Inspection and Maintenance — GEK 107048
Operation 18 — How to Remove Upper Half Second and Third Stage Nozzle Radial Retaining
Pins
Note: The second stage nozzle radial retaining pins are secured to the turbine
casing by threaded plugs which are screwed into the casing, each plug
is staked in two places.
The third stage nozzle radial retaining pins are secured in position by
plates secured to the turbine casing by hex head bolts with lockplates.
The retaining pins are drilled and tapped so that a bolt can be screwed
into the head and a puller can be used to extract the retaining pins.
1. Remove the second stage nozzle threaded plugs and the retaining pins.
2. Remove the holding plates which secure the third stage nozzle radial retaining pins and remove
the retaining pins. If pins are not stamped for location, stamp them.
Operation 19 — How to Remove Upper Half Second and Third Stage Nozzle Segments
1. Each nozzle segment can be removed from the turbine casing by "rolling" it out individually on
its outer sidewall forward and aft hook fits. Each diaphragm segment is removed along with its
adjacent nozzle segment as one piece. Mark each segment per Inspection Form PGS/GT-FF-6099
and 6102 numbering sequence.
Note: The turbine casing should be on its forward vertical flange for nozzle
segment removal.
2. Tools required for nozzle removal are: pulley assembly, one-ton "come-along," and 0.375 in. di-
ameter wire rope or fiber sling.
3. Commence by attaching the cable to the nozzle segment closest to the horizontal joint. Remove
the nozzle segment using a one-ton "come-along".
4. Attach the one-ton "come-along" to a suitable support point. Continue on the remaining nozzle
segments and remove in a similar manner, as described per Operation 15, step 3 thru 8.
CAUTION
At all points where the segment and pulling cable come in
contact, there should be ample padding to distribute the
load and protect the partition surfaces. wood, rubber or
padded steel plates can be used.
