of fan disks and blades on CFM56-7B engines. It recommends cleaning, inspecting, and lubricating the fan blades and disk every 3000 flight cycles or 5000 flight hours to reduce wear and vibration. The revision clarifies the purpose and removes specific instructions, referring mechanics to the appropriate shop manuals instead.

    CFM56-7B COMMERCIAL ENGINE SERVICE MEMORANDUM No.005 REVISION 3

    SUBJECT: FAN DISK AND FAN ROTOR BLADE – ON-WING PERIODIC MAINTENANCE ACTION

    September 09, 2005

    This page transmits Revision 3 to CFM56-7B CESM No.005 dated May 02, 2000,
    Revision 1 dated April 4, 2002 and Revision 2 dated March 25, 2005.

    This Commercial Engine Service Memorandum has been revised to clarify its purpose
    and avoid potential inconsistency in the accomplishment instructions. The Engine
    Shop Manual and the Aircraft Maintenance provide the appropriate instructions to
    perform the parts removal, cleaning, inspection, lubrication and installation.
    Accordingly, these instructions have been deleted from CESM.

    The vertical dash in the left-hand margin indicates change. A change, which does
    not affect technical content, may not be highlighted in the Transmittal Sheet.

    This Commercial Engine Service Memorandum is reissued in its entirety.


    ENGINES MODEL: ALL COMMERCIAL CFM56-7B
    ENGINE MODELS
    SECTION/No: MAINTENANCE No. 005
    SUBJECT: FAN DISK AND FAN ROTOR
    BLADE – ON-WING PERIODIC
    MAINTENANCE ACTION

    1. DESCRIPTION OF SUBJECT

    Lack of lubricant at Fan Blades / Fan Disk interface may lead to excessive
    wear on the fan disk dovetail pressure faces, and on the fan blade root
    thermal sprayed coating. In addition, lack of lubricant can also be the
    cause for increased vibration levels.

    2. PURPOSE

    The purpose of this CESM is to recommend a periodic on-wing maintenance


    action. Periodic cleaning, inspection and lubrication of the fan blades and
    fan disk allow to reduce maintenance cost by reducing the wear on these
    parts, and by reducing variation in engine fan vibration levels.

    3. EFFECTIVITY

    This CESM applies to all commercial CFM56-7B engine models and is addressed
    to all commercial CFM56-7B operators.

    4. DISCUSSION AND RECOMMENDATION

    CFM International recommends the following on-wing maintenance action to be


    taken on all installed engines at periodic intervals, or when excessive low
    pressure rotor vibration level is encountered. The task interval or
    threshold may be adjusted by each operator based on its own aircraft
    maintenance program taking into account the CFM maximum recommended
    interval of 3000 flight cycles or 5000 flight hours whichever comes
    first.

    NOTE: The recommended interval is based on CFM experience to date. Please


    report results so that improvements can be shared with all operators.

    A. Remove and clean the fan blades and associated hardware per Boeing
    737-600/700/800/900 Aircraft Maintenance Manual section 72-21-01
    (Spinner cones – Removal/Installation) and 72-21-02 instructions (fan
    blade–Removal/Installation).

    B. Inspect the fan rotor blades and associated hardware per Boeing
    737-600/700/800/900 Aircraft Maintenance Manual section 72-21-01
    (Spinner cones – Inspection/check) and 72-21-02 instructions (fan
    blades – Inspection/check). For the fan disk dovetail slot pressure
    face inspection for wear, refer to the Service Bulletin 72-0525
    instructions.

    C. Lubricate and install the fan rotor blades and associated hardware per
    Boeing 737-600/700/800/900 Aircraft Maintenance Manual section 72-21-02
    instructions (fan blades – Removal/Installation).
