    Propeller Owner's Manual 1. Description of Propeller and Systems Hartzell steel hub propellers covered in this manual are constant speed assemblies that use a steel hub as a central component (Figure 2-1). The propeller attaches to the engine through either a splined shaft or one of several flanged designs.

    Propeller Owner's Manual A. Constant Speed, Counterweighted, Nonfeathering Propellers Propeller models HC-82(X,V)(F,K,L)-1( )( ) and HC-83(X,V)20-1( )( ). Refer to Figure 2-6. Constant speed counterweighted, nonfeathering propellers are typically used on single engine aircraft. Propeller blade angle change is actuated by a hydraulic piston/cylinder combination mounted on the forward end of the propeller hub.
  • Page 56 Propeller Owner's Manual A governor is an engine speed-sensing device that maintains a constant engine/propeller RPM by changing blade angle and varying load on the engine. The governor uses an internal pump that is driven by an accessory drive from the engine. This pump uses engine lubricating oil and increases the engine oil pressure for supply to the propeller.

Constant speed, non-counterweighted, nonfeathering propellers are typically used on single engine aircraft. Propeller blade angle change is actuated by a hydraulic piston/cylinder combination mounted on the forward end of the propeller hub.
  • Page 60 Propeller Owner's Manual The governor uses an internal pump that is driven by an accessory drive from the engine. This pump uses an engine oil supply and increases the engine oil pressure for supply to the propeller. Engine speed sensing hardware within the governor controls the supply of oil to, or drain of oil from the propeller, resulting in a change of blade pitch to maintain constant engine speed.

    Propeller Owner's Manual C. Constant Speed and Feathering Propellers Propeller models HC-82(X,V)(F,K,L)-2( )( ), HC-83(X,V)F-2( )( ) and HC-83(X,V)20-2( )( ). Refer to Figures 2-7 and 2-8. A constant speed and feathering propeller is typically used on a twin engine aircraft. It is counterweighted, and is controlled by an engine speed-sensing device (governor) to maintain a constant engine/propeller RPM by changing blade angle and varying load on the engine.
  • Page 64 Propeller Owner's Manual Oil is metered by the governor to oppose these constant forces and maintain a constant engine RPM. The forces of the installed spring and counterweight attempt to rotate the blades to a higher blade angle. A governor is an engine speed-sensing device that maintains a constant engine/propeller RPM by changing blade angle and varying load on the engine.
  • Page 65 Propeller Owner's Manual It is undesirable to feather the propeller when the engine is stopped after landing. To prevent feathering during normal engine shut down, the propeller incorporates spring energized latches (start locks). If the propeller rotation is approximately 800 RPM or above, the latches are disengaged by centrifugal force acting on the latch weights to compress the springs.

    Propeller Owner's Manual D. Constant Speed, Feathering and Reversing Propellers (Internal Beta System) Propeller models HC-83(X,V)F-3( )( ) Refer to Figure 2-9. A constant speed, feathering and reversing propeller is typically used on a twin engine aircraft. It is counterweighted and uses internal and external reversing control hardware.

  • Page 68: Reversing System

    Propeller Owner's Manual The governor uses an internal pump that is driven by an accessory drive from the engine. This pump uses an engine oil supply and increases the engine oil pressure for supply to the propeller. Engine speed sensing hardware within the governor controls the supply of oil to, or drain of oil from the propeller, resulting in a change of blade pitch to maintain constant engine speed.
  • Page 69 Propeller Owner's Manual The lowest blade angle attainable by the governor is low pitch. An external valve and internal valve hydraulically control the low pitch stop and the blade angles between low pitch and reverse. Beta refers to the blade angle range between low pitch and full reverse blade angles.

  • Page 71: Aluminum Blade Model Identification

    Propeller Owner's Manual B. Aluminum Blade Model Identification Hartzell uses a model designation to identify specific blade assemblies. Example: HC-82VK-1D/V8433-7. A slash mark separates the propeller and blade model designations. The blade model designation is impression stamped on the blade butt end (internal) and is either on a decal or ink stamped on the blade camber side (external).

  • Page 75 Propeller Owner's Manual 3. Governors A. Theory of Operation (1) A governor is an engine RPM sensing device and high pressure oil pump. In a constant speed propeller system, the governor responds to a change in engine RPM by directing oil under pressure to the propeller hydraulic cylinder or by releasing oil from the hydraulic cylinder.

  • Page 80 Propeller Owner's Manual B. Propeller De-Ice System A propeller de-ice system is a system that permits ice to form, and then removes it by electrically heating the de-ice boots. The ice partially melts and is thrown from the blade by centrifugal force.
