Unsafe Condition
Separation of the hopper rinse tank shelf from the firewall, caused by damage and/or cracks in the attach angles, could result in failure of the attach angles. This failure could lead to shelf movement under maneuver load and shifting of the engine power cables, which could result in an uncommanded engine power setting change.

Required Actions
Visually inspect the three attach angles on the firewall mounted hopper rinse tank shelf for damage and/or cracks. Replace all three attach angles with steel attach angles, part number 60568-3 (or FAA-approved equivalent), if damage and/or cracks are found. Replacing the attach angles with steel attach angles terminates the repetitive inspection requirement.
