This unit is designed to transport components to/from work and installation locations in a safe and secure manner. Unit offers a fiberglass cover which is water tight and secured in place on a metal fabricated base assembly. Document storage receptacle and view port included. Hoist rings (4) are built into the top of the fiberglass cover and are to be utilized in removal/installation of the cover. Interior structure consists of many segregated pockets or receptacle areas to facilitate safe and proper support of items. Fan Blades, Fan Blade Platforms, and Blades have designated storage pockets, each identified by sequential number. This will keep all components in a recognizable and immediately accessible removal and/or installation format. Special foam is incorporated in several areas of this container to help secure individual components as well as safe-guard and cushion these items.

The Fan Rotor Spinner is securely attached to a specially designed vertically supported Ring Mounting Plate. This mounting plate is removable (secured by two quick release ball-lock pins) from its storage support weldment location to help in the  installation/removal of the two spinner components. Both forward and aft sections of this component are to bolt securely onto the Ring Mounting Plate.

The 9C6025P02 (AGSE-E102-G02) Transport Stand is designed to:

1. Transport, tow and store the General Electric GE90-94B propulsor only, not full or RFI engines.
2. Transport, tow and store the General Electric GE90-115B series propulsor, full and RFI engines.

Recommended: the automatic air lift system (PPK) is recommended for your maintenance operation - 9C6025P02-PPK.

The stand consists of a base (AGSE-E107-G01) and an engine support structure, cradle (AGSE-E108-G02). The cradle separates from base for bootstrapping for engine change. The cradle may be raised or lowered to accommodate transport and or fan separate/mate requirements. Integral to the base are four (4) jacks for leveling, stabilizing and raising the stand to retract casters. The jacks are operated by manual hydraulic pump. Integral to the cradle is a hydraulic cable lift system operated by manual pump and/or optional air-operated hydraulic pump.

Configuration for Transportation and On-wing Installation and Removal of Engine:

Customers are recommended to select the complete set of tools to facilitate both transportation of full engine and installation/removal of engine from the wing.

1. 9C6025P02-PPK Split Engine System (includes option PPK)
2. 96C030PO1 Fan Module Dolly
3. 9C6028P01 Fan Blade Storage Container
4. 9C6031P01 Fan Components Container
5. 9C6003P01-PPK Fan Case/Fan Stator Shipping Stand (includes pneumatic pump kit (PPK) for faster AOG recovery)

The Boeing Bootstrap System will also be required. However, AGSE does not provide this system.

AGSE Bridge Type Gantry Systems have been designed specifically for the overhaul of aircraft engines. Each station (bay) consists of a double "I" beam load frame with a vertical travel of 48". The center beam of the load frame has two powered hoists of 3 ton capacity each. These hoists are mounted on their own power driven trolleys that enable the hoist to traverse the length of the load frame. The outboard beams of the load frame are equipped with 14 non-powered, 2 ton trolleys each.

AGSE Bridge Type Gantry Systems are available in Two Bay (AM-1653) (represented in this manual) and One Bay (AM-1697) configurations as well as the Three Bay (AM-1589) systems, all of
which may be expanded to an unlimited total number of bays to facilitate small and large engine overhaul/repair workshops.

All systems incorporate scissor type lift frame with screw jack lifting mechanism (four per bay), failsafe cylinders (two per bay), powered three ton hoists (two per bay), free-wheeling carriage trolleys
(14 per bay or as required), plus all safety features and operating mechanisms necessary for safe and efficient engine overhaul & work-stations. AGSE also offers required hanger tooling for engine
suspension during overhaul operations (must be specified at time of purchase).

There are 2 variants of the AM-2425: The AM-2425-A1 For CF6-80C2D1F, and PW4460/62 Engines Used on MD11 Aircraft and the AM-2425-E1 Air/Truck Shipping Stand is design to transport, and/or store the General Electric CF6-80E1 Engine.

The AM-2425-A1 Low Profile Air/Truck Shipping Stand is design to transport, and/or store the Pratt & Whitney PW4460/ 62 and the G.E. CF6-80C2D1F engines in modified QEC configuration. The stand is compliant with applicable Pratt & Whitney Specifications. The stand (with engine) is suitable for air transport on the main deck of B747, DC10, and MD11 Aircraft. Bootstrapping capabilities for the MD11 Aircraft have been incorporated into the stand. A document container is secured to the base for all manuals and documents.

The AM-2425-E1 Air/Truck Shipping Stand is design to transport, and/or store the General Electric CF6-80E1 Engine in modified QEC configuration. The stand is compliant with applicable GE Specifications. The stand (with engine) is suitable for air transport on the main deck of B747 and C130 Aircraft. Bootstrapping capabilities for A330 Aircraft have been incorporated into the stand.

The 9446M34P01 (AGSE-E196-G01) Engine Transport Stand is designed for truck transportation of the GEnx-1B and GEnx-2B propulsor only.

The AGSE-Y008-G01 Split Engine System is designed for remote site change out of General Electric CF6-80E1 engines in split configuration. The system is certified for air transport as an U.L.D. on A330-300 Aircraft (reference STC SA 9045NM-D). Three major components make up this totally self contained system, along with the relevant tools required for field assembly, disassembly, and shipment. Storage containers and restraint provisions are provided for all components. In split configuration, the complete kit is designed to occupy four pallet positions, and no single pallet will exceed floor loading specifications for the above aircraft.
Main components consists of:
Fan Shipping Fixture- The AGSE-C006-G01 Fan Shipping Fixture is designed specifically for air/truck shipment of the CF6-80E1 fan. The fixture is mounted on a 96" x 125" pallet, and is equipped with stowable shock mounts for truck shipping. Pallet mounted brackets with a spreader bar are included for fixture rotation between split/shipping positions. In the split position, the fixture rests on four adjustable leveling feet, and fan is in the upright position to mate with core.
Self-Erecting Gantry - The AM-1200-80-100 Self-Erecting Gantry is designed for complete major module removal and replacement operations. The gantry’s ease of use allows more flexibility for alignment as well as highly simplified alignment adjustments not inherent in rigid, floor mounted rail systems. This multi-purpose system can be used for individual module replacement in the field potentially eliminating the need to ship complete engines. The gantry shares the pallet with the AM-1965-E1-100 Light Weight Breakdown Stand and tooling storage container.
Core Shipping Stand - The AM-1963-E1-100 Core Shipping Stand is designed for handling engine in full Q.E.C. for engine bootstrapping, and the split core engine section. The aft end of core is secured by trunnion mounts. The forward end is fitted with a core locating ring, and secured by adjustable forward mount adapters.
Light Weight Breakdown Stand - The AM-1965-E1-100 Light Weight Breakdown Stand is designed for remote site handling of the failed engine for local transport between pylon and gantry. The engine is secured to the stand with forward and aft ground handling mounts. Bootstrapping capabilities are incorporated for A330-300 pylon. The stand is supported by four casters with swivel locks and face brakes. Tow bars are also included.
