WARM-UP AND GROUND TEST.
1. Idle engine at 1500 to 1700 RPM until oil pressure reaches 50 PSI minimum. * 2. Throttle, INCREASE to smoothly advance rotor speed to 167 RPM (1500 engine RPM) then close throttle to fully engage clutch.
(Tachometer needles synchronized.)
Avoid continuous operation at rotor speed of 200 to 230 RPM to mini-
mize stabilizer bar resonance. Apply

sufficient cyclic control into the wind to maintain the rotor in a near horizontal plane. 3. Increase engine RPM to approximately 2300 and hold until oil temperature reaches 40C minimum. 4. Check magnetos at 3200 RPM and miniwith
mum pitch after head temperature reaches

100C. A drop of 200 RPM is permissible no engine roughness.
TURBO-SUPERCHARGER AND OPERATION. FUNCTION
The turbo-supercharger is essentially an air

pump that increases the density of the carbu11
retor inlet air over a wide range of atmospheric
conditions. The supercharger

corporates a hydraulically
assembly in-
powered waste gate
control which automatically compensates for altitude and temperature inlet variations by
opening and closing the waste gate. At full
throttle, this control will provide the required

amount of supercharging to allow the engine to
produce the approximate take-off power from sea level to critical altitude for all temperature variations. The supercharger compressor
pressure will vary from 30 to 40 in. Hg. depending upon climatic conditions. At sea level on a cold day the reading will be low and on a hot day and at altitude the reading will be high.
The full throttle normal difference between compressor pressure and manifold pressure
is approximately 2 in. Hg.
ENGINE POWER CHECK.
After lift off from surface establish an in

ground effect hovering altitude of approximately 2 feet. Check manifold pressure gage and note
No. 2 COMPressor PRESSure indicator reading, then check No. 1 MANifold PRESSure which is the power required to hover reading. Determine the actual difference between the two
readings and subtract the normal difference of

2 in. Hg. The pressure
No. 1 and No. 2 indicators
reading between the

after subtracting the
normal
difference
is
the EXCESS POWER
AVAILABLE
in In. Hg. MAP. IDLE CHECK.
ENGINE - ALTITUDE
The altitude
12
idle check should be performed
prior to accomplishing altitude flights to insure
against engine stoppage. This is necessary as the

supercharger will not provide the required pressure, at low RPM, to maintain the normal fuel-air ratio and therefore the engine will be operating with a RICH mixture and subject to overloading and stoppage when the throttle is closed. Accomplish the check as follows: 1. Operate the helicopter in an In-GroundEffect hovering altitude, at 3200 RPM, until
temperatures stabilize.
2. Descend to establish ground contact, maintaining 3200 RPM, by reducing collective
pitch.
3. CLOSE THROTTLE and check engine idle RPM, with no rotor load, for reading of 2000 to 2100 idle RPM. Note
When operating at altitude retard throttle slowly and maintain approximately 2000 RPM to preclude engine stoppage.

NGINE SHUT-DOWN PROCEDURE.
1. Operate TVO-435-B1 engine at 2200 to
2300 RPM for 5 minutes or longer after landing

to reduce la. oil and exhaust temperatures and
hereby prolong supercharger service life.

Idle TVO-435-D1 engine until cylinder
head temperature drops approximately 25C.

2. Cyclic control stick, CENTERED or lightly into direction of wind. 3. Engine, stop by moving mixture control to CUT-OFF. 4. Ignition switch, OFF after engine stops.
Note
When operating under conditions requiring frequent battery starts, it is permissible to stop the engine by turning the ignition switch to OFF. This will decrease the drain on the battery; however,
it must be understood that this procedure may result in after firing.

5. Increase main rotor pitch, not to exceed
CAUTION
1/3 the range, to reduce rotor RPM.
In high winds increase pitch carefully and do not exceed 1/3 the pitch range. Apply cyclic control stick into the wind to maintain the rotor in a near horizontal
attitude.
6. Moor aft blade with mooring block by
drawing down lightly against static stop and

tying web strap to tail boom.
Revised March 31, 1967 15
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
HYDRAULIC BOOST FAILURE.
Hydraulic boost failure will be evident by feedback forces being transmitted to the cyclic
stick when a control motion is back forces may not be present gible when the cyclic stick is during autorotation. Feed-back
made. Feedor are negliheld fixed or forces en-
countered when moving the cyclic stick will be proportionate in intensity to an envelope of
factors directly affected by airspeed, gross

weight and climatic turbulence. When hydraulic
boost power loss is detected, reduce cyclic control motions to the minimum required to
complete the flight and MAKE NECESSARY
AT A RATE OF TRAVEL NOT MOVEMENTS
FASTER THAN ONE FULL DISPLACEMENT, stop to stop, PER SECOND. If jamming of the controls or a condition of the
controls tending to override the pilot is experienced the HYD (hydraulic) SYSTEM switch, located on the instrument panel, should be immediately moved to OFF to relieve hydraulic
pressure at the cylinders. The jammed cylinder

may then be broken loose by exerting pressure on the control stick and the above emergency
procedure followed.
ENGINE FAILURE.
Execute a normal autorotative descent and

establish a level attitude prior to ground contact. At a height of approximately 10 feet
16
pply collective pitch in sufficient quantity to
stop descent as ground contact is made.

SUPERCHARGER MALFUNCTION.
Supercharger operation can be monitored by the No. 2 COMPressor needle on the manifold pressure gage. A malfunction of the supercharger will immediately be noticeable by either
a HIGH or LOW, No. 2 needle, indication and
immediate action should be initiated as follows:

HIGH COMPRESSOR READING
Throttle - DECREASE obtainminimumpower to

required, to avoid exceeding engine limits and thereby permit safe completion of flight.
LOW COMPRESSOR READING
Throttle - INCREASE to offset power loss and to obtain the power required to safely complete the flight.
TAIL ROTOR FAILURE.
1. Immediately initiate an autorotative descent and maintain an airspeed of at least 40

MPH.
2. Execute a normal autorotative descent

and landing.
DITCHING WITHOUT POWER.
1. Execute a normal autorotative descent and establish contact at minimum surface speed. 2. Apply full lateral stick to the RIGHT to roll the helicopter onto the RIGHT side. 17/18
I
The Bell Model 47G-3B-1 is a dependable, versatile, utility type helicopter with the ability to provide both low and high altitude performance over a wide range of climatic conditions. This
performance is made possible by the Lycoming I

r Engine TV0435-B1 or TV0435-D1 with an Air
Research exhaust driven supercharger.
This
combination is capable of delivering rated power at high ambient temperatures and high altitudes.
The performance capabilities of the helicopter under varying climatic conditions and gross
weights are shown on the charts to provide useful information conducting flight operations. Note Temperature values shown on the contained in
ehis section. The data listed on the charts is erived from actual flight test and is intended
to be used in

NIGHT FLYING.
The Night Flying Kit No. 47-706-653 consists of a ground adjustable landing light, two rotating
anti-collision beacon lights, navigation lights, cockpit lights, instrument lights, electrical cables, circuit breaker switches and the required hardware. Installation of the kit will permit night flying operations when ground contact flight conditions can be maintained. The beacon lights will provide a significant increase in the conspicuity of the helicopter, which is especially desirable due to the continued increase in air traffic density, and are now required by the current Civil Air Regulations. SECTION 1 OPERATING LIMITATIONS
CENTER OF GRAVITY LIMITS Actual weight change shall be determined after
kit is installed and ballast readjusted, if necessary, to return empty weight CGwithin allow-
able limits.
NIGHT FLIGHT LIMITATIONS.
Night flight operation is limited to visual contact flight conditions. Orientation shallbe maintained through visual reference to ground objects solely as a result of lights on the ground
or adequate celestial illumination.

NOTE
Turn beacon light OFF during flight in or near
Keep cabin glass clean to prevent
halation. Limit operation of beacon

lights on the ground, to prolong bulb life and to avoid mistaken identity as an emergency ground vehicle which uses a similar light. SECTION 2 NIGHT FLIGHT. OPERATING PROCEDURES
