5. Safe Handling of Paints and Chemicals

A. Instructions for Use
(1) Always use caution when handling or being exposed to paints and/or chemicals
during propeller overhaul and/or maintenance procedures.
(2) Before using paint or chemicals, always read the manufacturer's label on
the container(s) and follow specified instructions and procedures for storage,
preparation, mixing, and/or application.
(3) Refer to the product's Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for detailed
information about the physical properties, health, and physical hazards of any
paint or chemical.

6. Calendar Limits and Long Term Storage

A. Calendar Limits
(1) The effects of exposure to the environment over a period of time create a
need for propeller overhaul regardless of flight time.
(2) A calendar limit between overhauls is specified in Hartzell Propeller Inc. Service
Letter HC-SL-61-61Y.
(3) Experience has shown that special care, such as keeping an aircraft in a
hangar, is not sufficient to permit extension of the calendar limit.
(4) The start date for the calendar limit is when the propeller is first installed on an
engine.
(5) The calendar limit is not interrupted by subsequent removal and/or storage.
(6) The start date for the calendar limit must not be confused with the warranty
start date, that is with certain exceptions, the date of installation by the first
retail customer.
B. Long Term Storage
(1) Propellers that have been in storage have additional inspection requirements
before installation. Refer to the Packaging and Storage chapter of Hartzell
Propeller Inc. Standard Practices Manual 202A (61-01-02).
