The following document contains references to the CFM56-5C Engine Shop Manual, A340 Aircraft
Maintenance Manual, CFM Services Bulletins, Components Maintenance Manuals, Commercial
Engine Service Memorandums, Component and Assembly Part Numbers and other CFM
documentation.
Any recommendations, limits, thresholds, etc referenced in this, or any other CFM documentation,
were developed assuming that the engine, module or component is of original CFM design and has
been maintained in accordance with CFM approved documentation and recommendations.
The guidance provided in this document does not address parts nor repairs supplied by third-party
sources which have not been approved by CFM.
Introduction
The recommendations contained within this Workscope Planning Guide are not intended to alter the
“on-condition” maintenance concept of the CFM56-5C engine, but to optimize the maintenance
performed during each shop visit. These recommendations are directed towards improving EGT
outbound performance margins, as well as the reliability of the engine. These are
RECOMMENDATIONS ONLY, and should not be interpreted as requirements in addition to those
currently applicable per the Operator’s Approved Maintenance Plan.
Controls & Accessories threshold recommendations are guidelines to be used to plan maintenance
actions and have been established using combined knowledge of overhaul CFM56-5C fleet and the
specific operator’s fleet experience and needs. The threshold recommendations provided in this
Workscope Planing Guide ARE NOT TIME LIMITS.
The Workscope Planning Guide is not a replacement for any customer, government, or CFM controlled
publication, including the CFM56-5C engine shop manuals, component maintenance manuals, service
bulletins, etc. This document DOES NOT REFLECT any additional airworthiness requirements other
than those currently applicable per the OPERATOR’S APPROVED MAINTENANCE PLAN. This
Workscope Planning Guide is intended to highlight and consolidate the major features of the engine
technical publications into a workable engine management tool with the goal of improving the engine
time between shop visits, reducing maintenance costs, while maintaining the reliability of the CFM56-
5C engine in service. The responsibility for the production and the assurance of the quality of the
engine/modules produced using this guide are that of the customer.
Updated recommendations introduced in this revision are highlighted with a grey back.
This is supposed to help Customers to focus on new recommendations versus those already
introduced in the previous revision.
The CFM56-5C engine is used to power the A-340 model of the Airbus Industries aircraft. The hereunder
table lists takeoff thrust, flat rated temperature at standard day conditions, and the EGT red line of the
various CFM56-5C models.
The on-condition maintenance concept requires that the installed engine be trend monitored and
inspected on a regular basis to determine the optimum time for removal and overhaul. Procedures and
limits for inspecting the installed engine are in the Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM). Also,
procedures for inspecting installed engines for specific conditions may be provided in Service Bulletins
(SB).
The goal of on-condition maintenance is to maximise the time/cycles an engine can be operated
between shop visits. Several factors influence the time between overhaul including: the type and extent
of the Workscope at the previous overhaul, the engine operating procedures, the environment in which
the engine is operated, and the engine type and thrust rating of the engine. Controlling the type and the
extent of the Workscope at overhaul is the area where the operator is best able to influence and
optimise the time / cycles between overhaul. The time/cycles between overhaul is optimised by
ensuring that all hardware meets integrity standards provided in the ESM and Service Bulletins, and by
emphasising performance restoration procedures during the overhaul of an engine.
Several benefits, such as reduced number of shop visits, optimum fuel consumption, can be derived for
the operator by ensuring the integrity standards of the hardware and emphasising performance
restoration procedures during engine overhaul.
This Workscope Planning Guide is organised in chapters by Major Module and External Hardware.
For each Major Module, recommendations are provided for three categories of workscope : Minimum,
Performance and Full Overhaul).
Each module chapter includes the following :
The correct workscope level to apply on an engine Major Module has to be determined based on the
Engine Removal Cause, on the Module visual/borescope inspection, on the Module accumulated Hours
and Cycles and on the Engine Life Customer Management.
Each Major Module is to be repaired per its own appropriate workscope level.
The recommendations for Controls and Accessories are organised in one section of the Guide with
both Minimum and Full Overhaul Workscope levels mixed together.
Engines which enter into the shop for a well known cause, with low time since last overhaul, and with
sufficient performance margins, can be overhauled per this level of workscope.
This level highlights preventive maintenance actions and helps to identify if additional inspections or
parts repair are required.
Experience shows that it is not cost-effective to refurbish the Fan/Booster and LPT unless they are being
disassembled for cause : a minimum workscope is usually performed on these two Major Modules during
an engine performance restoration.
3 Engines with low in-service performance prior to removal (EGTM < 20 °C or OATL< 35,4 °C)
3 Engines which have accumulated more than 8,000 hrs since last shop visit (if performance margin
unknown)
A table of derivatives to assess the performance effect of used engine hardware is provided in this
chapter.
Typical rub depths and clearances after test cell acceptance test (i.e. seal break-in and performance
run) for new engines or refurbished following the performance restoration Workscope engines, are
provided. The corresponding derivatives are used during a Performance Part Component
Assessment (PCA) to assess the performance effects for changes beyond these “post break-in”
values.
Note : these derivatives or also called “influence coefficients” have been updated on all HP
components (see heads of module chapters).
A cost effective restoration can be determined based on the actual hardware deterioration
assessment.
Common EGT margin improvements are usually presented for high deteriorated modules.
For example, HPT module refurbishment may provide with 20°C of EGT margin improvement only
when the hardware inspection is showing high deterioration (check clearances as also nozzles &
blades surface condition).
This Workscope level applies when the module needs to be disassembled for:
3 LLP cause
At this time, all priority Service Bulletins should be complied to and customer option Service
Bulletins evaluated.
Also, it may prove cost- effective to replace LLP, although cycles remain in their life.
CFM encourages all operators to work with their overhaul shops and participate in the workscope
definition process to maximize the potential restored EGT margin. CFM's Focus Team will continue to
explore other avenues to maximize restored performance on the CFM56-5C engine and will update
these recommendations with any new developments.
Minimum : All engines receiving a performance restoration workscope should include these workscope
items Enhanced : All items in this category should be included in addition to the minimum workscope
for optimized results On Condition : These items are only recommended if the module is exposed or
does not meet serviceability requirements
Note: This summary is intended to provide an overview of the workscope items that impact restored
engine performance. It is not intended to replace the Engine Shop Manual (ESM) or Workscope
Planning Guide (WPG). The ESM and WPG should continue to be used along with other
requirements such as Service Bulletin compliance to formulate a complete shop visit workscope.

Vibration levels at Test Blade tip and seal clearances are sensitive to vibrations. Careful
attention should be given to vibration levels to prevent taking
excessive rubs.
Core Seizures at Test Do not start an engine with starter if core rotor is seized. If
core rotor is seized, do not attempt to start engine until the core
rotor turns freely by hand. Attempts to turn a seized rotor using
the starter can cause heavy seal rubs.
Rotor Balance Special attention should be given to rotor balance requirements.
Achieving tighter limits will help optimize engine build and can
improve engine performance.
Life management
Refer to Shop Manual Section 05-11-00 through 05-11-04 for the latest rotating part lives.
The operator should establish minimum remaining life goals (i.e. stub life) for each of the modules
depending on his operational requirements.
At the end of the WPG, some Investigation Workscopes provide some guidelines for
troubleshooting on engines which have experienced HIGH EGT, OIL SMELL IN CABIN, HIGH
OIL CONSUMPTION HIGH N2 VIBRATION or ENGINE CONVERSION.
CFM Product Support Engineering can provide any other specific Investigation Workscope per
Customer request.
Please note that all Shop Finding Reports are much appreciated to improve/update these
Workscopes.
The Shop Visit Data Sheet, as defined within the Focus Sub-Team is also a very useful document
which helps all overhaul shops to improve their engine workscopes and their own practises as well.
CFM would like the WPG be considered as a document widely used and shared between all
Customers.
So, all comments and proposals, from every Customers, which will help to complete and improve
the WPG are welcome and will be taken into account when updating the document every year.
Service Bulletin
In order to assist operators in the determination of the important Service Bulletins to be considered
during shop visits, lists have been developed for each module and included in the corresponding
chapters. Although, all these Service Bulletins and the customer option or spare part release Service
Bulletins are not shown on these lists, they should also be reviewed on from the complete listing in
the last chapter of the Guide for applicability.

Experience shows that the Mean Time Between Shop Visit has increased over the years, due to
Workscoping and Shop process improvements.
As of today, - 5C engine shop visits, post second run, are mainly driven by Performance and HPT
Blades.
The Workscope Planning Guide provides updated recommendations to improve both engine
Performance and Durability, including the proposals from the Wks & Perf. dedicated FOCUS
TEAM.
During such shop visits, all engines Core modules should be disassembled, cleaned, inspected and
overhauled in order to achieve an optimized restored performance level and thus a MTBSV close
to Customers expectations.
LP Modules can also been exposed for flowpath refurbishment but with a lower expected impact
on the restored EGT margin.
To assist the operator in the determination of the important Service Bulletins and Commercial Engine
Service Memorandum to consider at a shop visit, condensed lists which highlights the Service Bulletins to
be incorporated on an accelerated basis have been developed and included for each modules in its
corresponding chapter. It is not all inclusive, reference should be made to the complete Service Bulletin
list for recommendations on each Bulletin.
These Service Bulletins and Commercial Engine Service Memorandum have been sorted in five
categories to show their impact in terms of Durability (letter D), Performance (letter P) and / or Reliability
(letter R) and to highlight some of the Inspection (letter I) Service Bulletins. The last category is for
Others (letter O) Service Bulletins including either those providing some Additional Improvements (letter
AI) or those mentioned for Information (Info) purpose.
Furthermore, in order to show their applicability to the multiple engine configurations, the Service
Bulletins and Commercial Engine Service Memorandum are sorted to indicate those in which apply to
“All” CFM56-5C engines, just classic 2D airfoil aero engines (letter “C”), and just performance improved
3D airfoil aero engines (letter “P”).

ENGINE MODULES INSPECTIONS
ESM provides a list of visual and dimensional inspections to be performed
at piece part level, for engines which have experienced EGT 72-00-00
overtemperature. Inspection
See next page the typical Summary that needs to be filled with all the
requested measurements in order to assess the performance deterioration
through the hardware condition.

Workscope Guidelines for Investigation of Engines Removed for High Oil Consumption
Reference
At this level of investigation, it is assumed that the AMM troubleshooting
procedure has been unsucessfull.
INBOUND TEST
• Do an Acceptance Test 02, as well as a Performance Test 03.
• During the slow accel/decel run, record the engine vibration signature,
confirm the N2 speed and the level in Ips.
Low speed vibrations, between 65% N2 (9400 rd/min) and 80% N2 (11460
rd/min) are indicative of HPC UNBALANCE.
Whereas high speed vibrations, above 97% (14000 rd/min) are indicative of
HPT UNBALANCE.
1 - HPC INVESTIGATIONS
• If vibrations occur at low speed, but with a non repetitive level, CFMI
recommend to check the N° 3 Bearing Locking Nut torque, which may
be lower than the ESM minimum value (1220-1492 Nm).
• This torque correction may be not sufficient to lower the vibration level.
• The following inspections are highly recommended :
1. Check the HPC Casing to Fan Frame attachment bolt torque value.
2. Check the HPC Blades condition 72-31-00
3. Check & record the HPC Rotor unbalance and correct if necessary Assembly
4. Check the CDP Seal bore runout per ESM 72-00-02 before the HPT
module removal.
5. Check all HPC/HPT flanges for any broken, missing or loose bolts
Reference
If HPC balance can not be achieved, several deeper inspections are
requested as described below :
During the module disassembly, check for the presence of oil or dust and
report.
1. Check the concentricity of Stg 1-2 Spool (R01A) at approximatively 0,5
inch (13 mm) forward of the most forward seal tooth.
2. Check the runout of the CDP Seal rabbet diameter and mating face
(R07/R08).
3. Record and remove the CDP Seal.
4. Check the part for wear of failure.
5. Perform a dimensional inspection of diameter B.
6. Check the flatness and concentricity of the Stg 4-9 Spool aft Flange face
and rabbet (R05/R06).
7. Record and then remove the St 4-9 Spool.
8. Check the flatness and concentricity of the Stg 3 Disk aft Flange face
and rabbet (R03/R04).
9. Record and then remove the Stg 3 Disk.
10. Check the flatness and concentricity of the Forward Shaft aft Flange
face and rabbet (R01/R02).
11. Check the dampening ring in Stg 1-2 Spool.
12. Check and record the static balance of the Stg 1-2 Spool.
13. Balance if necessary.
Check and record the static balance of Stg 3 Disk.Balance if necessary.
Reference
HPC ROTOR
Reference
1 - HPT INVESTIGATIONS
1. Dimensional, inspect the HPT Rotor (stack-up purpose).
2. Check the HPT Damper Sleeve condition
3. Check and record the HPT Rotor unbalance.
4. Balance if necessary.
During the HPT Front Shaft to HPC Rear Shaft assembly, respect carefully
the ESM recommendations concerning both face cleanliness, as well as the
thermal sequence.
Check the rotating CDP Seal runout.
Also, when assembling the HPT Rotor Disk and the HPT Front Rotating 72-00-02
Seal, it is important to check that each mating surface is free of burr, high
metal or dirt. 72-52-00
Reference
• Make a runout of the HPT rotor disk and the Front Rotating Seal
assembly flange rabbet and the mounting face. 72-52-00
• The forward flange face must be perpendicular within 0.002 in. (0,05
mm) FIR.
• The HPT rotor disk flange rabbet must be concentric within 0.002 in.
(0,05 mm) FIR.
Note : If the runout measurement is not correct, the Front Rotating Seal can
be turned 180 degrees and installed again.
• During the assembly of the Forward HPT Shaft with the HPT Front
Rotating Seal respect the thermal sequence described in ESM, and clean
the Seal mating face.
• Take care as well when assembling the HPT Rear Shaft on the HPT
Disk.
• Make a runout measurement of the HPT rotor disk aft flange OD and the
mounting face.
• Make sure the flange face is perpendicular to 0.002 inch (0,05 mm).
• Make sure the shoulder OD is concentric to 0.002 inch (0,05 mm).
• Respect the heating sequence during assembly.
Reference
INBOUND TEST
• After an Inbound test, it is recommended to preserve the engine per the 72-00-00
ESM 72-00-00 Storage/30-365 days Preservation. Testing 002- 003
HPTCC Valve
CESM N° 015
Check HPTCC valve is reworked by SB 75-0059.
N° 4 BEARING SCREENING
• During the engine outbound test, monitor the N°4 vibration response
with the dedicated tooling P/N 856A2679G01, to detect potential outer
race distress.
1. During the Break-in procedure (before the Vibration Survey), do not run
the engine above the following limits :
LP vibration : 4,5 mils DA on transient sequences 6,0 mils DA on
steady-state HP vibration : 1,6 ips
2. Prior to shutdown, cool down the engine 5 min at approach idle and 5
min at ground idle or 10 min at ground idle.
As soon as the engine N2 speed is below 200 rd/min, perform two dry
motoring of 2 min each.
3. If the engine is restarted after less than 8 hrs since previous shutdown
(engine considered as still warm), pay attention to high N2 vibration or
potential core seize and if needed abort the starting procedure to prevent
high seal teeth penetration in stationary honeycomb lands.
4. Avoid quick acceleration when the engine is warm, less than 10 min
after a quick deceleration to idle.
72-00-00
ENGINE WITH HPC BLADE TIP NOTCHES Testing 002- 003
• During the final borescope inspection, check and report the blade tip
notches condition (if notches have been ground during the HPC
overhaul).
• If the HPC rotor has been ground to ESM min reference clearances,
these clearances should not be more than 5 mils wider after the break-in
procedure.
CESM N° 015
• Blade Tip Notches help to assess the final clearance status before the
engine delivery (refer to Best Practises summary in Introduction
chapter). 72-00-02
• Refer to the special grinding procedure provided by the Focus Team.
As a result of efforts from the Workscoping Focus Sub-Team, the workscope adders found in the Engine
Shop Manual section 72-00-00 Testing 003 have been modified. Workscope adders are used to adjust the
test cell EGT margin to reflect the expected EGT margin on wing. The adjustments are made to account
for differences in initial on-wing installation break-in losses resulting from the level of restoration
performed.
The Focus Sub-Team discovered differences in the way adders are applied at the various overhaul shops.
This is mainly due to the vagueness of the corresponding workscope descriptions in the current manual.
The workscope descriptions pertaining to various adders have been revised to more consistently reflect
the workscope practices followed at various overhaul shops. The team developed more detailed
descriptions for these adders in the Shop Manual.
These agreed-upon changes will be available in the next revisions of the Shop Manual, and are listed
below:
