Together these chapters walk a technician through the full engine assembly as installed on the OH-6A and OH-58A airframes: the compressor, combustion, power turbine and accessory gearbox sections, plus the fuel, electrical and oil systems that keep the T63 running, with troubleshooting and testing procedures tying it all together.
Technical Data Included
The T63-A-5A / T63-A-700 engine maintenance manual documents the leading particulars technicians actually reference in the shop: engine dimensions of 40.4 inches length, 22.5 inches height and 19.0 inches width, a dry weight of 138.5 pounds for the T63-A-700, maximum oil consumption of 0.05 gal/hr, and approved lubricating oil specifications MIL-L-23699 or MIL-L-7808. Fuel specifications are listed for primary (MIL-T-5624 JP-4), alternate (MIL-T-5624 JP-5/JP-8/JET-A/JETA-1) and emergency (MIL-G-5572) fuels. Design power output is rated at 317 shp with a 335 shp ram power rating, and gas producer (N1), power turbine (N2) and power output shaft design speeds are all tabulated. A full performance ratings table covers takeoff, normal, 90% normal, 75% normal, start and idle, and flight autorotation conditions with shaft horsepower, net jet thrust, gas producer speed, output shaft rpm, specific fuel consumption, ram power rating torque and measured gas temperature limits for each.
Illustrations and Schematics
The manual is heavily illustrated with fold-out and full-page figures, including the T63-A-700 turboshaft engine overview, engine fuel and control system, fuel control system schematic, compressor assembly, power turbine section, combustion section, power and accessory gearbox, fuel pump and filter assembly, a two-sheet engine lubrication schematic, oil pump schematic, fuel nozzle, ignition system, anti-icing system, compressor bleed control valve and operation diagrams, shipping container stenciling and labeling, universal fittings, pressure oil tube and filtering screen, bleed valve operation, and idle/flight autorotation GFTOT limits — giving a technician a genuine visual reference alongside every written procedure.
Why Technicians Rely on This T63-A-5A / T63-A-700 Manual
This T63-A-5A / T63-A-700 Turboshaft Engine Maintenance Manual gives a technician the correct Army-published procedures for inspecting, troubleshooting, servicing and testing the T63 engine assembly rather than relying on guesswork. Because the manual documents official leading particulars, performance ratings, torque values, dimensional limits and a symptom index, following it helps avoid the costly mistakes that come from using outdated or incorrect specifications on a turboshaft engine. As an instant PDF download, this T63-A-5A / T63-A-700 manual is delivered immediately after purchase — no shipping, no waiting. It can be viewed on a phone, tablet, laptop or shop computer, and printed in whole or in relevant sections whenever a hard copy is more convenient at the workbench.
