| Subject: | MT prop Governor set screw |
ON the top of the MT governor is a set screw which allow the servo arm to b
e reoriented to the correct angle per different installations.
Seing that MT is a German company=2C I thought that the set screw was a met
ric allen wrench. I appears that non of the metric allen wrenches I purchas
ed are of the correct size. Also=2C by chance I thought that it might be a
star drive and it isn't that either=2C at least not in standard sizes.
Does anyone know what tool will losen this set screw and is the set screw s
tandard clockwise rotation for tightening and counterclockwise for loosenin
g.??
Thanks=2C

I believe you are asking about a plug in the top of the governor unit. A f
lush fitting requiring an allen wrench to remove?
A fitting can be installed at this location to attach an accumulator to the
inlet side of the governor.
During zero "G" maneuvers, prolonged vertical maneuvers, or whenever oil pr
essure is lost, the accumulator will provide the required inlet pressure to
the governor so the propeller functions properly (for perhaps 10 seconds.)

Hi John,
I should have mention that the plug is a standard pipe thread plug, and not
metric. A standard AN fitting is used to go from the pipe thread to a fla
re tube end.
Unless you are installing an accumulator, there shouldn't be any need to re
move this plug.
