If the Hartzell propeller hub model on your airplane is HC-12X20-3, determine the counter weight length and position on the hub in order that the hub designation can be amended as necessary in accordance with the following:

(a) Plain counterweights 4.650 inches in length - the designation HC-12X20-3 is unchanged.

(b) Notched counterweight 4.50 inches in length - add suffix letter "C" to designation so that it reads HC-12X20-3C.

(c) Plain counterweight 4.50 inches in length - a 1/8-inch slug must be added to these counterweights and suffix letter "A" added to the hub designation so that it reads HC- 12X20-3A. Any of these hubs on which the slugs have not been added to the counterweights must be removed from service until the counterweight slugs are affixed.

Revise the reverse thrust operation placard as follows:
