General Information
Theory of Operation
The primary elements of the Cargo Hook are the load beam, the internal mechanism, and a DC solenoid. The load beam supports the load and is latched through the internal mechanism. The DC solenoid and an external hydraulic release system provide the means for unlatching the load beam. The load is attached to the load beam by passing the cargo sling ring into the throat of the load beam and pushing the ring against the upper portion of the load beam throat, which will initiate the hook to close. In the closed position, a latch engages the load beam and latches it in this position. To release the load, the latch is disengaged from the load beam. With the latch disengaged, the weight of the load causes the load beam to swing to its open position, and the cargo sling slides off the load beam. The load beam then remains in the open position awaiting the next load. A load release can be initiated by three different methods. Normal release is achieved by pilot actuation of the push-button switch in the cockpit. When the push-button switch is pressed, it energizes the DC solenoid in the Cargo Hook, and the solenoid opens the latch in the internal mechanism. In an emergency, release can be achieved by operating a hydraulic release lever. The hydraulic release lever operates the internal mechanism of the Cargo Hook to unlatch the load beam. Ground personnel can release a load by actuating a lever located on the side of the Cargo Hook.

Hydraulic System Bleed Procedure
If there is a need to fill and/or bleed the system, follow the procedures listed below. Proper bleeding is critical to the operation of the hydraulic release system. An improperly bled system will not release the cargo hook mechanism. If you need to remove and repair any items in the hydraulic system, refer to 123021-00, Instruction for Continued Airworthiness Filling and bleeding the hydraulic release system is most easily accomplished on the bench, prior to installation on the aircraft. This process may also be accomplished after the system is installed. Filling and bleeding requires two persons, one to inject hydraulic fluid through the system and the other to observe the reservoir. Bleeding procedure: 1. Obtain the hydraulic hook bleed kit, 212-014-01. This kit consists of 2 ounces of MIL-PRF-5606 fluid, a syringe, a female barb fitting, a length of PVC tubing, and a bleed adapter fitting. The bleed kit is included in new Hydraulic Hook kits. Assemble the bleed kit by press fitting each component as shown.
Figure 2.7.1 Hydraulic Hook Bleed Kit
Bleed Adapter
PVC Tubing Female X Barb Fitting Syringe
2.
If the system is already installed on the aircraft, place an absorbent towel under the master cylinder. If the master cylinder is not installed on the aircraft, lightly clamp the master cylinder in a vise to hold it in a vertical position and position the slave cylinder so that its level is below that of the master cylinder.
Use best shop practices to keep foreign material out of the hydraulic system. FOD will plug orifices, damage seals and/or scratch sealing surfaces necessitating system rebuild. Use only clean hydraulic fluid from sealed containers.

6. Fill the syringe with approximately 35 cc of MIL-PRF-5606 fluid and purge any remaining air in the syringe and tubing. Screw the end of the bleed adapter into the screw hole on the slave cylinder to create a tight seal. See figure 2.7.5. 7. While observing the reservoir, slowly push on the syringe plunger to force fluid through the slave cylinder, hydraulic hose, and up to the master cylinder reservoir. There will be some resistance during fillingthis is normal.
Injecting the fluid into the system too rapidly may cause the fluid to spray up and out of the master cylinder reservoir. Wear safety glasses when observing fluid reservoir while filling.

. 8. Continue to force fluid into the master cylinder reservoir until the reservoir is approximately half full.
If bleeding an already filled system, you may need to draw fluid from the master cylinder reservoir during this step to prevent overflow. 9. Remove the bleed adapter from the screw hole. Re-install the Thread-Seal (P/N 510-740-00), washers (P/N 510-209-00) and screw (P/N 510-694-00), see Figure 2.7.6. Figure 2.7.6Screw Re-installation

Installation Instructions
2.7 Hydraulic System Bleed Procedure continued
11. Very slowly pull the release lever on the master cylinder and watch for bubbles. If bubbles are observed rising within the reservoir, continue to slowly cycle the lever until there are no more. Actuating the lever releases air trapped within the master cylinder.
Pull the lever very slowly! When the reservoir is not baffled and capped, a hard pull will cause fluid to erupt over the edge of the reservoir. 12. Check the system for air by actuating the lever firmly until it bottoms out. Check the push rod position (see Figure 2.7.7). If some of the green area on the push rod is visible, proceed to step 13. If some of the green on the push rod is not visible with the lever completely pulled, the system has too much air in it and needs further bleeding. To do this, repeat steps 5 11. Figure 2.7.7 Checking System for Air
Some of the green ring must be visible.
13. After the system is properly bled, verify that the reservoir is approximately half full of hydraulic fluid. Fluid should be visible above the baffle. 14. Re-install the baffle, and the reservoir lid. 15. Check the system for proper operation. Fully actuate the release lever. The hook must open and the lever must have a firm feel. 16. Disassemble and thoroughly clean the bleed kit with isopropyl alcohol. Allow it to dry. Not cleaning the syringe will render it unusable. Reassemble and store for next use.

2.8 Installation Check-out
After installation of the Cargo Hook Kit, activate the circuit breaker to turn the system on. Refer to Operation Instructions. Perform the following functional checks. 1. Swing the installed Cargo Hook to ensure that the hydraulic release hose, the load cell harness (if installed) and the electrical release harness have enough slack to allow full swing of the cargo hook. The harnesses and hose must NOT be the stops that prevent the Cargo Hook from swinging freely in all directions. 2. Pull and fully actuate the hydraulic release lever on the pilots cyclic stick and verify it does not contact or interfere with operation any cyclic stick control. 3. With no load on the cargo hook load beam, pull the lever-operated cargo hook hydraulic release. The Cargo Hook should release. Reset the cargo hook load beam. Check the hydraulic system for any signs of leaking hydraulic fluid. If leakage is found, do not use the system until the leak has been fixed. 4. Close the cargo hook release circuit breaker and position the battery switch to the ON position. With no load on the cargo hook load beam, depress the cargo hook electrical release button. The Cargo Hook should release. Reset the cargo hook load beam. 5. Ensure that the hydraulic hose and wire harnesses are secured clear of flight control rods and hydraulic lines. The installers authorized inspector (AI) must accomplish both a satisfactory ground and flight EMI test for each installation. (Ref AC: 25-10 paragraph 5(m) and 5(n). Special emphasis is needed for those helicopters equipped with electronic fuel control, electronic stability augmentation systems, electronic flight controls, or any other electronic device which could affect the rotor craft safety. In the US, fill in FAA form 337 for the initial installation. This procedure may vary in different countries. Make the appropriate aircraft log book entry. Insert the Rotorcraft Flight Manual Supplement 121028-00 into the Rotorcraft Flight Manual.

Section 3 Operation Instructions
Operating Procedures
Prior to each job perform the following: 1. Ensure that the Cargo Hook has been properly installed and that the hydraulic hose, load cell (if installed) and electrical release harnesses do not limit the movement of the hook. 2. Be completely familiar with this manual, particularly the Cargo Hook rigging section. 3. Be completely familiar with all MD Helicopter cargo hook operating instructions. 4. Activate the electrical system and press the release button to ensure the cargo hook electrical release is operating correctly. The cargo hook should release. Reset the cargo hook load beam by hand after release. If the load beam does not release or re-latch do not use the unit until the difficulty is resolved.
The release solenoid in the cargo hook is intended to be energized only intermittently. Depressing the electrical release button continuously in excess of 20 seconds will cause the release solenoid to overheat, possibly causing permanent damage. 5. Activate the release lever assembly located on the cyclic stick to test the cargo hook hydraulic release mechanism. Reset the cargo hook load beam by hand after release. If the load beam does not re-latch do not use the unit until the difficulty is resolved. See the Service Manual 122-015-00, ICA 123-021-00 and the MD Helicopter service instructions that cover the original Cargo Hook installation for additional instructions.
Operation Instructions

Cargo Hook Loading
The cargo hook can easily be loaded with one hand. A load is attached to the hook by pushing the ring upward against the upper portion of the load beam throat, as illustrated in Figure 3.1, until an internal latch engages the load beam and latches it in the closed position.
Figure 3.1 Cargo Hook Loading
Cargo Hook Rigging
Extreme care must be exercised when rigging a load to the Cargo Hook. Steel load rings are recommended to provide consistent release performance and resistance to fouling. The following illustration shows the recommended rigging, but is not intended to represent all rigging possibilities.
Some combinations of small primary rings and large secondary rings could cause fouling during release. It is the responsibility of the operator to assure the cargo hook will function properly with each rigging.
Nylon type straps (or similar material) or rope must not be used directly on the cargo hook load beam. If nylon straps or rope must be used they should be first attached to a steel primary ring. Verify that the ring will freely slide off the load beam when it is opened. Only the primary ring should be in contact with the cargo hook load beam. 3-2 Operation Instructions
